MAGA host gets humiliated on her own show - Brian Tyler Cohen
Here are the key points from the video:
- Illiteracy rate dispute: The host (Katie Pavlich) claimed the US has a 54% illiteracy rate; the guest corrects this, stating the actual rate is approximately 19%, while acknowledging that reading comprehension remains a genuine concern.
- Education funding cuts: Brian argues the real cause of poor education outcomes is the Trump administration's actions, including withholding ~$7 billion in federal education funding and terminating 730 in-progress grants worth over $2 billion.
- Red vs. blue state education scores: According to NAEP data cited, the top 5 states for education are all blue states, while the bottom 10 are predominantly red states.
- ICE protests and student walkouts: The debate centers on whether students leaving school to protest ICE is justified; the guest defends it as a First Amendment right, while the host frames it as irresponsible.
- Alex Pretti and Renee Good cases: Brian argues there is no justification for the deaths of these individuals at the hands of ICE, criticizing the "ongoing investigation" deflection and the claim that prior minor incidents warranted lethal force.
- Hypocrisy on tyranny: Brian highlights that Katie Pavlich herself tweeted in 2013 that the US could become a tyrannical state, contrasting that with her current defense of ICE's actions.
