Re Bessent : The LGBTQ community is silent as they always are when the person or cause does not meet their intersectionality far left wing nonsense ! How this community is not only silent on what happened on October 7 2023 many actually support HAMAS !
Re: Scott Bessent, I always find it interesting how groups like GLAAD and MeToo pick and choose whom they deem worthy of their support. That’s why it’s very difficult to take them seriously.
I am stunned that Columbia is allowing Joseph Massad to teach a class on Jewish history and Zionism. Has anyone bothered to read his articles in Al Jezeera? They are filled with distortions and lies. His Nov 11, 2011 column is particularly egregious. Ironically titled, "Truth, facts, and facts on the ground: Much of the international support that Israel receives is based on several lies that it tells and re-tells as facts," it contains obvious falsehoods such as
“The uncontroversial academic and historical facts that European Jews are descendants of European converts to Judaism from the centuries before Christianity was adopted as the religion of the Roman Empire in the fourth century are unquestionable axioms in academic scholarship, including by Zionist historians. No respected historian of European Jewry has ever argued that European Jews, or for that matter Moroccan, or Iraqi, or Yemeni Jews, were descendants of the ancient Hebrews.”
What, no correction for the blatant slander of RFK Jr regarding his stance on the polio vaccine in yesterday's article? No clarification that the NYT article that was quoted was promoting a lie?
I was concerned when I read that piece. Could you please cite the proof that RFK is not against polio vaccination? Because if what you say is right, then the FP has a serious correction and apology to make.
Yes they do. There were many comments on this below yesterday's FP piece explaining that Aaron Siri, the lawyer cited in the NYT article, had asked for the withdrawal of only ONE of the SIX polio vaccines, which has been linked with very significant toxicity and side effects. Neither he nor RFK Jr have asked to withdraw the polio vaccines in common use today.
Joseph Massad is a disgrace and a stain on Columbia U.'s already sagging reputation. The fact that they didn't can him after his open exultation over the October 7 attack suggests that to them, he did nothing wrong.
Nor does the university have a problem with the many Muslims and far-Left Israel haters who rioted violently and threatened Jewish students and anyone who disagrees with them.
The worst of it is that Columbia U. is representative of many U.S. universities and not at all unusual.
Agreed. We need to cut all their funding and tax the capital gains on their endowments. Those institutions were started to help develop U.S. citizens, innovation, and culture. They have strayed too far to deserve anything but punishment. Most alumni from past decades agree and want to go hard against them.
Unexplained Drones & Manned airplanes: People are concerned & aggravated by a lack of an explanation. Surely our esteemed administration must have some knowledge of the cause, or do they? A simple statement from someone in charge, say Biden or Mayorkas would suffice. I jest of course.
The ever-senile Joe doesn't know what planet he is on, so you can scratch him out. From what I have seen of Mayorkas, he has a hard time with the truth.
With over half of this nation's population having confidence in President elect Donald Triumph the question posed by the Free Press is "how long will it last", is a media wish it won't. Instead of running with that confidence, sow the seeds of doubt and who knows, failure. Get a life Mr. and Mrs. Media!! Semper Fi.
DOGE needs to adopt that "turn the knife inward" as a slogan for remaking the Federal bureaucracy. A tad draconian with bad imagery and worse company, but...
Syria, Iraq, Lebanon are failed Muslim states & the other Muslim "States" are controlled by tyrants. When one dictatorship falls in a Muslim State expect that a new bevy of beasts will fill the void! Those that believe Syria will morph into a democracy are delusional. America's outstanding leadership over the past four years has been an impediment, (Think only of Biden - Blinken-Sullivan Middle East Policies or lack there of)! So hope for the best & expect the worst.
The majority of Israelis are not “white” Ashkenazi but are Jewish people of color. These are Jews forced to leave Muslim lands where they had lived for centuries. I think we understand the Muslim culture!

“DHS secretary Alejandro Mayorkas insisted that the government has not seen “anything unusual.” Of course not.
And when the DHS and friends think US citizens are the enemy — China, Iran, Russia, N Korea all look like friendlies.

He absolutely should not be teaching.
Thanks for finally adding a link to The Front Page on TheFP site - long overdue.

Thank you. Let's hope the FP clarifies tomorrow.
The FP is not a fan of RFK, Jr. We will not see a clarification.
RFKjr is an apostate to the liberals. He is therefore worse than any conservative.

They are tribes. Three words in a nutshell.
Tribes with many years of history, conflicts and culture we cannot understand.

What? You don't think Libya has been an example of enlightened democracy? /sarc
I think if I had a kid that just had to go to Columbia U, I might disown them...
what a shitshow on doubling down...
