Ep. 136 Young Conservatives Stand Up on Liberal Campus: Pro-Life Students Face Backlash at USM

In this powerful episode of the Muddy Waters Podcast, host Chuck Ellis sits down with Abby and Jadyn — two courageous junior students at the University of Southern Maine (USM) — who are boldly standing as conservatives on one of Maine's most liberal campuses.

As leaders of Huskies for Life (a pro-life student organization) and Turning Point USA at USM, Abby and Jadyn share their inspiring journeys: how they discovered conservatism, why they felt called to action after the tragic assassination of Charlie Kirk, and the intense resistance they've faced for simply existing as pro-life, pro-family voices.

They discuss:
Starting a pro-life club focused on supporting pregnant students, moms in college, and providing real resources (not shame)
The shocking hostility, threats, and harassment they endured — including viral attacks on Yik Yak, personal insults, and implied violence
How campus administration failed to protect them or defend free speech during heated tabling events
Why abortion is uncomfortable (and why that's the point), Planned Parenthood myths, and the beauty of choosing life
The hypocrisy of "tolerance" on the left and why their mere presence threatens the dominant narrative

Despite fear, lost friendships, and a hostile environment, these young women refuse to stay silent. Their story is a rallying cry for free speech, conservatism on campus, and inspiring the next generation to speak truth — no matter the cost.

If you're in Maine or concerned about campus censorship, the pro-life movement, or the future of conservatism among Gen Z, this episode is a must-watch.
