Howard Stern and Joe Biden Ignore Anti-Israel College Protests But Focus on Jan. 6

Anti-Israel protesters have taken over various elite colleges in the United States. The demonstrations are destructive and intimidating. Columbia University canceled in-person classes for the rest of the semester because students do not feel safe when walking across campus. 

Unmasked antisemitism is at the core of the protests. Evil is emanating from our most prestigious universities.

And yet, Joe Biden never once addressed what's happening across campuses during a lengthy interview with Howard Stern on Friday. He didn't have to. Stern never asked him to.

Instead, Biden and Stern chose to focus on Jan. 6. 

Stern said Trump should not be able to run for office after inciting protests at the Capitol. Biden called Trump's actions that day "almost criminal." 

"I think I said on January 6 when they were storming the Capitol and a police officer died. Yeah. And he would say, no, he was sitting in that office off the dining area, off the Oval Office for three hours and said nothing," Biden rambled.

"I was supposed to make a speech on the economy that day. Instead, I made a speech from Dell. I was in Delaware on that issue because I was elected president, but I wasn't sworn in yet. The idea that we were actually not, I mean, it was it was derelict. It was almost criminal. He did nothing. He just sat there and watched what was happening. Not a single. And now he was a colleague, calls them patriots and victims. And I mean and says he's going to pardon them all if he's reelected."

The police officer whom Biden references was a man named Brian Sicknick. He didn't die during the protest, as Biden stated. A Washington D.C. medical examiner cited natural causes for Sicknick's death, suffering two strokes the day after Jan. 6. 

The chief medical examiner, Francisco Diaz, said that an autopsy found no evidence the 42-year-old suffered an allergic reaction to chemical irritants sprayed on him at the Capitol.

The Democrat Party reduced Sicknick's life down to a political prop, a lie. Biden perpetuated that lie on Friday.

Moreover, in what sane society is Jan. 6, 2021, more relevant to newscycle than ongoing antisemitic protests amid a bloody war with possible ramifications for the U.S?

The answer, of course, is that we do not live in a sane society. We live in a grossly politicized culture where antisemitism is often ignored for political advantages.

See, antisemitism is now almost exclusively a left-wing political belief. The most influential promoters of antisemitism are Ivy League campuses, The Squad, rappers, and BLM activists all share core ideological ideals with the Democrat Party.

The anti-Israel protests reflect poorly on the party – and thus Joe Biden.

Howard Stern might be mentally fragile. But he's not dumb. He's become a zealot. He was not about to underscore a cause that could cost his chummy, visibly feeble pal votes six months out of the election. 

Jan. 6 is a convenient diversion for the antisemitic, progressive-led ugliness on college campuses.
