Always read @Megankstack - today on the lessons of northern Ireland and need for a (messy risky) political solution - risky, messy and urgent. Northern Ireland, Gaza and the Road to Peace https://t.co/E9C5JFENSP via @NYTOpinion

Middle East peace may seem hopeless, but Northern Ireland shows that even the most intractable conflict can be resolved.

Rashid Khalidi- This is where we are at Columbia. 100% endorse.

The university’s draconian policies and new definition of antisemitism make much teaching impossible

Just FYI. Woman suing Trump over alleged teen rape drops suit, again - POLITICO

The lawyer who organized the event said Donald Trump's accuser had received threats and was too frightened to show up.

We are going to support another Israeli war without any democratic process? Are we a satellite state? I can’t express my horror. If we allow this we are as captive to an insane leader as Israel is. Where is Congress? Do we have no representation?

Does Trump just tell his lackeys to make a list of ways to fuck universities? This is administration policy?
nytimes.com
The move was a major escalation in the administration’s efforts to pressure the college to fall in line with President Trump’s demands.

Our admin walked us down this path and this is where it took us. Just disgusted. https://t.co/W1P9wGeRiM via @NYTimes

The Trump administration is discussing asking a judge to enforce any deal it reaches with the school, which the White House says has not done enough to address antisemitism.

Speaking as a senior faculty member at Columbia university re: NYT news item on President Armstrong’s resignation. What email? I have received none. Chaos reigns. Enough blackmail. Time to fight.
nytimes.com
Katrina Armstrong is leaving the post a week after the university agreed to a list of demands from the White House.

Listening to T and thinking he sounds more and more like his SNL caricature. What a despicable human being. Just trashing the US in a press conference. Classy.

Instead of polls or even accusations of fraud, the real index of Trump’s chances is the bronzer level! Gettin real dark. Good sign. That’s what I am tracking in this last nerve wracking stretch.

And just a reminder that when Trump calls Jan 6 and Madison Square Gardens a “love fest” - he means the violence and hateful nasty speech shows his followers LOVE FOR HIM. That’s all that matters. Case closed.

Maybe in democracies we shouldn’t let gazillionaires buy major media institutions. We have lots of evidence why not and not just here.

So now we have all the info we need about whats to come. All the media billionaires caving to the authoritarian Trump out of fear of retaliation if they don’t. WashPo and LA Times just this week alone. Twitter and WSJ long gone. We can’t expect any courage if this a-hole wins.

Watching CNN cover Israel’s war on Gaza, Lebanon and apparently Iran. Who do they have on? Why not the entire IDF team of experts … what happened to dispassionate coverage? Do Americans know how insane this seems?

Re: vp debates. Does democracy require us to wade through miles of smooth but utter bullshit to sort out the truth? Apparently so. Yale law school has a lot to answer for.
