| This is an iHeart podcast. | |
| All right. | |
| Thanks, Scott Shannon. | |
| Hour two, Sean Hannity Show, toll-free. | |
| It's 800-941. | |
| Sean, if you want to be a part of the program, we now have 20 Biden administration attorneys are pressuring Biden to cut off all aid to Israel. | |
| We saw the State Department yesterday talking about and Democrats talking about invoking the Leahy Act, which would in fact prevent the IDF from getting any help or any support from the administration. | |
| The administration is accusing Israel of committing, quote, gross violations of human rights. | |
| You have this ICC court, like a Hague court that wants to label Benjamin Netanyahu the victim of a terrorist attack, wants to label him a war criminal. | |
| Then, of course, you have these lunatic students all over the country and, frankly, administrations with no clue at all whatsoever what to do about it. | |
| You have Colombia's pro-Hamas insurrectionists now taking, you know, people barricading themselves inside the university's building. | |
| Nobody's listening to the administration at all. | |
| The people that are negotiating, we went through some of their backgrounds. | |
| They're as radical as can be, tenured professors that were celebrating October 7th and the terror attacks there. | |
| Anyway, here to weigh in on this, and we're only 188 days away from Election Day as former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich. | |
| I don't think the world's been this nuts in our lifetime. | |
| No, I agree. | |
| I do want to point out, by the way, we're actually much closer to the first days of voting. | |
| It's amazing how fast we're going to get to some of the states starting to vote in early and mid-September. | |
| So people need to realize this thing's coming down the road like a freight train. | |
| I think this is one of the great values clarification tests in American history. | |
| You know, we had one at the Civil War when they had to decide would the union survive and would it be free? | |
| We had one in the late 1960s. | |
| People forget, you know, Governor Ronald Reagan took on the students at Berkeley and at Santa Barbara and elsewhere and was very tough. | |
| Sent in the police, sent in the National Guard, made it very clear that the rule of law was going to apply. | |
| You had an entire period there where you had, at one point, we had 2,500 bombings in the United States in the late 60s. | |
| And Nixon came along and said there is a silent majority. | |
| That silent majority voted overwhelmingly, and the country got its act back together. | |
| We're in a very similar values clarification moment. | |
| Are we really a country that accepts terrorism? | |
| I don't think so. | |
| Well, the way I've been saying it is Joe Biden, I mean, let's go back to the beginning here. | |
| He has placated Iran. | |
| He not only turned a blind eye to sanctions, preventing them from selling oil on the world markets, starting in March of 2021, the U.S. under Joe Biden started importing oil from Iran. | |
| They waived the sanctions and allowed Iraq to give them $10 billion. | |
| They were willing to transfer $6 billion in a ransom payment. | |
| They've allowed the Mullahs of Iran to get rich again. | |
| The Mullahs now are pursuing nuclear weapons with a vengeance, according to the IAEA and other international organizations. | |
| China, no consequences for them. | |
| Spy balloons, hostile maneuverings in international airwaves against international airspace against our very own fighter jets going against our Navy, international waters. | |
| They have hostile maneuverings of their Navy against our Navy. | |
| Forget about COVID, forget about spy balloons, forget about intellectual property theft and unfair trade practices. | |
| And of course, he shuts down the Keystone exile pipeline, but gives a waiver to Vladimir Putin. | |
| How does any of this make any sense to you? | |
| Well, if you just say to yourself, these are people who dislike America. | |
| They want America to be weaker and less capable. | |
| They dislike our history. | |
| They dislike the heroic figures who created us. | |
| They see us as a racist, xenophobic, homophobic society, and therefore weakening us and tearing us down is good. | |
| Remember, the person that they had negotiating with Iran was a guy named Rob Malley, who in effect was on the Iranian side. | |
| So you had an Iranian sympathizer negotiating with Iran over nuclear weapons. | |
| And we know that Malley ultimately lost his security clearance because he was so close to the Iranians. | |
| This is an administration riddled with people who despise America and who want to change America radically. | |
| And you see, in a sense, the college campuses are now a reflection of 40 or 50 years of getting sicker and sicker and sicker. | |
| And sooner, you know, when you see the American flag taken down and the Palestinian flag going up, you have to ask yourself, why are we sending one penny to that campus of taxpayer money? | |
