zionist counterprotestors literally climbing columbia’s gates (that they claim to close for student safety) were overheard thanking cops & the cops replying you’re welcome. many members of proud boys outside today & actual christian nationalists & neo nazis.
According to colleagues, IU faculty arrested at the Palestine solidarity encampment are slapped w 1yr bans from campus. I have seen many examples of police brutality agst campus protests over the yrs- inc student bans - but I have never heard of faculty targeted this way before
Horrific, but also, nice to see from an economist

Spent the day off from the Trump trial talking to Columbia students about the months of planning that went into their encampment and the “ridiculous” narrative about outside agitators floated by Mayor Adams, Kaz Daughtry and others apnews.com/article/inside…
big thank you to everyone at @pal_legal for your help with this complaint. Columbia University has failed to address the hate that Palestinian students experience. This complaint is w/ the Department of Education, meaning that Columbia can lose federal funding.

Why is @wutrain supporting police violence against protesters? wcvb.com/article/mayor-…
Wow—Former spokesperson for hostage families says Hamas offered to immediately release all hostages if IDF didn't invade Gaza "but the government rejected the proposal." Says families weren't notified about invasion + risks it could pose. "Netanyahu has thwarted" hostage release.
Once again: Students at southern schools like UT Austin and Emory often face the most brutal forms of state violence first. This then sets the tone for the rest of the US. If shooting Emory students is not roundly denounced now it will eventually begin at Columbia as well.

Very annoyed that it has been three days since the Federal Reserve Board mailed me at minimum 30,000 pages of documents fulfilling my FOIA request and it still has not arrived. How long does it take for a government agency in DC to get mail to a residence in Manhattan?
This would be the kind of thing you could run on if it came six months earlier and not during a genocide.

Amid today's news, it may be hard to make space for this report that @Regmi_Ira & I have written on the civil rights struggle to eradicate involuntary unemployment. But there is an important connection between free speech, robust protest, & protection from economic immiseration🧵

This is the Columbus Jewish Federation and Foundation’s (@JewishColumbus) legacy. In the middle of a genocide that has killed at least 14,000 children, they refuse to send funds to Palestine Children’s Relief Fund. Shame!
Update: after being told that “any charitable organizations with active 501(c)(3) status are eligible to receive donations,” I was informed today that “The [Jewish] Foundation is not going to accept your distribution recommendation to the Palestine Children’s Relief Fund.”
He went with HIS father😭
Father shows up for his daughter protesting against genocide at USC in Los Angeles 🇵🇸 “I imagine being a father in Palestine.. to see my kid be assassinated by Israel.”
The expansion of these protests across universities is astonishing. The widespread involvement of faculty is heartening. We don’t know what will happen as a result of all this. But it is likely that much will change as a result. We owe our college students a lot.
hearing numerous reports today that administrators have taken over a number of american universities, and are only able to defend their position by force of arms, lacking the legitimacy provided by improving either the institution they work for or the education provided by it
Sniper on the roof of the IMU. Absolutely unhinged response to a nonviolent encampment by a murderous and paranoid police state.
When I was reporting in the outskirts of Paris in 2017, the anti-police brutality protestors there told me they learned how to organize pressers, rallies, with t-shirts and signs etc quickly after someone had been killed or hurt by police by learning from organizers in Chicago.
Every so often I’m reminded of how, after the police killing of Michael Brown, Palestinians shared with Ferguson protestors how to take the sting out of tear gas.
@NathanTankus Yeah, things are moving slower since postmaster general DeJoy lowered the standards.

“Can you call the philosophy department and tell them I’ve been arrested?” is an all-time quote.

In 2020, I had coffee with two Democratic pollsters who argued that @justicedems and the Squad should bend the knee to AIPAC/DMFI with respect to conditioning weapons weapons aid to Israel, citing the high financial and political costs for any opposition.
We need to rebuild the Green New Deal brand to the point that anti-genocide is as central as anti-carbon pollution. It’s obvious, but we need to be explicit. And then we have some accountability work to do w some political leaders.
