Common sense and decency are back. Even the air smells fresher.
We, the taxpayer, should not be funding rise of Islamo-nazism. The jizya must end. No more funding Islamic armies.
Columbia is violating Title VI, the section of the Civil Rights Act that prohibits discrimination on the basis of “race, color, or national origin in programs and activities receiving federal financial assistance,” which would allow the Trump administration to withhold federal funding.

At present, Columbia has at least three active Title VI investigations into antisemitism and anti-Muslim sentiment on campus. Since October 7, 2023, Columbia’s campus has been embroiled in chaotic demonstrations against the State of Israel, prompting the House Committee on Education and the Workforce to conclude in a recent report that the university was “the site of some of the most disturbing and extreme antisemitic conduct violations in the country.”
Put another way, Stand Columbia Society predicts that Republicans may force “an uncomfortable reckoning that we can no longer wish away.” That reckoning—which Stand Columbia believes is possible, if not probable—could potentially cost the university up to $1.33 billion in government grants and contracts that it currently receives, including around $800 million dedicated solely for research.
And it’s not only federal grants that the university could lose if it is found in violation of Title VI.
Stand Columbia warns that $318 million in federal student aid, such as Pell grants or subsidized federal loans, and $785 million in Medicare and Medicaid, which the university receives through its hospital systems, could be in jeopardy, as they also fall under Title VI. Though the authors of the report believe the risk of these particular cuts is low, the report details “the public policy impacts” of what could amount to the crippling of “one of America’s premier academic medical centers.” (Free Press)

Trump Warns Universities: End Antisemitism or Lose Accreditation
By Hana Levi Julian, 11 Heshvan 5785 – November 12, 2024 0r
President-elect Donald Trump is taking obvious steps to protect Jews in America as well as the State of Israel.
In addition to naming pro-Israel lawmakers to key positions in his cabinet, Trump made a new campaign promise at a recent antisemitism event in Washington DC, pledging to protect Jewish students on American campuses.

“Here is what I will do to defeat anti-Semitism and defend our Jewish citizens in America,” he said.
“My first week back in the Oval Office my Administration will inform every College president that if you do not end antisemitic propaganda they will lose their accreditation and federal support,” Trump pledged.
“We will not subsidize the creation of terrorist sympathizers and we’re not going to do it certainly on American soil; we’re not going to do it anywhere.
“Next, I will inform every educational institution in our land that if they permit violence, harassment or threats against Jewish students the schools will be held accountable for violations of the civil rights law,” Trump added.
“It’s very important Jewish Americans must have equal protection under the law and they’re going to get it. At the same time, my Administration will move swiftly to restore safety for Jewish students and Jewish people on American streets.”
Antisemitism has skyrocketed across America over the past several years.
Antisemitic Hate Crimes in US Hit New Record in 2023
During his previous term, Trump issued an Executive Order on combating antisemitism by adding Jews to the list of minority groups protected against discrimination under Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
“Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (Title VI), 42 U.S.C. 2000d et seq., prohibits discrimination on the basis of race, color, and national origin in programs and activities receiving Federal financial assistance. While Title VI does not cover discrimination based on religion, individuals who face discrimination on the basis of race, color, or national origin do not lose protection under Title VI for also being a member of a group that shares common religious practices. Discrimination against Jews may give rise to a Title VI violation when the discrimination is based on an individual’s race, color, or national origin.
