We're witnessing a Marxist revolution

0:02

take place around the country at colleges

0:05

and universities, a hostile takeover,

0:07

if you will, Hatred for America,

0:09

hatred for the Jews, hatred

0:12

for all things right, hatred

0:14

for sanity. So what's it

0:16

like to be on the ground at

0:19

one of these universities. We're going to talk

0:21

to New York City council Woman Ina

0:23

Verdikov of District forty eight. She's

0:25

been on the ground at Columbia University

0:27

and she's Jewish, so this is near and dear to her heart.

0:30

Stay tuned for councilwomen. Ina Vernikov,

0:37

cooll Councilwoman. I appreciate you

0:40

making the time. I know you've been on

0:42

the ground at Columbia University.

0:45

What have you seen? You know, what did people

0:48

know about what's really going on right now?

0:50

So, first of all, the

0:53

Jewish students have left the

0:55

school.

0:56

We've met it was about three

0:58

students that are on cares. One

1:00

of them was you know,

1:02

came over to us when we were standing there

1:05

when we came over, and he

1:08

really wanted to tell us about his experiences

1:10

and experiences of his other

1:14

students, his friends. Is his colleagues,

1:16

and when we went to the Hilal and Sabad,

1:19

we spoke to about another students

1:21

who are the only brave ones.

1:24

You know to even remain on campus.

1:27

A lot of them was essentially crying

1:30

and tell it was how florable

1:32

it's better for them, how petrified

1:35

it's meant to be a Jewish student. As all the

1:37

carempus, pretty much all of that had

1:39

removed any objects that identify

1:42

them as being Jewish. They removed

1:44

the yamakas, they removed their

1:46

stars of David. They basically

1:48

they are going to walk around on campus. They

1:51

they are afraid to be identifiably

1:53

Jewish. And honestly,

1:56

for me, as an immigrant found

1:58

in the former Soviet Union or I know

2:00

that members of my family had

2:02

to change their last stings to attend

2:05

university and to

2:08

be involved in higher learning because

2:11

they were going to get bad grades, they were going

2:13

to get kicked out.

2:14

They had to move to other cities to

2:17

go to school.

2:17

If they wanted to be doctors and lawyers, they

2:20

couldn't just attend the diversity if

2:23

the administrators knew that they were Jewish.

2:26

And there isn't kind of scary for someone

2:28

like me because we you

2:31

know, we escaped to America, just

2:33

like many immigrants did from

2:35

those kind of places, for a

2:38

better light, for a lfe, for freedom,

2:40

for a place that was chronels to us

2:42

to be a place of freedom and powers and acceptance

2:45

of everyone where we would be able to

2:47

practice really practical So sour religion,

2:50

have freedom of speech be identified

2:52

with Jewish to not be a praid to walk the streets,

2:55

and to realize that it's happening.

2:57

The United States in two thousand and eighty four is

3:00

so incredibly scary for our

3:02

communities.

3:03

You know, and it's gone too bad.

3:04

You know, Columbia is now going to online

3:07

learning. You know what kind of signs

3:09

are these Jewish students saying,

3:12

you know, what sort of chance are they having to be subjected

3:14

to? At least the ones who have decided to

3:16

stay, you know, tell

3:19

us a little bit about like how bad

3:21

it is right now.

3:22

So the online en arment is pretty much

3:24

for Jewish students because you

3:27

know, others aren't a fleet to be on campus

3:29

and society and the problemass

3:31

supporters and those innate encampments.

3:34

They're not afraid. They're walking around

3:36

freely. You know, when I was there, every

3:39

third.

3:39

Students I would say it was wearing a qulifea.

3:42

So I'm not to doing against somewhere

3:44

a cliched, but it's

3:46

obvious that they're not afraid. So we're objects

3:49

that identify them with supporters or

3:51

whatever cause they're trying to represent.

3:53

But Jewish students are now and you

3:56

know the chances.

3:57

They are here is they

4:00

were rich of the cels will be Free, which has

4:02

been now deemed as antisthematic by Congress.

4:05

That is well, Dutch to America. If

4:07

they everyone saw the photographs.

4:09

Of students standing there next

4:12

to Jewish students who are just thinking, who

4:15

had American and Israeli flats, holding

4:18

American Israeli flats and the student

4:20

was holding a sign saying

4:22

these are alcostals

4:25

next targets. Uh.

4:27

And of course Jewish it's going

4:29

to be petrified of that.

4:30

They hear Dutch to Jews, Dutch America,

4:33

Jews out the occupy

4:35

Colombia. What is the occupy

4:38

Colombia? What didn't that possibly

4:40

mean other than clear out Colombia

4:42

of James.

4:43

I don't think it's ever got only scary for us.

