Harvard Will Lose at SCOTUS, Dershowitz Says
Posted By: Imright, 4/23/2025 6:01:57 PM
Harvard's lawsuit against the Trump administration is a possible ploy meant to bring the administration to the bargaining table, Harvard Law School professor emeritus Alan Dershowitz said Monday. He added that Harvard would lose if the case makes it to the Supreme Court. Harvard sued the administration on Monday to try to stop a federal freeze on grants worth over $2.2 billion. Harvard filed suit on Monday to halt a federal freeze on more than $2.2 billion in grants.

A wild scene unfolded on Thursday after the top Democrat in the Florida Senate, Jason Pizzo, announced he was leaving the Democratic Party in a fiery floor speech. Telling his now-former colleagues that "our constituents are craving practical leaders, not political hacks," Pizzo said he had "FedExed" his voter registration form, changing it to "no party affiliation."Here's a bit of what he had to say. (Video) PIZZO: There'll be a caucus meeting where I hope that the members of the Democratic Caucus will elect a new leader. For today, I FedExed my voter registration form to change my party affiliation to no affiliation. J
Former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg had an awkward slip of the tongue. It was that or he tried to be fast and loose with Andrew Schulz and company when discussing his family, claiming that adopting black kids comes at a discount. He quickly clarified before saying there was no deposit. The former mayor and 2020 presidential candidate, along with his husband, have adopted fraternal twins, which is how this topic came up, along with a lecture about race in America.
If cleanliness is next to godliness, then New York City is basically heaven on Earth — kinda.
Despite its vermin, the trash-lined streets and only-in-New York smells, the Big Apple did not rank as one of the Top 10 Dirtiest Cities in America.
It’s a miracle on 34th Street — and it’s not even Christmas. (Photo) “From clean drinking water to sewage disposal, littered streets to missed garbage pick-ups, we analyzed 12.3 million sanitation-related 311 complaints in a series of US cities to reveal which metropolises need to clean up their act,” wrote study authors from HouseFresh, a publication focused on indoor air quality.
The Trump Administration pulled off an incredibly creative move to humiliate an activist judge trying to stop them from deporting dangerous illegal aliens.
As Axios reported, Team Trump revealed on Wednesday how they managed to avoid violating a federal judge’s restraining order barring them from deporting certain illegals.
U.S. District Court Judge Brian E. Murphy, a Biden appointee, ordered the Trump administration to ensure that people with final removal orders have a chance to argue that deportation to a country other than their own could jeopardize their safety.
Ty Clevenger has fired off a blistering letter to Attorney General Pam Bondi and FBI Director Kash Patel, accusing the FBI of flagrantly concealing critical records about the late DNC staffer Seth Rich and the now-discredited Russia collusion narrative.
In February 2024, Clevenger demanded that the FBI hand over the Seth Rich documents they continue to conceal from the public.
The FBI’s refusal follows a pattern of obfuscation. For years, the agency denied even possessing Seth Rich’s laptop—until Clevenger’s legal efforts forced the FBI to admit they had it all along. Yet, the agency still refuses to disclose any metadata from Seth Rich’s electronic devices.
President Donald Trump on Thursday announced that he would be meeting with The Atlantic’s Jeffrey Goldberg and other journalists for an interview later in the day.The interview comes after Goldberg published a report in late March explaining how he was accidentally added to a Signal group chat in which top administration officials, including Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, Vice President JD Vance, and others, discussed plans to bomb Houthi rebels in Yemen.
“Later today I will be meeting with, of all people, Jeffrey Goldberg, the Editor of The Atlantic, and the person responsible for many fictional stories about me,
President Trump blasted Vladimir Putin on Thursday and urged the Russian president to “STOP!” after Moscow launched its deadliest attack on Ukraine in almost a year overnight.
“I am not happy with the Russian strikes on KYIV,” Trump raged in a Truth Social post.
“Not necessary, and very bad timing. Vladimir, STOP! 5000 soldiers a week are dying. Lets get the Peace Deal DONE!” (Photos) His rare criticism of Putin came soon after Russia struck Kyiv with an hours-long barrage of missiles and drones — killing at least nine and wounding more than 70.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky branded the attack, which is the deadliest there since last July,

Cornell University has opted to drop controversial anti-Israel performer Kehlani from its Slope Day after the University President Michael Kotlikoff said the initial decision “injected division and discord.”
The university came under fire for inviting Kehlani, described as a “vile Jew-hater,” to perform on its Ivy League campus. As Breitbart News reported, “Kehlani has a music video that begins with, ‘Long live the Intifada,’ an Arabic word that translates to ‘shaking off’ and in the Palestinian context, is understood to mean a civil uprising.”

