Oregon National Guard Adjutant General, General Gronewold says if they are federalized, that he will advise the Title 10 commander to utilize National Guard Troops to PROTECT protesters at ICE facilities. This is the right answer.

One of the most striking aspects of ICE conduct is the lack of discipline and consequent overreach. Silence from leadership encourages this and much worse: body slamming, angry thuggish behavior.
Federal officer blasts chemical spray into vocal but nonviolent Portland protester, video shows
The interaction illustrates how federal law enforcement officers do use aggressive tactics against protesters who yell and needle officers but don’t appear to present clear physical threats.

Does anyone but journalists actually read Trump’s drivel on his vanity social media platform? It’s so boring and juvenile. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

District Attorney of Philadelphia:
The 10th Amendment says he cannot take over the Philadelphia Police Department. There’s no legal basis and there’s no emergency. We have the lowest rate of homicides in 50 years. The only emergency is Donald Trump.

Israel’s only path to restoring its international standing will require a new government, a withdrawal from Gaza, acceptance of a two state solution, prosecution of Netanyahu and the architects of the Gaza genocide, and a lot of time. If it is possible.

Most reporting is just not up to the task of registering both that 1) the White House is *attacking* universities *as institutions* 2) the White House is working *with* universities’ boards to achieve *common goals* for remaking and weakening those institutions
Boards of Trustees ***LIKE*** the Trump demands. They ***AGREE*** with them.
They like the idea of putting the screws on activist, lefty, and Muslim students. They like the idea of a whiter student body and conservative curriculum. They want these things and think $200 million is a fair price.

Students of Columbia in 1776 tore down a statue of King George that was on campus when the declaration of independence was announced there(It was named Kings College) and melted it down to make musket balls. Today that same university sadly decided to hand its balls over to a would be modern king.
