Terrorist Training Camp UCLA Pays Out Big Settlement to Jewish Students for Permitting a "Jew Exclusion Zone" on Campus

Not a one of them asks the Mitchell and Webb question: "Are we the baddies?"

The University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) has agreed to pay $6 million to settle a lawsuit brought by Jewish students and faculty members over the school's handling of anti-Israel protests, including allowing protesters to ban Jews from a part of the campus known as a "Jew Exclusion Zone."
The lawsuit was brought last year by the Becket Fund for Religious Liberty, which accused UCLA of "aiding and abetting" an antisemitic culture, including "segregating Jewish students and preventing them from accessing the heart of campus."
In a statement to Fox News Digital, Mary Osako, the UCLA vice chancellor for strategic communications, said the university has taken "concrete action to enhance campus safety by creating a new Office of Campus and Community Safety, instituting new policies to manage protests on campus and taking decisive action for conduct that violates our longstanding policies."
"Antisemitism has no place at UCLA, and we remain steadfast in our commitment to eradicating it from our community," Osako said. "We have reflected candidly on our progress and are working to expunge antisemitism from our community in its entirety.
...
The university agreed to enter into a consent judgment and pay more than $6.13 million to the plaintiffs. A federal judge still needs to give final approval.
In August 2024, a federal judge ordered the school to stop allowing anti-Israel protesters to ban Jews from portions of the school's campus. School officials acknowledged that students had been physically blocked from accessing parts of campus.
...
"In the year 2024, in the United States of America, in the State of California, in the City of Los Angeles, Jewish students were excluded from portions of the UCLA campus because they refused to denounce their faith," a federal court found at the time.
"This fact is so unimaginable and so abhorrent to our constitutional guarantee of religious freedom that it bears repeating, Jewish students were excluded from portions of the UCLA campus because they refused to denounce their faith."
"When antisemites were terrorizing Jews and excluding them from campus, UCLA chose to protect the thugs and help keep Jews out," Frankel said in a statement provided to Fox News Digital by the Becket Fund. "That was shameful, and it is sad that my own school defended those actions for more than a year. But today's court judgment brings justice back to our campus and ensures Jews will be safe and be treated equally once again."

Harvard, for its part, sees the writing on the wall and is considering finally settling with Trump.

Harvard Is Said to Be Open to Spending Up to $500 Million to Resolve Trump Dispute
The sum sought by the government is more than twice as much as the $200 million fine that Columbia University said it would pay when it settled its clash with the White House last week.

Harvard University has signaled a willingness to meet the Trump administration's demand to spend as much as $500 million to end its dispute with the White House as talks between the two sides intensify, four people familiar with the negotiations said.
According to one of the people, Harvard is reluctant to directly pay the federal government, but negotiators are still discussing the exact financial terms.
The sum sought by the government, which recently accused Harvard of civil rights violations, is more than twice as much as the $200 million fine that Columbia University said it would pay when it settled antisemitism claims with the White House last week. Neither Harvard nor the government has publicly detailed potential terms for a settlement and what allegations the money would be intended to resolve.
President Trump has privately demanded that Harvard pay far more than Columbia. The people who described the talks and the dynamics surrounding them spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss confidential negotiations.
Although the two sides have made progress toward a deal, Harvard is also skeptical of Columbia's agreement to allow an outside monitor to oversee its sweeping arrangement with the government. Harvard officials have signaled that such a requirement for their own settlement could be a redline as a potential infringement on the university's academic freedom.

Well then there will be no settlement. You are refusing to bring yourself into alignment with US law -- and the Constitution -- regarding discrimination against some races. You have made it clear that you intend to flout and evade that law.

A federal overseer is required to make sure you stop discriminating.

But you won't.

This isn't just about your antisemitism. It's also about being anti-white and anti-Asian and anti-male.

...
Mr. Trump said in June that his administration might strike an agreement with Harvard "over the next week or so." Although that time frame has lapsed, the president has privately told aides that he will not green-light a deal unless the nation's oldest and wealthiest university agrees to spend many millions of dollars.
...
A White House spokesman, Harrison W. Fields, said on Monday that the administration's "proposition is simple and common sense: Don't allow antisemitism and D.E.I. to run your campus, don't break the law, and protect the civil liberties of all students."
Mr. Fields added that the White House was "confident that Harvard will eventually come around and support the president's vision, and through good-faith conversations and negotiations, a good deal is more than possible."

I think Harvard is more determined to discriminate against Jews, whites, Asians and men than Putin is to capture Ukraine. No good deal is possible.

7 Some kind of college/university system is necessary in this country, but hopefully "elite" institutions are a thing of the past. They are a relic of the time when a person's knowledge was restricted to what they could buy at the local bookstore and obtain through interlibrary loan. These "educational" institutions tanked their standards over exactly the same decades as the plebs accessed the internet, which was not a good business move in the long-term (in the short-term they made bank defrauding mid-wits up to their eyeballs in student loan debt).

See? The Blade knows. I said weeks ago, in the face of complaints that the Columbia settlement was a loss for Trump (!) because Columbia would go on discriminating, that a key element of the deal was an outside monitor.

An outside monitor can cause pain for decades, because it keeps the door open to go back for more. Leftist settlements (mostly for alleged discrimination against blacks) in the 1970s and 80s that required monitors are still terrorizing companies and governments even today.

DEI is a religion. Its adherents won't give it up. They won't change their minds about it and they'll act on their faith to the fullest extent possible. They have to be thrown out and replaced -- and the replacements have to be chosen by non-adherents. Until this happens, the DEI believers of Harvard will continue in their catacombs, practicing their rituals and spreading their faith, risking self-immolation for their cause.

