Speaking at a campaign event in #Wisconsin on Wed, #Trump derided the #protesters as “raging lunatics & Hamas sympathizers," & called on #Biden to “speak out” — accusing him of being “definitely against #Israel.”
Trump also took aim at #Columbia’s president, Minouche Shafik….
“The person that heads it up — a woman — she waited so long. She was so weak. She was so afraid. She was so bad.”

They're claiming the thick chains protestors at #Columbia used when occupying a building are proof that the protesters weren't real students.
In fact, not only are those chains widely used by students all over the city... Columbia itself sells them to students.
Don't fall for the NYPD's attempts to manufacture consent for violently attacking peaceful protesters.

Why Does the NYPD Hate This Bike Chain
Columbia University allowed police to storm campus Tuesday night, and Wednesday morning, the NYPD Deputy Commissioner accused student protestors of using an "industrial" chain to barricade doors.Samantha Cole (404 Media)
One instance of police violence captured at Hind's Hall was a cop in tan pants throwing a person down a flight of stairs.
This incident was caught from several angels and feels like the sort of thing there will likely be law suits over.

Quick refresher, the student's named their liberated building after Hind. A young Palestinian girl whose finally moments were caught on an EMS call.
In the call Hind can be heard discribing how here family had just been murdered by an IDF tank crew. Her final words are snuffed out but the sounds of IDF machine gun fire.
Hind's body was eventually recovered from her family's car as well as those of her parents and the EMS crew dispatched to rescue Hind.

During the night time raids on campuses. Groups of cops were seen agitating crowds who'd gathered to support the students encampment. The cops randomly charged into them, tackling people and then arresting them.

At columbia, protesters outside of the campus linked arms to block the gates. The NYPD arrested them one at a time with over whelming force.

Cops were seen entering the building with guns drawn. They raided the building room by room with pistols drawn and at times carrying basaltic shields.
... Naturually I've still not seen any reports about any weapons charges etc. Feel like that would be a huge deal if the cops had actually found anything material to justify all this.... anyways.

I'm not the only one who thinks the cops were over board. Here's a cop himself telling a loved one about his day . . .
His previous text reads:
"I thought we fucking shot someone"

Given how amped up they were to be using the batman-esque entrance I can see why the cop above thought they might have killed somebody.
And again, have we EVER seen this level of force used on fascist protests?

The NYPD severely beat and brutalized people as they arrested them last night.
Multiple students arrested had to be taken directly to the hospital.
This was a cop riot.
The cops worked to remove as many press people from the encampment prior to the sweep as possible.

There's a TON of footage of brutal take downs, cops dog piling people who are already down, and of course dragging them while beating the crap out of them to make it look like their reaction to being dragged is them "resisting".
But, first I think you should see this meme!

#nypd continues to occupy the #columbia neighborhood in #nyc
Hard to capture the number of #nypd and cop cars of every size on every block from my bike.
And the #press covering how the protestors prevent folks from getting around … is itself occupying the public #bikenyc #citibike station actually interfering w peoples ability to get around.
It feels like it’s an occupied zone.
I am feeling shame and sadness this morning.

"They’re pretty much the same as we were. The basic impetus of the students, I think it’s not that complicated. It’s that they see a moral tragedy and moral crime going on, and they want to try to do something to stop it,” Rudd told the Daily Beast.
“They don't have the violent rhetoric we had, like calling the cops pigs and ‘Up against the wall, motherfucker,’ that kind of craziness. I think they’re a lot more careful. I think they’re smarter."

Columbia University president says negotiations with pro-Palestinian protesters have stalled, school will not divest from Israel.
NBC News reports: "Columbia was the first elite institution [in the U.S.] struck by protests in support of the Palestinian cause, with students demanding that the school divest from investments in weapons manufacturing and that support Israel amid the backdrop of the Israel-Hamas war, in which more than 34,000 people have been killed in the Gaza Strip. Protests spread quickly last week on campuses from coast to coast, resulting in mass arrests and crackdowns."

Le mouvement anti guerre d'une ampleur inédite a pris forme aux USA.
D'innombrables universités sont entrées en protestation contre la guerre à Gaza.
Le gouvernement américain commence à s'inquiéter de la force de ce mouvement, et tout comme ailleurs, il ne connait qu'une seule réponse, la violence d'État.
La jeunesse ne veut pas de leurs guerres, et ne veut plus pleurer les morts qu'elles causent.
This is not Iran or China. It's Austin, Texas:

New York City police have arrested more than 100 people protesting Israel’s war in Gaza on the campus of Columbia University. A student group called Columbia University Apartheid Divest set up an encampment on Wednesday to protest the school’s “continued financial investment in corporations that profit from Israeli apartheid.” University President Minouche Shafik warned demonstrators that they were not allowed to set up tents and occupy the grounds before police started forcibly removing them. USA Today has more on the ongoing protest.
