 

In this week’s episode, I dive deep into the state of protests in America and the line between peaceful demonstration and lawlessness. Drawing on my family’s immigrant roots and my experience as an attorney and political strategist, I address the complex questions surrounding our First Amendment rights, the actions of elected leaders, and the consequences of current immigration policies. With a focus on developments in California and Massachusetts, I share personal perspectives on civic engagement, public safety, and the pressing need for reform.



I confront the controversies around looting, violence in the streets, and the responsibilities of those in public service. I address the strain on local and state resources caused by the ongoing immigration crisis, highlight the struggles faced by both immigrants and native citizens, and call out leaders, regardless of party, for fanning the flames rather than solving problems. Throughout the episode, I challenge the status quo, demand a return to decency in governance, and argue for a fair but firm approach to both protest and immigration that can lead to a better future for everyone.



“A peaceful fucking protest has nothing to do with burning up cars, looting stores, or throwing stones at police officers.” ~Jennifer Nassour

Women on the right need a safe space to discuss politics, policy, news, and ownership over the fact that it is ok to agree to disagree. It is our First Amendment right to free speech. Before we can even out the number of women in our local, state, & federal governments, we need to empower women to feel comfortable and confident discussing these and other topics.

My name is Jennifer. I’m a single mom of three girls living in Boston. I’m a lawyer with two political science degrees, and I have no problem talking politics with people who disagree with me.

I spent three years as the Chairman of the Massachusetts GOP and ran for the very liberal Boston City Council. I’m a frequent analyst on Newsmax, Fox News Radio, and Boston Media. As a Republican in a blue state, I know a few things about how to disagree agreeably.
