The news report is in the first 2 minutes of the video. The rest is just interviews and such on the subject.
I am neither con nor lib - and I realize Trump is doing this to help cons specifically - but I have ZERO problem with this order.
Free speech is - IMO - CRITICAL to a healthy nation.
When I was in university, free speech on both sides was strongly encouraged. It DEFINITELY does NOT seem to be that way anymore. If Ann Coulter (who I am no fan of AT ALL) wants to speak on a campus - people should not be able to stop her from speaking. If you don't like what she has to say - don't listen to it. But trying to muzzle her is deeply wrong and weak.
And if a college/university is going to receive federal funds - the LEAST they can do is make sure their campuses promote free speech.
I am not sure what difference this order will make. But I see no way that it can realistically do much damage.
I think Trump got this one right (for a change).