52 Until Harvard breaks down and hires non-Marxists into their faculty, nothing will change. To do that, a seismic change in hiring methods (taking hiring decisions away from departmental faculties) must be accomplished, and maybe even big changes to tenure. After all, why should faculties be 100% Marxists and guaranteed lifetime employment?

Only Trump can accomplish these changes, in the person of Linda McMahon maybe, and it might require an executive order laying these practices into qualifications for federal grants.

It would be magnificent.

92 "Although the two sides have made progress toward a deal, Harvard is also skeptical of Columbia's agreement to allow an outside monitor to oversee its sweeping arrangement with the government. Harvard officials have signaled that such a requirement for their own settlement could be a redline as a potential infringement on the university's academic freedom."

So, it's "academic freedom" for most favored groups, oppression for the others. The legacy is the only reason any non-favored group would consider enrolling at Harvard. The more they tarnish that legacy the more they will have to bolster their classes with dunces who were admitted only for their immutable characteristics.

"There is a fifth dimension beyond that which is known to man. It is a dimension as vast as space and as timeless as infinity. It is the middle ground between light and shadow, between science and superstition, and it lies between the pit of man's fears and the summit of his knowledge. This is the dimension of imagination. It is an area which we call The Jew Exclusion Zone".

98 I think Harvard is more determined to discriminate against Jews, whites, Asians and men than Putin is to capture Ukraine. No good deal is possible.

Trump prefers deals, if he can have them on arguably favorable terms. But universities aren't bargaining in good faith, and any deal that does not include termination of a lot of administrative personnel and expulsion of students will subsequently be undermined by them. They're inveterate racists and bigots, and no deal is going to change who they are. Just like there has to be personnel turnover in government agencies, that has to happen in the universities. Otherwise, we're just collecting fines and kicking the can down the road. Maybe that's all Trump thinks can be accomplished. And given congress maybe it is, but congress ought to cut off whatever funding it can and find other ways to break the administrators.

I don't know. Was it acceptable for the pro Palestinian protesters to set up a "Jewish exclusion zone" blocking Jewish students and professors from access to campus?

Your response is not connected to my question. GQP and conservative whacks in general have been championing and demanding access for years to have Islamophobic speakers to come to come to universities. When 10/7 happened do you think it was safe for Palestinian students to walk freely on campuses? Really?

The university allowed students and faculty to literally exclude all Jewish people from parts of campus. That went on for weeks. So, yes, the university violated a whole lot of laws and ethics in support of the pro-Palestinian cause.

I live adjacent to four universities. I have never once seen a "pro-Israel agitator."

Students were blocked if they didn't denounce Zionism, not Judaism. Is Zionism part of the Jewish faith? One is a political ideology, no? I don't get it. I am open to enlightenment!

Good question. In theory, all FBI documents are digitized and kept on the SENTINEL system. I'm sure those were hidden as well.

Destroying government documents is itself a felony. It's hard to believe they would do everything they did and be worried about document destruction but these aren't the sharpest knives we are dealing with.

Someone using the word "ilk" correctly.

Far too many, supposedly learned people, out and about on the interwebs routinely use "ilk" to describe people and groups they like.

"Ilk" is a pejorative term. Do not use it when you're grouping people, places, or things that you like.

"But what Israel’s doing now is losing its standing with the rest of the world. And it can sit in its corner, and claim that it’s morally justified and it has the, you know, upper hand and all-, it’s too late!

You have to understand the compartmentalization of crimes that is the bureaucracy.
This guy in this dept. moves it to this designation.
This guy in this other dept. then marks it for destruction
Thig guy in another dept. moves it to the burn room.
And finally, the guy in the burn room is to burn it.

As of now, schools spend half - or more of their- on administration, and should they develop something of value, universities hold the patent and split royalties with the pharmaceutical company.

If you want to court an economic downturn, go ahead and drop rates again.

It doesn't work the way you want it to work...but, hey. That's just History. I am sure it will have a completely opposite effect this time.

340 >>Why? Or rather, why are higher rates better for us right now?

Because it eliminates savings from the Economic landscape and forces that money into inflated investment vehicles.

We just had 3+% Growth for the last quarter. We aren't hurting for growth.

Unless rates are above 4.5% the growth you will see won't be real.

Remember the 0% days of Obama. How was our Economy doing?

Trump isn't really trying to goose the economy with lower rates, though.

He knows that would be a byproduct of lower interest, but he's more worried about interest payments on the debt right now.
A decent rate cut could lower those payments by tens of billions a month or more.

Trump & Bessent have made that position clear several times.

They're not asking for 0.25% rates, just more in line with Europe & Asia's rates, around 3%.

Housing Market in the toilet? Shoot, they are building them in every nook and cranny around here. They are trying to zone the golf course for SFH's or townhomes in my used to be small town. Luckily it failed the first time but 'they' are very quietly trying to hold another attempt at having a public planning commission meeting but the word keeps getting out and the town folks are turning out in droves and they then abruptly announce - oh sorry but we have had to unexpectantly had to postponed this meeting..

Its absolute bonkers.

Exactly. And when your debt is $37 trillion, that means you owe roughly $1.4 trillion in interest each year at 4%. At 3% it is $1 trillion. So, a small decline in interest rates adds up to huge savings, and takes a big chunk out of the annual deficit.

If interest rates drop to the global average, AND we get the tariffs, you might see a $1.2 trillion reduction in the deficit. That brings us to only a $600 billion deficit. Cut another $100 billion in spending - you start getting int he range where we could grow our way out of it.

That's the plan.
