Former Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker is charging that the nation is “under siege” from the political left.<\/p>\n
During a speech Friday at the Conservative Political Action Conference, the former two-term Republican governor emphasized, “America is under siege. We see it on our campuses. We see it in our culture, and increasingly we see it in our communications with the censorship from Big Tech, left-wing professors, liberal activists, mass media, even some of our major corporations are attempting to cancel conservative thought.”<\/p>\n

They just want to cancel.”<\/p>\n The former governor claimed that “half of all the liberal students say it’s OK to infringe upon the free speech rights of other students because they offend others. Apparently, they offend anybody except for conservatives. Let’s be clear, young people did not learn this on their own, years of left-wing professors and increasingly large numbers of radical activists on campus have shaped a new generation of snowflakes.”<\/p>\n
