For those who don't spend their Sunday mornings glued to the television - and
their Sunday afternoons attempting to dig through a week's worth of network
and cable news media spin - The Daily Wire has compiled a short summary of
what you may have missed.

This week's spin revolves around the anti-Israel protests that spread like
wildfire across college campuses around the United States - and how unpopular
those protests have become as students took control of public spaces,
harassed Jewish students, barricaded themselves in campus buildings, and
vandalized property. How unpopular is that, you ask? Unpopular enough that
legacy outlets, if there weren't enough Democrats willing to criticize the
protesters, brought in Republicans to do it for them.

On ABC News' "This Week," host Jonathan Karl brought in Senator Tom Cotton
(R-AR) to discuss the protests, and Cotton made it clear that he had no
patience for protests that were essentially parroting Hamas terrorist talking
points and then hiding behind the First Amendment, claiming their destructive
behavior was protected.

On campus protests, GOP Sen. Tom Cotton tells @JonKarl that
college administrators should have sent in law enforcement
"the very first day they set up their tents."

Cotton first laid into the schools for allowing the protests to carry on as
long as they did, saying that the schools should have sent security in to
prevent or immediately disband illegal encampments the moment the first tent
went up.

"These students on campuses, they deserve our contempt. They also deserve our
mockery," Cotton said, referencing some of the "demands" - including gluten-
free and vegan food delivery options - made by students who were illegally
squatting in campus buildings.

Cotton also asked why schools had been so reluctant to stop the protests
before they turned into full-scale occupations, saying, "Where were the
liberal administrators and liberal politicians sending in the police on the
very first day?"

Sen. Tom Cotton pushes for an even stronger police response
to pro-Palestinian protests on college campuses.

Rep. Ro Khanna (D-CA) joined Margaret Brennan on CBS' "Face the Nation,"
where he complained that the protesters who were engaging in acts of
vandalism and violence - and those who were sharing anti-semitic signs and
slogans - were damaging the credibility of what could have been a peaceful
and effective protest.

"Those few protesters who are inciting violence or engaging in that kind of
antisemitism are diminishing the thousands of young people who simply want
the war to end. I guess I would say, look to John Lewis or Dr. King - they,
in their protests, were above reproach," he said.

Rep. @RoKhanna (D-CA) calls for college campus protesters to
show "discipline" amid reports that some have called for
violence:

Khanna went on to suggest that President Joe Biden should visit the campuses
where protests are taking place - some of which have been deemed too unsafe
for students to attend their final weeks of class or even take final exams -
and equated students chanting Hamas talking points while they blocked Jewish
students from walking through their "camps" to the anti-war protests of the
Vietnam era.

"We have to understand this is a defining moment for this generation," he
said.

"I think the president should and will get out there on
campuses" where there are protests over the Gaza war, says
Rep. @RoKhanna (D-CA).

generation," he adds, comparing it to the protests against

On CNN, "State of the Union" anchor Jake Tapper brought in former Senator Ben
Sasse (R-NE), who is now serving as the President of University of Florida -
and Sasse argued that the First Amendment should protect speech but did not
necessarily extend to actions - especially when those actions included
violence and destruction of property.

Sasse noted that protests had not disrupted the commencement ceremonies on
his campus, but said that "the line is between speech and action" - and
students understood that. He said that rather than clear out an illegal
encampment, his administration had simply made the rules clear so that they
didn't set one up in the first place.

"I think the line is between speech and action."

On "Meet the Press," NBC anchor Kristen Welker discussed the protests with
former astronaut and Senator Mark Kelly (D-AZ). Kelly said that once
protesters crossed the line into taking illegal actions - engaging in
violence, acts of vandalism, or other crimes - there was no reason for police
not to step in and stop them.

"When they cross a line and when they commit crimes, they should be arrested.
That's the appropriate thing to do," he said.

Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) took things a step further during his appearance
on "Fox News Sunday," telling anchor Shannon Bream that he'd support a move
to revoke travel visas for any foreign students who showed support for the
terrorist group Hamas.

"Joe Biden - and he hasn't done it because he's weak and he's feeble - but
Joe Biden very early on should have done as I asked him to do back in
October, if you're in the streets of the United States, you're here as a
visitor, on a visa," Rubio said. "You're not an American, you're here on a
visa and you're here to teach or you're here to go to school, and you're out
there chanting on behalf of Hamas and Hezbollah - these terrorist groups, who
by the way also hate America - we should revoke your visa."

The only Sunday show to not get the memo was MSNBC's "Inside with Jen Psaki."
The former White House Press Secretary instead continued to beat what appears
to be the only drum she has - she invited Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD) to join
her, and they took turns complaining about what Americans could expect from
another term with former President Donald Trump.

.@RepRaskin: "Americans are forewarned. If you look at the
things he's talking about doing mass roundups and incarceration
and deportations. That is an authoritarian program. That's
right out of the authoritarian playbook of Mussolini and
beyond." pic.twitter.com/W5ZqTAedy6
