Jewish Columbia professor: “I don't think that people think that Israel is a unique example of evil in the world….[but] it couldn’t do what it’s doing without the support of the United States. So students in the U.S. think: ‘We have a responsibility.’”

Notice how it’s always “threats of violence against Jewish students” because…. There is seldom an act of violence coming from these protests

One underreported element of these protests is that many of them are occurring at schools with ostensibly the best journalism programs/schools in the country: USC, UT Austin, Emerson, UNC, Columbia, etc. Just look at all the cameras in this video!

A lot of people seem to think “If the protests are peaceful then why don’t I like them?” is a compelling argument.

Nope. Not something you immediately resign over, especially with the balance of power at stake. It would be dumb for DFLers to try to force her to leave. Be smart.

If you’re involved in any of these anti-genocide actions at universities, please make sure to save your emails, flyers and other papers so that in 50 years your university can proudly display them as part of their special collections

Only 1 vote against Palestinian statehood at the UN Security Council: the United States. But the US has veto power, which means it doesn't pass. If that doesn't convince you of the extreme unfairness of the veto system, I don't know what will.

Before Game 6 of the Timberwolves series vs. Memphis in 2022, Naz Reid was listed as out for "personal reasons." He never spoke in-depth about why -- until now. This is the story of Naz & Rudy Roundtree, the man Naz credits with getting him to the NBA. startribune.com/naz-reid-sixth…
There's a gray 2010 Audi parked in a garage in downtown Minneapolis that, as much as anything, represents the journey Naz Reid has taken to being an #NBA fan favorite. @ChristopherHine tells the story: startribune.com/naz-reid-sixth…
Israel has got to be one of the most evil entities to ever exist in history. This is absolutely demonic.

Libraries should stay libraries and if you want them to be community recreation centers you should just say that you want that instead because those used to exist, too, and were shuttered for the same reason conservatives and neoliberals are trying to defund libraries now.

Didn't cost them a penny. It's all paid for by the American denial of healthcare, child poverty, widespread homelessness, and crushing student debt. That's the American social contract. We have these dynamics at home, so we can have consequence-free genocides abroad.

It's strange to be Israel: You violate a mountain of UN resolutions, condemn the UN at every turn, bomb UN schools & shelters, murder UN employees, & then you demand a UN meeting over another country responding to your bombing of their consulate 🤯

Joe Biden campaign officially dies tonight. With a naked and brutal display of fascism in the nation's largest city, mobilized against unarmed students on their own campus. This is what he said he would prevent Trump from doing. This is why we said there was no difference.
How important is it to Columbia to keep investing in Israeli firms while the country faces charges of genocide? There are a lot of companies in countries that are not currently before the ICJ or ICC for charges of genocide. Weird hill to die on
This kind of thing is going to teach these students more about power than four years of political science could ever do
UPDATE: “Anyone on the lawn in the next 5 minutes will be arrested. You are still on Yale University property.” Police Chief Anthony Campbell has instructed Yale students that unless they express political agreement with him, protestors have restricted access to campus “SHAME!”
None of this was inevitable. This happened because a poor leader listened to bad advice from people who thought demagogues in Congress playing for the cameras could be placated.

If any kid is hurt tonight, responsibility will fall on the mayor and univ presidents. Other leaders and schools have found a safe, de-escalatory path. This is the opposite of leadership and endangers public safety. A nightmare in the making. I urge the Mayor to reverse course.
NEW - @NYCMayor says Columbia protest has been "co-opted" and is going to share their intel, he says at 1 Police Plaza. He advises students involved in the protest to leave the area and tells parents to tell their kids to leave "before the situation escalates."
its definitely the anti genocide student protestors that were a threat to the students and not this insane police presence on campus
