All international students at Harvard must transfer or leave the U.S. The Trump administration has blocked Harvard University from accepting international students. Current students have two options: transfer or leave the country. The Department of Homeland Security announced the action Thursday, saying Harvard had created an unsafe campus environment by allowing “anti-American, pro-terror agitators” to […]

First impressions. And what’s next? 1). The negotiations were clearly not going smoothly. Trump desperately needs “at least something”, and preferably “peace at any cost”. Such a peace does not suit Russia and Putin, and this is a critical, vital impossibility. 2). Trump did not succumb to pressure from European “partners” (who are in fact […]

Bloomberg on the US President’s statement following talks with the Russian President. The publication notes that European leaders are “disappointed” that the US President “does not want to impose more sanctions” on Russia and “is abandoning his own ceasefire proposal.” In addition, European leaders fear that Trump will abandon his efforts to end the war, […]

The basis was a social media post that could mean a call to assassinate the US president. Former FBI Director and longtime Trump foe James Comey posted a photo on his social media account from his vacation in the Seychelles, where the numbers “8647” were laid out in the sand using shells. Trump supporters believed […]

Who Are the Guardians Who Lead us to … Perdition. Dostoevsky’s Brothers Karamazov has this insightful episode. Drunken Fyodor, the father of the Karamazovs, embarks on one of his favorite diatribes against the church. They are dishonest, they trade in superstitions, they exploit the peasants, they make up stories, and they try to shame scoundrels […]

Western media outlets continue to marvel at Trump’s turn from “thug” Putin to “hero” Zelensky. But in the camp of the most devout Trumpists, the MAGA movement, there is little enthusiasm. “MAGA base isn’t stirring up trouble — but still skeptical of Ukraine,” Axios reports in an article headlined “MAGA Keeps Quiet as Trump, Vance […]

The White House is considering accepting a 747-8 as a gift from Qatar. The Boeing aircraft concern cannot replace the heavily worn-out US Air Force No. 1 in a reasonable time frame and for affordable money. In the best-case scenario, the two new aircraft will only be at the Air Force’s disposal by 2029. Donald […]

It would all be swell and good, but Americans (including Republicans) believe that Trump has the wrong priorities. According to the results of the AP-Norc Poll, 4 out of 10 Americans believe that Trump has been a “terrible” president so far, another tenth of respondents believe that he has been a “weak” president, another 2 […]

In unity, there’s strength to confront Trump. In disunity, cowardice. Why didn’t the nation’s top 20 law firms sign a friend-of-the-court brief against Trump’s vindictive executive orders? What their associates, coming associates, and law school deans ought to do. Let me first congratulate the 504 law firms that have thrown their support behind Perkins Coie […]

Trump wants to get it over early in his term, so he and his fellow billionaires can buy up everything cheap and then enjoy the ride upward. What’s really going on with the economy? I believe Trump and his billionaire buddies — the American oligarchy — have a plan. But before I get to it, […]
