LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: In a recent episode of 'Watters' World', Jesse Watters, known for his candid commentary on Fox News, delivered a scathing critique of President Biden's handling of the ongoing campus protests, igniting a fierce debate both on and offline.

Watters minced no words as he lambasted the Biden administration's perceived inaction, even suggesting a deliberate attempt to sabotage their own electoral prospects.

Jesse Watters challenges FBI's claims on protest monitoring

"Chris Wray at the FBI says they don't even monitor protests. Do you even believe that?" Watters exclaimed, his tone reflecting a mix of disbelief and frustration. "Of course they monitor protests. They monitor like a half a dozen MAGA hat wearers."

Watters' argument centers on the contention that the Biden administration's silence in the face of escalating campus unrest constitutes a grave dereliction of duty.

He alleges that these protests, rather than targeting government policies as in the past, are now directed at fellow students, resulting in intimidation, harassment, and violence that violate civil rights and Title IX regulations.



 

"Now they're directing their anger at fellow students. They're intimidating them, they're harassing them, they're targeting them. Sometimes in UCLA they're not even allowed to walk freely on campus

"If you're the Biden administration, you just slash funding. Because this is a Title IX violation. This is a civil rights violation."

Moreover, Watters took aim at Biden's recent policy pronouncements, particularly regarding the Israel-Palestine conflict and student loan forgiveness. "Biden came out after three days of hiding," Watters asserted, "and he says we're going to import more Hamas refugees. And then he says we're going to pay off everybody's student loans. It's like he wants to lose the election."

Outcry on social media fuels calls for Joe Biden's impeachment

Watters' remarks have sparked a firestorm of criticism and condemnation online, with calls for Biden's impeachment gaining traction across social media platforms. Users cite perceived mishandling of the protests and other policy decisions as grounds for removal from office.

One user said, "He needs to be impeached for he has broken his oath day after day.."



 

Another said, "It's like he knows he will not lose the election and is deliberately offending patriotic Americans!"



 

One user replied, "I agree that Biden is trying to lose but I can’t see it happening."



 

Another said, "It’s just another confusion tactic!?!"



 

One user commented, "And he cancels more student debt WHICH is unconstitutional!!!"
