Fishrrman's "College Fix":
(a Fishrrman original)

Close the universities.
Send the students home and tell them to get a real job.
Fire the faculties and administrators and BLACKLIST them from ever working in education again.
Give the campuses away to the homeless and illegals, they'll make better use of them.

Keep ONLY the professional schools (medical, scientific, technical) where the students might actually LEARN something. But give those institutions a "good cleaning out", as well.

Perhaps keep a modicum of private schools that accept NO government funding. Hillsdale is an example.
Forbid "student loans" -- make them pay up in advance, or borrow the money privately.

Have I made myself clear?

Crystal and I absolutely agree with you.

Editorial/Opinion/Blogs / Thanks, Biden: Hamas Now Refuses to Budge on Hostage Talks.. Ed Morrissey

Thanks, Biden: Hamas Now Refuses to Budge on Hostage Talks
Ed Morrissey 10:00 AM | May 10, 2024

Incentives: How do they work again? Perhaps someone needs to explain that concept to the White House.

Republicans and no small number of Democrats (more on that in a moment) warned that Joe Biden's suspension of arms shipments to Israel would take pressure off Hamas in negotiations. It didn't take long before Hamas proved Biden's critics correct in an utterly predictable manner:

    Indirect talks between Israel and Hamas over a deal to halt fighting in the Gaza Strip and free hostages kidnapped on October 7 appeared to break up with no discernable progress, as the terror group said it had no intention of budging from a proposal already rejected by Israel. ...

    In a message to other Palestinian factions published by the group’s al-Aqsa TV mouthpiece Friday, Hamas said talks had ended after Israel “rejected the proposal submitted by the mediators and raised objections to it.”

    It said Hamas had decided to stick to the terms of the proposal it agreed to Monday, rejecting the possibility of making any concessions.

    “The ball is now completely in the hands of the occupation,” the statement read.

In fairness, why would Hamas budge from its current maximalist position? Israel's closest ally is publicly blaming PM Benjamin Netanyahu for the war that Hamas started. US negotiators have piled pressure on Israel to make more and more concessions, all without bothering to even scold Hamas over the American hostages it holds. Key Democrat leaders in the US have called for Netanyahu to resign to find more compliant politicians in Israel to help Hamas get what it wants out of the talks, and Biden publicly agreed with them.

And now Biden has begun cutting off arms shipments to force Israel to allow Hamas to survive in Rafah.

Madeleine Westerhout has retaken the stand.

Trump attorney Susan Necheles asked her about the list of contacts she maintained for Trump once he arrived in the White House. The list ranges from news anchors such as Fox’s Bill O’Reilly and MSNBC’s Mika Brzezinski to athletes including Tom Brady and Serena Williams.
