The Santa Ono Earthquake

Original Article

Last Tuesday Florida’s Board of Governors rejected Dr. Santa Ono for president of its flagship school, the University of Florida (UF). This came just one week after UF’s Board of Trustees (BOT) unanimously approved Ono. In what is typically a procedural process, it marked the first time in the 22 years since the Board of Governors was established that it had rejected a candidate in this fashion. It was a blow for not only Ono, but also UF’s BOT. How did Ono nearly get approved as UF’s next president? The short answer is the almost childish simplicity of UF’s BOT, and especially its chairman, Mori Hosseini. They created a situation

Comments:

The University of Florida almost hired a committed leftist as its president. The school's leftist Board of Trustees should be replaced.

The lesson is at the end.... Ono is out. But there are plenty of Ono clones looking for the job—and next time they will disguise themselves better.

What didn't get mentioned here is that the search firm was paid UP FRONT, 35% of the total compensation package in thirds plus all expenses incurred by them during the search including such items as travel, rooms, and meals for meeting candidates and the search commitee. It's quite a haul and it's money down the drain unless the DEI firm conducts another search gratis (like they should offer) or UF decides to eat the previous expense. They could retain a real search firm like Korn-Ferry or Russell Reynolds. I go with hiring the big boys and the BOG replaced with adults. By the way, that comp package is salary, bonus and free housing and is a rather sizable sum well into seven figures. If a football coach can get a seven or eight million dollar package, so can a president. Do the math on $1,000.000 at a fee of 35% just for starters! Somebody should be fired for this fiasco.

Superb report on a rotten puke who almost got shoved into UF leadership. As a Gator Alum, I am very happy to see that this jerk wasn't hired.

The Knockout Game. Polar Bear Hunting. White Girl Bleed a Lot. Flash Mobbing. There is an entire urban lexicon that describes a nationwide subculture that celebrates anti-white violence, even if progressives dismiss it all as a phony moral panic. The principal architects of The Great Hate (blue media, academia, Hollywood, government-aligned NGOs) are armchair assassins using the joystick of propaganda to incite the suggestible and the psychotic to anarchy. Both the advocates and practitioners of violence all vote the same way, for the political party (D) that shares their values.

Let’s talk about a day that California Governor Gavin Newsom would probably like to erase from memory. Tuesday was an absolute trainwreck for the Golden State’s fearless leader, marked by technical blunders, shameless begging, and a string of outright lies that would make even the most seasoned politician blush. If you thought Newsom’s leadership couldn’t sink any lower, buckle up, because this was a masterclass in humiliation. Riots are tearing through the city over federal immigration enforcement, yet Newsom can’t even bring himself to condemn the violence. Instead, he’s pointing fingers at President Trump while dodging

In the Louvre, there’s a famous painting by the French Artist Jacques-Louis David depicting the Intervention of the Sabine Women. In it, the Sabine men, whose daughters were stolen by and then married to Romans in the mid-8th century BC, returned to avenge Roman treachery and retrieve their offspring. The scene depicts a woman standing between the belligerents, imploring them to cease fighting: If you are weary of these ties of kindred, these marriage-bonds, then turn your anger upon us; it is we who are the cause of the war, it is we who have wounded and slain our husbands and fathers.

ABC News said Tuesday it is cutting ties with star national correspondent Terry Moran over a social media post in which he called President Donald Trump and senior White House advisor Stephen Miller “world-class” haters. Moran, 65, had already been suspended over the quickly deleted post on X over the weekend after drawing fire from Trump administration officials. He had spent 28 years at the network and had conducted a one-on-one interview with Trump in late April. “We are at the end of our agreement with Terry Moran and based on his recent post — which was a clear violation of ABC News policies

I once stood on the haunted soil of Hitler’s first concentration camp: Dachau. Picture a dozen or so rowdy 15-year-old high school boys on a four-week tour of Germany and Austria. With only our German teacher, Albert "Doc" Kalmar, to supervise, we did everything you’d expect from teenagers. We gawked at the Glockenspiel, ordered beers at lunch, and tried out our awkward language skills on the local girls. Then picture us stunned into silence by a place where the evil still lingered like a physical presence, almost 40 years after the war. I don't have any more words to describe it —

Sly Stone, the pioneering leader of the funk band bearing his name, Sly and the Family Stone, has died, according to his family. Stone was 82 years old. "After a prolonged battle with COPD and other underlying health issues, Sly passed away peacefully, surrounded by his three children, his closest friend, and his extended family," his family said in a statement. "While we mourn his absence, we take solace in knowing that his extraordinary musical legacy will continue to resonate and inspire for generations to come." Stone, whose real name was Sylvester Stewart, formed a band with his brother Freddie and sisters Loretta and Rose at an early age.

