Hillary Clinton spoke at the School of International and Public Affairs at Columbia University this Monday, where she was met with resistance from a brave heckler.
The man called on Hillary Clinton to speak about Joe Biden’s “warmongering speech” and his billions of foreign aid that will be sent to various countries.
The two got into a yelling match with each other, trying to speak over each other.

The Washington Examiner speaks more on the heated exchange:
“President Joe Biden is calling for $100 billion of funding for Israel, Taiwan, and Ukraine, and we’re supposed to just bundle these together and pretend like we’re going to rush to World War III, and we’re all just going to let Hillary Rodham Clinton sit here,” the heckler said before an official interfered.
Clinton replied by telling the man, “This is not the way to have a conversation,” adding, “You’re welcome to come talk to me afterwards.”

And furthermore:
“The fact of the matter is that the American people’s voice are what needs to be heard because our president is not speaking for the American people and neither are you,” the man said.
“Yeah, they are being heard,” Clinton replied. “Well, that’s your opinion,” she said in response to the audience member saying Biden was not speaking on behalf of the public.
“I’m going to exercise my free speech,” the man said, before Clinton replied, “But it’s not free speech when you are disrupting everybody else’s opportunity to speak.”
That man is doing this country proud.
We need more people who will speak up and demand these politicians be held accountable for how they lead this world to disaster.
Many have come out on X voicing their support for the heckler:

The Washington Post shares more on Biden’s $106 billion foreign aid package:
The foreign aid proposal, far larger than even many Democrats anticipated a few days ago, represents a direct challenge to isolationist voices in the Republican Party and some skeptics of U.S. military support for Israel on the left. It aims to pair $14 billion in aid for Israel with a full year’s worth of funding for Ukraine, roughly $61 billion, while also including roughly $14 billion for immigration priorities and $10 billion for humanitarian aid, as well as more funding to counter China’s influence in Asia and the developing world.
With the request, the White House is aiming to overcome the piecemeal approach that Congress has taken toward funding the war in Ukraine and instead provide Kyiv with the aid it needs for a full year. The White House has defended this national security push as essential at a time of mounting geopolitical instability and necessary to demonstrate U.S. resolve against the nation’s adversaries in Moscow, Tehran and Beijing.
Politicians like Joe Biden are entirely disconnected from reality.
Where does he think 106 billion dollars come from?
The U.S. is drowning in debt, and we funnel billions of dollars into foreign countries.
Money that we will NEVER see again.
