Days after immigration officers arrested a prominent pro-Palestinian campus activist, administrators at Columbia University gathered students and faculty from the journalism school and issued a warning.
Students who were not U.S. citizens should avoid publishing work on Gaza, Ukraine and protests related to their former classmate’s arrest, urged Stuart Karle, a First Amendment lawyer and adjunct professor. With about two months to go before graduation, their academic accomplishments — or even their freedom — could be at risk if they attracted the ire of the Trump administration.
“If you have a social media page, make sure it is not filled with commentary on the Middle East,” he told the gathering in Pulitzer Hall. When a Palestinian student objected, the journalism school’s dean, Jelani Cobb, was more direct about the school’s inability to defend international students from federal prosecution.
“Nobody can protect you,” Mr. Cobb said. “These are dangerous times.”
Just don't support actual terrorist groups how hard is it?
 
he's probably already paid off the DNC to give him the nomination then. i can't imagine playing nice with the "heckin' literal nazis" would go to well for him in a primary with how batshit the democrat base is now.
'Funny' how the party that caterwaul about demokraceeeeeei are the only ones provably fucking with the electoral process, a la wikileaks.
 
This matches this twitter post I saw earlier in the thread:

There was also a twitter thread by an economicist who is now part of the Trump admin talking about the tarrifs and the games he's playing with them from about 50-100 pages back, which I don't have handy, and I think it talked about this too.

In short, the stock market is fake and gay and tying it to our general economy was a huge fucking mistake. The ... M2? number shows there's MASSIVE stock fraud going on (they claim to have more money than the rest of the Earth combined in the market or somesuch bullshit) and remember, the GameStop thing revealed they were literally counterfeiting stock on an industrial scale as a matter of course. It's why they had such a huge freakout as to literally prevent people from accessing the stock market and having Google/Apple disable new downloads of any stock trading apps while they slowly unwound the damage. It came within a few minutes of causing a complete crash.
I'll never forget the time they paused the stock market because too many retards were making bank off the GameStop stock. That was the first indication for me that it's all fucking made up.

That or they're using him to hedge their bets. Keep up with the lunacy for now, if that continues to fail they can swap in the "common sense candidate". Problem with that is Vance will mudhole stomp him in any debate they have based on his record alone.
 
Serious question what percentage of the people have 401k ? Sounds like upper class shit
I got one when I was working a shit retail management job back in the late 90s. They matched up to 6% there. It was free money and yet most of my co-workers never did it because they didn't want to see the reduction in their weekly pay. Ive been maxing 401k's ever since even if the company match isn't great. If not for my 401k's I would never be able to retire.

It's not a upper class thing. Even Walmart and McD's offer matched 401k. If your company offers 401k that they match and you don't take advantage of it then your a strait retard for not doing it. Its free money.

If that kahil guy was a foregien fed Imagine how many other protest leaders are or were also foreign feds

Of course the article plays dumb about why Mahmoud was arrested, and blames it on some "scapegoat plot" to reduce antisemitism. No mention of him dumping pro-hamas fliers and posting how he wants to destroy western civilization. I really don't hate journalists enough.
 
I had a talk with a woman I respect about this shit.

Her tax guy was saying she should get an IRA. I told her given my situation I dont really like those things. I personally think uncle sam should just take his fucking cut, up front. in all cases. Tax deferment is stupid.
Ira is for backdoor conversion unless you are a poor. In which case you wont have an Ira that keeps money in it sense it caps at like 150k a year income to give you any benefit other than conversion.

The big thing about ira is that amount you put in reduces your taxable income. So it may make you go down a bracket if you borderline.
 
So NASA is launching more crews into low earth orbit to do Soyence stuff. I've heard a little bit about restructuring NASA but I feel like Trump should just fucking shutter them. $25 billion of our tax dollars per year these faggots get to hang out in zero-g (LOOK MY HAIR IS STANDING UP DO YOU SEE I AM IN SPACE) and do nothing else. There was a propaganda piece on TV just now and its the same vague descriptions: We're hoping to take the next steps to explore the Universe and go to the Moon (LMAO) and Mars (LMFAO).

It cannot be overstated that no man has been beyond Low Earth Orbit (about 1100 miles up), except for the anomalous Apollo missions. Moon Truthers have not been deboonked yet.

ETA: gimme those sweet shiny garbage cans

Up here they count as a proper deduction when you're going through bankruptcy so your monthly income calculation is a lot lower. If you do it right you can end up paying the minimum in bankruptcy fees while making bank.

Frankly I just want them to put a space hotel up there and be able to have my great-grandkids do homesteading under the lunar dome.

JD Vance should offer to start debating democrats already so they can drop out like Biden. After he beats off a couple dozen men and women on live television maybe some good democrats will emerge. I don't even mean good as in aligned with me politically I mean not straight up evil or retarded.

Or that he's an MI6 intelligence asset operating within the United States. He is by the way.
