The Needle has concluded that the State Department is likely asserting the power to deem U.S. citizens who they determine to be ideologically "far-left", and who seem to be especially active in transgender advocacy, as "national security" risks, and consequently revoking their passports.

The chapter raised pointed questions that were notably absent from the draft that the party put out, both about President Joseph R. Biden Jr.’s ill-fated decision to run for re-election and the sway of an operative class that had become “generationally wealthy off politics” while steering Democratic strategy.

And it pointedly raised the concern that most senior Democratic strategists in 2024 were “financially secure” and thus removed from the challenges facing many Americans. “It is therefore possible the people ‘in the room’ at the highest levels of 2024 decision making misunderstood the mood and practicalities facing everyday America,” the report read.

Columbia University is a university run by cowards AND full of cowards too, never forget this.

The Columbia University student workers' union withdrew its demand that the university divest financially from Israel at a bargaining meeting this week.

The union constitutes over 3,000 undergraduate and graduate student workers. At a general body meeting on Monday, the union’s members voted on the decision.

SWC-UAW pulled a contract article entitled “Obligations Under International Law,” which pressed the university to divest from companies and state actors in violation of international law, as defined by the United Nations and the International Criminal Court.

Columbia will open its global centre in Tel Aviv this summer.

The letters arrived with almost no warning.

Haitian families who fled a country consumed by violence and natural disaster, built lives here under a humanitarian program that let them live and work legally for years — and then watched that program get eliminated by the Trump administration — opened their mailboxes to a letter ordering them to report to an Immigration and Customs Enforcement field office for a mandatory “in-person check-in.”

The letter doesn’t say anything about leaving the appointment with an ankle bracelet bolted on, reporting their every move from then on out back to ICE.

But that is exactly what has awaited them at these mandatory appointments.
