HARVARD SUBWAY Shooting Panic: Shelter-in-Place Order Shakes Campus

20 April 2025 — A shooting on a Boston subway platform near Harvard University sent shockwaves through the campus Sunday. Harvard officials quickly told students and staff to shelter in place as police searched for the gunman.

Transit police say a man fired four or five shots at someone he targeted on the southbound platform at Harvard Square station, then ran away. Thankfully, no one was hurt, according to transit police superintendent Richard Sullivan.

The chaos forced subway riders onto shuttle buses while officers from several departments searched the area around the busy station. The location is right next to Harvard’s main campus in Cambridge.

Police lifted the shelter-in-place order later that afternoon after deciding there was no longer a threat to students or staff. The suspect remains at large as investigators continue their search.

TRUMP’S Trade WAR: A Global Financial Nightmare?

09 April 2025 — The Bank of England warns of a looming global financial crisis due to Donald Trump’s trade war. The Financial Policy Committee (FPC) pointed out risks from new global tariffs introduced on April 9. These tariffs have increased uncertainty in world markets, possibly leading to debt spirals for governments.

The UK, with its open economy and large financial sector, is especially vulnerable to shocks from international trade conflicts. Rachel Reeves, the Chancellor, confirmed ongoing talks with the Bank’s Governor to watch market developments amid these tensions.

Trump’s threats of more tariffs on China could escalate the conflict and harm international cooperation. Such actions may worsen financial conditions worldwide, according to the FPC’s warning note.

Despite these worries, analysts believe that the well-capitalized UK banking system might offer some protection against economic turmoil. However, watching trade war developments remains crucial as they could greatly impact both local and global markets.

He stressed the Panama Canal’s strategic importance for U.S. trade and voiced concerns over Chinese control of key ports there. Criticizing past decisions that let China gain influence in this vital region, he called for pro-American partnerships in Latin America.

Rubio praised President Trump’s efforts to counter China’s global influence through projects like the India-Middle East-Europe Economic Corridor (IMEC).

A congressman quickly pointed fingers, suggesting this could be a diversion from more pressing matters.

Concerns have been raised over Trump’s delay in appointing an acting FAA administrator after the previous one resigned due to conflicts with Elon Musk. Additionally, Trump fired leaders of the TSA and Coast Guard without naming immediate replacements, sparking worries about aviation security. The Aviation Security Advisory Committee also saw members dismissed despite its long-standing role since the 1980s.

Her resignation follows heavy scrutiny over her handling of protests and campus divisions related to the Israel-Hamas war. The Ivy League school faced intense student demonstrations, leading to police intervention and clashes.

The announcement comes days after three Columbia University Deans resigned for exchanging disparaging texts about Jewish life and antisemitism. Shafik was criticized by Republicans in Congress for not adequately addressing antisemitism concerns on campus. She began her role in July last year but announced her resignation just weeks before the new semester starts on Sept. 3.

In an emailed letter, Shafik mentioned progress in important areas but admitted it was difficult to overcome divergent views within the community. She cited the toll on her family as a reason for stepping down, believing it would help Columbia navigate future challenges better. The university has started restricting campus access to curb potential disruptions as classes resume soon.

Kestenbaum criticized Harvard for not condemning Hamas’s atrocities, including the murder of 45 American citizens and taking 12 hostages on October 7. Once a Bernie Sanders supporter, he now believes the far-left has abandoned both Jewish and American people.

He declared that the Democratic Party is ideologically poisoned and that this poison has spread to America’s youth. Kestenbaum expressed his support for President Trump’s policies to expel foreign students who violate laws and harass Jewish classmates, receiving cheers from the audience.

MIT ISSUES Ultimatum: Pro-Palestinian Students Face Suspension

Students who comply with the evacuation order by the deadline will avoid sanctions from MIT’s Committee on Discipline, provided they are not under current investigation or have held leadership roles in the encampment. This serves as a final warning to those involved in violating campus policies.

The situation underscores ongoing tensions on college campuses regarding Middle East politics and raises questions about finding a balance between free speech and institutional rules.

The events have led to heightened tensions and several arrests.

At Columbia University, an encampment was established to show support for Palestine, resulting in multiple arrests including Isra Hirsi, daughter of Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN). Despite facing legal challenges, the encampment expanded as protesters added more tents throughout the weekend. This surge in activity prompted Bates’ statement amid growing concerns over campus safety and decorum.

Bates reiterated the importance of upholding free speech while ensuring that protests remain peaceful and respectful. He underscored that any form of hatred or intimidation has no place in educational environments or anywhere else in America.

UPenn President’s CAREER on the BRINK: Antisemitism Controversy Ignites Firestorm of Criticism

10 December 2023 — University of Pennsylvania’s President, Liz Magill, finds her position teetering on the edge after a surge of criticism regarding her handling of antisemitism. Her job stability is now in doubt following an ill-received congressional testimony. University donors, bipartisan lawmakers, alumni, and Jewish groups have voiced their displeasure.

EXPOSED: BIDEN and Elites’ Unsettling Alliance with China

22 November 2023 — President Joe Biden’s recent actions have stirred up a storm of controversy. His apparent dismissal of the idea of “decoupling” from China is causing concern among conservatives. These revelations come from a new book, Controligarchs: Exposing the Billionaire Class, Their Secret Deals, and the Globalist Plot to Dominate Your Life.

The book suggests that global elites and politicians like Biden and California Governor Gavin Newsom are actively pushing for a closer resemblance between the U.S. and its Communist adversary. It alleges that these individuals view Beijing’s elites not as threats or rivals but as business partners.

Among those named in these claims are influential figures such as BlackRock’s Larry Fink, Apple’s Tim Cook, and Blackstone’s Stephen Schwarzman. These business leaders were reportedly present at a dinner honoring Chinese Communist Party Leader Xi Jinping where they stood in applause for Chairman Xi.

This revelation comes at a time when concerns over China’s influence on global politics are growing. It highlights the urgent need for transparency in dealings between American leaders and foreign powers.
