When asked whether he condoned a professor who praised Hamas’s October 7 attack, UC Berkeley’s Chancellor told Congresswoman Virginia Foxx that he can’t comment on a comment by an individual faculty member. These guys are all for free speech until they’re asked to condemn hate speech.

@virginiafoxx People are losing their jobs all over the country because they have made hateful statements. Why are employees of colleges exempt from being held to the same standards?

🔥 Berkeley Chancellor Defends Event Denying Hamas Rape of Israeli Women Rep. Mary Miller confronted UC Berkeley Chancellor Rich Lyons over a February event hosted by the Gender and Women’s Studies Department titled “Feminist and Queer Solidarities with Palestine.” During the event, speakers denied that Hamas raped Israeli women on October 7 and claimed that Israel was “weaponizing feminism.” Miller asked the obvious: “Why was this event ever allowed on UC Berkeley’s campus?” Lyons defended it as a legitimate online faculty event, organized by a “fine professor”—and claimed that although the ideas were “controversial,” he wouldn’t cancel it because of the “marketplace of ideas.” Miller was blunt: “Silence means something. This is terrible.” Bottom line: Berkeley gave an institutional platform to the denial of Hamas’s sexual violence—and its leadership stood behind it in the name of “open debate.” Academic freedom should never be a shield for dehumanization.

EXCLUSIVE: Joshua Wilson, a conservative Oklahoma State University student, spoke with us after he was reprimanded by his university for giving a speech honoring the death of Charlie Kirk and promoting free speech. A faculty member allegedly told him that his speech was "triggering" and "partisan," and that his year was going to be "difficult" for him. He encourages others to stand up for their rights in order to "spark the flames of positive change on your campus and community that will never be put out."

At a Culver City Unified School District meeting, a member of the public called in to comment on a proposed parcel tax, district finances, declining enrollment, and enforcement of residency requirements. Once her time ran out, board member Triston Ezidore—whose bio is packed with leftist signaling—jumped in with, “Can we mute the hate speech?” The speaker, clearly surprised, replied, “What hate speech?” She was told her time was up, and they moved on. Apparently, criticizing the district’s fiscal decisions is now “hate speech.” It’s becoming clearer every day that many progressive politicians in California no patience for the democratic process when it involves actual dissent. Basic respect for the right to free speech has weakened to a perilous degree.

WOW: Jack Posobiec delivers some of the most profound words yet on the dark forces that took his friend Charlie Kirk’s life. When Laura Ingraham asked whether this was an attack on Charlie’s faith, his politics, or Trump...Jack Posobiec said the truth is, to these people, it’s all the same. “They see it as inextricably linked.” Then he described exactly who these people are: “There seems to be a group of people in this country who hate everything that we stand for. They hate God. They hate Christ, and because they know they can’t take Christ out, they can’t take God out… what do they do?” “They target His followers. They target His children.”

🚨 Rep. Ro Khanna Defends ArabCon, Mocks Critics of “Pro-Terror Radicals” At ArabCon, Rep. Ro Khanna (D-CA) opened by taunting critics of the conference: “So where are the pro-terror radicals? Raise your hand if you're a pro-terror radical.” He went on to frame the backlash as an attack on free speech: “What happened to the First Amendment? You know what happened to the free speech? Free speech, if you agree with me, but not free speech, if you go speak at ArabCon. Come on, I actually believe in free speech consistently.” And he pointed to campuses: “What's going on in our university campuses with people who are criticizing foreign policy and then getting harassed, that's not standing up for free speech.”

🚨 BREAKING: “Death to America” Comes to Virginia Tech At Virginia Tech tonight, Mohamed Abdou opened his “Death to the Akademy” speech by declaring, “We are in a war, a racial religious war since 1492.” He told students America is “the larger monster,” praised “General Sinwar,” called October 7 the “blessed day of Al-Aqsa Flood,” and said jihad can mean defending life “using the sword.” Then he praised students as “a branch of the resistance” and said they were recognized as “a branch of the mujahideen.” And when he explained “Death to America,” he was explicit. “When we say Death to America, we mean, and loud and clear, a total end to U.S. empire. The destruction of this crusading settler colony, their entire project.” Virginia Tech spent the last few days insisting this event was not happening. It happened. And this is what was said. Stick around, because there is a lot more to unpack. We are not even halfway through his speech yet.

