The University of South Carolina has decided not to cancel an upcoming event billed as a roast of Vice President Harris, despite calls from South Carolina State Senator Tamika Isaac-Devine to do so. The event features Roastmasters Milo Yiannopoulos and Gavick McGinnis, the latter being the founder of the Proud Boys organization.
Yiannopoulos, known for his controversial statements targeting various groups, resigned from Breitbart following remarks that appeared to sympathize with adult sexual relationships involving children. McGinnis and several Proud Boys leaders have faced legal consequences for their involvement in events like the January 6th Capitol riot.
