LAURA INGRAHAM (HOST): I have concluded, and this is a solid conclusion, that we don't really have to go to China or Russia to find the new censors. The new censorship is fully embraced by the American left. Because Donald Trump connects on a variety of key issues, domestic issues -- on immigration, on deregulation, on trade -- on these core issues that help define our current economic standing and our cultural, demographic, economic make up, the left wants to remove those from the menu of subjects that we can actually discuss.
Because to discuss the caravans, to call them invaders, or to say that they're a horde, or a mob, means that you have to support mass shootings. If you call the thousands of people who had pushed passed barricades, ignored immigration officials in both Guatemala and Mexico, and now the new caravan throwing sticks and rocks at police as they try to push through that Suchiate River crossing, then you are essentially embracing white nationalism. So if you call this what it is, which is rank lawlessness being fomented by those political forces on the left, both in Central America, Venezuela, and some in the United States, if you call it what it is, the new censors will try to demonize you and marginalize you.
