βIn his speech, he also criticized the closure of Columbiaβs gates, an action that has restricted public access to campus for over two years.
'It is easier for ICE to walk into a dorm than it is for me, a Morningside Heights resident, to walk across campus,β Northrup said.β
I think this is ultimately the tree to bark up on the present authoritarian capture of US media. the tilt within legacy media is pretty unmistakeable (news deserts + right wing oligopoly of major outlets) but it's hard to see how the strategy holds up without the right wing state in the background

Columbia President with NEW details:
5 DHS agents entered a residency with no warrant.
They said they were police looking for a missing kid.
Security camera even captures them showing pictures of the "kid."
A campus officer asked for a warrant & their boss.
They ignored him & took the student.
But this is why Ellison is doing what he's doing too. They built a Potemkin village and now they all want to live in it because they've convinced themselves more than anyone else that it's Disneyland

I live in Minnesota and I want the federal government to stop trying to kill us. And hurt us. I want them to stop attacking us.
It sucks.
Weβre just trying to live our lives and take care of each other and we donβt deserve all this.
I kid around sometimes here but Iβm not kidding now.
