The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 4:

• Caroline Moore—Vice President of Parents Defending Education—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss a report from The Daily Signal documenting a Colorado public school which mandated an 11-year-old girl share a bed with a biological male, who identifies as a girl, during a school trip without ever notifying the girl’s parents.

• While speaking with Bloomberg news, former Vice President Al Gore compared social media algorithms to AR-15s. He said of algorithms: “They are the digital equivalent of AR-15s. They ought to be banned. They really ought to be banned. It's an abuse of the public forum…These devices are the enemies of self-government, and they are the enemies of democracy.”
• On Tuesday, Harvard University President Claudine Gay testified before the House Education and Workforce Committee. During one noteworthy exchange with Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-NY), Gay refused to say anti-Semitic speech was violative of the school’s code of conduct—arguing that Harvard is an ardent supporter of free speech. In 2020, Rep. Stefanik was appointed to a Senior Advisory position with the Harvard Institute of Politics—however, because she was a vocal supporter of Donald Trump during the 2020 election, the student body protested the appointment and Harvard ultimately fired her. So, the notion that Harvard is an ardent supporter of free speech is flawed—they seem to only support speech provided it gels with the popular progressive opinions of the moment.
