On the *same day* the Cornell Seven drugged and raped Jane Doe, Cornell banned four students (including the President of Cornell JVP) from campus for three years for nonviolent, pro-Palestine protests. The same Cornell officials let the rapists off with apology essays.

Those 7 men assumed there would be no consequences for their crime. The staff confirmed the assumption when they asked these men to *checks notes* write a fucking essay. Those men and the staff who enabled them were not worried about the future for two years. www.cornellsun.com/article/2026...

The literacy crisis is not just referring to people's ability to literally read and write. It's also people's inability to read for context. I've been a public educator for over 20 years and I have never, ever seen it this bad.

A woman was drugged, raped, and sexually trafficked to members of a fraternity. Two of the men involved were expelled. Five were given the opportunity to mitigate suspension by *writing an essay.* The dozens of other men who knew this was happening and said nothing? You already know the answer.

It's not a new species per se; the discovery is the formal incorporation of an existing species into western taxonomies, backed by genomic data from two cats that provide evolutionary context among several other South American species.

UAE ruler bin Zayed warned Netanyahu that Sinwar was planning an operation against Israel over a week before October 7th www.timesofisrael.com/liveblog_ent...
But this time, the call initiated by bin Zayed was unusual. A week and a half before October 7, 2023 the Emirati ruler called Netanyahu from the Presidential Palace in Abu Dhabi and spoke with him for 45 minutes. In that conversation, bin Zayed warned that Hamas' leader in Gaza, Yahya Sinwar, was planning a major operation against Israel. Bin Zayed expressed concern that the event in question would not only lead to bloodshed but also destabilize the entire region and undermine the Abraham Accords. Three foreign senior sources are familiar with the contents of the conversation, the existence of which is revealed here for the first time. Its disclosure is the result of extensive research based on dozens of sources in Israel and worldwide, including very senior officials, as well as recordings, internal documents and correspondence. The research was conducted for the new book "Hostages: 843 Days of Abandonment" (Kinneret Zmora Publishing, in Hebrew) by the authors of this article.

A lot of people are like "he's just senile!" and leave out that he happens to be a cult leader who can't write a manifesto. He's seeding expansionism, and it will reap the narrative that the populations in those territories need to be removed or assimilated. This is 20th century eugenics.