| And by the way, when students start saying that they want us to cut off all funding, any institution which is doing business with Israel should be cut off, they ought to remember that the U.S. government does a lot of business with Israel. | |
| So does that mean they're going to give up their student loans? | |
| They're going to give up the money going to the university. | |
| I mean, all of a sudden, you're going to see them go, well, maybe I didn't quite mean that. | |
| But I watch what's going on in the campuses, and I think we have to be prepared to stand up for freedom, and we have to be prepared to stand up for law and order. | |
| And we can't back down. | |
| And Colombia is exactly as it was in 1968. | |
| They had the building occupied in 1968. | |
| They had a professor's life work destroyed by a group of vandals. | |
| And you're seeing an exact repeat of what happened in 1968. | |
| Well, we could play Reagan here because I think Reagan hit the nail on the head back then. | |
| And I think you're right. | |
| I think there are a lot of parallels. | |
| The only difference is we don't have strong leadership. | |
| Here's Reagan. | |
| Those people told you for days in advance that if the university sought to go ahead with that construction, they were going to physically destroy the university. | |
| Now, why did you negotiate many times? | |
| Negotiate? | |
| What is to negotiate? | |
| What is the university is a public institution? | |
| That's right. | |
| But the university, its own community, and for the community of Berkeley that live around it. | |
| All of it began the first time some of you who know better and are old enough to know better let young people think that they had the right to choose the laws they would obey as long as they were doing it in the name of social protest. | |
| I'm sick and tired of the argument about whether some effort to enforce law and order is going to escalate anything at all. | |
| Plain truth of the matter is this has to stop and it has to stop like the day before yesterday. | |
| I would like to propose that the issue is that on the campuses you, who are adults, you who are entrusted with those young people and their guides, have a responsibility to make it plain to them from the very beginning that you yourselves do not tolerate the kind of conduct that has led to the burning of Wheeler Hall, that has led to two murders on the campus of UCLA. | |
| You've created an atmosphere on the campus where no one wants to listen. | |
| You are a liar. | |
| I mean, Reagan was dead on accurate. | |
| Now, let me ask you this. | |
| I know that's a snapshot. | |
| I know we're only 188 days away, and you're right. | |
| Early voting will start probably, I don't know, maybe in August. | |
| I mean, that's how insane we've gotten with voting laws in this country, but it'll be here soon enough. | |
| As we look at the polls, I mean, it's pretty interesting because every poll that I'm going to refer to has been taken while Donald Trump is in a courtroom in New York City over an eight-year-old case with a judge that donated to Joe Biden on what was a misdemeanor count whose statute of limitations had run out, whose judge's family, according to reports, may very well benefit a lot financially from this. | |
| And of course, nobody bats an eyelash. | |
| There's a gag order against Donald Trump and allegations that other witnesses are making money on TikTok and live streams. | |
| But with all of that said, last week we had the Bloomberg Morning Console poll, Trump winning significantly in six or seven swing states. | |
| CNN has a poll out. | |
| Now Trump has a six-point lead. | |
| When you throw in third-party candidate, he jumps to nine points in the poll. | |
| That same CNN poll, 66% of voters disapprove of Biden's handling of the economy. | |
| A CBS poll from three battleground states shows that a large plurality of Americans now believe they'd be better off financially if Trump wins in November. | |
| Michigan, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, a majority, overwhelming majority of voters believe the economy was better under Trump. | |
| Most believe the economy has gotten worse since the end of the pandemic. | |
| And, you know, you just put all of these together, a Harvard-Harris poll finding that Trump is leading nationwide in a head-to-head matchup with Biden and a three-way matchup if you include RFK Jr. | |
| And 57% of Americans in that poll are, quote, believe that the Democrats are using the legal system in biased ways to take out Donald Trump. | |
| And 64% indicated Biden's cognitive decline is getting worse every day. | |
| I mean, tell me how that guy gets re-elected with those numbers with 188 days to go and wide open borders on top of it. | |
| Look, they have two hopes. | |
| One is they hope to somehow lock Trump up. | |
| And the current judge who's totally corrupt, and you're right, I've written about the fact that his daughter has made millions out of attacking Donald Trump for the Democrats. | |
| This judge is a disgrace. | |
| He shouldn't be on the bench. | |
| And I think that it is a very grave weakness. | |
| And I frankly worry to have a judge who's this corrupt and who currently has the ability to cause Trump a great deal of pain. | |
