The Columbia protester diet: Anti-Israel students munch on Pret sandwiches, pricey nuts and sip Dunkin’

Bellies are full, but the tantrums continue.

The anti-Israel Columbia University students hunkering down on the Ivy League’s West Lawn received a hefty food delivery Wednesday — as they show no signs of abandoning their makeshift tent city.

Fruits, nuts, granola bars and overpriced sandwiches were being handed out like candy to the protesters, who were given a 48-hour extension to camp out on the grounds before the administration warned it would clear them out.

The evening meal marked one week of the group’s headlining-making demonstration as similar ones have spread like wildfire to other elite campuses across the country.

Talk about privileged.

FBI Director Christopher Wray: “TikTok, for us, represents a national security concern.”

In the meanwhile, this dimwit is not pushing Dementia Joe to close the border where actual terrorists walk into the U.S.

Wray's words are a bunch of baloney.

Can he be any MORE of a flower-girl for Biden?

Jewish students, come here to the South — where you’ll be safe

OMG, how I'd love to post this on DU!

You wouldn't be able to see the screen refresh after hitting [Enter] on that post before Lord Marblehead and his M.I.R.T. minions had it down the memory hole and you staring eye to eye with a granite pizza.

All that evil and criminality sure aged hillary.

You didn't think Satan was going to give her the adrenachrome recipe for free, did you?

Her problem is that she didn't phrase what she wanted in return as carefully as she should have. Leave wiggle room in a contract and the Devil will take advantage of it every time.

Yet none of those are the reason that certain parts of our government want it banned.

They want it banned because unlike facebook and the like, it is beyond their control.

Actually they wanted the ban because there's a tiny little clause in the legislation that says they can do it to any other website that "raises similar concerns".

It was no more than allowing the camel's nose in under the tent wall.

I'm torn.  TikTok is at least collecting and feeding tons of data directly to the Chicoms, including things like location data and images from government employee phones, including when they are in secure locations with said phones that have the app installed.  At worst it's a Chicom psyop, dumbing down Americans (especially da youts) and spreading misinformation.  However, banning apps is not easy, and it's very debatable if the feds have the Constitutional power to even try. 

However, Fed employees, especially military, should absolutely be banned from having the app on any official device, and can probably be told to leave their personal devices with the app at home, away from any government building/worksite/ect. 

Should Congress be focusing more on other things?  Yes they should.  Is this app an issue that needs to be looked at?  Yes it is, again, particularly on government devices and in government facilities.

Yet none of those are the reason that certain parts of our government want it banned.

They want it banned because unlike facebook and the like, it is beyond their control.

It is simply fodder for low information people to glance at while they're stuck in a line at the checkout.

Jewish students in the Ivy League, I’m here to offer an invitation: Come to the South, where you’ll be safe.

It’s manifestly not safe to be an Ivy League Jew. A prominent Columbia rabbi “strongly” advised Jewish students to go home and not come back: It’s become clear “Columbia University’s Public Safety and the NYPD cannot guarantee Jewish students’ safety in the face of extreme antisemitism and anarchy,” Rabbi Elie Buechler told students this week over WhatsApp.
...
My advice to Jewish students at these institutions: Come on down. At schools like mine, the University of Tennessee, in red states, such intimidation, harassment and lawlessness aren’t tolerated.

In my city of Knoxville, after Hamas’ Oct. 7 rape/torture/murder/kidnapping spree, we had a pro-Israel rally attended by all our major civic leaders. The allegedly elite schools had marches in support of Hamas.

In the red states, support for Israel isn’t controversial. In our allegedly elite northeastern and California universities it can get you mobbed.

All the cities that are having these problems have one thing in common. They are all run by Democrats. The very same kinds of people that are causing the riots and protest. It's the same now and it was the same way back in the 60's and further back than that, I doubt that many have been started by conservatives here in the US.
