    WHAT TWO-TIERED JUSTICE SYSTEM? 

     

    Alvin Bragg May Not Prosecute Pro-Palestinian Rioters Who Occupied Columbia University.

     

    6bcd5722-5c51-4de8-addc-dda8ff67fd93-105

     

     

    On Wednesday, Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg refused to say whether he will prosecute the pro-Palestinian rioters who broke into and took over Hamilton Hall at Columbia University.

     

    Bragg is currently prosecuting Donald Trump for an alleged campaign finance violation that is normally tried as a misdemeanor offense and would normally result in a fine as a felony. In addition to elevating the misdemeanor offense to a felony, the statute of limitations on the alleged crime had passed. On top of that, nondisclosure agreements are not illegal.

     

    Despite Bragg's overzealousness to go after Trump, he was unresponsive to inquiries from the Daily Caller regarding potential charges for pro-Palestinian rioters arrested on Tuesday. The New York Police Department (NYPD) arrested 119 rioters at Columbia University on Tuesday evening, as well as 173 at a City University of New York (CUNY) protest, where students also took over an administrative building.

    It's tough to be a Democrat when antisemites own your party.

     

    Biden Makes Things WORSE Babbling About Hate Speech and (Wait for It) ISLAMOPHOBIA

     

     

    Biden finally spoke about what is happening on college campuses across the country.

    We think.

     

    To be honest, it gets harder and harder to decipher what the old geezer is saying, NOT because of his magical stutter but because he's just a babbling buffoon of a baboon. Leave it to Ol' Joe to talk about ISLAMOPHOBIA while antisemitism is rampant at Ivy Leagues and other colleges.

    BIDEN STILL STUCK IN “VERY FINE PEOPLE ON BOTH SIDES” MODE: 

     

    Biden Satisfies No One With Lackluster Speech Decrying ‘Antisemitism & Islamophobia:’

     

    Summary: Last night, CNN spent its prime time segment decrying the Democratic president’s “radio silence” on the Gaza-related campus protests and chaos. MSM pundits have pointed to his lack of leadership as violence at times erupted from UCLA to Columbia to a number of elite schools.

     

    As expected, Biden began by trying to chart a kind of middle course condemning “antisemitism” and “Islamophobia”… though many conservatives have pointed out it’s only the former they are seeing evidence of during these campus protests.

     

    “Dissent is essential to democracy. But dissent must never lead to disorder or denying the rights of others… no place for hate speech in America,” Biden said. “Denying the rights of others” appears a very vague reference to students occupying buildings, and denying the ability of tuition-paying students to go to their classes, libraries, or to take exams.

     

    “In moments like this, there are always those who rush in to score political points. But this isn’t a moment for politics. It’s a moment for clarity. So let me be clear…Violent protest is not protected. Peaceful protest is.”

     

    “Destroying property is not a peaceful protest, it’s against the law. Vandalism, trespassing, breaking windows*, shutting down campuses, forcing the cancellation of classes and graduation. None of this is a peaceful protest, threatening people, intimidating people,” Biden said.

     

    We should note that Biden’s ‘middle way’ attempt (akin to “good folks on both sides” rhetoric that the Left gets angry about) is unlikely to satisfy either side. In the end, this lackluster speech is not going to make the encampments disappear, or the protesters disperse.

    Joe Biden's Disappearing Act

    JAZZ SHAW 

     

    02af4624-fda4-4ef3-b896-13babd5766f2-105

     

    When I got up this morning, I flipped through several news channels as I typically do. There was only one story being covered for the most part. Everyone was delivering live coverage of the action unfolding at the UCLA campus after the LAPD finally moved in to break up the ongoing pro-Hamas protests. Police decked out in riot gear were tearing down barricades and continually firing flashbangs as they faced off against a collection of students, faculty, and outside professional agitators who were almost all wearing hardhats, gas masks, and goggles to protect themselves from teargas. The press spiced up the coverage with occasional comments from political leaders ranging from Donald Trump to Speaker Johnson, all of whom condemned the rioters. But there was one figure conspicuously missing in this debate. Where is President Joe Biden? He apparently has little to nothing to say about all of this mayhem. 

     

    {snip}

     

    So we should ask yet again... where is Joe Biden? During times like this, a real leader would be speaking out and urging calm, supporting a return to law and order. But that's not Scranton Joe's style.

     

    From the day he took office, he demonstrated that not only was the idea of law and order not a priority for him, but he saw it as an obstacle to his goals. He refuses to enforce immigration laws and criticizes police when they do their jobs. Why would he come out in opposition to rioting? To do so might cost him a couple of votes in Michigan and Minnesota.

    Arizona Senate passes repeal of 1864 abortion ban

    NBC News, by Adam Edelman & Alex Tabet

     

    The Arizona Senate voted Wednesday to pass a repeal of the near-total ban on abortion from 1864 that was upheld by the battleground state’s Supreme Court last month. The bill, which the state House approved last week, will soon head to Democratic Gov. Katie Hobbs for her signature. Hobbs has said she will sign the repeal bill.

    Of the 300 Pro-Hamas Agitators Arrested at Columbia, Most Weren't Students

    by Sarah Arnold

     

    New York City Mayor Eric Adams (D) sounds the alarm that the roughly 300 pro-Hamas protestors arrested by NYPD Tuesday night at Columbia University and City College of New York may not be students— but rather part of radical terrorist organizations. Adams said that when he became aware that the majority of the pro-terrorism protestors weren’t students but professional agitators, he promised to fight for the American “way of life” as the demonstrators continued to harass Jewish communities. “Once I became aware of the outside agitators who were part of this operation, as Columbia mentioned in their letter
