The anti Israel demonstrations quickly spreading from colleges on the
East Coast through the Midwest as far as Texas and
on to California.
Protests and encampments are descending into full on clashes with
police and now those protesters who might actually face some
consequences
are demanding amnesty. Hello everyone.
This is outnumbered. I'm Emily Campano here with my Co
host Kayleigh Mcenany and Harris Faulkner and also joining us
today,
Fox News contributor Lisa Booth and Fox News contributor and
former Utah Congressman Jason Chaffetz.
Now there have been growing calls for crackdowns on the
anti Israel protests at campuses across the country.
We're now learning that University of Georgia police and Georgia
State Patrol troopers have arrested multiple demonstrators during an anti
Israel protest at the Athens campus just a short time
ago. There have reportedly been nearly
900 arrests at protests across the country so far
and now Columbia is giving students camped out on the
campus a deadline.
They say 2:00 PM Eastern.
Today is the deadline for them to leave or face
suspension.
Final exams, financial aid, and even graduation are now on
the line.
But those righteous students and professors taking part in the
anti Israel demonstrations are demanding that the school grant them
amnesty.
They don't want their arrests and suspensions to follow them
after college.
Jason. To me it doesn't matter what they want or
demand.
I don't think hostages once or demands were frankly taken
into in consideration when they were butchered and taken hostage
by Hamas.
And certainly those who identify with Hamas then shouldn't receive
any type of amnesty from school administrators.
For them having a tantrum on campus and sympathizing with
terrorists,
Yeah punks, welcome to the real world.
Welcome to being an adult and personal responsibility.
They they they're going to have to live up to
the consequences of their actions.
All 900 plus of these people who broke the law
should be prosecuted. If you broke the school rules,
you should probably be expelled because you're talking about killing
other people.
Is there any more hateful speech than that?
So yeah, they got to hold them accountable.
Amnesty. Are you kidding me?
Look it is as American as it gets to protest,
but you have to do so peacefully.
And when you call for the death and destruction of
others including your your classmates,
then guess what? There's a real world consequence.
And it is not amnesty and I think it's rich,
Lisa to expect in any way that if your protest,
if your demonstration is again sympathizing with terrorism that you
would think you would get off Scott free.
That these people who have the luxury of probably never
having gone hungry,
never having a slap on their wrist,
never being bored, never having a phone outside of their
hand,
etcetera, actually think they are immune from consequences from their
childish and demonic behavior.
But they have been, you know,
thus far, right. I I mean,
these students are saying they're standing against genocide,
but they subscribe to the same belief system that led
to the Holocaust,
you know, and and this we're,
we're witnessing A hostile takeover of colleges and universities across
the country.
But this began and started a long time ago,
and it started when these universities
replaced academic excellence with social justice warriors,
with activism. And you go back to
2017 when Stanford accepted a student for writing Black Lives
Matter 100 times on his essay or Heritage did a
study in
2021 looking at 741 DI personnel at 65 universities across
the country and found that
96% of of the tweets from that personnel were anti
Israel.
So of of course what we're seeing needs to be
universally condemned.
It is wrong. It is evil.
The students are wrong. The faculty and and the teachers
are wrong as well
and so are the administrators.
But it's going to take a long time to wrestle
back,
you know, universities and colleges from what we have seen.
And Kaylee, let's talk about the real world for a
second.
Because while, for example, the 100 professors at Columbia University
signed on to this despicable letter by the students that
called the Hamas
grotesque massacre a military action,
Sure, maybe they'll absolve these demonstrators of OK,
fine, your suspension won't be on your record,
but guess who was in charge of,
for example, hiring at one of my prior places of
employment?
I was. And it matters to me,
as it does to my prior place of employment and
in the private sector,
people who have sympathized with terrorism,
people who call for genocide and extermination of the people.
So go ahead and enjoy your college record being totally
easy breezy,
but the reality is the private sector won't be so
forgiving.
Yeah, you may have your First Amendment right,
but you should be unemployable if you exercise that right
irresponsibly and advocate for terrorism for Hamas or against Jewish
men and women,
which is what we are seeing.
I could not believe the headline on the New York
Post about George Washington University right there nestled in the
heart of DC horror as GWU protester Carrie sign with
Nazi Final Solution sign calling for the extermination of Jews.
So it's anti-Semitism, it's leaning into the Holocaust.
There needs to be consequences for that.
At George Washington University they found the guts to change
their name from the colonials to the revolutionaries when they
incurred criticism.
So a little bit of criticism for your mascot.
You change that. What about these students who have talked
about the Final Solution?
Where's the consequence? We need leadership right now.
Right now in Columbia, you mentioned 2:00 PM deadline to
leave the encampment.
Well, what's going to happen in an hour and 55
minutes?
Are they actually going to take action?
What's going to happen in Congress where Mike Johnson has
said let's pull funding from these universities?
If you allow anti-Semitism, what's going to happen with the
anti-Semitism Awareness Act which is condemning
anti-Semitism? Apparently there are some Democrats who don't want to
vote for it.
And what's going to happen in the White House?
Our Fox News Digital reached out to the Biden administration
and said will you pull student loan debt forgiveness from
someone engaging in anti-Semitism?
Guess we heard crickets. Crickets.
Where are you Joe? But we know for example,
Harris, Robert Kraft pulled funding from Columbia,
right? He said it was despicable,
this anti-Semitism. So we've seen at least again that private
sector accountability.
Will we see it from this government,
will we see it from this views we've seen anything
besides don't.
I mean, what we haven't seen is corporate America and
you know,
as a whole come out and saying you've got some
tweets from Elon Musk,
which or posts from Elon Musk,
which I've picked up just recently,
but but wholly you're you're not,
you're not seeing any of that from a broader corporate
life.
I would put it this way,
900 arrests,
900 arrests. That'll give you an idea of how big
these crowds are.
They didn't say we arrested everybody and the and the
number was 900,
They said of everybody who was out there,
we picked up 900. These are campuses that are overrun
by these people.
And I think it's worth having a conversation about the
money that's flowing from people like George Soros and his
organizations and his son Alexander,
who was reportedly much more an activist than his dad
ever was.
I think it's worth having a conversation about the organized
uniformity that we see with the camps,
with the tents, with the signage,
with what you can hear in the background,
repeat after me. And then these like,
scripted chants that they have.
I mean, I think we need to start to talk
about because,
look, summer's right around the corner,
Are we going into another summer of love where people
get to do what they want and and just run
away with our justice system in America because they want
to propagate hate? I don't even know if they understand
what they're saying.
Half of them couldn't find Israel on a map if
their lives depended on it.
And they're getting some of the most expensive education in
the world,
which is really sick. So what are they learning?
They're learning how to teach us to be numb.
They're learning how to teach us as a wider society
not to do anything when the children have to shout,
well, you know what? Where are the adults in the
room that this White House promised us?
Why don't they dispatch some adult acting surrogates and get
the word out there that no one is going to
tolerate hate on the streets of America?
What happened to red, white and blue,
and not just the green of campaign donations for this
particular president?
Put some extra schools on your commencement schedule,
Mr. President, and walk out like the Speaker of the
House did Mike Johnson.
And face some of these people face to face.
You'll need every Secret Service member because they call you
genocide,
Joe. But go anyway, go anyway and be tough at
the top.
