Trump Admin Probes California State University System Over Anti-Semitism, Racial Bias Claims

The Trump administration has launched an investigation into all 22 campuses of the California State University (CSU) system over allegations of anti-Semitism and racial discrimination.

Chancellor Mildred Garcia said in a Sept. 26 letter to the Cal State community that the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) has launched “a systemwide antisemitism complaint” against Cal State. Garcia said investigators have already begun contacting faculty and staff to review allegations and speak with them about their experiences on campus.

Garcia also revealed that the Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights has initiated a separate inquiry into Cal State. That probe centers on allegations of racial discrimination “due to interactions with the PhD Project,” a nonprofit organization created to diversify business education and the corporate workforce.

Garcia said that news of the investigations “may be unsettling” for faculty and staff, and she denied any misconduct and emphasized that Cal State intends to cooperate fully with the probes.

“The CSU does not discriminate against or give preference to any individual or group based on race, ethnicity, nationality, shared ancestry, religion or any other protected status,” Garcia wrote.

She added that the system is “firmly committed” to ensuring that admissions and hiring are based solely on merit.

DOJ Targets Pro-Palestine Groups with Same Law Used by Biden Admin Against Pro-Life Activists 

On Monday, the Department of Justice (DOJ) announced a lawsuit against pro-Palestine protestors who allegedly targeted a synagogue in New Jersey in 2024.

Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon will use the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances (FACE) Act, the same act that the Biden administration used to target pro-life activists.

AG Dhillon shared during a press conference, “The practice of turning a blind eye to these attacks on houses of worship throughout the United States stops now.”

“Today, we announced the filing of a civil complaint against individuals and organizations who organized and carried out a violent protest that interfered with a religious event and obstructed worshippers at congregation Ohr Torah Synagogue in West Orange, New Jersey, last year.”

“These violent protestors meant their actions for evil. But we will use this case to bring forth good, the protection of all Americans’ religious liberty.”

“Let me summarize what happened in this incident last November. About 50 protestors, including the defendants, organized a mass protest and assembled illegally without a permit, gathering near a Jewish worshipper’s home before moving towards congregation Ohr Torah Synagogue in West Orange, New Jersey.”

“Some of the protesters carried in blue Vuvuzelas, horns capable causing hearing damage while shouting at Jewish residents as they passed their neighborhoods. The group marched onto synagogue property, blowing the Vuvuzelas and shouting to drown out a memorial service and a Torah sermon.”

“Defendants Altaf Sharif and Jane Doe blew Vuvuzelas within inches of a Jewish worshipper’s ears. Sharif then charged at the Jewish worshiper. When another worshiper intervened with pepper spray, defendant Eric Kamens pointed at the worshiper and shouted, ‘the Jew is here,’ prompting Sharif to place the worshiper in a chokehold lasting over 20 seconds.”

“Even after the police ordered the mob off synagogue grounds, they continued shouting threats, including, ‘You can’t hide,’ and ‘You’re next.’”

Fascism Alert: Rep. Eric “Fang Fang” Swalwell Vows to Go After Private Citizens Working With President Trump Should Democrats Seize Control of Congress

The Democrats will be targeting ordinary Americans to retailate against the Trump Adminstration for holding disgraced former FBI Director James Comey accountable along with people who have worked with President Trump to clean up corruption and go after bad actors.

As The Gateway Pundit reported, the Department of Justice indicted Comey on Thursday on charges of making false statements and obstruction of justice.

This came days after Trump issued a public demand for his Justice Department to act “now” to bring prosecutions against Comey for his crimes.

Comey repeatedly lied to Congress and the FISA Court in order to spy on Trump in the Russiagate scandal, something he knew was completely made up back in 2016.

Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-China) went on CNN this morning and vowed revenge on the Trump Administration.

He stated that should Democrats gain control of Congress, they would subpoena the Department of Justice and try to bully them into coughing up answers.

“We’re going into the majority a year from now,” Swalwell said. “We will bring oversight…We will subpoena the Department of Justice.”

Swalwell then made clear private citizens who had worked with Trump would be in the Democrat bullseye if his party seizes control of Congress. So, fascism is on the menu.

