Early protests at Columbia sparked similar pro-Palestinian protest encampments at schools across the U.S. Students and others have been sparring over the Israel-Hamas war and its mounting death toll. Many students are demanding their universities cut financial ties with Israel. The protests have even spread to Europe, with French police removing dozens of students from the Sorbonne university after pro-Palestinian protesters occupied the main courtyard. Yale said in a statement Monday that while it supports peaceful protests and freedom of speech, it does not tolerate policy violations such as the encampment. School officials said that the protest is near residential colleges where many students are studying for final exams, and that permission must be granted for groups to hold events and put up structures on campus.
Blinken says Israel still must do more to boost humanitarian …
Trump’s campaign isn’t premised on winning a majority, something a Republican has managed only once in the past eight presidential elections, (George W. Bush in 2004). But the bulk of voters who are attracted to Kennedy aren’t activists. They skew young, but also tend to be less focused on politics and less likely to vote at all, polls show. In an interview last month with Reuters, for example, Kennedy strongly supported Israel and expressed skepticism about a cease-fire in Gaza. Every previous cease-fire “has been used by Hamas to rearm, to rebuild and then launch another surprise attack.

Columbia University says no impending 'lockdown or evictions on campus'
By July 2017, AlphaBay was roughly 10 times bigger than Silk Road ever was. Around this time, one of AlphaBay’s administrators, Alexandre Cazes, made a series of mistakes, exposing his identity. Operation Bayonet, a multinational law enforcement operation, pounced and shut down AlphaBay, arresting Cazes, who was found dead in his cell weeks later. At the time of its closing, the platform had nearly 900,000 users, of which more than a third—roughly 326,000—were active.
days that rocked USC: How a derailed commencement brought ‘complete disaster’
"We absolutely condemn the antisemitism language that we've heard of late, and we certainly condemn all the hate speech and the threats of violence out there. These protests, we understand they're important, but they do need to be peaceful," he said. The White House said Sunday that President Joe Biden respects the right of demonstrators to make their voices heard -- peacefully -- and "we don't want to see anybody hurt in the process." Addressing the physical altercations during the protests, Osako said, "We are dismayed that certain individuals instead chose to jeopardize the physical safety of the community." Reece says even simple questions, like someone asking her how she slept, gives her an opportunity to connect about mental health. "Suicide affects everyone. It doesn't matter your age, race or gender," Emhoff said.
The agency was working with Washington police to protect demonstrators' right to assemble, Guglielmi said. However, "we will remain intolerant to any violent or destructive behavior." Law enforcement, including the Secret Service, have instituted extra street closures and other measures to ensure what Secret Service spokesman Anthony Guglielmi said would be the "highest levels of safety and security for attendees." The night's remarks also were expected to cast a spotlight on the many journalists detained and otherwise persecuted around the globe for doing their jobs, including Wall Street Journal reporter Evan Gershkovich, who has been imprisoned in Russia since March 2023.
"One hundred and thirty-two people die by suicide each and every day." Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff shared the grim numbers of the growing public health crisis. The approach aims to reduce substance abuse, train more personnel and address the needs of those in underserved communities. Dark web drug sales—which form the majority activity there by volume—represent a small but growing portion of the total worldwide drug trade. Exact numbers are difficult to pin down, but the United Nations Office of Drugs and Crime estimates that such drug sales quadrupled in size over the past decade, reaching $315 million.
What not to ask the loved ones of those who have died by suicide
Perfect for flitting from work to weekend, the Studded Canvas Tote keeps your essentials (and everything else) right at hand. Prices start at just $15 and are too deeply discounted to overlook, so shop some of my top picks below before the sale ends on January 7. Using the site directly from the internet offers more features than this WHBM app. Ive tried it numerous times at first thinking there might be a learning curve. Over and over again it seemingly randomly refuses to load a specific item to display details, more photos, etc. Given an “oops, try again” prompt I uselessly have hit this button again & again.
The latest NBC News poll, for example, asked voters two horse-race questions. First, it asked about a Biden-Trump matchup and found Trump ahead 46%-44% — a result well within the survey’s margin of error. “His role and who he takes votes from is likely to be quite dynamic” as the campaign develops, said Lis Smith, the veteran Democratic strategist who leads the party’s efforts against Kennedy. In 2020, by contrast, all the independent and third-party candidates combined took less than 1.8% of the vote. Now, Biden appears to have regained some ground, especially among his fellow Democrats, and the race appears to be back to a dead heat, at least in national surveys. Columbia's handling of the protests has prompted federal complaints.
The dialogue between the university officials and the student organizers remains ongoing, according to the university. Last week, the University of California rejected calls to divest from companies that do business with Israel. Protests have broken out at colleges and universities across the country in connection with the war in Gaza. Hundreds were arrested at USC, Emerson and UT Austin in the last day. The site’s limited number of vendor registrations also created a level of exclusivity. The trade-off was that WHM's sales value never exceeded at most a fifth of AlphaBay’s peak.
According to a preliminary investigation released Friday by the Committee to Protect Journalists, nearly 100 journalists have been killed covering the war in Gaza. Israel has defended its actions, saying it has been targeting militants. Chants accused U.S. journalists of undercovering the war and misrepresenting it. "Western media we see you, and all the horrors that you hide," crowds chanted at one point. White, 37, is a retired professional snowboarder and three-time Olympic gold medalist in half-pipe snowboarding. The San Diego native is also an entrepreneur with an ownership stake in Mammoth Mountain and his own lifestyle brand.
He exchanged Monero for Paxos Standard, a type of tethered cryptocurrency pegged to the US dollar, and then used BitLiquid to exchange that for cash. The DEA agents on Engstrom’s trail, meanwhile, used toll records to determine when Engstrom visited BitLiquid on his phone and monitored the BitLiquid wallet for activity in those time frames. One transaction that lined up—an exchange of $37,000 in Paxos Standard for $36,900 in cash—automatically triggered a currency transaction report, or CTR, because it was over $10,000. That CTR allowed investigators to trace Engstrom’s deposits to his personal crypto wallets totaling $3 million—money that investigators believe come from dark web cocaine sales.
Criticism of the Biden administration's support for Israel's six-month-old military offensive in Gaza has spread through American college campuses, with students pitching encampments in an effort to force their universities to divest from Israel. Counterprotests back Israel's offensive and complain of antisemitism. With hundreds of protesters rallying against the war in Gaza outside the event and concerns over the conflict and humanitarian crisis in Gaza and the perils for journalists covering the conflict, the war hung over this year's event. The most recent Quinnipiac University national poll for example, showed 16% of registered voters saying they would support Kennedy if the election were being held today. The students and administrators have negotiated to end the disruptions, but the sides have not come to an agreement, university President Minouche Shafik said in a statement Monday. The university said it will offer an alternative venue for the protests after exams and graduation.
