This kind of response should be a no-brainer for any Democrat. I don't understand how so many are getting it so wrong. Looking at you Biden! Disavow what they're saying if you must, but support their right to say it. Isn't that the liberal way?

Y’all. This is the notice of suspension that one of the UGA students received. I have redacted their name. But take a note of the timestamp. Email sent at 5:09 PM, they have to contact her office by 5:10 PM, or else they are suspended at 5:11 PM. You can’t make this up. 🤦🏼♀️
Can we all drop the phrase "outside agitators?" They use it because it sounds scarier than "protesters from out of town." Gasp did you know that some of the protesters were from out of town? 😮 People from Atl come to Athens and vice versa, just chill pls
UGA Students for Justice in Palestine and Athens Against Apartheid set up a Gaza solidarity camp yesterday that was quickly broken up by police. Later that day, they were back at it on the same spot. They plan to continue protesting there indefinitely. youtube.com/shorts/V8Jp2wQ…
Pro-Palestine demonstrators gathered at the Arch in downtown Athens on Monday afternoon in support of the 16 arrested on campus earlier today. buff.ly/44k0MOc

Approximately 25 University of Georgia students and Athens community members set up camp on the Old College front lawn at North Campus early on Monday morning to demonstrate in support of Palestine, joining many other college campuses around the nation. buff.ly/4biqYLt
🚨 Police arresting students now @ #UGA for criminal trespassing on their own campus. University of Georgia had set up the Gaza Solidarity Encampment hardly an hour ago.
Just when I'm trying to get my hate on for Biden he does stuff like this. Typical! 😅 It's a “'historic grand slam' of major actions by the Biden administration" according to David Doniger of the Natural Resources Defense Council. apnews.com/article/power-…
Can we...just accept that we suck at this? I want to tell you a story that has made me kinda hopeless about Twitter's ability to affect positive things happening, and it starts with this tweet from Hillary Clinton. x.com/hillaryclinton…

Sometimes the arc of history turns a little quicker and it’s easier to tell how the sides look
The President, to the anger of so many, did exactly this parroting right wing talking points. Yet this is the response on the right. None of this has *ever* been good faith. And the GOP literally does not care about any of us. So, why are we capitulating to the lies?
A CLOSER LOOK: UGA student was sent this notice of interim suspension after he was arrested Monday at a protest. Email came in at 5:09pm, asks him to explain why he shouldn't be suspended by 5:10pm or it would go into effect at 5:11pm. @universityofga, is this fair due process?
We stand in agreement with the @YoungDemsUGA regarding the recent arrests of UGA students. "The 1st Amendment protects the fundamental & sacred right to protest, & any undue infringement on this right is not only wrong but fundamentally unjust & un-American."
@bmo72 @NerdAthens I’ve been messaging with a student who was arrested back during the protest against the ban on undocumented students in 2016. These students knowingly trespassed and were arrested and charged with a misdemeanor. Criminal charges were later dropped, no Ban from Campus.
@Resigned2HRC @DarnellTheGeek @jfrickuga @NerdAthens @redandblack @FlagpoleMag @onlineathens @UcwgaUGA Oh god, I just realized, if there's any blind students that depend on screen readers, they literally *can't* have responded in time, because screen readers don't talk that fast.
@NerdAthens @jawjaboy I would definitely have voted for him before yesterday. Thanks for the chuckle.
Protesting war is not anti-semitism, it’s a display of our free speech rights. Student protests at @UWMadison are reminiscent of the anti-war protests of the 60s that helped end the Vietnam War. We must protect all students from anti-semitism & Islamophobia. Always.
It’s too bad no media outlet ever bothers to calculate the actual dollar costs to the taxpayers when 200 cops are getting paid overtime to shuttle peaceful 19-year-olds onto a bus and book them for trespassing on their own college campus.
This is absolutely wild. And also, wish we had this kind of energy for Clarence Thomas.
A House Republican tells @axios that legislation is already being drafted to respond to potential ICC arrest warrants against senior Israeli officials. Lawmakers in both parties have threatened “consequences” if the warrants are issued. axios.com/2024/04/29/icc…
@AndrewSolender @axios So the United States doesn’t follow International law?
@AndrewSolender @axios So, the US will not obey international law as well? ICC should issue two warrants, one for Israeli officials and the other one for US officials.
@bluestein It would be helpful to include some relevant information about what Sonny Perdue's old job was & who the Perdue family are
@bluestein how did an encampment in the middle of a green prevent people from attending their classes?
@jfrickuga @redandblack @FlagpoleMag @onlineathens @UcwgaUGA Is there a way to support the students protesting? Legal fund? Write to administration?
Joe Biden should immediately stop making statements which manufacture consent for threats to the physical safety of American students.
There has been no remotely persuasive argument yet made that these protests are damaging to the security of the university, despite the university’s insistence otherwise.
