There were hours of intense standoff with 00 dropped antiisrael hundreds of antiisrael protesters. Critics have called out President Biden. He has not made an in person statement in more than a week. Peter doocy pressed Karine Jeanpierre about it and whether biden is concerned about how these protests impact his 2024 race. Watch. Is he that worried be about losing the vote with the protesters . The president has taken a lot of policy actions here that he knows that young people care about and a lot of those actions are popular with those young folks whether its giving a little bits of breathing room to student debt relief, the president understands how important it is to deal with that issue, climate change, something that they care about. Maria she did not answer the question. Were waiting for President Biden to Say Something about this. The president you announced hes approving 6 billion in student debt relief, impacting 3 p hundred thousand borrowers who attended art colleges, biden forgiving 160 billion of debt. Former President Trump is you accusing biden of trying to buy votes from young people. Joe biden got he rejected last year by the United StatesSupreme Court on his Student Loan Program so that what he wanted to do is buy votes. Now, the problem with that is many of the people here, you know, large numbers of people went through years and years to pay off their loan. All of a sudden this guy comes along and in order to try to buy an election, the Supreme Court rejected it so he goes in again with a little smaller version of the s same thing. Hes going to get rejected. Maria he got rejected. Keeps on forgiving Student Loan Debt even though its deemed unconstitutional by the Supreme Court. When the Supreme Court says something its not a suggestion. Its the law of the land. Im curious to see what happens from a legal perspective. On the buying vote front, what hell is this . This is clearly an y attempt to buy vote. Ic it will backfire. I think these people were probably going to vote for him anyway. Most of the people receiving this are making hundreds of us thousands of dollars and theyre in what i would call the white liberal class that arent going to vote for drum. Trump. I think its wasted money. I think the people that will be funding this with their hard work, Blue Collar Workers who are firmly in trumps camp. Maria bidens silence in the middle of all of this is deafening. Look at what were looking at, at ucla. Youve got cops in riot gear. We havent heard from this president. There are questions surrounding the president s mysterious trip to wilmington yesterday. He spent several hours inside the high school. The campaign and white house would only say the president did a campaign event. There were no signs of large crowds. There were cameramen and Staff Members in black tshirts and id badges that said crew. We dont know if he was filming a commercial or what he was doing. Maria, i have to say, besides the weird activity that he did yesterday, fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me. The fact you had so many people that werent paying Student Loans because they were under the covid relief pause and biden said ill promise relief so these people were counting on this and then the Supreme Court undid it and now hes coming back again and saying okay, were going to go ahead and do it again a second time. If you believe thats hes going to be able to do this and you think your student loan is forgiven youre not paying ayou attention to whats happening. This is a constitutional crisis. For a sitting president to ignore the Supreme Court and what they said its in their face saying you know what and so this what is he doing in a high school when he needs to be out in public saying stop this antisemitism and stop this violent protesting thats disrupting the entire consistent tri. This could really country. This could really spill out into the rest of the country. The economy is too weak. Its an Election Year. This is appeasement on its face. Maria i dont think he can hide in the basement while this is going on for much longer. Thats why they want trump hidden in the courtroom. To level the playing field. He needs to Say Something about this. He needs to condemn it. He needs to get kids going back to school. You cant not have kids go to school, rack up Student Loan Debt and forgive it. Thats not the way we have a productive society. Maria unbelievable. As relates to young voters, theyre up you for grabs. In 2020, 83 of young voters voted for buy p den, only 10 biden, only 10 for trump. Right now its polling at 45, 45. Despite the fact hes trying to buy vote via the student loan stuff, young voters are starting to move towards trump. I would say these scenes are a Perfect Campaign commercial for trump. They happened under joe biden watch because of a lack of leadership from the top. Dont give me that yes, there the were protests in the summer of 2020 while trump was president. They occurred in blue cities. They were not Donald Trumps fault. They were the fault of policies in the blue cities wham youre seeing is a function of the democratic machine failing at the worst possible time. Maria how long did they say they wanted to defund the police . Right, this is all part of the democrat policy playbook. Were just getting started. Federal reserve chairman jay powell spoke on the feds future rate decisions. I think its unlikely that the next policy rate move will be a hike. Maria the word on wall street panel is here to weigh in on what that means for inflation after the break. Then next week were taking you live to la and the milken conference, the Milken Institute global conference is happening in los angeles. Ill speak with top economic minds in business. Dont miss it.

