According to her, \u201cpeople in power\u201d at the University of Alabama are \u201csuppressing conservative voices,\u201d pointing to the absence of event promotional material around campus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">She noted that at Oklahoma, posters advertising her appearance were widely displayed \u2014 even if some students \u201cripped them down, burned them, and fought over them.\u201d But at Alabama, she claims she did not see <strong>any<\/strong> signage.<br><strong>\u201cI would love to know why,\u201d<\/strong> she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Grayson Chrisley Says He Faces Pushback on Campus<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Chrisley\u2019s younger brother, freshman <strong>Grayson Chrisley<\/strong>, joined her onstage and described what he says is political hostility on campus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/topkeynews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/2-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15795\" srcset=\"https:\/\/topkeynews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/2-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/topkeynews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/topkeynews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/2-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/topkeynews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/2.jpg 1080w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>\u201cI\u2019m an unapologetic Republican,\u201d<\/strong> he said. <strong>\u201cIf a hat upsets you, maybe you need to be a little tougher.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Tensions With UA Ethics Professor<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Savannah also pointed to what she called a \u201ctelling moment\u201d involving an ethics and communications professor at UA.