| Well, he threatened to put Trump in jail if he violates a gag order that only applies to him and no other individual involved in the case. | |
| And I'm anticipating a guilty verdict, Mr. Speaker. | |
| I don't think he can get a fair trial in New York in this venue. | |
| Well, I think he might get a fair trial with a fair judge, but with this judge and the way he's rigged the entire argument, which is an absurdity, there is no case. | |
| There is no crime. | |
| It is absolutely ridiculous. | |
| It's absolutely ridiculous. | |
| They literally can't define a crime. | |
| So what they're trying to do is paint a word picture and basically say Trump bad, therefore vote yes. | |
| He's guilty. | |
| But they don't have any crime he's committed. | |
| And it's just, it's utterly insane and a grave danger to our system. | |
| But I'll tell you what's an equally grave danger. | |
| There's an executive order from Biden for the federal government to supervise the election. | |
| There are places now working, like New York City and D.C., to have illegal immigrants vote. | |
| In D.C., the Board of Elections said that illegals could vote in local elections. | |
| They made the proposal in New York. | |
| It was stopped by a court, but they're trying. | |
| Right. | |
| And I think we need to recognize that in the states that do not require some kind of photo ID, you're going to see an all-out effort to vote people who are not legally in the United States, and that's the last stand of the left-wing Democratic Party. | |
| And if they succeed, then what? | |
| The country's gone? | |
| Well, I think then the America, as you've known it, is basically gone. | |
| I think this is the most critical election since 1860. | |
| I think that if the left, after all the damage they've done, if they can stay in power, I don't understand how we're going to recover. | |
| Let me ask you how Republicans need to deal with the issue of abortion. | |
| And I've gotten a lot of heat for saying that Republicans better understand where the country is on this issue, not where you stand personally. | |
| And I make a difference between where you stand personally. | |
| For example, I support an organization, preborn.com/slash Hannity, where they're doing incredible work changing hearts by introducing expecting moms to the miracle of life within them. | |
| Okay, I think that's the way to go. | |
| That's the best approach. | |
| But the country, if you ask me where the country is politically, it's first trimester or Dobbs 15 weeks. | |
| And I think anything less than that is going to be demagogued to death. | |
| And I would argue that that's probably the main reason that the red wave never occurred in 22. | |
| Well, and I think you also have to include exceptions for rape, incest, and life of the mother. | |
| Of course. | |
| You're right. | |
| I mean, my view is that people who are pro-life should be for the law which saves the maximum number of babies, not the fantasy that'll never be enacted. | |
| And that's why I think, frankly, where President Trump is, is pretty right. | |
| You allow each state to make its decisions. | |
| Those states have to respond to the individuals. | |
| And I think that that is, they've got to be sensitive to their own district. | |
| It'll be different in New York than it will be in Idaho. | |
| But that's where America is right now. | |
| All right. | |
| Former Speaker of the House. | |

| Thank you for your patience. | |
| Our toll-free numbers 800-941-Sean, if you'd like to join us, we'll also get reaction at the top of the next hour. | |
| Vivek Ramaswamy will join us. | |
| You know, if you've ever wondered, you know, how the Holocaust happened, just take a look at what's being said on college campuses. | |
| Look at the tenured professors on college campuses celebrating openly what happened on October the 7th. | |
| You know, we'll get Vivek Ramaswamy's take on all of this and how this should be handled and how it's not being handled properly and much, much more. | |
| Breaking news all afternoon. | |
| When you get off work, be sure to check in first for everything you miss during the day. | |
| This is the Sean Hannity Show. | |
| 25 to the top of the hour. | |
| Your call's coming up, 800-941-Sean, if you want to be a part of the program. | |
| Now, it's over six months since the worst terrorist attack in Israel's history. | |
| And sadly, this president has pretty much abandoned the war on terrorism. | |
| And rather than helping Israel or just offering moral support for them to win their war against radical Islamic terrorists, Joe Biden has stabbed him in the back. | |
| It's sad. | |
| It's pathetic. | |
| And it's a dangerous message he's sending the world. | |
| But while this has all been going on, the people of Israel are in dire straits. | |
| You have hundreds of thousands of them displaced. | |
| And that's where the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews have come in. | |
| They're on the ground. | |
| They are addressing all of the needs of any person that is in need of medicine, food, shelter, help of any kind. | |