Holt asked, “Is this really about antisemitism?”
Garber responded, “I would say that, at Harvard, we have a real problem with antisemitism. We take it very seriously, and we’re trying to address it. There’s no doubt about the severity of that problem. We don’t really see the relationship to research funding at Harvard and other universities. They are two different issues.”
Garber also stated that “What they are indicating is that they want to directly review who we hire on our faculty. That has implications for what kinds of views can be expressed on campus. They also want to be able to tell us who we need to fire.
DNC Races to Rein in David Hogg
8 replies
It’s a safe bet that the Democratic National Committee is not so pleased with Vice Chair David Hogg promising to hurl “asleep-at-the-wheel Democrats” into Thunderdome come 2026. Mr. Hogg appeared on the Sunday Talk Show circuit, where he promised to declare war within his party against those he feels are essentially not with the program, whatever that is. It’s all kinds of crazy at the DNC, but for now, the leadership is trying to rein in this chaotic element by expanding the committee’s non-endorsement policy (via NOTUS):

In a rare moment of unity and cultural celebration, nearly 11,500 children and educators poured into the Kennedy Center over three days to experience the power of classical music through the National Symphony Orchestra’s “Young People's Concerts.” While Washington is often consumed with dysfunction and political theater, this event reminded us that exposing young minds to the arts, primarily through affordable, accessible performances, can still uplift and inspire. At just $7 a ticket, the program shows that fostering a love of music and tradition doesn’t require bloated federal programs or ideological agendas—just a commitment to excellence and a respect for the next generation.

Her name is Natalie Winters. She’s a White House correspondent for Steve Bannon’s War Room, and she’s ruffled feathers of the establishment press who can’t get their heads around why they’re mocked, hated, and distrusted. Winters has been criticized for her attire in the White House Press Room in a media narrative that resembles Mean Girls. It doesn’t matter. Like most supporters of President Trump, she can take the hits and dish them out, like when CNN’s Donie O'Sullivan tried to press her on her media credentials.

The O’Keefe Media Group on Wednesday released undercover video of a Defense Department Branch Chief attacking President Trump and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth.
Nicolas Turza, a Department of Defense Branch Chief, called President Trump “illegitimate” and vowed to “resist him, everything he does.”
Turza also attacked Hegseth and said the 44-year-old is “insanely young” and unfit to lead.
“The same guy who tried to overthrow an election is just, like, truly setting us down a path of dictatorship.

