New York Gov. Kathy Hochul slammed House Speaker Mike Johnson for visiting Columbia University amid pro-Palestinian protests by students on the campus. “I think politicizing this and bringing the entourage to put a spotlight on this is only adding to the division,” Ms. Hochul told reporters, according to Politico. “A speaker worth the title should […]
Over the past few days we’ve gotten a more detailed account of what is happening inside the Columbia “Liberated Zone” and it sounds like the same leftist nonsense we’ve seen in every one of these far-left occupations going back to Occupy Wall Street in 2011. Inside the gates, megaphones and drums echoed as hundreds of […]
Columbia University has given students another 48 hours to clear out the vast encampment covering the lawn in front of the Butler Library, warning that the school will consider “alternative options” if the protesters refuse to leave.

For a university that houses the most ostensibly prestigious school of journalism in the nation, Columbia seems to struggle oddly with the concept of the term “deadline.” Of course, as Marc Caputo observed earlier this week, they also struggle with the word “journalism.” With its top journalism school and journalism review, Columbia holds an esteemed […]

NEW YORK — Columbia University said early Wednesday that it was making “important progress” with pro-Palestinian student protesters who set up a tent encampment and that it was extending a deadline to clear out, yet standoffs remained tense on the Ivy League campus in upper Manhattan. Student protesters “have committed to dismantling and removing a […]
Be the unintelligent pawn of a left-wing professor … yeah, that’s the ticket! Comedian Jon Lovitz ridiculed the anti-Israel student protesters as just that on social media this week. The former “Saturday Night Live” star addressed a post on X to “the students at @Columbia, and any other students at colleges across the United States, […]