| They're doing anything and everything. | |
| They can only do it with your life-saving donation. | |
| They're also building out bomb shelters in areas in Israel that need it the most. | |
| For, God forbid, if a siren goes off, you know, people have 15 seconds or less to get to safety. | |
| They have 20 people that can fit inside each mobile bomb shelter that they're constructing. | |
| They're built to withstand any rocket attack. | |
| It meets the standards by the IDF, and they are renovating and installing nearly 3,000 of them. | |
| The cost of one bomb shelter is 15 grand. | |
| The goal for April is five bomb shelters. | |
| If we could find 300 of you out there that could give 50 bucks, well, that will be another bomb shelter that will likely save lives. | |
| If you can increase your generosity $500 or more, your name is going to be included on a special plaque that is placed on that bomb shelter. | |
| And whatever you can donate for the people that are displaced for the bomb shelters, please go to their website. | |
| It's one word, supportifcj.org. | |
| They're wonderful people. | |
| They're volunteering. | |
| They're working around the clock. | |
| One word, supportifcj.org today. | |
| By the way, Jonathan Turley did address the fact that Donald Trump was fined and then threatened with jail today for violating a gag order. | |
| And then we're hearing that other participants in this case may be actually making money or profiting. | |
| We've not been able to confirm it. | |
| But accusations that they may be making money by giving online comments every day about the trial. | |
| Well, why isn't there a gag order on everybody in the case? | |
| Anyway, here's Jonathan Turley. | |
| Yeah, it's basically what we expected. | |
| They weren't asking for jail time. | |
| The threat is lingering out there. | |
| The judge wanted to put this Domakley sword dangling over his head. | |
| It's there, and the thread's getting thinner. | |
| And that's basically what the judge is saying. | |
| Unfortunately, I don't think the judge has re-examined his order. | |
| I think it's poorly written, and I also think it's way too broad. | |
| And the inclusion of Michael Cohen in that order is absurd. | |
| I mean, you have someone who is making money campaigning against Trump and attacking him on this trial, and the judge is letting him speak, but not for the president to respond. | |
| I mean, this case just reeks of what it is, and that is you have a judge that donates to Biden in 2020. | |
| You have a judge whose family is likely compromised in a massive way based on what the outcome in this case is going to be. | |
| You have a venue that is never going to be fair to Donald Trump. | |
| I mean, a city that is, you know, nine out of 10 people are registered Democrats. | |
| It's unbelievable. | |
| On top of that, you're dealing with an eight-year-old bookkeeping error, which is really in New York. | |
| It's only a misdemeanor. | |
| You know, the judge should have recused himself, didn't recuse himself. | |
| And we still don't even know the legal theory behind the entire case, how it is that Alvin Bragg is using federal election laws to charge Donald Trump with a bookkeeping error. | |
| That's all it is. | |
| And, you know, even if they made it a campaign expense, you know, there's all sorts of reasons that people might want to have a nondisclosure agreement, maybe just to prevent his family from seeing it. | |
| Let's start there. | |
| Does anybody really know the motivation of anybody? | |
| That would not be a crime. | |
| And just how you characterize it on the bookkeeping, okay, Donald Trump doesn't do his own bookkeeping. | |
| Anyway, the whole thing is just sickening, and it shows of this two-tiered system of justice we have. | |
| Let's get to our busy phones. | |
| Let's say hi to Lisa is in Iowa. | |
| Lisa, hi, how are you? | |
| Glad you called the vape Ramaswamy at the top of the hour. | |
| Glad you called, though. | |
| Lisa, how are you? | |
| I'm great. | |
| How are you, Sean? | |
| Good. | |
| What's happening? | |
| So I'm a California transplant, proud to be in Iowa now. | |
| So I just wanted to bring up a couple of points. | |
| My first one is my understanding, Steven Spielberg is going to be helping President Biden with the DNC filming some commercials. | |
| And he's Jewish, and I just find that so appalling that he, here he filmed Schindler's List and other movies, and he's, I mean, how can he be doing that, not supporting Israel? | |
| I really have no idea. | |
| I'll tell you, one of the greatest movies about the Holocaust, in my view, was Schindler's List. | |
| I mean, if you've not watched that movie, I'm telling you, it'll move your heart. | |
| And it's based on a true story. | |
| And there were good people. | |
| Liam Neeson is the star in this movie. | |
| And he does everything humanly possible to save the lives of Jewish people in Germany during Nazi Germany and risked his life the whole time doing it. | |