The "world's foremost debating society and the last bastion of free speech" REFUSES to remove it's anti-free speech president-elect and REFUSES to allow open debate by turning off replies on social media. The Oxford Union's president-elect celebrated, condoned, and justified the assassination of Charlie Kirk.—a man who encouraged vigorous, public debate on college campuses. He is literally justifying the act of murder as an appropriate response to speech you don't agree with. If Oxford Union truly cared about free speech, they'd speak up and take action against those celebrating and justifying the murder of a man in the act of defending free speech by hosting a vigorous, open debate on a college campus. Incredibly, the Oxford Union, which describes itself as "the world's foremost debating society and the last bastion of free speech," has turned off replies. What a stunning lack of self awareness. This organization is incompetent and moral bankrupt. It's president-elect is a vile, disgusting and dangerous individual who is advocating for terrorism, murder and "violent retaliation" against those who he disagrees with politically.

🚨 Telling Moment: Berkeley Refuses to Commit to Transparency on Foreign Funding When asked by Congressman Michael Baumgartner whether UC Berkeley would disclose every dollar of foreign spending, Chancellor Rich Lyons refused—repeatedly. “I’m not ready to make that commitment today.” He claimed Berkeley vets “countries of concern” and even said, “We say no to a lot of foreign money, I promise you that.” But when asked for a single example, he admitted: “I’m not in a position to provide that information.” Meanwhile, Georgetown’s president committed to full transparency without hesitation thanks to Rep. Baumgartner. Why is Berkeley hiding what foreign governments are funding on its campus?

ELON: FREE SPEECH IS THE FOUNDATION OF A REAL DEMOCRACY Elon lays out a point that shouldn’t be controversial… but somehow it is. He argues that you don’t get a healthy democracy by managing speech, filtering opinions, or deciding which ideas people are “allowed” to hear. Once speech is controlled in the name of safety, the system stops correcting itself and starts lying to itself. Bad ideas aren’t defeated by censorship, they’re defeated by exposure, debate, and reality. Elon’s warning is simple: when speech is suppressed, voting becomes performance art and trust collapses. Free speech isn’t a risk... losing it is. “I think it's very important for there to be an inclusive arena for free speech. It’s important that people have the reality and the perception that they are able to speak freely within the bounds of the law. A good sign is someone you don't like allowed to say something you don't like, and if that is the case then we have free speech. That is a sign of a healthy, functioning, free speech situation.” Source: EM Clips (YouTube)

Congressman Darrell Issa claims to be a “champion of free speech” yet he had me arrested for asking about Israel’s attack on Qatar. Speaking truth to power is not a crime. Call his office (760) 304-7575 - press 1 - and demand Rep. Issa drop the charges. Free speech for all, not just when it’s convenient.

.Andrew Doyle: “If you look at all the various definitions of hate speech across European statute books, none of them agree. No one knows what it is really.” The concept of hate speech is being used to erode free speech across Europe, argues comedian and writer Andrew Doyle, author of “Free Speech and Why It Matters.” “No one can define hate speech. No one knows what it means. And [yes] human beings hate. That's an emotion that has developed in us over many, many years. You can't wish away a human emotion with the stroke of a pen. You may as well try and legislate against envy. It doesn't make sense,” he says. “People [are] trying to eliminate free speech or draw their own exceptions or carve out exceptions. That's why the First Amendment—even though it's a great protection—is not invulnerable to attack or modification or misinterpretation. All of that can still happen.” Free speech, he says, is never something that’s won, it’s something that needs to be fought for always.

🚨 ArabCon laughs at October 7 Attacks “condemnation” question, Professor Abdulhadi vows to never condemn armed resistance At ArabCon, Amer Zahr, adjunct professor at the University of Detroit Mercy School of Law, turned the October 7 attacks into a punchline. He asked, “Do you condemn October 7th?” — and the panel and audience erupted in laughter, a ghoulish reaction given the atrocities of that day. San Francisco State University’s Dr. Rabab Abdulhadi immediately followed by rejecting any criticism of violence: “I condemn Israel and the United States and all oppression and imperial war around the world. I never ever condemn Palestinian resistance and any resistance around the world.”

Officer Karen is attempting to shut down Christians in Ft Worth Texas for hate speech because their speech “Offended” a bystander . One of the gentleman that she’s attempting to silence via a citation is a 26 year federal police officer who knows the law. When he calls her out on it, she changes it from hate speech to disorderly conduct.. She’s basically all over the map, but unfortunately this is what our nation is dealing with now from the top to the bottom.. these gentlemen stood their ground bravo for them.
