Trump Delivered for ‘Pro-Palestine’ Protesters, But Suddenly They’ve Gone Silent

• October 18, 2025

It took only about 24 hours after Hamas’ Oct. 7, 2023, terrorist attack on Israel for cries of “Free Palestine” to fill city streets as protesters waved the Palestinian flag. However, after the ceasefire and hostage deal that the Trump administration led the way in negotiating, those same protesters are suddenly, noticeably silent.

The absence of great celebration on the part of the “Free Palestine” protesters confirms what many already knew: The pro-Palestine movement has always been more deeply rooted in a hatred of Israel than a love for the people of Gaza.

Now more than ever, the “Free Palestine” chanters should be taking to the streets to demand Hamas be completely eliminated as the terrorist group carries out public executions of Gazans accused of being “collaborators” after the partial withdrawal of the Israeli military.

On this week’s edition of “Problematic Women,” we discuss the historic nature of the deal that ended the fighting between Israel and Hamas, and celebrate the return of all the living hostages.

Also on today’s show, Erika Kirk was at the White House this week to receive the Medal of Freedom on behalf of her husband, Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk, who was assassinated on Sept. 10. Plus, we bring you the latest pop culture news, including actress Keira Knightley’s recent comments on transgenderism.