Michelle Obama is finally revealing why she missed President Trump’s inauguration in January.
The former first lady broke down the “hard” decision on the latest episode of her and brother Craig Robinson’s “IMO” podcast.
She called her headline-making choice the “right” one despite public “ridicule” while chatting with Taraji P. Henson.
The 61-year-old explained that she “basically tricked” herself into not attending the ceremony by making sure she did not “have anything to wear.” Obama recalled, “I was like, if I’m not going to do this thing, I’ve got to tell my team. I don’t even want to have a dress ready, right?”
A former senior adviser to Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth who lost his job last week amid an investigation into press leaks from the Pentagon — pointed the finger in a different direction during an interview with former Fox News host Tucker Carlson.
Dan Caldwell, who has been placed on “administrative leave,” told Carlson in the interview released Monday that the Pentagon is rife with opponents of President Donald Trump and his administration’s goals. Those are where the leaks are coming from, he said.
But there’s a “less obvious place” that’s a possibility, he suggested. And he named one name that shocked viewers
Joy Behar said she fears that Pope Francis will be replaced by “some conservative guy” on Tuesday’s episode of ABC’s The View, during which the show’s co-hosts used the pope’s death as an opportunity to complain about U.S. politics.
After The View co-host Sunny Hostin said she hopes the late pope will be replaced by someone similar to him, Joy Behar replied, “I wonder, though, because there might be a backlash against how good he was, and how much humility he had compared to some of the leaders in this world right now.”
When now-Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson stated in her confirmation hearing that she couldn't define what a "woman" is, that probably should have been treated as a bit of a red flag. That would have required the Senate to have any sense of shame, though, and we all know that's long been in short supply. Since joining the Supreme Court, Jackson has become perhaps the most reliable left-wing vote on the court. There is no level of partisanship she won't stoop to in order to defend a Democrat viewpoint, and that was on display again in recent oral arguments surrounding parental rights.
Texas Democrat Representative Jasmine Crockett stated during an interview with late-night host Jimmy Kimmel that she would “absolutely” take on a head-to-head IQ test against President Donald Trump.
On Tuesday, Crockett (D-Texas) told Kimmel in an airing of “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” that she would go toe-to-toe with the 47th president in order to prove that she has a high IQ.
“He also called you low IQ, I’m sure you’re aware of that. Would you be willing to take an IQ test publicly head-to-head against the President of the United States?” Kimmel asked Crockett.
“Absolutely!” Crockett responded.
Sen. Dick Durbin (D-Ill.) announced Wednesday that he will not seek re-election in 2026, saying he would “pass the torch” to up-and-coming leaders in his party.
The no. 2 Democrat in the Senate posted a video message on X explaining his decision to step down after having served five terms — “longer than anyone elected to the Senate” in Illinois’ history.
“The decision of whether to run for re-election has not been easy. I truly love the job of being a United States senator,” Durbin said. “But in my heart, I know it’s time to pass the torch.”
Conservative Christians have flooded social media with support for Cardinal Robert Sarah to succeed the late Pope Francis because of his strong traditionalist stands on sexuality and church doctrine as well as his opposition to mass immigration and Islamism.
Why It Matters
The rising profile of the African cardinal, 79, comes at a time of ideological division within Catholicism, as the Church grapples with questions of modernity, sexual identity, and religious pluralism, and also as more right wing political movements in Europe and elsewhere have challenged what they see as the orthodoxy of a liberal global elite.
Unlike Pope Francis—who often leaned into progressive stances on social justice and inclusion—
Jack Schlossberg—grandson of former President John F. Kennedy—lashed out on social media Monday morning, accusing Vice President J.D. Vance of “killing the pope” just hours after the Vatican announced the death of Pope Francis.
The accusation comes after Pope Francis’s passing, ending his 12-year tenure as head of the Roman Catholic Church.
Vance, a Catholic convert since 2019, had a brief private meeting with the pontiff at Casa Santa Marta on Easter Sunday.
The meeting lasted about 15–17 minutes, during which they exchanged Easter greetings.
A group of Democratic congressional reps traveled to Louisiana to visit Mahmoud Khalil and Rümeysa Öztürk in a pair of federal detention centers on Tuesday as both face potential removal from the United States.
Five lawmakers — including Rep. Troy Carter, of Louisiana; Rep. Bennie Thompson, of Mississippi; and Reps. Ayanna Pressley, Jim McGovern and Sen. Ed Markey, all of Massachusetts — stopped by a federal Immigration of Customs Enforcement facility in Jena to see Khalil and then traveled to Basile, where Öztürk is detained, CNN reported.
The circle of top advisers in Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s orbit has shrunk in recent days to little more than his wife, lawyer, and two lower-level officials — leaving the Pentagon’s lead office without longtime expertise or clear direction.
Hegseth’s decision to fire three senior aides last week and reassign his chief of staff has blown a hole in his leadership team, severing essential lines of communication across the department and leading to fears about dangerous slip-ups such as weapons program delays.
The wholesale turnover just 100 days into Hegseth’s tenure has been remarkable for its speed. And it has left the first-time government official without trusted staff who understand Washington
Former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg recently opened up about the adoption process he and his husband went through on their journey to adopt their two children, explaining he was shocked to learn of the racial disparities in the process.
“By the way, anybody who says race is not a thing in this country should experience an adoption process where there are literally different lists,” Buttigieg said during an appearance on the “Flagrant” podcast released Wednesday. “If you say that you want a white kid only versus if you say that doesn’t matter. Like, literally a different list.”