“But also private actors who have done these drug deals with the administration,” Swalwell stated. “College campuses, entertainment companies, law firms…”

“So, accountability is coming,” he added. “It’s all coming out.”

“I hope that deters people from doing more of these deals for the president.”

Conservative Pro-Debate Group Kicked Off Campus At Tennessee State University

A pro Debate conservative group known as “Fearless Debates” was kicked off campus at Tennessee State University as reported by Campus Reform.

In a widely viewed video on social media a man wearing a MAGA hat is seen being yelled at by students.

Later on an angry riot broke out with people throwing things at debaters Cam Higby and David Khait’s vehicle.

The students rioting also shouted Black power at the Cam and David.

The “Fearless Debates” posted on Instagram that the group was tabling at Tennessee State University was the first historically Black University they were visiting on this tour named Fearless Tour.

These debaters just wished to have a respectful exchange of ideas but sadly on many liberal campuses this is no longer accepted.

The signs they used to promote discussion stated “DEI should be illegal” as well as “Deport all illegals now! Lets talk!”.

According to News Channel 5 “Fearless Debates” said “they had come to create conversation and discourse.” They were eventually kicked off campus.

The university stated “The safety and well-being of our students, faculty and staff remain our highest priority. TSU will continue to uphold university policies and ensure that campus remains a safe, welcoming and orderly environment for all members of our community.”

The NAACP claimed this free speech group had sought to “antagonize, disrupt, and instill fear in a space created to be safe, affirming, and supportive of Black students.”

College was originally meant to be a place of different ideas and debates but apparently The NAACP doesn’t  agree with exposing students to different ideas.

Hillary Clinton Suggests ‘Formal Deprogramming’ For ‘MAGA Extremists’ Who Still Support Trump

In an interview with CNN, Hillary Clinton compared supporters of former President Donald Trump to a “cult” and said that “maybe there needs to be a formal deprogramming of the cult members.”

“Sadly, so many of those extremists, those MAGA extremists, take their marching orders from Donald Trump, who has no credibility left by any measure,” Clinton told CNN’s Christiane Amanpour in an interview that aired Thursday night. “He’s only in it for himself.”

Seizing on Clinton’s comments, the Trump campaign issued a statement Thursday night, saying “President Trump has said countless times that they are only coming after him, because he stands in their way from coming after you — and Hillary Clinton just confirmed that to be true. Tens of millions of Americans will reject the Democrat Party’s re-education camp agenda in November 2024 when we make Donald Trump the 47th President of the United States.”

Clinton, who ran against Trump and lost in 2016, painted the 2024 election as a choice between two vastly different visions for America. “One will wreck our democracy. One violates the law on a regular basis. One appeals to the worst in our collective psyche. The other gets things done,” she said. “Why is that a hard choice?”

University of Cincinnati has removed the TPUSA chapter from campus suddenly with no explanation

University of Cincinnati removes TPUSA chapter from campus suddenly with no explanation

Controversy is once again shaking the American university system. This time, the University of Cincinnati has abruptly removed the student chapter of Turning Point USA (TPUSA) from its campus, offering no official explanation. The decision has sparked outrage among conservative students, who argue this is nothing more than ideological retaliation against those who dare to think differently in an environment dominated by progressive policies.

The chapter’s president confirmed that they received an email notifying them of their immediate removal as an officially recognized student organization. But the blow didn’t stop there: in addition to losing their status on campus, the students are now being forced to pay for the rental of spaces they had already reserved for future events. A double penalty that, according to TPUSA members, illustrates the systematic hostility they face as conservatives within academia.

Being a conservative student at a public university is already difficult, but decisions like this make the situation unbearable. TPUSA members say every step they take is hindered by bureaucracy, ideological pressure, and now financial punishment. The message they receive is clear: conservative ideas are not welcome.

This is not the first time the University of Cincinnati has faced accusations of censorship and retaliation. Just a few years ago, a student was formally charged for using the term “biological woman” in a mandatory Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) course. For many, that case set a dangerous precedent that is now being repeated with the suppression of TPUSA’s chapter.

The decision has sparked criticism beyond the campus. National conservative voices warn that similar cases are multiplying across the country, as universities push a cancel culture that punishes those who defend principles like free speech, personal responsibility, and traditional values. According to these critics, the academic left seeks to mold students into a single line of thought while eliminating any real space for debate.

