A US district court judge in New York has denied Cooper Union’s attempt to dismiss a lawsuit brought by 10 Jewish students, who allege “a hostile educational environment on the basis of their national origin”.
John Cronan, a judge on the US District Court for the Southern District of New York, also ordered the lower Manhattan private college to file an answer to the complaint by Febuary 26.
In a 56-page opinion, Cronan stated that the Jewish students presented “sufficient facts to establish an actionably hostile educational environment based on instances of harassment that are not constitutionally protected.”
The plaintiffs allege “plausibly” that “Jewish students at Cooper Union were subject to antisemitic abuse that was both severe and pervasive based on facts properly considered under Title VI [of the Civil Rights Act] and the First Amendment,” the judge stated.
On October 25, 2023, a little more than two weeks after the Hamas-led terrorist attacks on the Jewish State, anti-Israel protesters screamed “free Palestine” and pounded on a door at a Cooper Union library, as Jewish students, including two wearing kippahs, hid within.
The private university blamed the Jewish students for gathering “in a prominent place in the library where they could be seen by the demonstrators” and for refusing a recommendation to hide “in the windowless upstairs portion of the library out of the demonstrators’ sight,” said the judge.
Cooper Union also faulted them for not escaping “the library through the back exit,” he added.
Please explain how I was wrong. You can't.
Where are the “white lib judges” saying that? The judge said that was the argument made by Cooper Union, dumb dumb. Sounds like bad CYA from a crappy school admin. Poor reading from copy+paste brain rot.
You’ve been playing the fool and the troll, but Tone could be instructive. His better angels showed righteous critique. His yielding to harsh populism led to poorer outcomes
But Trump is the GOAT insecure/shallow person, and he’s only hired those without a spine in 2.0, so we get North Korean level absurdity.
Well, he’s remarkably insecure, shallow, and destructive. But I believe you’re comparing him to NK not merely on the basis of sequence but on that of severity, which would make the Kim Jongs both the Worst OAT or GOAT, depending on how you want to convey it. Lowest in the U.S.? Well, for just insecurity of that sort, OK. He’s an effin cartoon character in that regard.
You of all people promoting an Irish Civil Rights movement with roots and connections to the American Civil Rights movement. You are one very confused puppy.
Does Q-Anon still exist? I would like to do some research but I don't dare go hunting for it online. Who knows what type of right wing hell hole I would be immersing myself in.
In hindsight they were right about a lot of things with this pedo stuff. But it was 100% pure projection. it was all Trump and his staff. Some 35+ in Trump's orb are in the Epstein files.
Some suggest it was Mike Flynn who ran that right wing psyop. And was Q himself. Just curious if it is deceased or still alive? And does it still have believers?

I think the guy behind Q ran for congress. Either him or his son. He didn’t win though.
Amid tensions over President Trump’s immigration crackdown in Minnesota and beyond, federal agents were told this week that they have broader power to arrest people without a warrant, according to an internal Immigration and Customs Enforcement memo reviewed by The New York Times.
The change expands the ability of lower-level ICE agents to carry out sweeps rounding up people they encounter and suspect are undocumented immigrants, rather than targeted enforcement operations in which they set out, warrant in hand, to arrest a specific person.