| Anyway, you'd have to ask him because it makes no sense to me because as far as I'm concerned, this is what the world now looks like when Joe Biden abandons any understanding of what a war on radical terrorism is. | |
| This is what happens when an American president abdicates his role as the leader of the free world. | |
| This is what the chaos that the world descends into. | |
| And at a point in time, you know, to watch the likes of Chuck Schumer, I believe Chuck Schumer's Jewish. | |
| And for him in the middle of Israel's war for survival to be calling for elections, for the United States to be sanctioning the IDF for fighting back against the radical Islamists that attacked them, that killed what would be the equivalent of 40,000 Americans in a day. | |
| It'd be the equivalent of 8,000 Americans taken hostage off of American soil. | |
| I mean, how would you expect your government to respond? | |
| If it's Joe Biden, I guess we would have no response, you know, because all he's been doing is pressuring Israel to surrender and to go into, you know, ceasefire. | |
| No, the message should be clear and unambiguous. | |
| Go defeat the radical terrorists that have been firing tens and tens and tens of thousands of rockets into your country and that are responsible for killing 1,200 people and taking hundreds of others hostage. | |
| Go win your war. | |
| You have our full support. | |
| I'm not saying put boots on the ground. | |
| They're not asking for that. | |
| But certainly you should have the moral clarity here. | |
| This is simple right and wrong. | |
| And I've listened to even people that claim to be conservative, and I find some of their comments just repulsive also. | |
| They have no understanding that this is good versus evil here. | |
| And those that believe in convert or die, or those that would be responsible for murder and rape and beheading and burning of human beings in a surprise terrorist attack, they'll be on the side of evil. | |
| And those people that are fighting to defend their country and the very survival of their country have every right to do so. | |
| And we should be supporting them. | |
| What's happened to this country's moral compass under Joe Biden? | |
| Anyway, I appreciate the call, Lisa. | |
| Hope you enjoy Iowa. | |
| It's a little chilly there in the winter. | |
| We were there this past winter. | |
| Let's go to Alabama. | |
| Ted is next on the Sean Hannity show. | |
| Hi. | |
| Hey, Sean, greetings from the great state of Alabama. | |
| What's going on, man? | |
| Where in Alabama are you from? | |
| I am in Gardendale, Alabama, just a few miles north of Birmingham. | |
| No, know the area well. | |
| What's going on? | |
| Yesterday you were talking about early voting and how conservatives are going to have to match the efforts of radicals in the early voting and ballot harvesting, et cetera, and all that. | |
| Okay. | |
| And a lot of people are speculating that Biden is not going to make it to the election or may withdraw or whatever. | |
| He may not be available for whatever reason. | |
| So what happens to any of those early votes that are cast for Biden in the event that he withdraws? | |
| Will they become null and void? | |
| Because his name would be on the ballot. | |
| Would they expect those votes to just transfer over to Harris and kind of give her an early start on finishing up the campaign? | |
| I don't see this happening with two caveats here. | |
| Unless Biden has a really bad fall or a really bad health issue that emerges, or if Joe Biden somehow, how do I say this? | |
| If Joe Biden has the verbal gaffes of all verbal gaffes, and it's just so transparent that he's not up to the job, I don't see him being removed from the ticket. | |
| I think this is going to be the ticket. | |
| It's going to be Trump versus Biden. | |
| Now, but those things that I mentioned could absolutely happen. | |
| If that happens, that would then, you know, they would throw it to the delegates at the Democratic National Convention and they would pick a replacement. | |
| Probably the person that comes to mind first would be Vice President Harris, but I think there'd be probably a large contingent of people that don't want her at the top of the ticket. | |
| But I think that's probably the likely scenario. | |
| But it's not going to happen unless one of these outside events happen. | |
| That's my belief, but I might be wrong. | |
| If the game plan is for him to actually step aside, wouldn't he have to do that before early voting started, though? | |
| Yes, he would. | |
| Okay. | |
| Okay. | |
| Unless, of course, he died before the election. | |
| And at that point, the Democrats would have to, I guess, get their delegates together and come up with a replacement. | |
| I've just been trying to think through all of these things. | |
| I mean, the guy's so weak, frail, and such a cognitive mess. | |
| I mean, he doesn't look like the epitome of health to me. | |
| Oh, absolutely. | |
| Well, let me put it this way. | |
| If it was my family member and I was watching somebody I cared about, a family member of mine, and the condition that Joe Biden is in, I'm sorry. | |
