What the hosts said

BFox News posted a video from UT Tyler, and it's a rough one.
BWait, a student tore down an American flag at a Turning Point USA booth and swung a prop cane?
BThat's the video. TPUSA says he struck a field rep and two students. Campus police arrested him.
BA prop cane? That's not a political argument, that's a police matter.
BAnd the student allegedly called them "fascist pieces" first. So this wasn't an accident.
BRight. Political anger on campus is boiling over—and it's not just one side.
BNo, but only one side brought a prop. This goes viral for all the wrong reasons.
BIf that's what happened, ripping down someone's flag at a table is not free speech, and swinging a cane makes it worse.
BPeople defending him will say free speech. It's not. You don't get to destroy property.
BI agree. But I don't want this one incident turned into "all college students are violent." Most aren't.
BAgreed. But this one should be prosecuted. You can't cane people over a booth.
BNo argument here.
BAnd somewhere a dean is typing "free expression zone" right now.
BPlease. The flag was on their table, not in a zone.
BSpeaking of Washington and chips—Reuters posted on X: lawmakers are pushing new China chip rules after the Nvidia CEO allegations.
BSo the real battleground stays in semiconductors. The personal stuff is noise.
BRight. The Hill wants to tighten export controls further, and American chip companies feel the cost.
BThey feel the security risk more. It's a live fight before the session ends.
BAnd the market is watching every word.
BAs always.
BPolitico posted that John Thune won't take sides in the 2028 presidential race.
BSmart. He's majority leader; he has to keep his caucus together.
BBut it's never that clean. The pressure to pick will start the moment a candidate slips.
BHe's saying no now. That buys him a few months.
BThen the calls get louder. Count on it.
BA few months in Washington is a political lifetime.
