As one half of the faculty duo who secured the FIRE green light for NC State University, I’m grateful for the Board of Trustees’ action.

“This is not complicated: The University of Florida is not a daycare, and we do not treat protesters like children — they knew the rules, they broke the rules, and they’ll face the consequences.”

Tell me that Oren doesn’t understand economics without telling that Oren doesn’t understand economics.

Inflation is a weakened immune system. Tariffs are licking a doorknob.

Hamas cheerleaders on campus have the unfettered right to take over buildings, smash windows, trespass, shut down schools, and threaten Jewish students -- but if you point out what they're doing, you're the one being 'dangerous' and 'reckless.'

The elite festishization of campus protest is embarrassing. latimes.com/opinion/story/…

Took my daughter to the Victims of Communism Victims of Communism Museum b/c she chose Russia for her history project. It was hard, we cried. I’m not sure if this was a good or bad parenting decision; she is young. But she knows the truth and learned about what it means to be heroic

Once again, these protests are full of Marxist kooks who fantasize about violent revolutions. Gaza is just a pretext for them.

Socialist professors mostly memory-hole the fact that socialists in the past were often militantly anti-family, as hostile to families as they were to religion.

Students & fellow university faculty: Office workers, janitors, dining hall workers, IT folks, security personnel and other university employees serve us faithfully every day so that we can do our research, teach and learn. To threaten or abuse them for any reason is a scandal.

The one redeeming aspect of this antisemitic campus thuggery is exposing again how the campus speech codes, safe spaces, etc., were purely about power and silencing critics rather than sensitivity.

Good luck enforcing those rules on the rest of the student body ever again.

Upper income households hold more wealth now because more people are now upper income.

I really dislike these random accounts pretending to be authorities on everything.

Solid and wide-ranging Samuel Gregg case for conservatives to continue supporting free markets (and to reject trendy 'new right' interventionism) thepublicdiscourse.com/2024/04/94779/

Re: Trump's 'reciprocal tariffs' idea.

So he is basically endorsing higher foreign tariffs on US exports

The numbers for NY school spending have to be seen to be believed. $30,000 per pupil, almost double the national level. Total $76 billion is much higher than FL and TX despite fewer pupils. NYC is $36,000, while Chicago and LA are about $21,000. @ejmej empirecenter.org/publications/n…
