## Resource

A 16-year-old student, Marco Hunter-Lopez, was admonished by Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-Md.) for showing concern that a Muslim group showed up uninvited to a school event to hand out Qurans. Glenn speaks to Marco about the interaction, what he felt in the moment, and the change he hopes will come from this. American Freedom Alliance fellow Peter Mcilvenna joins to theorize what the U.K. will look like 10 years from now if it continues down this dangerous path. Rebel News founder Ezra Levant joins to discuss how his news company is suing U.K. Prime Minister Keir Starmer for banning two of its journalists from entering the U.K. to keep them from attending Tommy Robinson’s Unite the Kingdom rally.
