The University of Florida was recently informed by the Florida Federation of College Republicans (FFCR) that it has disbanded the local chapter of College Republicans (the Local CR).  This request is based on the FFCR’s findings that some Local CR members engaged in a pattern of conduct that violated its rules and values, including a recent antisemitic gesture. The FFCR also requested that the university deactivate the Local CR as a registered student organization while it looks to reorganize and pursue reinstatement under new student leadership.

The University of Florida has emphatically supported its Jewish community and remains committed to preventing and addressing antisemitism and other forms of discrimination and harassment that are threatening and disruptive to our students and to the teaching, research and expressive activities of the campus community. The university also supports the rights of organizations, such as the FFCR, to take decisive action in addressing conduct that is antithetical to its principles.

In compliance with its policies, the University of Florida is in the process of deactivating the Local CR as a registered student organization.  When the FFCR is ready, the university will also assist it with reactivating the Local CR under new student leadership.

INBOX: The Florida Federation of College Republicans has disbanded and requested the deactivation of the University of Florida chapter of College Republicans, after "members engaged in a pattern of conduct that violated its rules and value, including a recent antisemitic gesture."

Wait it's set in the desert, it's about the struggle between two great houses mediated by a baroque aristocracy, and the entire time the bosses are saying "the money must flow" is Casino Martin Scorsese's adaptation of Dune?

Paying taxes is a part of living in a society. The problem is not that working people pay taxes. The problem is that working people disproportionately pay MORE TAXES than the wealthiest Americans. The U.S. has the lowest tax rate for our wealthiest citizens of all "developed" nations

β€œFund the police” was Biden’s *applause* line in his first joint address to Congress. It was written to echo LBJ saying β€œwe shall overcome” in his joint address as a lifeline to a movement under attack. I really don’t bring it up enough.

Iran soccer team pushes back on Trump comments, says 'no one can exclude' it from the World Cup Pushing back on U.S. President Donald Trump’s comments, Iran’s national soccer team says β€œno one can exclude” it from playing in the men’s World Cup in the United States.

The Iranian soccer team, whose stadium has been destroyed, says that they still plan on coming for the World Cup and Trump has no legal standing to say otherwise. But watch for FIFA to find a legal standing because FIFA chief Johnny Infantino is Trump's spittoon. apnews.com/article/worl...

If the government really is worried about Iranian sleeper cells, then it was probably a mistake to systematically reorient the majority of US counterterror resources toward arresting immigrant grandmothers and five-year-olds in bunny hats

After a series of fatal strikes involving civilians in Iraq and Afghanistan, Congress directed the Pentagon to reduce civilian casualties as part of a 2019 law. During the Biden administration, the Defense Department created the Civilian Harm Mitigation and Response initiative.

The civilian mitigation teams – cut by 90% by Hegseth – work with military commanders on target planning, and making sure that targets are actually military sites. The teams help come up with "no strike" lists, including religious and cultural sites and schools

I knew that the Department of War shot a missile into a school & killed 175 civilians, mostly children.

This is learned today:

Secretary of War Hegseth had cut the teams assigned to prevent such tragedies by 90%.

I can't even find the words to express how repugnant and despicable this post is.

People who spew such Islamophobic bile don't belong in the United States Congress. The job of elected officials is to combat hate, not fan its flames. (1/2)
