0:00.0	Welcome back, everyone to a new episode of Your Wrong with Molly Hemingway,
0:18.6	editor-in-chief of the Federalist and David Harsani, senior writer at the Washington Examiner. Just as a reminder, if you'd like to write us here
0:25.6	at the show, please do so at radio at the Federalist. We love to hear from you. How are you, Molly?
0:31.9	Great. How are you doing? I'm doing great. I'm excited that the deportations have begun,
0:37.1	especially.
0:39.8	Mahmoud Khalil, a Colombian, a Colombian, a graduate, a former graduate student at Columbia
0:47.1	University. And I'd say a ringleader of a lot of the quote unquote protests that went on recently is being

2:10.0	that did not result in a great deal of attention from high Republican leaders. So for instance, if you went to the BLM site on day one of the BLM protests and riots,
2:24.3	you saw that they had as one of their key beliefs, opposition to Israel and support for
2:31.3	Palestinian, like, complete takeover of...
2:35.0	From the river to the sea, as they say.
2:39.0	And yet you had, like, Mitt Romney marching with BLM.