| I would be very, very adamant in leading my family in the direction of insisting that he retire. | |
| I don't think you ever go to Walmart. | |
| Pardon? | |
| Do you ever go to Walmart? | |
| All the time. | |
| Okay. | |
| When you go to Walmart, you ever go in and they have these very nice greeters that meet you at the door. | |
| Usually they're retired people, the nicest people in the world. | |
| And is there anything I could do to help you today? | |
| And yeah, I'm looking for the sporting goods section. | |
| I'm looking for the whatever section. | |
| Well, it's right over there. | |
| I'll blah, blah, blah, blah. | |
| And I don't think Joe Biden could be a Walmart greeter. | |
| You want to know why? | |
| He'd never remember where anything in the store is. | |
| I don't think he could recall it. | |
| I agree. | |
| I don't think he knows where he is most of the time. | |
| Yeah, I think he'd probably say, well, it's probably next to my uncle Bosey. | |
| He's being eaten by cannibals in the row 12. | |
| Anyway, I got to roll, man. | |
| Thanks, Ted. | |
| Appreciate you being with us. | |
| All right, quick break right back to our phones. | |
| 800-941-Sean as we continue along. | |
| The Sean Hannity Show, proudly serving America on 735 great radio stations. | |
| Hennity is on right now. | |
| The fake Ramaswamy coming up at the top of the hour, but back to our phones we go. | |
| 800-941, Sean, our number. | |
| Let's say hi to Jerry, Free State of Florida. | |
| What's up, Jerry? | |
| How are you, my friend? | |
| Good afternoon, Sean. | |
| Just as an ex-New Yorker down here in Florida, I want to welcome you to what is the freest state with the best economy and the best schools under the leadership of arguably the best governor in the nation. | |
| So welcome to Florida. | |
| Great to have you down here. | |
| It's great to be here. | |
| By the way, if you're coming from another state and you're moving to Florida, don't bring your stupid liberal ideas with you. | |
| Absolutely. | |
| Otherwise, I suggest you move to California. | |
| One point of irony about these protests, if you would call them, on the college campuses and one quick solution. | |
| A point of irony is how tone-deaf and what is the value of the education that is likely to be, the cost of which is likely to be passed under to the taxpayers under another student-alone, quote-unquote, forgiveness program, that many of these students, whom are very affluent suburban white female students, | |
| are protesting for a system of government and governance under a theocracy that is not going to even give them the benefits that they are protesting for and to have the freedom of education and the freedom to peacefully protest. | |
| In those countries, women do not have those same, enjoy those same rights as they do here. | |
| I mean, I think that's very ironic. | |
| And again, what is the value of the education that they are getting in these schools that they don't have that lack that perspective and understanding? | |
| I actually was in, I think, one of the New York tabloids today. | |
| I believe it was the New York Post. | |
| They actually had a picture of some of the protesters, and one appeared to support LGBTQ rights, and it had a rainbow flag on it and all that sort of thing. | |
| I'm like, do you have any idea how these countries with Sharia law treat gays and lesbians? | |
| Because if you get caught being gay or lesbian, usually the penalty is death. | |
| Are they not aware, the women's rights activists, are they not aware how women are treated under Sharia law? | |
| In some cases, they can't drive. | |
| In most cases, they have to cover their faces and their heads. | |
| And in other cases, they're not allowed outside their home without a male relative. | |
| They can't travel without permission of a male in the family, either their husband or father. | |
| I mean, it's insane. | |
| But are they in part supporting that? | |
| Yes, they are. | |
| Are they supporting it out of the ignorance that you're referring to? | |
| 100%. | |
| You're right. | |
| I'll give you the last word. | |
| And then one possible solution. | |
| These protesters, like you point out, are similar to the paid protesters in the summer of love, like you call it, correctly call it in 2020. | |
| They are anti-police. | |
| They want the police to come on so that they can videotape and get the wrong send of message by getting a quick 30-second clip of them being arrested. | |
| In my opinion, the campus should get some spinal fortitude and start taking away their rights of a degree or anything that they paid for if they don't immediately vacate the premises. | |
| It should be administrative actions taken by the campus, and that would directly hit home. | |
| And you'd watch out how quickly those campuses would clear out if little Junior doesn't get their diploma because they were protesting on campus. | |
| I think Switch should have. | |
| They should have enforced their deadline yesterday and suspended or even expelled people. | |
| They expelled people for using the wrong pronoun sometimes. | |
| Anyway, appreciate the call, my friend. | |