Joining me right now is the chairman and ceo of stragis. Jason, mark tepper and rebecca walser. Markets reacting to the fed leaving Interest Rates unchanged as we expected at the april, may policy meeting, dow industrials at the high of the morning, up 191. Interest rates, the 10 year treasury right now pulling back by about 2 andahalf basis points, at a level of 4. 60 . The Federal Reserve left Interest Rates unchanged for a sixth straight meeting acknowledging a, quote, lack of progress in getting inflation back down to the 2 target. Heres the chairman, jay powell, trying to put to rest talks of a possible rate hike this year instead. Watch. We do not expect that it will be appropriate to reduce the target range for the federal funds rate until we have gained greater confidence that inflation is moving sustainably toward 2 . It is likely that gaining such greater confidence will take longer. I think its unlikely that the next policy rate move will be a hike. We need to see Persuasive Evidence that our policy stance is not sufficiently restrictive to bring inflation down to 2 over time. Maria mark, your reaction. I mean, i think what were seeing firsthand is the emotional volatility of investors. Heres what i heard yesterday coming out of jay powell. We dont intend on hiking but were sure as heck not going to cut were going to stay the course, more of t the same. Investors were like great hes not going to hike. The market zooms up and crashes and goes below the level at which it was when he started talking. When it comes to cutting rates, investors obviously are addicted to low rates and they want low rates and thats a i think hope for low rates us is what has propelled the market this year. We came into the year expecting almost six cuts. Down to 1. 4 if you look at the fed funds future markets right now. If you look at the underperformance of small caps versus large caps which would be those profitless companies because over 40 of the russell 2000 makes no money, it would cause you to believe its unlikely we see any rate cuts. Maria you said that from day one that you were not buying the idea that it was going to be six. Nor was i. Youve got a great inhouse development that you youve done, yo youve developed the cn man cpi of items people must buy, including food, utilities, shelter and insurance. This chart shows that americans standard of living deteriorated by 8 since President Biden was inaugurated. Tell us more about this. The bureau of labor statistics published cpi and core cpi which excludes food and energy which of course for the average person is ironic because food and energy is eating and staying warm is pretty core. Maria this is the essentials. We went the other way and we said what what are all the things that people must buy come hell or high water, food, energy, clothing, shelter, utilities, insurance. That has grown at a rate 8 faster over the last three years than wages and this is part of the reason why i think the Biden Administration sometimes wonders, says why a arent we getting more credit on the economy, Unemployment Rate is low, stock market is high. People are feeling poorer and theyve become poorer. Its the cumulative effect of inflation that people are responding to. Maria why do you think that is . 11 rate hikes and yet we still have inflation sticky after these couple of years. The biggest the single biggest reason is were running budget deficits of 2 trillion a year. Were running a budget deficit right now of 7 of gdp. Weve done that three other times in the post war period. Every actual we did that the Unemployment Rate was above 7. Were running a budget deficit of a magnitude that are consistent with already being in a recession where we dont have to, were doing that for political reasons in my opinion and thats why youre seeing inflation. Theres no coordination between fiscal policy and Monetary Policy in the United States. Maria thats right. Even as the fed instituted 11 rate hikes its dealing with a tsunami of spending. The democrats 7 trillion dollars in spending and borrowing on joe bidens watch. You say the biggest risk to the market is the prospect of higher bond yields. Yeah. Its not just inflation may be coming down but whats happening is we have increased the amount of debt on our on the countrys Balance Sheet to about 35 trillion. Amazingly secretary yellen is issuing shortterm debt to fund it. Maria its totally political in my opinion. Of course. Theres no good reason for et. For it. Shortterm Interest Rates are higher than longterm Interest Rates. Youre taking more risk, spending more money. At this stage of the game just the supply alone of treasuries is going to make Interest Rates higher. By the end of the year, interest expense will be higher than our defense budget. Maria thats unbelievable. It will be over a trillion dollars. Thats not sustainable. Its something that you cant control everything. As the administrations finding out, you cant control Interest Rates, inflation and the currency at the same time. This is being evidenced in higher inflation for longer. Maria rebecca, i want to get to apple and a earnings. Let me say that biden is dispatching yellen to a swing state and forum named after john mccain to give a political speech so she is just as political as the rest of them in this administration. Shes going to say things like democracy has come under threat, that challenge was especially terrifying on the notorious day of january 6. This will be they the treasury secretarys speech she gives that political can i say, in my opinion, janet yellen is in the process of torching her reputation as an a economist. As chairman of the fed, that thatsseen as largely an apolitl organization. She is revealing herself to be a political hack. Its sad. But its also dangerous for the country, in my opinion. She has one client right now who is joe biden, not the American People. Maria how sad. And weve got these the embargoed speech from axios, got some points in it. Shes going to say undercutting democracy undercuts sustainable and exclusive growth. She will tie in the economy right there. Earnings, another factor in markets this morning. Apple is reporting after the bell. I would say this is one of the most important reports that we have to talk about, rebecca. What are you expecting . How do you want to allocate capital here . The stock is up 1. 