Columbia Chaos Continues, Root Causes, The White House Responds

Columbia Chaos Continues

 

Another deadline for campus protesters at Columbia University to disperse expired yesterday afternoon. When the university warned that the remaining students at the “Gaza Solidary Encampment” faced suspension, the student radicals took note and moved.

 

They forcibly occupied Hamilton Hall, which is a historic building.

 

A Failure To Plain, The Barbarians Inside The Gates, Our History

A Failure To Plan

 

I have been reading recently how radical Islamists set out to capture American universities over the past few decades. (Here and here.) They saw “higher education” as a way to influence debate and policy and a way they could “win” over the long term.

 

The Immunity Hearing, The Danger Ahead, The Company You Keep

The Immunity Hearing

 

As is often the case, the media headlines regarding yesterday’s Supreme Court arguments over presidential immunity were contradictory. Consider these dueling headlines from the Washington Post and the Wall Street Journal:

 

“High Court Poised To Reject Trump’s Immunity Claim” (Washington Post)

 

“Justices Seem Open To Some Immunity For Trump” (Wall Street Journal)

 

Hitler's Heirs, Netanyahu Responds, Debating Immunity

What A Sight

 

I’ll get to more profound issues in a moment. But I want to describe what you would have seen this morning if you were standing at the corner of 48th Street and Park Avenue in Manhattan.

 

Hundreds of construction workers and other New Yorkers had gathered there to see Donald Trump. They were chanting, “USA! USA!” as Trump greeted them, signed autographs, and took pictures.

 

Columbia's Cowards, Appeasement Never Works, How Deep Is The Rot

Columbia’s Cowards

 

The pro-Hamas demonstrations at Columbia were just given the green light by the university’s leadership. After giving the extremists a midnight deadline to clear out, the administration announced that they can stay for 48 more hours while negotiations continue. 

 

Biden's Moral Equivalence, Columbia Chaos Continues, Our Moment

Biden’s Moral Equivalence

 

Here’s what Joe Biden said when he was asked about the Jew-hatred sweeping our elite universities:

 

“I condemn the antisemitic protests. That’s why I have set up a program to deal with that. I also condemn those who don’t understand what’s going on with the Palestinians.”

 

Nazis At Columbia, A Moral Low, America Last

Nazis At Columbia

 

New York City Police had just barely finished clearing out the pro-Hamas encampment at Columbia University last week when the radical anti-Semites and America-haters returned with reinforcements.

 

We can’t just shrug our shoulders at this. What is happening at Columbia transcends foreign policy and partisan politics. It is not your typical leftist college protest over some obscure cause no one has ever heard of.

 

Israel Responds, More Abortion Mandates, Massacre Averted

Israel Responds

 

As you know, Iran fired 300 drones and ballistic missiles at Israel last week, hoping to kill thousands of innocent Israelis. Joe Biden told Israel not to escalate the situation.

 

Israel just had 300 missiles fired at it. What exactly is escalation? Firing 301 missiles in response? 

 

Schumer's Sham, Growing Anti-Semitism, Faith Under Siege

Schumer’s Sham

 

Chuck Schumer and his fellow Democrats made a total sham out of the Senate yesterday.

 

Rather than take seriously their oaths to uphold the Constitution and seriously consider the articles of impeachment passed by the House of Representatives against Homeland Insecurity Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, Schumer and every other Democrat simply dismissed them.

A Partisan Prosecution, Hope For Justice, Politics & Policy

A Partisan Prosecution

 

Many Americans are infuriated by the obvious lawfare campaign the left has been waging against Donald Trump. Legal experts and professors of constitutional law say these cases are weak and abusive. It’s the stuff of banana republics.
