Part of the speech was seen on YAF\u2019s YouTube page, but poor audio made it impossible to hear what Walsh was saying. The livestream later became completely unavailable.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOne of the student workers, Ky Lai, was in communication with members of a leftist coalition, \u2018Stop Transphobia @ UH,\u2019 and shared that she would be working behind the scenes. After YAF became aware of this student worker\u2019s postings, she was removed from the event, and a bomb sweep was conducted,\u201d Nick Baker, assistant editor for YAF\u2019s The New Guard, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.yaf.org\/news\/leftist-student-employees-likely-sabotaged-live-stream-for-walsh-event-at-university-of-houston\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">wrote<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>According to Baker, several student workers were required by the university to remain on site for the event and had access to YAF\u2019s streaming equipment in the hours before Walsh\u2019s speech.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier in the night, a person protesting the event was wrestled to the ground and handcuffed by police. Video of the incident showed the masked protester, who had made it inside the event venue, on the ground and surrounded by five police officers who were attempting to arrest him. The protestor appeared to be carrying a small transgender flag that ended up on the ground beside him.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">WATCH: Masked protestor tackled by police at <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/MattWalshBlog?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@mattwalshblog<\/a>&#8216;s event in Houston <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/bEKfT2WKpC\">pic.twitter.com\/bEKfT2WKpC<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 YAF (@yaf) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/yaf\/status\/1580709868360458240?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">October 13, 2022<\/a><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">WATCH: Masked protestor tackled by police at <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/MattWalshBlog?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@mattwalshblog<\/a>&#39;s event in Houston <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/bEKfT2WKpC\">pic.twitter.com\/bEKfT2WKpC<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; YAF (@yaf) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/yaf\/status\/1580709868360458240?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">October 13, 2022<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>Officers finally handcuffed the protester and escorted him outside, where a group of protestors can be heard chanting in the background of the video.