1 going into the numbers tonight. Theyre down overall yeartodate 11. 5 . Its all about china. They used to be the number two phone in china. Then uh huh the consternation over the government saying no one can have an iphone. That brought them down to four. Its the same with tesla and starbucks in china. Post covid in china the economy is not rebounding. They lost 7 trillion in market cap because of the real estate crisis. Its all eyes on china. We got revived guidance in february, down 15 . We are expecting it to be down from last quarter but this is really going to be a tell, is china still the runway that apple needs it to be and i think the answer for now is no, especially in this political cry. Maria that was the pivot for this market when china came out and tried to ban the iphone, said they were banning the iphone for government employees. Look at the chart on apple, mark. I mean, this stock has really been its been under pressure. Maria its indicative of whats going on in the markets in the second quarter. In my n opinion, iphone demand is waning. The phone is more expensive. People dont upgrade every year. They went all in on the 3,500 headset. In my opinion be, if i catch you wearing it, we cant be friends. 3,500. But they slashed the exacted shipments in half. Nobody wants it you look foolish and its 3500 bucks that people dont have. A. I. Spending is lower than google and meta so its going to be interesting to see what the longterm plays is. Maria well see how they put a. I. In there. Without the headset. Maria reminiscent of the dotcom days. Guys, great conversation can. Thank you so much. Jason. Mark and rebecca, youre with us all morning long. We appreciate it. Quick break and how campus protests are impacting florida schools. Congressman Michael Waltz is here, hell tell us what hes seeing coming up.

Antiisrael protests raging across the country this morning recall earlier police moved in on the uclaen campment and made arrests. We saw people handcuffed. 10 antiisrael agitators were arrested at the university of south florida. One had a gun. These are outside an a day you tores. The university of agitators. A spokesperson writing this the university is not a daycare. We dont treat protest theres like children. They broke the rules and theyll face the consequences. Of governor die desantis warning that protesters could be expelled. Joining me now, congressman Michael Waltz. He is a retired green beret, retired National Guard colonel. Thank you for being here this morning. Your reaction. Go gators and university of florida under former senator ben sass leadership is not putting up with this, period and the other students have rights too. They paid good money to be there and theyre going to be able to go to school. You can protest but you break the rules, Florida State troopers are going to come in and take care of business. And with the full support of the University Leadership and by the way, maria, they made those arrests on monday and we havent had any problems since. Maria that is really good news and once again ron desantis led very well here in this situation. Im reading a troubling story right now, congressman. Its about huawei technologies. Bloomberg is reporting that the Chinese Telecom maker is the sole funder of optics competition on american universities. Huawei technologies, Chinese Telecom giant which has been black listed by the United States and is one of the tools of the ccp surveillance program, they are secretly funding Cutting Edge Research at american edge universities including harvard through an independent washington based foundation. Why is this kept secret . What is your reaction to huawei in business with harvard . Well, sadly it doesnt sures price me surprise me, maria. You look at the ivy league universities, look at their multi billion dollar endowments. We know china is the largest contributor to the university of pennsylvania which, gee, surprise, houses the biden center and we and the last administration and congress put laws forth that these universities have to report their foreign p fu funding and theyre not doing it. Betsy devos led this effort, President Trumps education secretary. Theyre not doing it. The end of the day, with he have to follow the money. Because these universities are drunk on chinese dollars and on middle east dollars. We need to know where its coming from and we need to tax it and we need to start shutting it down. Harvards a hedge fund with classrooms with 54 billion under management at this point and still loading these kids up with debt. Maria and theyre hiding it. According to the bloomberg story, bloomberg says that it viewed a nonpublic document and bloomberg reporters reviewed this document and in the document it says this. The foundation, quote, shall not be required to designate huawei as the Funding Source or the Program Sponsor of the competition and the existence and content of this agreement and the relationship between the parties shall also be considered confidential information. So in other words, heres huawei with their hooks into harvard, okay, a Chinese Communist party tool at harvard and theyre basically theyre agreeing to keep it silent