Did you know that Columbia University gets $3.5 billion per year in grants from the U.S. Government? Under President Trump, that is all about to change.
What the fuck?
Columbia students held a memorial for Yahya Sinwar, the leader of Hamas who was the mastermind behind the October 7th massacre.

But wait, there’s more! Columbia University students held an anti-Veterans Day protest today to honor the Palestinian ‘martyrs’ of the Israel-US ‘war machine.’
NY Post According to the unsanctioned student group Columbia University Apartheid Divests: “Veterans Day is an American holiday to honor the patriotism, love of country, and sacrifice of veterans. We reject this holiday and refuse to celebrate it,” a flyer for the agitator group’s event said.
“The American war machine should not be honored for the horrors unleashed on others,” the flyer added. “Instead, we will celebrate Martyrs Day in honor of those (terrorists) martyred by the Israel-US war machine. A day to honor the patriotism, love of country, and sacrifice of those martyrs.”
The protest was viewed as a slap in the face after the on-campus vitriol sparked by Hamas’ Oct. 7 attack on Israel — much of which wound up directed at student-veterans.
“That post really shook the hornet’s nest,” said Sam Nahins, a 31-year-old Air Force veteran and Columbia graduate student who completed his undergraduate degree at the school in the spring.
“They’ve never hid their disdain for veterans. But now it’s really out in the open,” he added. “Last year when students and faculty members were running around dressing up as jihadists and screaming ‘Death to America,’ ‘Death to Western civilization,’ death to everything but their cause, I had friends get called infidels, and murderers and baby-killers.”
Most concerning to Nahins is the effect something like a “Martyrs Day” demonstration might have on the mental health of his fellow campus vets following such a tumultuous year — especially after one of his best friends from school took his own life just months ago.
That friend was Brandon Christie, a US Marine Corps veteran who was working on an undergraduate degree in mathematics-statistics when he stopped going to class in the weeks after Oct. 7 last year.
Christie eventually dropped out of school altogether, and after vanishing in September, was found dead, apparently by his own hand, in an upstate park days later.
“This has all been really detrimental towards the mental health of veterans, and just nothing was really being done about it,” Nahins said.
Columbia University Apartheid Divest did not respond to a request for comment.
The group’s flyer has made its rounds outside campus — including to some New York lawmakers who reacted with disgust.
“Any effort to dishonor our veterans is disgraceful and must be confronted head-on. Columbia University cannot allow these un-American terrorist supporters to insult the brave men and women who defended our freedoms,” said Queens Councilman Robert Holden, who saw the flyer.
“These lunatics will not reclaim Veterans Day — not today, not ever,” he added.
Why dont we give them free beepers
Great idea! 🤗
Those Columbian University students are young and foolish and have been brainwashed. These students also are very ignorant of the facts regarding Israel and Hamas.
Rich Jews who give money to Columbia are stupid or self hating Jews. Why give money to a university that promotes hattred of you?
A lot big money Jewish donor are no longer giving to these schools anymore because of the rampant antisemitism.
This is worse than back in the 60s when some of my fellow comrades in arms were spat upon. These despicable pieces of fecal matter should be thrown out of school and any of them in the US on a visa should be thrown out of the country.
Trump did say he was going to deport the foreign Hamas supporters on campus.
I hope he does.
I’ve lost track. Was Sinwar the dude with the giant hole in his forehead?
Yep, that was him.
Good.
👍
I call him the Ash Wednesday dude.
🤭
and what a beautifull picture it made, gimmi more
Yes, he was the rat-faced inbreed who died alone covered in blood with an arm missing, abandoned by his comrades and defeated by his intellectual and spiritual superiors, all for the world to see and enjoy.