4:45

Are these students just ignorant or

4:48

or are they evil? Because you know, essentially

4:50

what they're saying is if they deem you

4:53

a colonizer, or they deem you a

4:55

quote unquote you know oppressor, you

4:57

know that you deserve to be annihilated,

5:00

You know you deserve to be raped? Do you deserve to be

5:02

murdered? I mean, so they do they

5:04

know what they're hearing for. Are

5:07

they ignorant? Are evil?

5:09

Or what do you attribute it to?

5:11

So I think there's a couple of things that play

5:13

are I think number one it's

5:15

that our universities have

5:18

been experiencial with Marxist

5:20

inductrinal issue for many,

5:23

many decades, where students

5:25

are bray lashed to believe that

5:27

Jews are white privileged

5:30

oppressors or colonizers

5:32

and settlers and are committee

5:34

of genocide.

5:36

They mix up Jews with israel I.

5:38

Mean, these are Jewish students that have nothing

5:41

to do with the Israeli government or the actions

5:43

of the Israeli governments.

5:44

These are American Jews who just want to go to.

5:46

School at learn, But they are

5:49

demmed colonizers of pastors

5:52

and rich white privileged kids

5:54

who deserve this kind of treatment. So

5:56

who cannot possibly be victims of

5:59

ant expenditism because they are pressors

6:01

and columnists. And

6:03

the funny thing about all of this is

6:05

is that most of these protesters,

6:07

you know, like I said, was there at Columbia

6:10

and mystique who they are. Most

6:12

of them are white privileged

6:15

kids. And if they both be the Lee universities,

6:18

obviously they come for the rich elitist

6:21

homes. And I think that

6:23

they are basically trying to atone

6:25

for their students so called sins

6:27

of being a white and riction privilege

6:30

by standing up for these so called oppressors.

6:33

So I think this is one element

6:35

that's happening.

6:36

And then there are many students that we actually

6:38

heard this from a lot of the Jewish students that we spoke

6:40

to, which is that a lot

6:42

of these kids that have nothing

6:44

to do with either side are just you

6:47

know, throwing on these coin theaters that they

6:49

are standing there enchanting.

6:50

The law because this is the cool thing

6:53

to do.

6:53

And if you don't do it, then you're going to be ousted,

6:56

and you know you're looking popular and not and cool.

6:58

You have to create just go along with what they're doing.

7:00

They have no idea about they're topping mital. We're

7:02

seeing for these age of us where when

7:04

asked questions they have no

7:07

idea what it is that they're standing up for.

7:09

So it's like we have one

7:11

side and these kids who are.

7:12

Completely indoctri atic and believe some

7:15

of it is completely false.

7:16

One sign is just going along

7:19

look down.

7:19

Then I think there is also obviously huge

7:21

elements that just hate Jews.

7:24

You've got more with the councilwoman, But first,

7:26

it's been over six months since the brutal

7:28

attack by Hamas and our brothers and sisters

7:30

in Israel. Since then, the attacks on

7:33

Israel have increased, with Iran and its proxies

7:35

launching an attack of the hundreds

7:37

of drones and missiles. The International

7:39

Fellowship of Christians and Jews is on the ground

7:42

now addressing all urgent needs,

7:44

and that's why I'm partnering with IFCJ today.

7:46

Your life saving donation today can help provide

7:49

security needs like placing bomb shelters

7:51

and communities in Israel that need it the most. When

7:53

the siren goes off, people have fifteen seconds

7:55

or less to get to safety. IFCJ

7:58

has helped renovate and install in your life three

8:00

thousand bomb shelters today. As Israel

8:02

and our people live with the harsh reality of terror

8:04

every day. Your support will help

8:06

address emergency security needs

8:09

such as food and utility, equipment for bomb

8:11

shelters, flack jackets, and other essentials

8:13

for the people of Israel. We're asking listeners

8:16

to give fifty dollars or any amount to help

8:18

provide life saving aid visit support

8:20

IFCJ dot org. That's one word

8:22

support, IFCJ dot org. You

8:28

know what worries me, is it it seems

8:30

like we have a future generation of

8:33

young people who are our bloodthirsty.

8:35

Oh absolutely, this is this. You

8:37

look at what's going on. There's thousands

8:39

of these students doing this. There's

8:42

all these injen It's across universities

8:44

in the country.

8:45

And we have some very scammy to

8:47

think.

8:48

That these are the future leaders

8:51

of America who are going to go on

8:53

to become doctors, lawyers,

8:55

eeos. They've been around of companies, their

8:57

boy to legislate, they're going to policy.

9:01

What kind of a future does currently

9:03

have if these are the leaders

9:05

that were reading at college

9:08

emphasis.

9:08

You know, and it's not just students either. I mean, you know

9:11

you're in New York City or on the council. I mean,

9:13

you know, we've seen some horrific

9:16

things in the streets

9:18

of New York City just you know, I think

9:20

there was even a.

9:21

Swastika at one point and people holding it up.