and its a blacklisted company. Well, and remember, the head of harvards Chemistry Department was arrested for double dipping. Maria right. And taking Nasa NationalScience Foundation dod grants, getting Nano Technology research and going over and handing it over to the chinese, taking 100,000 a month for teaching over there. I think we need to redefine what espionage is. It doesnt have to be classified to be handing over our secrets. Maria and when youre talking about that chemistry professor who was indicted, that was part of the so ofcalled China Initiative that mike bomb be pay yow and mike pompeo and donald trump put into existence. What does joe biden do, he cancels the China Initiative. So they dont want to indict people from china who have been stealing intellectual property for decades so this is one thing that i know james comers is looking at on whether or not joe biden got paid for canceling the China Initiative but i digress. The Biden Administration is also considering bringing in palestinian as r refugees as the israel, hamas war rages on. What is your reaction to biden considering bringing pal still n refrefugees to settle here at ts time. This is assinine. In order to get them here, theyll have to flow them through the rafah crossing through egypt. Ive been saying for months now why arent we putting more pressure on egypt if were telling the israelis they cant eliminate hamas in gaza until they move the civilians, why arent t the egyptians, the gul, arab states and others then setting up camps where they can control the situation for these civilians in the sinai in egypt. I mean, on the one hand theyre saying they cant do it. On the other hand, well, if we want to bring them here to the United States, they can and just another thing, maria. Look, hamas is watching, iran is watching. If they believe they can turn World Opinion against israel, by sitting fast and sacrificing their own people, and theyre watching these protests, they think theyre winning. Why should they negotiate and why should they release hostages . Maria thats what i was going to ask. Were going to bring people from gaza into america now, doesnt that look like hes responding to these protesters . Does it look like hes giving in to these protesters and doesnt that spark even more pushback and protests. We just won, just like you said. You questioned lloyd austin yesterday on whether or not the word is safer under President Biden. Tell us about that. Yeah, i asked a simple question of bidens defense secretary. Under his and joe bidens leadership, name me one part of the world that is safer on their watch. Not in africa where weve had eight coups and pulling out of embassies, certainly not the middle east, certainly not the south china sea. Where . Point to me one place. He said europe, europe was safer with world war iii on europes doorstep. It was mindblowing. Maria what about the u. S. . Are we safer today . Exactly. 300 people on the terrorist watch list according to bidens own fbi director, chris wray, its unbelievable. Maria congressman, thank you. Well be watching your work. Congressman Michael Waltz joining us this morning. Stay with us. Well be right back. Maria welcome back. New york congresswoman Elise Stefanik demanding another probe of former michael cohen. Cheryl casone with the details. She is asking the just is the department to investigate cohen for allegations of perjury before congress. Democrats corrupt and desperate witch hunts against President Trump must come to an end. This is blatant election interference and the American People know it. Thats why today i filed an official complaint with the department of Justice Office of professional responsibility on joe bidens special counsel jack smith for his clear and illegal efforts of election interference. We will fight the democrats unjust law fare and expose the corruption whether new york, atlanta, or washington, d. C. The former trump lawyer and fixer admitted to lying before the Intelligence Committee in february of 2019. Stefanik and mike turner want the doj to take up a criminal referral against him. She accused the Biden Administration of stone walling. Harvey weinstein is facing a new trial after a previous rape conviction was overturned. He was remanded back to prison. He was sent to Bellevue Hospital for more tests for what his attorney deems multiple health issues. Alvin bragg insisted he be jailed and emphasized his office plans to retry the film he producer as soon as possible. The new trial will start sometime after labor day. A new York Appeals Court overturned the rape conviction last week. Layoffs at the tesla you unit responsible for electric vehicle charging as many customers panicked about the future of charging the pricey vehicles, layoffs halting construction at several super charger sites in texas a, amid sluggish sales growth for evs. The layoffs creating confusion at tesla. The Biden Administration promised a super charger network, its in doubt. Finally, breaking news out of peloton, they announced that Ceo Barry Mccarthy is stepping down you amid job cuts. The Company Preparing to cut can about 15 of the workforce. Board chair karen boone, will serve as a coceo. It will affect about 400 employees. The stock of peloton is up more than 7 , moving object on the news. They reported their fiscal key 3 numbers a little better than expected. Theyve struggled since people have gone back to the gym. Maria thank you so much. Take a look at futures this morning, a rally underway for stocks. Dow industrials right now up 161. The nasdaqs up 149 and s p higher by 32. Interest rates are pulling backs this morning, take a look at the 10 year treasury yield, down about 3 basis points, 4. 600 even. 4. 