Breaking: An America or Canadian militant Antifa activist who attended the London Palestine protest called @BillboardChris a fascist for opposing transitioning children. The Antifa man tries to rally Muslim women to his cause but they tell him they disagree with him too. pic.twitter.com/UJYPLX7iNs

“Intersectional comedy:” This is the kind of thing I had in mind when I wondered if pranksters would plaster the Harvard campus with ISLAM IS RIGHT ABOUT WOMEN and ISLAM IS RIGHT ABOUT GAYS posters.

MICHAEL WALSH ON JOE BIDEN: Dead Man Shuffling. “As with any Times political story (and nowadays, they’re almost all political), the question we must ask is: why now? Why on a Sunday, the most important day of the week in Timesland.”

JOEL KOTKIN: Is the West ready for World War 3? Even as geopolitical tensions rise, Western elites are still sabotaging our industries and energy security.

It’s almost as if those “elites” are on the payroll of our enemies.

#JOURNALISM:

What he actually said is that he installed accountability software on his son's devices to keep his son from using porn, and he put the same software on his own devices to show his son he wasn't using porn either. But Rolling Stone is a dishonest publication. https://t.co/EhlzOD1UUh

AN ADULT ON CAMPUS, FINALLY: “Tulane University’s president schools his mealymouthed peers in responding to students’ anti-Semitic violence.”

ICYMI: OHIO NORTHERN UNIVERSITY: Power Corrupts but Sunlight Disinfects.

“You don’t look Asian because your eyes are round instead of oval.”

“She’s the most pregnant woman I’ve ever seen.”

“Prospective law students prefer to see young faculty faces rather than old faculty faces.”

“I suppose you think you owe Professor Gerber because he practically wrote your paper.”

“The law school shouldn’t engage in illegal hiring practices.”

While one might expect a storm of consequences for the individual responsible for the first four statements, the story at Ohio Northern University (ONU) unfolds quite differently.

Behind the first four comments is, of all people, the current Dean of ONU’s College of Law, Charles Rose, who, in spite of uttering such statements, received a five-year contract extension.

Professor Scott Gerber, on the other hand, who opposed illegal hiring practices, found himself removed from his classroom by campus security officers on April 14 and was escorted to a meeting with Rose, who handed Gerber a “memorandum initiating his suspension from all faculty duties.”

Make them pay.

YOU’LL NEVER HEAR A SANCTIMONIOUS BARACK OBAMA SPEECH ABOUT THIS: “The root cause of the violence we have seen in Israel and Gaza over the past month is the sick culture that prevails in Gaza. Jew-hatred is the only value in that culture, and terror its only product.”

A much less truthful or useful take: Obama: We Are All Complicit For the Violence in Israel-Hamas War. Of course, aside from his usual anti-Western shtick, he’s trying to spread the blame here because in fact the policies he championed, under his own administration and under Biden’s, are substantially at fault.

And what does he mean about “the occupation?” Israel withdrew from Gaza before Barack Obama was elected President for the first time. Or by “the occupation” does he mean Israel’s simple existence? Because that’s what Hamas means by it. Does Obama want it to be Jew-free “from the river to the sea?”

Hell, he probably does.

IF HE WERE MUSLIM, THE PEOPLE COMPLAINING ABOUT IT WOULD BE CELEBRATING HIM: The Christian Faith Of Speaker Of The House Mike Johnson.

ICYMI: THE AMY WAX DOUBLE STANDARD AT PENN: Amy Wax, Liz Magill, and Hypocrisy.

I represent Professor Amy L. Wax, a tenured professor of law at the University of Pennsylvania Carey Law School. She is the target of charges brought by the former dean of the law school; he asked the school to strip her of tenure and fire her for remarks she made in the media and on campus.

Whatever you may have heard or read about the case, the events of the last few weeks concerning a “Palestine Writes Literature Festival” at Penn and the University’s response to it, and the rallies on campus and statements that have been made since, proves one thing: My client is the victim of a glaring double standard which can only be explained by Penn’s naked, left-leaning partisanship. If you are a Jew-hating and Israel-bashing propagandist, you can say anything and invite anyone you want to campus and you are protected by the school’s commitment to academic freedom. However, if you are a white Jewish conservative thinker who openly challenges the notion that “institutional” or “structural racism” explains life for many African Americans today and you assign books and invite speakers who support those views, then you need to go.

Yep, that’s pretty much how they see it at Penn.

OPEN THREAD: Ring out the weekend.

SPACE: Virgin Galactic carries researchers on fifth commercial suborbital flight.

EVEN A FLATWORM IS SMART ENOUGH TO TURN AWAY FROM PAIN (CONT’D): Can’t Imagine Why: Majority of Germans Now Completely Over Muslim Immigration.

REALLY? I’VE BEEN HEARING WOMEN COMPLAIN ABOUT ENDOMETRIOSIS SINCE I WAS A KID. Millions of Women Feel Severe Pain From This Condition. Why Don’t We Talk About It?

AS LONG AS IT’S AGAINST THE JEWS: Genocide Is Popular. “Yesterday, many thousands of Islamofascists and leftists turned out across the globe for pro-Hamas demonstrations, celebrating the massacre of October 7 and demanding the extermination of Jews. Trafalgar Square was packed to overflowing.”

LOL:

They’re gonna hate the new rules that they made.

HE NEEDED THOSE IN 2016, BUT YEAH: If Trump Wins, His Allies Want Lawyers Who Will Bless a More Radical Agenda: Politically appointed lawyers sometimes frustrated Donald J. Trump’s ambitions. His allies are planning to install more aggressive legal gatekeepers if he regains the White House.

THE OBAMA MACHINE SENDS A SIGNAL TO JOE BIDEN:

Only @JoeBiden can make this decision. If he continues to run, he will be the nominee of the Democratic Party. What he needs to decide is whether that is wise; whether it's in HIS best interest or the country's?

LEAVE THAT TO SPACEX: We Asked a NASA Scientist: Is NASA Mining Asteroids?

THIS IS WHAT CONSIDERATENESS LOOKS LIKE: Men less likely than women to share negative information, says study.

LOL, NO THEY DON’T: Democrats in Congress Think Federal Gun Owner Licensing is the Path to ‘Gun Safety’ Nirvana. They want a gun ban.

GUN SAFETY: How Far We’ve Come.

NO, IT SHOULD BE EASIER TO GET THEM EVERYWHERE: It’s easier than ever to get prescription drugs online. Should regulators be paying more attention?

FASTER, PLEASE: It’s almost showtime for SpaceX’s massive Starship rocket.

WELL, GOOD: Study confirms effectiveness of newer arthritis meds.

HEALTH: Pulsed field ablation works as well for women as men for a-fib.
