Today on "Sara Gonzales Unfiltered" is a no-holds-barred analysis of today's biggest stories. We take a deep dive into the controversial demands of pro-Hamas protesters at the University of Chicago and their request for HIV tests, dental dams, and Plan B; the exam cancellation demands of traumatized Columbia law students after police confronted anti-Israel protests; and the patriotic Ole Miss counter-protesters singing the national anthem.

"gravy train" of corruption plaguing career politicians. Sara Gonzales and guest Matthew Marsden analyze the potential VP picks for Donald Trump's 2024 run, including Governor Doug Burgum and Senators Marco Rubio, J.D. Vance, and Tim Scott. Marsden provocatively suggests Tulsi Gabbard could be a strategic "star power" vice presidential choice to attract independents and moderates, despite her Democratic affiliation. Look ahead to the 2024 election as they analyze whether Biden could gain from a Trump indictment based on new polls. Uplifting clips show Trump being cheered as a savior by first responders in New York. Gonzales also dives into the Dan Schneider lawsuit against the "Quiet on Set" documentary over insinuations he sexually abused child actors, despite his bizarre public apology.

She questions whether they truly care about the First Amendment anymore in light of violent UCLA protests by pro-Hamas students.