6 . The Federal Reserve leaving Interest Rates unchanged, acknowledging a quote, lack of progress in geting inflation back down to 2 , extending the wait and a see stance on rate cuts. The bank of england is preparing to cut rates this year. Here is jay powell comparing the rate cut pace in the us to global glangs the difference between the United States and other countries that are now considering rate cuts is that theyre just not having the kind of growth were having. Their inflation is performing about like ours or maybe a little better. We actually have the luxury of having strong growth and a strong labor market, very low unemployment, high job creation. We can be patient and well be careful and cautious as we approach the decision to cut rates whereas i think other jurisdictions may go before that. In terms of the implications maria joining me is former World Bank President , per University Distinguished fellow david malpass. Jay powell is going on and on about the strong growth. The gdp was 1. 6 in the first quarter. Its projected to be not strong in the future either. Its from the feds stand point they keep saying this idea that if they could only get the economy to be slower, inflation would come down. Im not sure it works that way. You need the economy to produce more so that prices theres competition within the economy but everything we seem to be doing is restricting the productive capacity of the economy especially Small Businesses. Theyre getting hammered by the policies that are out there. Maria you just heard jay powell comparing the u. S. To global Central Banks and a global situations, he said we have time because we have growth. Well, they have growth. We have growth. It slowed down considerably from last year, 4. 9 to 1. 6 . Did he misspeak there . Does he mean we have spending . Europe is accelerating and were kind of slowing down. Maybe its too much growth for his taste but on the europe side, theyre doing a better job allowing businesses to produce and very importantly their governments are not their fiscal deficits are not in the same league as ours. The u. S. Is projecting fiscal deficits that will stay 6 of gdp out into the future. So i think the market is beginning to pick that up and say hey, i want to be in the euro, not the u. S. Dollar under these circumstances. Maria janet yellen has become real plus call. I want to get political. I want to get your take on what shes doing. Shes giving a speech in arizona, going to talk about trump being a detriment to democracy, its an amazing speech you co you according to s from a treasury secretary. Treasury says it will sell 125 billion worth of longer term securities next week. You wrote in february in the wall street journal this. Both the Treasury Department and the fed are borrowing heavily in short maturities, feat competinh Small Business and they should rewrite and strengthen the debt limit law so it restrains spending and actionation. Action. The treasury shouldne politicized this way. Thats not the way to handle an election or give confidence in the uh uhs economy. There should be lots more comments coming out of the administration that theyre going to defend the dollar, create more productive capacity in the economy and theyre not saying enough on that. Sometimes you think they want to really go after business profits and take them away. Theyre talking about raising taxes, a lot of taxes. Maria 5 andahalf trillion in taxes in President Bidens new budget. Her speech should have been about that, how theyre going to a avoid having all the taxes come in. Were on the wrong track that way. There needs to be more on energy on all the Small Business lending that could be done through good regulatory policy, through good constraint on the spending side of the economy, of the government. Theyre running the yield curve is inverted so treasury should be borrowing at the longer part of the curve. The until number you gave for te auction they announced yesterday was odd because theyre not increasing their longterm bore hborrowing even though the National Debt is going up. 2023, the treasury borrowed 23 trillion. How do they could that . Thats because theyre rolling over short maturity bills over and over again. That benefits people that have money within the economy but it doesnt help Small Businesses at all. Theyre directly borrowing in the market that Small Businesses need to fund their inventory, to fund their accounts receivable, to hire new workers. So its the wrong one of the most important decisions that shes maki make and the governms making right now is where to borrow on the yield curve and the two decisions we saw yesterday from the treasury and the fed were that theyre going to borrow on the short end which harms production. Maria its also totally political. It will impact markets. Shes trying to it appears make sure rates stay low and stocks stay high going into the election. Thats right. Tradeoff between the bond yields and the pe multiple of the stock market, so you want to keep that propped up and plus lots of government spending, try to keep it all held together through the election. One problem with that is gold is going up. You see thats the and other commodities begin to trickle up and it undercuts the inflation goal youre trying to. Maria you also dont have any independence if youre going to always go back to the talking points of campaign and thats what shes going to do from the speech we understand from axios that were getting the clips of but shes being political with the auctions. You can imagine as you get closer and closer to the election, somebody says i dont want a difficult auction. I want to put liquidity into the market, keep everybody happy for the moment and read the statements yesterday both from treasury, they were talking all about liquidity. Hold this thing together