It hasn’t happened yet but the TikTok ban seems imminent. The Senate advanced a major foreign aid package that includes a provision that could lead to a ban on TikTok on Tuesday, clearing a key procedural hurdle that brings the package one step closer to final passage after a monthslong back and forth with the […]
My apologies if this comes off sounding a bit on the crude side, but has someone in the administration at Harvard finally started to “grow a pair?” Following months of protests and disruptions, Harvard finally suspended the student group Harvard Undergraduate Palestine Solidarity Committee (PSC).

The Associated Press published a lengthy story yesterday looking at the long history of China lying about the origins of COVID-19.
