The first segment came courtesy of President Donald Trump, who signed an executive order Thursday afternoon threatening to cut federal research funds from colleges that restrict free speech on campus. Ingraham, of course, applauded the order, going so far as to criticize as “completely absurd” speculation that Trump was acting to protect only conservative speech while liberal voices wouldn’t receive similar backing. Which makes it all the more odd that she then tried to quash liberal voices in her next segment, taking umbrage at New York University’s hiring of two liberal journalists as adjunct professors. Ingraham strongly supports the First Amendment on college campuses — but apparently only when it’s protecting voices she agrees with. “Here’s Laura Ingraham displaying my face to 2.5 million viewers and calling me a ‘little journo-terrorist,’” Lavin wrote.
