Dr. Atlas interviews Harmeet Dhillon, a nationally recognized attorney whose focus is employment law, First Amendment rights, election law and commercial litigation. She is a trial lawyer and the managing partner at Dhillon Law Group in San Francisco. She's also CEO and founder of the Center for American Liberty and the co-chair of the Republican National Lawyers Association. They have a wide-ranging conversation about key issues like free speech, the current state of our system of justice and its politicization, and separation of powers essential to our government's function.

Campuses are overtaken by protest encampments, Jewish students are targeted, and higher ed leaders can’t manage to condemn antisemitism while protecting free speech. But the problems go deeper—like the plagiarism that university faculty would never tolerate in their students. On other fronts, what’s up with all these bans on lab-grown meat?

Research Fellow Benjamin Ginsberg, author of The New American Anti-Semitism interviewed on The Drive with Trey Radel on WFSX radio (FL). College campuses are a toxic mix of no conservative or moderate faculty, naive and gullible students who can be convinced of just about anything, and the rise of administrators who are foolish and timid. Administrators are afraid to confront the left, Ginsberg says. This was made evident when the heads of Penn, Harvard and MIT testified in front of congress in December of 2023.

Research Fellow Benjamin Ginsberg, author of The New American Anti-Semitism interviewed on Northern Alliance Radio with Brad Carlson on WWTC radio (MN). Naive children at college campuses are being indoctrinated by professional organizers, says Ginsberg, who provides historic examples of indoctrinating children. Students are not taught history or civics. Instead, Ginsberg says, they are taught the United States is a ruthless, repressive and imperialistic power.
