President Liz Magill faces a massive backlash for her appalling testimony before the House Committee on Education and the Workforce last week. Magill, along with Harvard President Claudine Gay and MIT head Sally Kornbluth, all refused to condemn or say that calls for genocide against Jewish people constituted harassment. They went the academic route of trying to contextualize the subject, which did not go over well. This isn’t an academic subject: people calling for an entire race or ethnic group to be annihilated isn’t a tough call.

Is it a coincidence that all three of these prestigious universities have middle-aged Karen’s as presidents?

I can assure you, my wife worked at a university for over 25 years, and I attended many events with her over the years, particularly at the Executive levels of the university, and they talk without any concern for others around them. They are so insulated and accustomed to everyone thinking and believing exactly as they do, that they don't even wonder if they should have made any type of comment in mixed company. I don't doubt these Univ. Presidents were surprised by the backlash as it's just not something they have concerned themselves with most of their careers, but there's tremendous group-think mentality with nearly ZERO diversity of opinions on college campuses. Maybe, just maybe, this recent episode will be the catalyst to initiate change on college campuses to include diversity of thought and opinion too.

All of these educated-beyond-their-intelligence eggheads had all sorts of high-priced advisors, lawyers, and consultants who should have given them and well-rehearsed them with scripts to befuddle those Neanderthal far-right MAGA Republican rubes. As well as their advice on the "non-apology" videos. I'm sure their bills have already been submitted. Any of us could have given them advice for $100 on a three minute phone call. Don't stand up for folks calling for the genocide of Jewish students. Regardless of the "context."

Gee let's get a group to protest to exterminate blacks or muslims. I bet THEY would be expelled in a heartbeat. How many professors have been fired for MISGENDERING someone? I also read that there are 2 times as many "management" positions as students. Why is THAT necessary? How abt we stop funding these institutions that indoctrinate hatred for America? How many CONSERVATIVE speakers are allowed on campus at these "FREE SPEECH" institutions? I remember many conservatives being shouted off campus or cancelled. So it is free speech for those we agree with and none for anyone else.

Elise Stefanik for the next Crimson president. I don't think the GOP can afford her loss just now, but what about putting in an Acting while the search occurs? She understands about effing Listening to another point of view and not using this role to award academic success to her political allies and deny it to those who challenge her political projects.

I hope everyone sees the evil of the appointment of these unqualified women to head universities. They are gender hires, nothing more. They lack the intelligence to lead anything more than a Saturday afternoon tea room man-hating seminar. Worthless, absolutely worthless for anything other than consuming valuable oxygen.

Sen. Mitt Romney (R-Ut.) on Sunday came out in opposition to the House GOP-led impeachment inquiry into President Biden — while blasting first son Hunter Biden’s behavior and ripping him as an “unsavory person.” Romney, who voted to convict then-President Donald Trump during both of his impeachments, argued that there isn’t evidence to go after Joe Biden. “I think before you begin that impeachment inquiry, you ought to have some evidence — some inclination that there’s been wrongdoing,” Romney said on NBC’s “Meet the Press.” “If I was in the House, I’d vote against it, unless they were able to bring forward evidence that suggests…”

Joe Biden Meets the Gestapo 1 reply

Last night, I watched a documentary about the Gestapo. It occurred to me that it used the same tactics as the bumbling joke that currently occupies the Bully Pulpit and his minions. I did some research to substantiate my thoughts. The Geheime Staatspolizei, abbreviated Gestapo, was the official secret police of Nazi Germany. It was created by Hermann Göring in 1933 by combining various political police agencies of Prussia into one organization. On April 20, 1934, oversight passed to Heinrich Himmler, the head of the Schutzstaffel (the SS, originally Hitler’s personal body guard), who was also appointed chief of German police by Hitler in 1936.

University of Pennsylvania President Liz Magill is learning that free speech has a cost. She, along with Claudine Gay and Sally Kornbluth, the presidents of Harvard and Massachusetts Institute of Technology, respectively, testified before the House Committee on Education and the Workforce, where Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-NY) asked all three women if calls for Jewish genocide constituted harassment. All three ladies gave waffled answers that were both cold and insipid to the more significant issue of the antisemitism facing Jewish students amid the war in Gaza.

