No reasonable law enforcement agency would ever fire a hail of bullets into a car that presents no safety threat … with a five-year-old in the backseat. We need an independent investigation. We need Oscar to be released from custody immediately. And we need ICE to get the hell out of our city.

New: Students suing Columbia for its response to a library demonstration last year. Student Jessie Rubin recalls officers "shouting racist & homophobic epithets while guards put their hands around students’ necks, slammed participants into the ground, & dragged their bodies across the stone floor."
Student protesters sue Columbia University for illegal detention and assault in class-action lawsuit

NEW YORK, NY – Plaintiffs Nisreen Khokhar, Jessie Rubin, and Hayes Buchanan filed a class-action lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York on September 18, 2026, alleging that Columbia University falsely imprisoned and assaulted nearly 100 students and community members during a pro-Palestine teach-in last May. The lawsuit seeks to hold Columbia accountable for its collusion with the Trump Administration and for violating students' constitutional rights, and seeks damages and injunctive relief to prevent Columbia from similarly targeting other campus activists.

The teach-in on May 7, 2025, included speeches, a reading syllabus, and guided discussions on the writings of Basel al-Araj, a Palestinian teacher and intellectual who was assassinated by the Israeli government in 2017. Flyers with five demands distributed at the teach-in extended the April 2024 Gaza Solidarity Encampments’ call for Columbia to divest its holdings in corporations complicit in the US-backed Israeli genocide.

According to the suit, Columbia responded to the teach-in by kettling participants in a reading room and barricading all exits for nearly four hours, all while denying food, water, and urgently-needed medical assistance.

The unlawful and violent confinement ended only after the NYPD's Strategic Response Group entered the room and began arresting participants — most of them students in their own library — on trespassing charges.

Rubin recalled “Public Safety officers shouting racist and homophobic epithets while guards put their hands around students’ necks, slammed participants into the ground, and dragged their bodies across the stone floor.”

The arrests and disciplinary hearings that followed resulted in the largest sweep of suspensions and expulsions in Columbia’s history. Plaintiffs allege that Columbia's actions have severely and permanently impacte…

Ed Sheeran had no problem supporting Ukraine. So what’s different when it comes to Palestine? Maybe it’s that Sheeran capitulated to a pro-Israel, Epstein-connected billionaire.
