It's Thursday, October 9th.
I'm Jane Costin, and this is What A Day.
The show congratulating Colorado Republican Representative Lauren Boebert on launching her re-election campaign with a time-tested message centered on everyday Coloradans.
Are aliens real?
Her newest fundraising email reads in part, quote, She adds, On today's show,
Israel and Hamas agree to the first phase of the American peace plan,
and back at home, President Donald Trump vows to dismantle Antifa,
the scariest group that has ever, never existed.
But let's start with national security.
Actually,
what I'm going to talk about today has less to do with national security and more to do with you.
Specifically, your right to hold views that the United States government doesn't like.
Like, say, your right to burn an American flag.
which is protected by the First Amendment, despite whatever Trump said on Wednesday.
We took the freedom of speech away because that's been through the courts.
And the court said, yeah, freedom of speech.
But what has happened is when they burn a flag, it agitates and irritates crowds.
They've never seen anything like it on both sides.
And you end up with riots.
OK, so none of that is true.
