It is just sad for Americans. Sad for those who gets their lives ruined and ironically, a sad future for the glorious winners of the Culture War, given the trajectory they have put their country on. For now, they can cheer though.
Of course, for the rest of the world except China and Russia, it is a disaster.
Jesus Kristus !

He may or may not be braindead. He may or may not just lie.

Tbh being a Real Madrid fan is grounds for imprisonment on account of poor taste.
Canât believe this commie president is advocating for abolishing borders.
The governments of Qatar and Iran have been pumping billions of dollars into Ivy League schools to promote Islam and their narratives of history in the Middle East.
Letâs say we all agree that a government withholding funds to a university for political reasons is bad.
Why is it then OK for a foreign government to fund American universities to promote an ideological agenda that is both anti-Semitic and ultimately anti-American?
And why would we expect an American government not to respond?
This isnât about free speech.
[citation needed]
One of the most ridiculous things Iâve heard.
I posted the dollar figures further up. Thatâs money coming from those governments. Thatâs exactly what is going on.
You think the only country that funds shell companies, charities and NGOs to promote their interests abroad is America?
Why this would surprise anyone on a Premier League forum of all places blows my mind.
Liberals talking about liberal failure on a liberal show. Sensible stuff.

This is good
Some members â like Reps. Seth Moulton and Tom Suozzi, both of whom have recently met with McBride â received immediate intraparty backlash for publicly saying they oppose having trans athletes participate in womenâs and girlsâ sports. McBride thinks that type of response is unproductive.
âI think it is an incredibly problematic instinct that many have to excommunicate people who arenât in lockstep with you on every policy, or even arenât in lockstep with you on the messaging,â she said.
So, an article thatâs essentially regurgitating a âreportâ called The Corruption of the American Mind, by an âinstituteâ that is funded by Israel?
One that reports a correlation that is at best r=.5?
And thatâs without even delving deep into the methodology of the âstudyâ. But par for the course for your âevidenceâ in your bullshit, which is thinly-veiled far-right propaganda at best.
Thereâs a reason why Democrats approval ratings and trust in authority is at or near all-time lows.

You have TDS - Toro Derangement Syndrome
I like this guy
The tl;dr is Trump is awful and the Democrats are pathetic
It is, unpredictably, much more complicated. It is 3 different issues that are being subject to a slight of hand to fabricate a narrative
Compliance with rules on sources of funding has historically not been great and the Doe, across multiple administrations, have made attempts to address that. Most of then milquetoast attempts though. Some of the investigations into this issue identifies some of the poorly reported funding coming from the middle east. Notably, not this does necessarily mean governments, just from the middle east. At least some portion representing alumni donations from mega rich Arabs.
Separately, last year Bidenâs DNI released a report acknowledging that Iran was stirring the pot on the campus unrest that was already happening. They did not say that people were protesting because Iran has encouraging them to, it is just an age old story of a foreign power observing unrest already happening and trying to exploit it to their ends.
The third string is as you pointed out, an Israel funded think tank doing a study and claiming that unreported funding from the middle east is statistically associated with it defines as anti semitic activity on the campus. Unfortunately, we are well aware that this label has increasingly come to be meaningless. Furthermore, the authors not only correctly reject any claim of causality (money results in âanti semitismâ, they acknowledge that causality exists the direction may well be in the opposite direction - where campus activity has a pre-existing support for Palestine (something they treat as de facto anti semitic) these governments are more likely to provide support to.
Interestingly, if you look through the universities identified as receiving the most funding from the gulf states, the relationship immediately seems fuzzier than if you just focus on what Ivyes like Colombia are getting. Among the biggest recipients - Carnegie Mellon, a school known for its engineering and biotech, and Texas A&M, a school in deep red Trump country.