9:23

I mean, just people in the streets of New York

9:25

openly cheering on you

9:27

know, harmas. I mean, did you feel

9:30

safe in New York City right

9:32

now?

9:33

Let alone? It coast down?

9:35

Is something really important that I want to

9:37

mention before we get some of my colleagues in the

9:39

council. When

9:42

I was at Columbia, I actually stumbled

9:44

on a rally that was organized

9:47

like facults and members.

9:48

Of Columbia University.

9:50

They were about I would say, about eighty

9:52

faculty members staying on the steps and

9:54

thousands of students still

9:56

rollusing them, and I stayed

9:59

for the entire thing.

10:00

I wanted to hear what it was they were going to say.

10:03

And they were talking about in

10:05

their student suspensions,

10:07

and they said the Rownroad for academic

10:09

freedom. And that's

10:11

basically the narrative that I think a lot

10:13

of the media strains to portray, and that scenarrative

10:16

going around that there is a

10:18

lack of academic freedom and the ROYPD

10:21

has rated these campuses.

10:22

And these are peaceful protesters.

10:24

First of all, these faculty members

10:27

not one of them. I listened to the entire

10:30

to all of his teachers. There were about eight

10:32

appults where were speaking, not one

10:34

of them on that day. As mentioned the fact

10:36

that there are virtually no

10:39

Jewish students that are left on campus,

10:42

not one of them condemned the harassment

10:44

and bullying or Jewish students, the

10:47

death threats, the chants,

10:50

they support the prahamas

10:53

that has been obviously going

10:55

on. I mean, do we think that hundreds

10:57

and about students across America

10:59

a lot ing about what's happening. We see

11:01

videos that we

11:04

cannot you know, we can't say that's not happening,

11:07

and not a single faculty member

11:09

are mentioned the Jewish students and

11:11

all of that is all what's happening,

11:14

and this narrative that

11:16

it's all about free speech and epidemic

11:19

freedom. Do they support

11:21

the students that are standing right outside

11:24

Colombia with holding

11:26

signs glorifying

11:29

Zook cars of baby who murdered

11:31

six innocent civilians and was involved.

11:33

With two shootings. Is

11:36

that academic freedom? Is it epidemic

11:38

freedom?

11:38

To India, the Jewish students, death to

11:41

all of death to the Jews, get out of our campus,

11:43

dying out gyms out is

11:45

that academic swedom it is

11:47

and the sapatine is joy on

11:50

multiple campuses.

11:51

They joined these projects, They

11:54

partner with them to create human chains,

11:56

not allowing Jews to come on to certain

11:58

areas of college campus.

12:01

When these students and their caravans

12:03

pay enormous money sixty

12:06

thousand dollars a year, three hundred and sixty thousand

12:08

dollars on education at Coluba University

12:11

and they are now also enter soil.

12:13

Areas on a campus.

12:15

Of course, they don't feel safe and Jews

12:17

have not felt safe in this city, in

12:20

this country for a couple of years

12:22

now. It's been really sasturing. But

12:24

it is the worst at campuses

12:27

because that is really where it starts. And if

12:29

you look at nineteen thirty eight Germany

12:32

and Austria where gyms were

12:34

not allowed to connect onto a university,

12:37

where they were physically blocked from

12:40

coming in, and to think that

12:42

this.

12:42

Is what's happened in the United States, I

12:44

had little wars.

12:46

It's it's

12:48

disgusting, and you know, I'm

12:50

glad that you're bringing light to it.

12:53

You know, real quick, before we go, is there anything

12:55

you'd like to leave us with?

12:56

I just want to send the message

12:59

to the Jewish student.

13:00

As difficult as

13:03

it may be, I

13:05

believe that all of you need to

13:08

get together, be brave,

13:10

and come back to campuses.

13:13

I know it's a controversial fans. I know

13:15

that's some power and sort of to be happy to hear

13:17

it up. But I believe that

13:19

you need to do that.

13:20

I am willing to go to campus and

13:23

stay there and stay there for as all

13:25

as they need to. That's why I want to

13:27

Columbia the other day. We

13:29

cannot be afraid and run away

13:32

and hide. If we do that, we let

13:34

the terror supporters and the anti stemit

13:37

win.

13:37

We'll leave it right there.

13:39

What a succinct way to end it with a strong

13:41

message, Councilwoman Vernikhov. I

13:43

appreciate what you're doing. We'll keep bringing

13:45

attention to it. We appreciate you doing so

13:48

as well and standing up for these students.

13:50

Thank you so much for having me those Counselwoman

13:53

na Vernikov from New York

13:55

City. We appreciate her making the time to join

13:58

the show. Appreciate you guys at home for listening every

14:00

Monday and Thursday, but you can listen throughout the week

14:02

under Thank John Cassio and my producer for putting

14:04

the show together.
