Columbia University faced a wave of fury over antisemitism on campus from billionaire donors Monday — with one calling pro-Palestinian mobs on the campus “f—ing crazy.”

Billionaire investor Leon Cooperman, a business school graduate, said he would stick with a stop on donations which began shortly after the October 7 Hamas massacres.Sources told The Post that other billionaires, including industrialist Len Blavatnik may also consider pulling back as the campus is rocked by pro-Hamas protests which have left Jewish students traumatized.

They would have continued donating except for the bad optics of it. Now they have to pretend they're offended.
The mobs protesting yesterday and today are one of the biggest stories of the year. America coming apart at the seams. Police are even arresting some of them——not a joke.
