There is no nuclear weapons program. Fettermanโ€™s pals in the Trump administration - including DNI Gabbard - have confirmed there is no nuclear weapons program.

Fetterman is lying. Openly. Demonstrably. Shamelessly.

We have a tradition at HMC where students write Valentines hearts to faculty, and I just got mine. I love that I am tiring my students into #FeministKilljoys

I feel like Iโ€™m going crazy witnessing how easy it is for people in the imperial core to ignore the genocide they are complicit in. Must be nice to have blue sky as your safe space.

The news overnight is devastating, possibly the worst night yet of the US/UK/EU backed Israeli genocide. Civilian centres are being bombed relentlessly in Gaza, while armed militias attack civilians across the West Bank. This is *Western terrorism* โ€” of the highest order.

While Palestinian mothers collect the limbs of their dead children, Zionist mothers talk of how asking the killers to stop offends and upsets them. Not standing against this madness makes you complicit in it.

First, pull funding from Columbia and start to lock up its students. Second, threaten other universities with the same.

All 60 schools on this list need to join together to fight this assault on academic freedom.

GOLDMAN: โ€œWe have cut our 2025 US growth forecast to 1.7% Q4/Q4 โ€” our first below-consensus call in 2ยฝ years โ€” and raised our US inflation forecast, both on the back of more adverse tariff assumptions. By contrast, our Euro area growth forecast has risen .. especially for 2026 - 2027 ..โ€ [Hatzius]

U.S. Department of Educationโ€™s Office for Civil Rights Sends Letters to 60 Universities Under Investigation for Antisemitic Discrimination and Harassment
WASHINGTON โ€“ Today, the U.S. Department of Educationโ€™s Office for Civil Rights (OCR) sent letters to 60 institutions of higher education warning them of potential enforcement actions if they do not fulfill their obligations under Title VI of the Civil Rights Act to protect Jewish students on campus, including uninterrupted access to campus facilities and educational opportunities. The letters are addressed to all U.S. universities that are presently under investigation for Title VI violations relating to antisemitic harassment and discrimination. 

โ€œThe Department is deeply disappointed that Jewish students studying on elite U.S. campuses continue to fear for their safety amid the relentless antisemitic eruptions that have severely disrupted campus life for more than a year. University leaders must do better,โ€ said Secretary of Education Linda McMahon. โ€œU.S. colleges and universities benefit from enormous public investments funded by U.S. taxpayers. That support is a privilege and it is contingent on scrupulous adherence to federal antidiscrimination laws.โ€  

The schools that received letters from the Office for Civil Rights include:

Columbiaโ€™s mission is to teach, create, and advance knowledge. For over 270 years, that mission has been grounded in an enduring and essential commitment to freedom of expression, open inquiry, and generous, respectful debate.

Today, we were notified of federal action from Department of Justice (DOJ), Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), Department of Education (ED), and the U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) cancelling $400 million in federal funding to the University. The federal agencies cite โ€œthe schoolโ€™s continued inaction in the face of persistent harassment of Jewish students.โ€

There is no question that the cancellation of these funds will immediately impact research and other critical functions of the University, impacting students, faculty, staff, research, and patient care.

But let me be very clear: Columbia is taking the governmentโ€™s action very seriously. I want to assure the entire Columbia community that we are committed to working with the federal government to address their legitimate concerns. To that end, Columbia can, and will, continue to take serious action toward combatting antisemitism on our campus.

Email from Columbia President Armstrong makes clear that admin still has no idea what itโ€™s dealing with. No amount of โ€œserious action to combat antisemitismโ€ (read: punish Palestine activists) will satisfy the Nazis. They see universities as an enemy institution to crush underfoot.

Have you seen how US presidents have treated leaders of non white nations?

Obama had the audacity to tell African leaders not to "blame colonization" for their economic problems, while wealthy nations like the US were plundering the continent and proliferating their drone warfare there.

Europe out there earnestly wishing to change the world order and replace the US as โ€˜world leaderโ€™.
Per usual. Destroy the world four times over and still think you or the US should lead.
Take the back seat.
There are more ways to relate to this world than self-appointing โ€˜a leaderโ€™.
