What started as routine leftist protests in April quickly turned into a battle for the UCLA campus — and the Daily Caller’s investigative reporters were on the ground to document it all.
April protests over the Israel-Hamas war soon grew into a massive encampment on the picturesque UCLA quad. Anti-Israel activists dug in their heels. They put up barricades, installed security check points and kept strict control over the flow of people and information that got in or out of their territory.
The Daily Caller’s new documentary, “Anarchy U,” captured it all as it unfolded in real time: the violence, the building takeovers, the protesters’ desperate attempt to hold onto their fortress as police and counter-protesters sought to tear it down.
Hours of original footage shows how this rag tag band of weak leftists held out a lot more successfully than you’d expect. So the real question becomes: who was helping them, and how were they so well prepared?
“Anarchy U” is available exclusively to Patriots members. Catch an exclusive first glimpse below.
Investigative reporter Cam Higby uncovered just how well-supplied the protesters were, as he evaded security check points and infiltrated the encampment.
“Their security’s terrible. Their logistics are absolutely awful,” Higby said of the check points. It was relatively easy to sneak in. Convinced he was friendly media, masked guards gave him a wrist band that allowed access to the encampment through designated entry points. They even offered him a job as security himself.