What troubles students most is the lack of transparency. No clear reason has been given for the removal, and no appeals process has been offered. For the affected students, this is an abuse of institutional power and clear evidence of political bias at the university. On top of that, imposing extra costs for pre-reserved spaces amounts to financial punishment against a group that had followed all the rules.

Māori women’s rights advocate faces jail over social media posts

Rex Landy, an outspoken Māori women’s rights advocate and member of Mana Wāhine Kōrero, is facing court action under the Harmful Digital Communications Act after being reported to police by a trans activist over her social media posts.

Landy was arrested in December 2024 after complaints from Daniel Johnston, a fantasy author who identifies as female and is known online as “Caitlin Spice.” 

Police first contacted Landy in 2022 and later issued a written warning. “They told me I had to stop saying what I was saying… 

The very next day I received a written warning in the post threatening that they had enough to charge me under the Harmful Digital Communications Act 2015.” 

In September 2024, Landy was ordered by the court to delete all posts referencing Johnston. She says she deleted everything but claims she missed two posts. 

On 18 December, she said police raided her home, seized devices, and charged her with failing to obey a court order.

She was given another charge after Johnston claimed she had indirectly referenced him in a livestream. Prosecutors have ruled out diversion, telling the court she was “in the grip of an ideology,” meaning they view her stance as rigid and unchangeable rather than a one-off lapse, and therefore undeserving of leniency. Landy reportedly faces up to three months in jail or a $50,000 fine.

“Win, lose, or draw – he’ll never be a woman. I’ve already won. I’m a woman, he isn’t,” Landy said.

If Big Tech Doesn’t Treat Leftist Terrorists Like It Did Donald Trump, Government Should Make Them

The tragic murder of Charlie Kirk has exposed the dark underbelly of left-wing discourse on the Internet as users on BlueSky, Reddit, and Discord celebrate the vicious assassination of a young husband and father because of his politics and faith. Moreover, FBI Director Kash Patel has confirmed evidence that some media users may have previewed Kirk’s killing days beforehand (the FBI is investigating at least twenty Discord users for their communications with the killer).

This entire episode highlights the dangerous radicalization that has happened over years as extreme rhetoric online pushes young people toward desperate and awful acts. Social media companies need to take responsibility for their role in radicalization, and their failure to address irresponsible liberal discourse after their aggressive censorship of conservative viewpoints exposes a dangerous double standard.

A template for how private actors can self-police was on display Tuesday when local television affiliates, Nexstar and Sinclair, forced Disney/ABC’s hand to cancel indefinitely Jimmy Kimmel Live! They recognized that the callousness and blatant misinformation on that show did not serve the public interest. By contrast, social media titans have enabled irresponsible leftist rhetoric to proliferate and pollute civil discourse.

For the last decade, the Left has sought to drive conservatives from the public square through tools like deplatforming and debanking. Working hand-in-glove with the Biden administration, for instance, the Big Tech companies canceled thousands of conservative voices who dared to challenge the then-conventional wisdom during the Covid-19 pandemic. And they did so again after the 2020 election, targeting “election deniers” and “J-6ers” for cancellation, even going so far as to ban President Trump. Not only everyday citizens, but a half-dozen senators and congressmen (all Republicans) had their accounts suspended for violating these “community standards.” Even Stripe stopped processing campaign contributions to Donald Trump because the financial services company believed he violated their arbitrary standards.

When the Big Tech companies defended those decisions in the media and the courts, they turned again and again to their “terms and conditions,” the contracts users sign that permitted the companies to remove content that violated their “community standards.” The popular conversation site Reddit, for instance, has a set of “Reddit Rules” that include principles like “[e]veryone has a right to use Reddit free of harassment, bullying, and threats of violence. Communities and users that incite violence or that promote hate based on identity or vulnerability will be banned.”

On January 8, 2021, two days after the protests taking over the Capitol, the news magazine Variety reported that “Reddit on Friday said it banned r/donaldtrump — one of the biggest pro-Trump subreddits on the platform — after ‘repeated’ violations of the site’s policy against inciting violence.”