for a few more months and then on the fed side theyre slowing down the shrinkage of their Balance Sheet. That means theyll be borrowing more from banks, banks should be lending to Small Businesses. Instead, theyre lending to the fed so it can maintain this giant bond portfolio that they were talking about yesterday tintheir statement. Maria jim grant mentioned that a couple times the other day when he was joining us here. The founder and editor of grants Interest Rate observer. Do we have that or no . I wanted you to hear what jim grant said. He said im totally expecting them to get political going into the election because they view donald trump as the enemy. Here it is. Watch. I believe that the fed itself regards potential second term for donald trump as a clear and present danger to the country. Maria so thats why theyll get involved. The fed is politically very much aligned with the Democratic Party and i think the fed without even perhaps realizing it is doing something in the way of a political move would be inclined to read the numbers in an Interest Rate reduction positive way in the back of its mind the threat of another trump presidency. Maria your reaction . Im uncomfortable going that far saying the fed is just about the election. The fed has a model thats not working. Its this old model that feels you should the fed should be restrictive to get inflation down. They shouldnt be restrictive on the supply side of the economy. So hes interpreting this as politicized fed. I think its more useful for us to think about the fed has become so powerful within the economy, which ive written directly about the idea that they should be more modest. Theyre not good at predicting inflation. Theyre not good at setting Interest Rates. Just be modest about what you can do and what you cant do and i would rather not go into this issue of it being police siced. Politicized. They were wrong. They had the rates at zero for too long. Were paying consequences because people are in the wrong part of the yield curve. Commercial real estate is hurt. The fed kept saying its going to be zero percent interest. Maria donald trump appointed jay powell to the Federal Reserve. Theres that as well. David, its always great to talk with you. Great to see you. Maria quick break and were staying on the breaking news all morning long. Police moved in on uclas encampment. Well bring you the latest when we come back.

Police officers in riot gear have moved in on the antiisrael protesters at ucla. Tthe officers seen dismantling the encampment and a arresting protesters. The attention being put on who is funding the antiisrael protests. Madison alworth is outside of Columbia University in new york city with more. Madison. Reporter good morning, maria. The antia israel protests that have been disrupting campuses across the country theyre being propped up by left wing powerhouses helping to the fund the groups organizing and at times paying individual dem demm straighters and protests. One is the open society foundation. Thit has given over 15 milliono pro palestine groups. Soros Family Charities have given directly and sometimes indirectly to groups like students for justice in palestine. The groups have been pivotal in setting up encampments and leading protests like the ones at harvard, yale and right here at columbia. Video from that groups page on instagram from monday night shows them celebrating the occupation of hamilton hall. The caption of the Instagram Video saying, quote, glory to all our martyrs. Some of the protesters in the crowd are paid. The New York Post reporting at least three college, yale, ut and better berkley, protesters e fellows of the soros opinioned u. S. Campaign for palestinian rights. The group pays protest theres thousands of dollars to spend at least eight hours a week organizing palestinian campaigns. Then there are those that are described as, quote, professionprofessional agitator. One person n got annoyed when students tried to block pro protesters interest taking over hamilton hall.

Madison alworth at columbia this morning. Todd, your reaction. Imagine living your life and getting paid maria as a paid protester. As a paid protester. I cant comment on everybodys choice of profession in this life but to me that seems like something that doesnt contribute to society in any positive way. Its only in a negative way. And thats sad that you go to school, pay all that money and have to deal with somebody like that basically trying to interfere with your education. Maria rebecca. You know, fox had a reporter at ucla in the middle of it. He was asking people why are you here and everybody was saying im not media trained, i cant talk to you. Its very clear. Multiple people said you need to talk to the media trained person. Its very clear. Its very organized. Its very funded and who are these people that are trying to disrupt our country in an Election Year its just egregious. Maria i was told from sources in the University World that theyre being directed on social media and if you had a worry about tiktok before, you know, you see tiktok in action here and others as well. Instagram, theyre getting direction from somebody. On what building to go in, you know, what to dominate, what school to go to next. I dont know how much soros is involved. He seems to be behind a lot of the evil things. Look at how cowardly the protesters are, theyve all got masks on. Civil disobedience works most effectively when there are consequences, when people see your face, you get arrested and you so strongly believe in something youre willing to go to jail for it. They are cowards. Isnt it interesting that they want to enforce borders and security, right, i mean in other countries. Maria the boards and borders work for the protesterses.
