Other Stuff

I owe you the Cornell stuff from yesterday, and the Yale and Columbia stuff is new:

First, the spineless leadership at Cornell: Pro-Israel students at Cornell rip university for hosting Israel-hating singer at upcoming concert

Next, fear of Trump made them do the right thing: BREAKING: Kotlikoff Rescinds Kehlani Invite, Citing Antisemitism and ‘Hateful Views’ - The Cornell Daily Sun

Cornell cancels Kehlani's spring concert performance over singer's antisemitic views

Who the heck didn't do just the back research on this terrorist-loving troll before inviting her to perform at a college? Kehlani stands with Palestinians in newest music video

Yeah, I bet they do: Columbia University promises swift crackdown on planned pro-Palestinian encampments

This is what fear of defunding will do: Yale removes status from SJP chapter over ‘antisemitic conduct’ on short-lived encampment

How long will Trump tolerate the steady stream of bad press, or will he just write it off to a bad press?. We knew all along that Hegseth didn’t have the judgment for this job. He proved it with his prior failures at management. He’s proving it again now in a job where the nation cannot have someone with such bad judgment. Trump's style with this sort of thing is to support 100%...and then turn on a dime and fire the person. I expect that here but he likes Hegseth so he'll try to make it seem a little more gentle while kicking him out.

I only know what I read in this article and the article does seem to have a bias against the bill but particularly because of the impacts on energy demand and prices, and based on the long history of failures of these sorts of incentives to bring the claimed benefits at or below the projected costs, I don't see why Republicans are supporting this: As tech giants seek tax breaks, some wonder: What's in it for Coloradans? - The Colorado Sun