Many of these decisions occur down the Internet stacks and not just at the platform level, such as a cloud services company that manages the site’s traffic or even the app store. This was on full demonstration in 2018 when Cloudflare CEO Matthew Prince unilaterally decided to stop servicing the alt-right website Daily Stormer after they were instrumental in planning the infamous neo-Nazi demonstration in Charlottesville, Virginia. As Prince explained in a Wall Street Journal column, he decided it was no longer in Cloudflare’s interests to service this client, so he pulled the plug. Prince simply found that the Daily Stormer was in breach of his company’s Terms of Service and decided to act accordingly.

Charlie Kirk’s Allegedly “Racist” Comments Are Just Uncomfortable Truths

The left keeps portraying Charlie Kirk as a racist. Anyone who has actually watched his debates or listened to his podcasts knows that he is not.

After scouring articles and social media posts for the evidence used to label him a racist, it seems to center on a handful of statements taken out of context which, do not represent racism but rather uncomfortable truths that run against the liberal narrative.

Alleged or documented remarks attributed to Charlie Kirk include the “brain processing power” comment regarding specific Black women, the statement that “prowling Blacks go around for fun to target white people in urban America,” and the accusation that he is antisemitic despite his frequent and explicit support for Israel.

This last charge is especially ironic, since liberals now hate Israel and are openly antisemitic.

On July 13, 2023, Charlie Kirk said one could, “without being called racist,” say that four prominent Black women, Sheila Jackson Lee, Joy Reid, Michelle Obama, and Ketanji Brown Jackson, were affirmative-action picks. He then showed a clip of Jackson Lee stating before Congress that she was an affirmative-action hire.

He added that they did not have “the brain processing power to be taken seriously” and should yield opportunities to someone “more deserving.”

The statement was attacked as racist, but Kirk was not making a claim about all Black people.

He was criticizing these four individuals, at least one of whom explicitly said she was an affirmative-action hire.

This is yet another example of how conservatives want to judge people as individuals and liberals demand that every interaction be based on skin color, where even arguing with a single person is characterized as a global attack on an entire demographic.

This criticism connects to Kirk’s broader statements on affirmative action.

He previously stated that because of affirmative action, when he sees a Black pilot, he has to consider if the person was hired based on diversity rather than merit.

He made the same observation about an incompetent customer service representative. In both instances, his statement is accurate and consistent with the definition of affirmative action.

Kirk did not say Blacks cannot be good pilots or good customer service representatives.

Why did the BBC call Charlie Kirk ‘far right’?

‘Mr Kirk built a huge and devoted following for his far-right views’, said the BBC’s North America editor Sarah Smith on Sunday. The statement came during the BBC’s coverage of Charlie Kirk’s memorial in Arizona, which was attended by tens of thousands of mourners and was addressed by US president Donald Trump.

Smith’s statement is nothing short of astonishing. It would be one thing for blue-haired keyboard warriors on Bluesky to be referring to dead conservatives as fascists. But it is quite another for the UK’s state broadcaster to toe that same line. The BBC pays Smith more than £200,000 a year to report impartially on American affairs. We would hope someone in her esteemed position might pause for thought before smearing a man who was killed for his beliefs.

The BBC isn’t alone in painting Kirk as ‘far right’. In the days following his murder, mainstream media rushed to portray him and his views as beyond the pale. The Guardian, like the BBC, described Kirk as ‘far right’, as well as a man who ‘stood for the darker themes of… US nativism’. The New York Times accused Kirk of leading a ‘hard-right youth movement’. It was also forced to make a correction after falsely attributing an anti-Semitic quote to him.

Needless to say, this is all pretty grotesque. Kirk has just been murdered – seemingly by a genuine extremist. Wittingly or not, smearing him as a fascist, dehumanising him in death, comes dangerously close to justifying or at least sanitising his killing.

In truth, none of Kirk’s political stances could be seen as ‘far right’ in any other time except the strange epoch we live in. Defending the US First Amendment, opposing abortion, being in favour of meritocracy and insisting that men cannot become women are not unusual stances for Christian conservatives or US Republicans. You do not have to agree with these positions to recognise they do not make someone far right.
