51 Texas state reps demand that 650 UT-Austin faculty resign, claiming they are expressing 'leftist thought' by signing a petition.

Let's be clear: under academic freedom, leftist thought is not an offense (nor is rightist thought). This is government suppression of an idea.

Ronald Reagan paused the delivery of F-16s to Israel after it bombed an Iranian nuclear reactor in 1981. Then, after Israel invaded Lebanon and bombed Beirut in 1982, Reagan refused to deliver 75 F-16s and limited military aid until Israel withdrew its troops from Lebanon.

yes we know; that could have been stopped months ago, by Biden

He says the quiet part out loud 👇

Sen. Bernie Sanders calls President Biden’s warning to Netanyahu “a good step forward,” but “we’ve got to do even more.”

Maybe...civil disobedience works?

A New York real estate developer — and “distant cousin” to Jewish Defense League founder Meir Kahane — was charged with felony assault after police said he hit a woman with his car during a pro-Palestinian demonstration led by students. apnews.com/article/columb…

If Biden were to say: no weapons unless you dig up dirt on Trump, THAT would be the same.

Can’t make this stuff up.

Let's make this happen
