This sums it up IMHO. I didn't write it but could not agree more:

Leftist progressives and their allies have spent the last several decades gaslighting everyone that our nation is systemically racist. They created articles, books, TV shows and films to overwhelm us with their invented truths. They've pushed their tentacles into every corner of our lives. Corporate HR departments & boardrooms, health care, grade schools/high schools/colleges, religious institutions, every level in media and government, even the military. When people questioned or objected to these ideologies, they were denied straight answers and were instead subjected to racial trainings of every kind. They were lied to and told that this was the difficult work, the difficult conversations that needed to be had in the name of diversity, equity and inclusion. New allies that agreed to put race before humanity were rewarded with cheap lawn signs that virtue signaled their goodness to their friends & neighbors. All the while, these progressives rode their grift along with the exploitation of white guilt to dizzying heights, including the presidencies of our nations best and brightest universities. Why then would anyone expect them to react with integrity and morals when the true and undeniable presence of antisemitism emerged before their very eyes? After all, they long ago they sold their souls and sacrificed their humanity for racial essentialism. The connection of antisemitism and DEI is as clear as day now. This is the moral rot that the world witnessed on full display from the leadership of Penn, Harvard & MIT.

These universities are not elite schools, they are finishing schools for the elite. And, boy, does it show; their headmasters are all dumber than a box of rocks.

The only way to stop the double standard on antisemitism on campuses is to withhold donations the way the Wexner foundation, and other donors, did. Money talks.

Something else I've pondered: can you imagine these presidents' reactions to an on-capus pro-life rally (or a rally celebrating the Dobbs decision)??? They would have been INCENSED! "Shut it down, and get it off our premises!"

Those women all need to resign. Under them the students have been indoctrinated with beliefs that cause them to endanger Jews and IMO it seems that hate has taken root at these Universities.

"More than 40 White House interns have written a letter to the president and vice president in which they state: 'We heed the voices of the American people and call on the Administration to demand a permanent ceasefire.'”

Every one of these little shites should be fired immediately. Not only because they carry water for barbarous fiends but because most Americans - the sane ones, anyway - do NOT want a ceasefire, In fact, the claim that "most Americans want a ceasefire" in Israel is based on a Economist/YouGov poll conducted on November 25 - 27, 2023 among 1,500 U.S. adult citizens. !500 people. Who were never asked about "a permanent ceasefire." Moreover, that same poll show more support for a Ukraine ceasefire than for one in Gaza. But, of course, they don't mention that.

Why did it take mistreatment and attacks on Jewish people for people to get worked up over discrimination and double standards at our universities? White, straight males have been discriminated against for years and the signs were there that it would get worse but the people who can communicate and mock these policies were silent. All these progressive, racist DEI policies must be reversed like what DeSantis and Rufo are doing in Florida but on national scale.

Connor MacGregor is considering a run because he understands that the current government in Ireland is the enemy of free people and free speech. We need more people to start fighting but having an actual fighter take up the sword is a very good thing.

I'm really, really tired of rejectionist young "staff" and students issuing diktats, running the show. The mobs, the ubiquitous group letters and lectures. They do it because people cave. I love the guys who tell employees if they don't like it, they can work elsewhere. How many did Netflix lose? Twenty? I think five racialist employees sabataged Coleman Hughes' Ted talk. That's outrageous.

We need more backbone. Expel, not suspend, students who want to run the show. And when appropriate, deport. You don't get to come here and disrupt and threaten our own citizens. Or shout "Death to Anerica ." Rescind those visas.

What exactly do White House interns do? What important role do they fill in our government? I get that this is an opportunity for young men and women to see and experience the inner workings of the Executive Branch, and until 2022, when Joe Biden decided to pay them for their privileged experiences, it was all voluntary. Ronald Reagan, faced with a strike of air traffic controllers who perform a vital function in our transportation system, decided to fire them unless they returned to work, and most did. I see no good reason to retain interns who feel that they are empowered to influence the elected leadership on policy decisions while getting paid to learn about the functions of the White House. Fire them and return the program to voluntary status.

Been saying forever, the Democratic Party is the party of hate. They implement laws and standards that allow them to discriminate, isolate, shun, or impose sanctions on those they dislike. Sneaky but effective. They hate Jews, so support and destroy by protesting for Hamas. They really don't like minorities, so isolate them in the cities and let them kill each other. Abortion, helps keep the numbers down. Protesting anything by the Democrats is violent and confrontational. You must accept whatever they want or face violent accusations and potentially harm. Do as we say, or suffer the results. They are truly the party of hate. Even trying to debate a true liberal results in anger and accusations from them.

Conservatives, they will accuse of putting Democracy is in danger, school choice is destroying values and anti-whatever it is today. Praying outside an Abortion Center is a crime. Burning churches is a means of protest. Violence is not really violence, it is mostly peaceful, unless those MAGA folks make it violent. Look at these University Presidents and tell me you would trust them on anything. They rely on huge donations and trusts to help pay their bloated salaries. These are not good people at all and looking at them and their actions says it all. Screw all of you, I am on a mission and that is whatever perverted Hell they are being funded to implement. They could care less about free speech and open thoughts to enlighten and educate the youth. It is simply indoctrination and using the youth as their violent arm for making changes.

What should Israel do next. Hunt down and exterminate all of the Hamas, Hezbo, and other leaders who continue to screw the people who they are supposed to lead and at the same time killing Jewish people. You can not and should not negotiate with evil. Evil will do anything to survive and regenerate. If the useless pieces of crap at the UN want to make changes for the good, put a DMZ line between the areas and fill it with Peace Keeping Troops who are allowed to shoot anyone trying to kill the other side. But the UN is not about people, it's only about the people in the UN and getting more money for them to piss away. They are corrupt to the core.

It's funny how a group of Interns believe that a demand from Biden to cease-fire, will somehow convince Netanyahu to stop the war against Hamas.

I’ve told the story before, I’ll tell it again. My son was going to be expelled from his college dorm for the “hate crime” of removing a sign indicating a bathroom was gender neutral. They only relented when I told him he has Asperger’s and it was a prank. Yes, I played the Aspie card and it worked.
