Reporter grills Columbia student after she demands the university help feed protestors occupying Hamilton Hall:

”It seems like you're saying, 'we want to be revolutionaries, we want to take over this building, now would you please bring us some food'."

TRUMP COMMENTS ON NYC UNIVERSITY PROTESTS - THANKS NYPD

"I think the New York's finest, New York City's finest, have been incredible. The way they've been, it's not over yet.

But the way they walked in and the way they climbed through that window, they were not. They were not afraid of anything.

And it looks like they've got it maybe clamped down, but it should never have gotten to this.

And they should have done it a lot sooner than before they took over the building, because it would have been a lot easier if they were intense, rather than a building. And tremendous damage done, too.

When you look at that building, that's a landmark, and it's really been damaged badly by these people."

Top left video well worth watching--

several students flung themselves down and ROLLED down the stairs, then started screaming, so that other students ran up to them to help the poor student "wounded from police brutality".

Another student screamed in pain and then lay down on the ground as if unconscious, but then when he realized nobody was noticing him he suddenly got up again and starting jumping around -- proving himself most agile for someone so recently "unconscious". It was funny, really---I couldn't wait to see a police officer take him down for REAL....

The rot's been "progressing" for a long time. This is just making it more visible. Pond scum, with the intelligence of an amoeba.

NYPD release video showing professional 'protest consultant' at Columbia University​


The New York City Police Department released a video showing a professional "protest consultant" who was seen on other social media videos instructing a mob of anti-Israel agitators as they took over Hamilton Hall at Columbia University overnight Monday.

New York City Mayor Eric Adams spoke about outside agitators during a press conference Tuesday evening.

"What should have been a peaceful protest, it has basically been co-opted by professional outside agitators. We were extremely cautious about releasing our intel information because our goal was to ensure the safety of the students, the faculty, and without destruction to property," Adams said. "We have sounded the alarm several times before about external actors who attempted to hijack this private protest."

Adams and members of his administration shared information about the outside actors who were creating "serious public safety issues" at the protests.

"These external actors are obviously not students, and their presence on campus is a violation of Columbia’s clearly stated policy," Adams said. "This group…is an outside agitator with a history of escalating a situation and trying to create chaos. It is our belief they are now actively co-opting what should be a peaceful gathering. This is to serve their own agenda. They are not here to promote peace or unity or allow a peaceful display of one's voice. They are here to create discord and divisiveness."

The mayor urged anyone involved to walk away "now."

During the press conference, police said some of the outside agitators have been known to the NYPD for years, adding that they have seen an escalation in tactics police believe are the result of guidance from outside agitators.

For example, police are seeing barricades being made out of furniture, cameras being destroyed, de-arresting tactics, property destruction, and signs being used to fortify and create shields.


Police said even though the tactics really became exposed last night at Columbia University, they expect it will continue across universities in New York City and across the country.

In a video shown during the press event, 63-year-old Lisa Fithian is seen watching a group of protesters chant anti-Israel slogans.

"We’re trying to document them being a- -holes," Lisa Fithian said to the camera person. "You’re right. They are being a - -holes."

ANTI-ISRAEL MOB AT COLUMBIA REVEALS EXACTLY WHAT THEY WILL TARGET NEXT AFTER TAKING OVER ACADEMIC BUILDING

Fithian is a professional "protest consultant" who has been arrested over 80 times, Laura Ingraham of "The Ingraham Angle" said on her show Tuesday night.

Fithian has reportedly participated in protests on climate change, Occupy Wall Street, and now, the Free Palestine movement.

After midnight Tuesday, Fithian was seen on video instructing a mob of anti-Israel agitators as they took over an academic building at Columbia University.


In one video clip, protesters were seen carrying a table, while in the background, Fithian could be heard saying, "I can’t help with that. You guys can help with that."

In another clip, the mob was seen attaching a piece of furniture to the door of a building, while Fithian tells people with cameras to move back.

During "The Ingraham Angle" on Tuesday evening, Ingraham spoke with Ira Stoll, the founder and editor of theeditors.com, about Fithian and what she gets out of helping to train the new generation of activists.

"Some of the people involved are being paid money," Stoll said, explaining he authored an article for The Wall Street Journal recently about how these groups are advertising for fellows to be paid $3,000 to work eight hours a week for three months, on campuses across the U.S. "Some of the people who have been quite prominently in these protests have been paid fellows with hundreds of thousands of dollars from the Soros Open Society Foundation and the Rockefeller Brothers Fund.

