The pro-Hamas encampment at George Washington University in DC has been in full, hideous swing for days.  City officials refused to allow the police to help the school clear the encampment, despite an explicit request from GW to do so, citing bad ‘optics.’  Since then, the mob overran officers and barricades to expand their “encampment,” completely covered a Washington statue with Palestinian garb and other desecrations, booed and jeered when an American flag was unfurled overlooking their terrorism-supporting ‘protest,’ then projected a ‘Genocide Joe’ message over the flag.  What patriotic frat boys on various campuses seem to instinctively understand is that these people aren’t just anti-Israel; they overwhelmingly hate America, too.  That’s what drives so much of the dirtbag left.  These people despise Western civilization, and they’re deeply radical at heart….

The three-judge panel for the US Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit considered arguments on Monday by Tristan Stevens that his convictions shouldn’t be classified as an “aggravated assault.” That classification triggered a longer prison sentence for assaulting an officer and other misconduct during the Jan. 6, 2021, riot.

Pro-Hamas protests are still ongoing and some students are learning that “standing up for something you believe in” has a cost, as their entitled reality is crumbling around them. Today’s show breaks it down.

While some colleges are allowing brats to continue blocking Jewish students from class, and have even canceled graduation ceremonies because administrators are that pathetic, other university officials are holding these students accountable.
