Summary

One hundred Harvard professors have united to protect freedom of speech. This is good news, That it needs to be done is bad news… No more “boys” and “girls” in a Vermont school district. Why would any parent keep their kid in these schools? Tucker Carlson made his first public statement yesterday. He was oblique about his future plans but was clear that he will make his voice heard… Parents have been placed in a terrible position. They now have to worry that their local public school is warping their child’s mind. Julie Hartman fills in as Dennis rushes to catch a flight to Phoenix… The Biden Administration is obsessed with “gender-affirming care,” a made-up term. Do people really believe children can confidently define themselves?... We live in an era of great injustice. The issue is not racism. The issue is protecting children.

0:42.6	Over 100 Harvard professors form a council in a fight for free speech amid what they call a crisis.
0:54.1	That's good news. And I will say, I'm not surprised that it's Harvard.
1:01.1	Harvard is left wing as any university, but there are people there who actually believe in truth.
1:10.1	It's a minority view on virtually every campus in the United States. Over 100. See,
1:19.2	this is what needs to be done, but I will be very pleasantly surprised if more than 10 other
