Parents Love School Vouchers, Anti-Semitism Gets Worse on Campus, Our Ticking Debt Bomb

Subscribe to 3 Martini LunchSubscribe

Hillsdale College Radio General Manager and Radio Free Hillsdale Hour Host Scot Bertram is in for Jim. Today, Scot and Greg open with a somber update on the horrific mass shootings in Maine last night and noting that we finally have a new Speaker of the House.

Then they serve up their martinis, starting with the unsurprising revelations that parents in states with new school choice laws are loving the freedom to choose the right schools for their kids and use their own tax dollars to pay for it through vouchers. And of course the left is furious,

They also chronicle the onslaught of anti-Semitism that is only intensifying on many college campuses - from students at the University of Washington calling for the end of Israel and Zionists to a Northwetern University professor cheering on and accommodating demonstrators who cut class to the terrifying scene at Cooper Union in New York City, where Jewish students had to be locked in the library to protect them from a pro-Hamas protest that was banging on the doors and screaming at them.

Finally, they fume over the thoroughly predictable debt catastrophe that is already bad and about to get MUCH worse. And both parties are to blame.
