THIS IS THE WAY: High School Principal Springs into Action to SHUT DOWN Woke Muslim Valedictorian’s Disgusting Anti-ICE, Pro-Palestine Commencement Speech (VIDEO)

A high school principal in North Carolina set a good example for educators by putting the school’s valedictorian in her place after she hijacked her commencement speech.

As The New York Post reported, Clayton High School senior Leen Hijaz was given the honor of delivering the institution’s commencement speech due to her academic accomplishments. Normally, such addresses are generally uneventful and at least somewhat apolitical.

But Hijaz, a Muslim, soon abandoned her pre-approved remarks to unleash a vile rant against ICE and spread pro-Palestine propaganda.

“Before I leave the stage, I have one last thing to say. Every single person here has a voice; we have the privilege to use it when millions around the world are struggling and suffering to be heard,” Hijaz stated.

“Whether it’s the millions suffering in Palestine, Sudan, Congo, Afghanistan, and so many other countries around the world, or families being torn apart by ICE. These are not just an issue here; they are happening there, they’re happening right here as I speak,” she continued.

“My point is, we’re not given a voice to stay silent,” Hijaz tried to add before Principal Melissa Moore approached her.

Moore promptly yanked the microphone away from Hijaz and pulled her off the stage to the teen’s dismay.

Here is a shorter version posted on Hijaz’s TikTok account:

Hijaz later fumed about being shut down by Principal Moore, noting she was only able to use half of her speech.

The Muslim teen also whined about feeling “oppressed.”

Johnston County Public Schools released the following statement to the New York Post regarding the incident:

During this year’s Clayton High School graduation, a student departed from her approved remarks.

School administrators intervened in order to maintain the integrity and focus of the program in real time. This action was not about limiting a student’s voice, but about ensuring that a school-sponsored event remained consistent with its intended purpose.
