Jonathan Turley joins us right now you Know Jonathan as we look at the images Uh that have come out overnight if People are just waking up this happened About 1245 when they started to occupy The building they broke into the Building they're on camera we can see a Lot of the faces but here's the thing Not only did they break into the Building um but they also and Lawrence Kind of mentioned this a moment ago There were three or four members of the Janitorial staff who were in there and They were begging for the protesters to Let them go and they wouldn't and then One of them came out of the building and The guy goes they held me hostage what Are the legal ramifications now well Welcome to criminal law 101 and they're Learning as they go because they have Now run through the criminal code They've got trespass they have property Damage they have possible assault they Have possible false imprisonment uh That's a lot and they're now going to Get an education they talk about you Know there's a banner saying Liberation Education right uh this is going to be An education of a different type but Some of these are likely not students You know we've we've been living through This type of thing in higher education For over 20 years and the fact that they Literally took over a building is really

Quite telling because they have largely Taken over campuses for the last 20 Years with canel campaigns including my Campus but there's very little push back From universities and it leaves this Sort of you know mobocracy that that Exists on our campuses so at 2 p.m. they SP supposed to rip up the encampment by 2 p.m. uh and they said well not doing That because we want you to divest from All Israeli uh Investments and the President said no we're not going to do That but I will not call the NYPD we're Just going to suspend all of you that Don't leave you done for the semester or In definitely there's been nothing done After 2:00 they call a press conference We're not going anywhere and the faculty Rims around the encampment as if to Protect it and then they take this Building how do you expect to enforce Something at the same time say I won't Call the cops well that's what's been Reinforced on our campuses you know There's some schools that now offer a Degree in activism you know at UCLA when You had that person that did the Mandatory lecture at the medical school Uh she is an quote activist in Residence And she gave This Racist anti-semitic You know diet tribe that's become the Reality in higher education so what do The what do these students learn from This they learn that there's not many

Consequences But the fact that they haven't been Called in is not Unique Look at George Washington but now they have to don't Well I think they do they took the Building well when you start to lose Buildings at some point you're going to Have to say we need those you know we Actually need those buildings so it's Going to force the hand of Administrators they're going to have to Do something with these students say Look you cross the Rubicon it's time to Go right but Jonathan they're the ones Who would be pressing the charges you Know trespassing everything else and if The administrators are going you know They're just blowing off some steam the Way they enforced the suspension thing At 2:00 yesterday but the the Interesting thing is the cops are there They showed up at 12:45 this morning They're outside the gate and they said Um when asked by the uh the local paper The the Columbia spectator the student Paper they said would you go inside and They said yes if we hear that somebody Has been hurt so apparently bodily harm Is the red line right and look the Cities aren't doing much more in some Places in DC they occupy the actual Street outside my office with tents and The DC police have just allowed them to Do that they said it's not a good look

Right well in DC it really depends what You're protesting if you're if it Depends on the content if these were Some other protesters they wouldn't have Let this happen for a nano second so This is this I think judging by what the NYPD says is their criteria when you Take a building when you defy an order When you have four people three to four People who said I was held against my Will is that enough for the NYPD says I'm not checking with the president I'm Going in if they went in now would they Be looking at a legal problem would you Think from what we know this Justification well if there is a Criminal complaint by anyone including Those but they have to physically one of Those janit got to go out and complain I Think that someone has do but you know You can't stop the police from coming in To rescue someone so it depends but the University's made very clear that they Want this to sort of burn out well you Now have a five alarm fire you've lost a Major building and what point do you say We have to control our University if We're going to do higher education Because you can't not only lose control But lose your buildings what do you have At the end well uh coming up in the next Hour We're going to have Michael laer The uh congressman from the great state Of New York he has introduced the

Anti-Semitism awareness act where Essentially if uh there's anti-semitism M on a campus that receives Federal Funding they could cut off the federal Funding which you know the weird thing Is there are a number of Democrats in Congress who are against it and we've Seen some of them show up in support of The Palestinians and things like that But ultimately one of the complaints About this particular bill is that it's Unclear to determine when does free Speech and this is right up your Department when does Free Speech cross Into discrimination or Anti-Semitism well look we have a very Robust protection for Free Speech but it Does not include smashing Windows taking Over buildings threatening students but Also universities have an obligation not Just to satisfy the First Amendment Which is there to really control the Government but to protect speech Generally you have a professor who was Prevented from going on to the Columbia Campus because he's Jewish and he's Outspoken and so their solution was you For your own safety we're not going to Let you walk on to campus they wiped out His security card I want you to hear kjp Was asked because the president's Mia he Doesn't speak about it unless he puts on A tux and mocks it at the uh White House Correspondence address so here is kjp

Asking about the 2 pm deadline what are You going to what does the president say When the 2 p.m deadline goes if these Kids don't pick up their tents and leave Watch all Americans have the right to Peacefully protest at the same time we Have to call out any hateful rhetoric That we hear anti-Semitism is wrong and So we're going to continue to to do that But you universities and colleges make Their own decisions it is up to their Leadership we're not going to weigh in From here said he was watching he was Covering the truce talks and the hostage Talks he didn't really know if he was Even watching this right well that's the Problem we've seen for years is this Vacuum of leadership from our own Administration officials and this is a Gas it'll fill that space and by the way Many of these people are almost Professional agitators you if you look There's some Flags there from antifa There outside groups that do this all The time we hav't TAA on our campus I've Been writing about them for 10 years CU They're the most anti-free speech Movement perhaps in history they're Students and they're also activists and They're anarchists and this is what Anarchy is about right the taking over Buildings like this but what about real Quickly what about the pro uh professors Who are also on that side also in the
