Hey, everybody. Welcome to Patreon exclusive coverage of 9-3 of the Democratic National Convention.

I'm Jared Yates-Saxston. And at the DNC, at the actual United Center, we have the one, the only, Nick Halseman. How are you doing, buddy?

I'm good. I'm good. After night three, the batteries are getting a little bit lower.

They are getting low. Well, hey, spending half the day with you outside and then getting in here.

It's a lot. Nick, I don't know if you looked at your step counter. We put in the work today.

Well, I'm kind of curious.

You know, if you can give me a quick overview of how it ended up with the protest,

because after I left you, it sounded like it got a little more exciting.

Listen, things were happening.

So to get everybody up to speed, and by the way, I just looked at mine,

I had 17,000 steps today, so I got that going.

So first of all, if everyone wants to listen to the full coverage of this, and I know you do because you are getting excellent coverage from us, you're not getting anywhere else, you need

to go to patreon.com slash my Craig podcast. So Nick and I, before he went into the actual

convention tonight, we spent a lot of the time going to some protest.

We saw Ilhan Omar speaking with a Palestinian group. Also, Nick, I don't know if you've heard about this

since you were in the convention hall. There was a group of uncommitted delegates who were asking

the DNC to feature a Palestinian up on the stage.

They were denied by the DNC and have now staged a sit-in, which got very weird.

Nick and I were there as a protest, a Gaza protest was taking place in Union Park.

It was slow going, but eventually got about 5,000, 6,000 people.

It included multiple clashes with the police.

I'll talk more about what I saw, which I thought was really, really disturbing, what the larger implications were.
