Monica Crowley, news analyst and former assistant secretary for public affairs at the U.S. Treasury Department, was this year’s keynote speaker to discuss the Constitution’s enduring influence. However, her focus on “American Exceptionalism” and critical remarks about “Marxists and globalists within the current administration” quickly altered the tone of the event.
The audience’s unease became evident as Crowley brought attention to the roles of Donald Trump and Ronald Reagan. Whispers and chuckles could be heard, and a noticeable number of attendees exited the auditorium during her opening speech.
Crowley revealed to the UP during a lunch event before her speech that she worked with former President Richard Nixon for the last four years of his life and considered him a mentor. She also mentioned having former President Donald Trump as a guest on her podcast, “The Monica Crowley Podcast.”
“What drove me to work with them [Trump and Nixon] was that they were both American patriots, and both outsiders, spurred by the establishment. Both to corrupt the status quo. They were rebels with a cause, despised because they were not part of the establishment,” Crowley said during her speech.
The event’s core agenda, exploring the Constitution’s transformative power on America, became overshadowed by heated discussions. Topics shifted the dialogue entirely, especially the January 6, 2021 Capitol riot. Subsequent discussions, rather than discussing the central theme of the event, saw Crowley defending Trump’s stance on the Capitol events. She even alleged there was enough evidence suggesting the FBI’s involvement in allowing rioters into the Capitol.
As discussions about the Capitol continued, the auditorium saw a significant drop in attendees. The remaining audience members witnessed an escalating debate between Crowley, Douglas C. Lyons of the Palm Beach Post, and former USA Today investigative reporter Daphne Duret.
Things reached a boiling point when a frustrated attendee demanded a refund, exclaiming the panel’s deviation from its core topic: the Constitution. One man stormed out of the auditorium shouting and demanding a refund for his $40 ticket.

"The Senate will no longer enforce its dress code, all because John Fetterman is a revolting slob. This is a material debasement of a storied institution and an absolute reflection of America's steep decline."--Monica Crowley 9.18.23
"The judge in the Trump J6 case - an Obama appointee and donor - worked at the same law firm as Hunter Biden. This is the level of contempt they have for the Constitution, the rule of law - and YOU." --Monica Crowley; Twitter; 8.2.23
"They are basically indicting Donald Trump for Joe Biden's crimes. They have thrown the kitchen sink at Donald Trump for the last seven or eight years since he came down that escalator at Trump Tower. They've tried to stop him and destroy him, why? Because he is an existential threat to the entire corrupt status quo and ruling class. They have got to stop him. This is just the latest chapter of this. But I have never seen anybody survive what Donald Trump has survived, so, don't underestimate him. The guy is going to survive this as well. " --Monica Crowley; Fox & Friends; 8.2.23
A tweet by Monica Crowley posted on July 18, 2023, and viewed 574,000 times, suggested that Joe Biden had fallen asleep during his meeting with Israeli President Isaac Herzog. The tweet included a video of Biden, sitting down, looking down, and talking.
Crowley wrote: "Corrupt, senile hack mumbles his way into a nap while sitting with a foreign head of state." However, the video that was shared by Crowley was edited to help create the impression that Joe Biden had fallen asleep during the conversation with Herzog. The clip was from a moment when Biden tried to find his words as he discussed previous negotiations. These included a maritime boundary dispute between Israel and Lebanon, opening airspace for Israel over Saudi Arabia, as well as the U.S. bringing "Israelis and Palestinians together at the political level."
There are a few seconds where Biden tries to find his words and speaks quietly.
The clip on Twitter shared by Crowley then cuts out. In the full video, Biden continues by talking about recent communication with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu about America's "firm" commitment to Israel; at this point, Biden's gaze returns to Herzog.
Clearly, the clip's editing, Biden's quietened voice, his pose, and Crowley's accompanying tweet strengthened the claim that the president had taken "a nap." The full video, however, shows this is obviously not true. --Tom Norton; Newsweek; Fact Check: Did Joe Biden Fall Asleep While Meeting Israel's President? 7.18.23

Newsmax Host Loses It at Giuliani Ruling: ‘Outrageous’
A Washington, D.C. jury’s determination Friday that Rudy Giuliani must pay $148 million to two Atlanta poll workers he defamed drew the outrage of Newsmax host Carl Higbie, who complained that the outcome was “outrageous” and “unwarranted.” Higbie announced the news with a smarmy jab at U.S. District Judge Beryl Howell’s ruling in August that Giuliani was liable for defamation, intentional infliction of emotional distress, civil conspiracy and punitive damages.
