Universities warned about failure to protect Jewish students

 Daily Caller:

The Department of Education sent letters to 60 universities Monday warning of consequences for failing to protect Jewish students on campus.

The letters were sent to universities currently under investigation for antisemitic events and possible Title VI violations, including Yale, Harvard and the University of Michigan, according to the department’s press release.

“The Department is deeply disappointed that Jewish students studying on elite U.S. campuses continue to fear for their safety amid the relentless antisemitic eruptions that have severely disrupted campus life for more than a year. University leaders must do better,” Secretary of Education Linda McMahon said in the announcement. “U.S. colleges and universities benefit from enormous public investments funded by U.S. taxpayers. That support is a privilege and it is contingent on scrupulous adherence to federal antidiscrimination laws.”

Several universities have been accused of egregious civil rights violations for allowing pro-Palestinian activists to continuously harass Jewish students since the start of the Israel-Gaza War. Protesters assembled at countless universities across the country in support of Hamas, pitching illegal multi-week encampments, disrupting university functions and harassing Jewish students.

The Trump administration has already pulled hundreds of millions of dollars from Columbia University over its noncompliance with civil rights laws, allowing fiery protests to occur across campus for over a year. Protests at Columbia resulted in hundreds of arrests after demonstrators overtook a campus building and maintained illegal encampments.

Hamas is a genocidal organization that favors the extinction of the Jewish race.  Hamas should be treated like the Nazis they emulate.  I have never understood what is behind the Jew-hatred.  I have had Jewish friends from childhood to this day.  I still recall some Jewish friends I had while attending the University of Texas.  In high school in San Benito, Texas one of my favorite teachers was a Jewish woman.  Her husband was a wealthy banker in town.

I can only recall one Palestinian I came in contact with while in college.  He seemed to be struggling to make it through school.

Should Republicans go ahead and add Supreme Court Justices to head off Democrats

Washington Post: Some Democrats eye adding more justices to the Supreme Court to change its ideological bent The once-remote idea has gained the attention of liberals angered by the GOP push to remake the federal courts. Probably the easy way to defeat this court-packing scheme is for Trump to propose doing the same thing now.  It would lead to Democrat denunciations and claims that it would be wrong, thereby blowing up any attempt by them in the unfortunate event of Democrats winning a presidential election.

Is the F-35 obsolete?

Headline USA: Pentagon Fires Back after Musk Calls Its Most Expensive Project ‘Obsolete’ 'Yeah, as I'm sure you can appreciate, Mr. Musk is, currently, a private citizen, I'm not going to make any comments about what a private citizen may have to say about the F-35....'   ... ... Drones appear to be replacing jets for many operations.  The Russia-Ukraine war is an example of that.  Drones are often hard to detect and can be used for intelligence operations as well as for attacking enemy targets.  It would not surprise me to see drones engaging other drones in combat.  They also cost much less than manned fighters.

29 % of companies say they are unlikely to keep insurance after Obamacare

Conn Carroll: A new survey of 368 midsize to large companies found that 29% of them are considering terminating their active employee health care plans when Obamacare is full implemented in 2014. Only 71% of employers surveyed said they did not expect to drop their health coverage, while 20% said they did not know and 9% said they were planning to exit. The latest survey, conducted by Towers Watson, echoes an ealier survey by McKinsey & Co. finding that 30% of private-sector employers were planning to drop their employee health insurance coverage by 2014. When the Congressional Budget Office crunched Obamacare's spending numbers, they estimated that only 7% of employees currently covered by employer-sponsored plans would lose their plans. ... This means the cost of the health care fiasco will be hundreds of billions more than estimated by the CBO and Congressional Democrat. It is also clear that Obama's pledge that you could keep your health care plan if you wanted t...