How did the Democrat union bag man know that FBI and DHS officers were enforcing a criminal search warrant at an L.A. clothing manufacturer on Friday? It seems that the union, CHIRLA, and the Los Angeles Rapid Response Network’s [LARRN] snitch line reporting "men in military garb" paid off. At least that's what it looks like from the charging documents against SEIU executive and Democrat money man David Huerta. The SEIU boss was arrested on Friday and spent the weekend in jail awaiting his arraignment Monday afternoon at the federal courthouse. On Monday, Huerta was charged with criminal conspiracy for impeding a federal officer—multiple times—

One of the major spokes in our current culture’s rationale for the acceptance of the gay lifestyle is the pithy statement that “Love is love.” On the surface, who can argue with that? It’s as obvious as the statement “It is what it is.” From a logic standpoint, it’s the same entity on both sides of an equals sign. However, the Love Rationale (“Love is love”) means that, if someone loves another, then that’s love, and that’s all there is to it. You can’t help who you love. So, it must be okay. That’s where they are wrong. My primary objection is that the “love” spoken of in

We often hear, in the Democrat media, about negligent discharges (NDs) of firearms. They usually suggest firearms are far too dangerous for Normal Americans and must be banned for public safety. See how they’re shooting themselves and others?! After all, if it saves one life, don’t we have to ban them?! Isn’t that a moral imperative?! If we adopted that standard, we’d have no power tools, no kitchen knives, we wouldn’t be able to use fire or swim, and we’d be walking but surrounded by safety cages on wheels, just in case. I’ve long maintained there are two types of gun owners: those who have had negligent discharges and those who

In 2021, a Syrian Muslim gunman opened fire at a Boulder supermarket killing ten Americans. Ahmad Al-Issa, the gunman, had been convinced that Americans were ‘Islamophobic’ and his family had moved from what would become the ISIS capital in Syria. The Al-Issa family lived in Arvada, a refugee sanctuary city near Boulder that had also previously produced Shannon Conley, an American convert to Islam who tried to join ISIS and scouted a local church. Boulder authorities blamed gun violence and mental illness. Now, Mohamed Sabry Soliman, an Egyptian Muslim, set elderly Jews on fire at a march to free hostages held by the Hamas terrorists whom he supported, while shouting “Free Palestine”.

While it looked like law enforcement came out in force on Monday night to help deal with the rioting in Los Angeles, Fox News reported something interesting happening earlier that evening. Fox's Bill Melugin reported how "hundreds" showed up out of nowhere, some with foreign flags. Then they reported that people were being given earplugs, gas masks, and water bottles, not to drink but to toss at the cops. Melugin also said people were communicating by radio to let others know where the police movements were. But this was perhaps the most intriguing moment, from the local Fox affiliate: the video of the truck pulling up, just giving

If you’re the media, you call it a “mostly peaceful protest.” Normal people might call it an “insurrection.” But “insurrection” is not quite right, either. “Insurrection” implies a violent revolt against the government by its own citizens, not violence by uninvited foreigners who refuse to leave. I suppose you could call it a riot, but when its foreigners claiming ownership of the land, it’s a bit more than that. So, the question remains: What do you call it when foreigners: illegally enter the country, refuse our requests that they leave, assert ownership over the land, attack our people, places and government, under the colors of their foreign flag while burning the American flag,

CLAIM: “On January 6th…we begged the President of the United States to send in the National Guard. He would not do it.” VERDICT: FALSE. Trump offered the National Guard ahead of time, but Democrats refused. Former Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) claimed Tuesday in a news conference on Capitol Hill that President Trump refused to send the National Guard to protect the Capitol from rioters on January 6, 2021. Her point was to contrast Trump’s supposed refusal to protect the Capitol with his apparent enthusiasm for federalizing the California National Guard in recent days to quell left-wing riots in Los Angeles, California. She made her remarks among other California Democrats,

Far-left protesters, criminal opportunists and immigrant activists have descended on the streets of Los Angeles over the past few days in an effort to push back against President Trump’s efforts to deport the millions of people who are illegally residing across the country. Speaking at a press conference on Tuesday, Waters argued that there was “no violence” in any of the protests, despite video evidence to the contrary. “Even those who were out of step with what we are advocating, peaceful protest, did not create any violence,” Waters said. “Nobody was shot. Nobody was killed. Get it in your head.”

There’s an old joke line that says, “Don’t confuse me with facts.” It’s also a leftist line of argument. I used to try to argue with a leftist about politics, but whenever I’d bring in facts to counter his theories, he’d storm out, furious that I was polluting the discussion with how the world actually works. Greta Thunberg is a leftist down to the marrow of her bones, so she, too, refuses to have her ideological purity tainted by the facts. That’s why, when Israel attempted to show her and her fellow “selfie” yacht comrades footage of the October 7 atrocities,
