He also founded the Jack Brewer Foundation to help underprivileged individuals around the world.

Phill speaks with Will Witt, a millennial who has spent the past few years sounding the alarm about liberal bias and indoctrination on college campuses. Will considered himself a “liberal” when he first entered college in 2015, but his experience there quickly opened his eyes to the hypocrisy and illiberalism of campus demagogues who spend their days inculcating radical leftism in their students and silencing conservative voices. After dropping out, Will began making videos exposing the ignorance and intolerance bred by intellectually bankrupt education, and now regularly visits campuses all over the country to speak directly to students. He is also the author of a new book, How to Win Friends and Influence Enemies: Taking On Liberal Arguments with Logic and Humor.

Lo and behold, she was pulled over and arrested on her way to work. In this episode, she tells her compelling story of becoming a victim of government repression. Phill’s daughter, Jacqueline, also joins the conversation to discuss the fundamental principles that are threatened by the overreach of public officials.
