Anti-Israel demonstrators at the Rhode Island School of Design are occupying an administrative building and demanding the school divest from Israel. Even though the protesters were given a deadline of 8 a.m. ET Tuesday to clear the building, the school's Students for Justice in Palestine chapter issued an alert on its Instagram telling people to "show up in support" of the protest.

A public health emergency has been declared in Long Beach, California, due to a tuberculosis outbreak. A declaration from Dr. Anissa Davis, Long Beach’s health officer, said one person has died and nine people have been hospitalized, according to Live Science. Fourteen people with active TB had been identified as of April 29. All cases have been linked to a single-room-occupancy hotel. Officials are not naming the hotel in what they said was an effort to protect patients’ privacy. “People who were staying at the hotel at the time or could have otherwise been exposed have been or will be...

Pretty much anything you can make with shrimp, you can make with cicadas.

Democratic governor Kathy Hochul was forced to issue a groveling apology after she suggested that black children in New York do not know what computers are. Hochul spoke in California at the Milken Institute Global Conference on Monday, claiming she would enable a more diverse tech workforce. During her speech, the out-of-touch Democrat declared, “Right now we have, you know, young black kids growing up in the Bronx who don’t even know what the word ‘computer’ is.” “They don’t know, they don’t know these things. And I want the world opened up to all of them,” she added. Watch VIDEO...

Pro-Hamas student protesters at George Washington University are now openly calling for the beheading of the school president and members of the board of trustees. They allowed this situation to go on for too long and now it’s completely out of control. As you’ll see in the video below, these students are actually chanting ‘Guillotine, Guillotine!’ NBC 15 News reports: GW president says school needs help from DC police as protesters call for beheadings The president of George Washington University said late Sunday night her school needs the help of local police to restore law and order as anti-Israel encampment...

It’s disappointing to watch an increasing number of Republicans fall in line behind former president Donald Trump. This includes some of his fiercest detractors, such as U.S. Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, New Hampshire Gov. Chris Sununu and former U.S. Attorney General Bill Barr, who raised eyebrows during a recent interview by vowing to support the “Republican ticket.”This mentality is dead wrong.Yes, elections are a binary choice. Yes, serious questions linger about President Biden’s ability to serve until the age of 86. His progressive policies aren’t to conservatives’ liking.But the GOP will never rebuild until we move on from the...

Vice President Kamala Harris had an odd reaction to reporters asking her about the purported ceasefire framework from Qatar and Egypt which Hamas claimed it agreed to Monday. “Madame Vice President, Hamas says it accepted a ceasefire deal. Your reaction?” a reporter asked her, a video Nick Sortor shared to Twitter shows. “Shrimp and grits!” Harris interjected. “You wanted to know? Shrimp and grits,” she repeated as she pointed to a plastic bag presumably full of food.

So far, the witnesses in the former president’s ‘hush money’ trial seem to be undermining the Manhattan DA’s case. Since the so-called Trump “hush money” trial started three weeks ago, Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg has called a handful of high-profile witnesses in his case against former President Donald Trump who have appeared to contradict Bragg's central claims. Hope Hicks – a former communications aide for Trump – last week delivered testimony that undercut Bragg’s main charge, that Trump orchestrated the “hush money” payments to women claiming they had affairs with him to improperly influence the outcome of the 2016...

The spectacular rise of the AfD party has alarmed Germany’s political establishment, some of whom are threatening a ban. A few months ago, Germany’s leading news magazine, Der Spiegel, ran a bizarre front-page cartoon showing a modern-day “Lorelei” character at the river Rhine with a message underscoring their deep uneasiness about the rise of right-wing politics in Germany. Lorelei, the mythical blond beauty sitting with her harp on a rock at the river, was depicted on the cover in Germany’s leading left-wing magazine with the facial features of Alice Weidel, the co-leader of the Alternative for Germany (AfD) party. In...

Gov. Healey emphasizes that hospitals remain open during process BROOKLINE, Mass. — Steward Health Care, the troubled operator of eight hospitals in Massachusetts, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection early Monday. In a statement, the company said it was seeking the process voluntarily to facilitate a restructuring process. The for-profit, private equity-backed hospital group's troubles exploded into view this year with the revelation that it owed about $50 million in unpaid rent. Steward officials subsequently closed one facility and have expressed interest in selling their other holdings. "I don't want to lose sight of the fact that this situation stems...

When J.G. Ballard’s 1962 short story, The Garden of Time, was announced as the theme for this year’s Met Gala several months ago, I printed off a copy. It seemed oddly thoughtful for such a plastic event. In all likelihood, it was an entirely superficial decision. J.G. Ballard’s garden has flowers. Flowers are pretty. Time is crazy. That sort of thing.But whether the organizers know it or not, The Garden of Time is the perfect choice for this year’s Met Gala, which takes place just a short walk from Columbia University. It’s a story about Count Axel and his wife,...

On May 1, Christopher Scalia tweeted side-by-side photos of a masked protester standing over a banner reading Hind’s Hall and a masked terrorist striking the same pose on a balcony. Scalia captioned the photos “Manhattan 2024 meets Munich 1972,” a perfectly legitimate parallel that could stand an update.On September 5, 1972, at the Olympic Games in Munich, Palestinian terrorists of the Black September faction, disguised as athletes, forced their way into the quarters of the Israeli Olympic team. Weightlifter Yossef Romano, on crutches due to an injury, attempted to disarm a terrorist but was shot dead and castrated, a mutilation...

They're out on the streets protesting and outside their parliament demanding a deal to bring back loved ones and aren't happy with their government or Netanyahu I hope the Neocons who demand Hamas be nuked etc. take note of this ? It really isn't that simple. There is considerable diverse opinion and a demand for PEACE and a deal among citizens.

The Freedom Center is exposing these academic institutes and programs as “The Top Ten Jew-Hating Academic Departments” in a new report. We will be publishing one school per day as a series on Frontpage. The Center for Palestine Studies at Columbia University is #3 on our list. In the days following Hamas’s barbaric October 7th massacre of Israeli civilians, university campuses across the nation became a focal point for—and a symbol of—the Jew hatred that infects our culture. One of the foremost examples on that list is Columbia University, where just one day after the attacks, twenty campus organizations signed...

“Ok, let’s be clear. If the intelligence community led by the CIA is not the “deep state,” what is?” — Jeffrey Tucker. You realize, don’t you, that the gross misconduct of government officials from RussiaGate on down to the courtroom of Judge Juan Merchan has amounted to one continuous operation against the American people? If it were ever honestly adjudicated, many hundreds of them might go to prison, or worse. Each successive seditious and treasonous action they attempt against their arch-nemesis, Mr. Trump, only compounds their criminal liability — the Steele Dossier, CIA agent Eric Ciaramella’s 2019 impeachment prank, the...
