| 0:00.0 | at 7 o'clock p.m. Eastern exclusively here on Rumbull, the free speech alternative to YouTube. |
| 0:04.6 | Tonight, if I had to pick the most direct and explicit legislative abridgment over the last |
| 0:10.3 | decade of core constitutional rights, and likely be the wildly expanded definition |
| 0:15.2 | of quote anti-Semitism that was just court incorporated into federal anti-discrimination law last |
