Pro-terrorists at Columbia and the Marxist rot of the Ivory Tower, plus NYC trial and Kamala trolled over pot

The Alan Sanders Show

On today’s show, I first open with a shout-out for today being the birthday of William Shakespeare. Because of that, I spend a few minutes discussing how I came to love and admire his work and how it led to choosing (in part) the theme I use for my show – Limelight, by RUSH.

Today’s show is almost entirely focused on the issues continuing to blow up on campuses around our country, specifically Columbia University in New York. The hate and anti-American, anti-Semite vitriol is as shocking to hear as is the pro-Hamas/pro-terrorism chants from these students and faculty. Once again, they represent the Creature and the professors and faculty represent Dr. Frankenstein. They can’t admit their ideology is horribly flawed, so when called to denounce the actions and chants of the students, they find themselves trying to equivocate. Even the president of Columbia, President Shafik had to be dragged kicking and screaming to the truth by Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-NY).

But we should not conflate the ethnicity or country of origin of President Shafik with the woke ideology all Leftists espouse. Remember, Egypt wants nothing to do with Palestinians, including refugees. They do not trust fundamentalist Islamists who want to implement a pre-civilization form of butchery and barbarism. The fault is in allowing these campuses to be radicalized by Marxists who want to indoctrinate our college students into their radical philosophies.

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) had the gall to say the protests on campus were peacefully led student protests. She is literally gas-lighting us in real-time, given we see these protests are anything but peaceful. The narrative and the propaganda must always come before truth.

I also took time today to look at how the NYC “hush money” trial of Donald Trump is proceeding. You know it’s bad when left-of-center Jonathan Turley, Constitutional Law Professor at George Washington University sees Day One as a complete mockery of our legal system. He admits being astounded that Alvin Bragg had Michael Colangelo, former US Associate Attorney General under Joe Biden and Merrick Garland, who left that position to go work for Bragg, to be a part of opening arguments. If they wanted to avoid the appearance of White House collusion and direction, that isn’t how you would do it. But, maybe they don’t care because they feel a New York City jury will hate Trump enough to convict him, regardless.

I wanted to add an addendum to my comments over Speaker Mike Johnson from yesterday. When it comes to the $60 billion allocated for Ukraine, let’s remember what Donald Trump said about that. Standing with Johnson at Mar-a-Lago, he told the press that he was thinking of it in terms of a loan, not a gift. And, it seems, that’s how the wording made it in the bill. Does this completely absolve Johnson? Not entirely, but it does add a new wrinkle, one worth pondering.

Finally, as a reminder of how dump our Vice President is, she decided to comment on a Joe Biden tweet wanting to decriminalize marijuana. We allow Tulsi Gabbard to take Kamala Harris apart on this issue by reminding you of what happened on the 2019 Democrat Primary debate stage on CNN. Gabbard reminded the audience that Harris made a career of locking people up for marijuana, while joking about smoking it herself while campaigning.
