Hi. so I listened to the Podcast with great intensity. I had a discussion with friends at dinner regarding Mahmoud Khalil. It is a difficult topic to have a conversation about because, I believe, people are confusing Khalils right to DUE PROCESS, with whether or not he is guilty of a crime. I think your podcast is wrong when it says that people on the left think this is a free speech issue vs an immigration issue. Rather, I think people on Left believe he is entitled to due process, whereas peo…
agree on due process, but find it hilarious that's the position that the left takes when they throw the concept into the wind flippantly on everything else ("me too" - duke rape case - George Floyd - etc.)
My point was the left often ignores the concept due process when it benefits them and jumps to “immediately guilty” conclusions.
Ah. Yes. I think, in general I agree with you. I like to look at each case on its merits. I am not a generalist and I don’t like stereotyping. I just know that I often find myself to be more liberal with social issues and more conservative with fiscal issues. And, I try to make the distinction between inexperienced, yet passionate, college students, and real terrorist sympathizers, of which I believe Khalil is!