OH MY GAWDDDD this is getting to be such fun! Just a couple of days ago I had a piece on just how very vexing to Democrats – and how very reasonable to the rest of us – Pennsylvania Senator John Fetterman had suddenly become post-October 7th. It’s been such an utter and complete 180° from the gibbering mass of stroke impacted Sling Blade chic we’ve all come to know and cringe at, that I posited aliens were responsible for the shift. Had to be. An abduction and substitution, perhaps, which had worked out (oddly enough for once) in our favor.

Millions of Americans watched in horror this week as the presidents of Harvard, MIT and Penn testified before Congress about the vile anti-Semitism we have seen on their campuses in recent weeks. Despite being given ample chances to do so, they just couldn’t seem to bring themselves to admit that the far left students carrying out these acts are violating school policies. All of the school presidents hid behind a supposed commitment to free speech, but we know that’s false because conservative speakers are routinely shouted down on college campuses. Now, billionaire hedge fund manager and academic donor Bill Ackman is demanding that these school presidents ‘resign in disgrace.’

On Tuesday the House Education Committee invited the leaders of MIT, Harvard, and Penn to testify in front of Congress. During their testimony Rep. Elise Stefanik asked the educators if calling for the genocide of Jews violates the code of conduct on their campuses. Not one of the campus leaders could answer the question. Presidents of the University of Pennsylvania, Harvard, and MIT smilingly say that calling for genocide of Jews isn’t necessarily against their code against harassment and bullying on campus. MIT dean Liz Magill suggested it was not a violation unless it led to actual genocide. Wow! It’s open season on Jews at these American universities!

In a compelling development stemming from an FBI raid conducted last year, a portion of the gold bars found in the residence of embattled Sen. Bob Menendez (D-NJ) have been identified as those stolen in a high-profile 2013 robbery. In September, Sen. Bob Menendez, the senior U.S. Senator from New Jersey and the former Chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, and his wife, Nadine Menendez, were indicted on bribery and corruption charges. In October, Bob Menendez was charged with acting as a foreign agent in a superseding indictment. Bob Menendez and his wife are under investigation for their involvement in a bribery scheme from 2018 to 2022.
New York Appeals Court Reinstates Gag

A New York Appeals Court on Thursday reinstated a gag order against President Trump in Letitia James’s Soviet-style civil fraud case. Earlier this month a New York Appeals judge temporarily lifted NY Judge Arthur Engoron’s gag order on Trump. New York Attorney General Letitia James is seeking $250 million in ‘damages’ in her lawfare case against President Trump. Appellate judge David Friedman stayed Engoron’s gag order citing Trump’s First Amendment rights a couple of weeks ago. In late October Judge Engoron put Trump on the witness stand after he blasted the former president and accused him of violating the gag order with his remarks to the press. He also fined Trump $10,000.

Another day, another leak. Former Vice President Mike Pence trashed President Trump to Special Counsel Jack Smith earlier this year in a closed-door testimony. Chief Judge James Boasberg, an Obama appointee ordered former Vice President Mike Pence to testify before a grand jury about his conversations with President Trump related to January 6. This was an unprecedented attack on Trump’s authority and executive privilege which is derived from the constitutional separation of powers. Jack Smith was present at the grand jury proceeding during Pence’s 5-hour testimony in April. According to a leak to ABC News, Mike Pence told Jack Smith that Trump hired a bunch of “crank” lawyers who espoused “un-American” legal theories,

It’s an ominous warning but it’s important to think ahead and be mentally prepared for anything, because that’s what is on the table.

Adams noted in a Friday press conference that the city's residents are weary, angry, and "seeing the impact of the migrant and asylum seeker issue, how it is taking away from the resources that should go to the day‑to‑day services of running the city." He said that he "did not walk out from D.C. with any level of optimism that anything is going to drastically change."