"So, there’s big money behind these protests," Stoll added.

He also spoke about how many of the people at the anti-Israel protests taking place at campuses like Columbia University are the same people who attend Black Lives Matter protests, as well as anti-Trump protests.

"It’s the same people out protesting. I’ve seen them," Stoll said. "They just like to protest."
He compared it to people who go out on weekends to play sports or go to religious services.

"This is an activity for these people, and until the revolution is accomplished, they’re not going to stop, or else until they are in jail," he said.

Wristbands are being used to identify anti-Israel students at @UCLA so that they are allowed to enter Royce Quad, Royce Hall, and Powell Library.

Some students are allowed in and out, others are kept out. This is ILLEGAL and UCLA is not just tolerating it but facilitating it.

Two of my siblings graduated from UCLA, and one of my relatives was a professor at the medical school there, back in the day. All of us descended from Jewish legal immigrants from eastern Europe. That was a long time ago...

LEGAL immigrants -- and their children became engineers and physicians. Two of my relatives were surgeons in the United States armed forces during World War II. Others worked as engineers for the armed forces.

Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office Assists USF Police With Pro-Palestine Protest​


The Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office assisted with an unsanctioned protest at the University of South Florida Tuesday.

“After repeatedly ignoring dispersal commands, HCSO was able to identify several agitators and assist with USF police with taking them into custody.” said HCSO in an email statement.

“Violent or unsanctioned protests on University Campuses or anywhere in Hillsborough County, Florida, will not be tolerated,” said Sheriff Chad Chronister. “This is Florida, a law and order state. Every student, regardless of color, creed or religion, should be able to feel safe and learn in a secure environment. Every student should be able to freely move about campus without fear of harassment or intimidation. The moment a peaceful protestor arms his or herself with a shield or attempts to occupy a space that isn’t theirs, as occurred today, they will be dispersed. And, if they choose not to follow instructions of law enforcement officers, they will be arrested as ten individuals were.”

Florida Gov. DeSantis, addressing previous protests during a news conference in Naples on Tuesday, affirmed his support for the students’ First Amendment rights.

He emphasized that individuals are free to gather and express their opinions irrespective of their stance on the issue. However, he made it clear that he does not condone disruptive actions that infringe on the rights of others.

“The University of Florida, Florida State, our universities have been very strong in saying, ‘You can say what you want, but you don’t have the right to commandeer territory, you don’t have the right to harass students or faculty or any of that. And if you do violate (the) code of conduct, we’re going to show you the door. You will be expelled,’” DeSantis said.

The arrests at USF occurred after protesters attempted to set up an encampment on the Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Plaza lawn, contrary to university directives. University officials had explicitly stated that tents could not be set up on campus, and violating this directive could result in disciplinary actions against individuals or student organizations involved.

UF officials were quick to respond to the protests, issuing warnings about prohibited activities during demonstrations.

The university made it clear that it would not tolerate any form of violence, threats, or disruptions. Students and employees found violating these rules faced severe consequences, including suspension and termination.

“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,” university spokesman Steve Orlando said in the statement.

According to the statement, “many” protesters on campus were “outside agitators,” and that university police had reminded demonstrators of the restrictions.

According to the university, demonstrators who engage in “clearly prohibited activities” will be issued trespassing orders by police, barring them from university premises for three years, as well as “interim” suspensions from UF.

A document released last week and extensively shared on social media outlined permitted protest activities as well as prohibited measures. Speech, “expressing viewpoints,” and “holding signs in hands” were all mentioned as acceptable activities.

The use of amplified sound, demonstrations within buildings, camping, building construction, interruptions, threats, and violence were all prohibited actions.

Despite the warnings, nine individuals were arrested by the University Police Department (UPD) and the Florida Highway Patrol. Charges ranged from failure to obey a lawful command to trespass after warning. One protester even faced charges of battery after spitting on an officer.

BREAKING: Using a drone I was able to get EXCLUSIVE UCLA Pro Palestine encampment footage. They are TRAINING protestors in hand to hand combat as LAPD expected to tear down the encampment as soon as tonight, and potential fights with police expected.

The school has deemed the encampment “unlawful” and have threatened students with suspension or even expulsion if they refuse to leave, per school staff source.
