Adam Corolla Tells How DEI Policies Took Seven Years For The LA Fire Department To Call

Posted • January 9, 2025: This is a bit of a flashback — it was 2017 when Adam Corolla was invited to testify before the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee on the topic of "Challenges to Freedom of Speech on College Campuses."
