Five-and-a-half years after being convicted of providing material support for terrorism, terror lawyer Lynne Stewart finally received a sentence commensurate with her crime. She was resentenced last week to 10 years. But if George Soros had his way, she would be free today. Stewart made a career out of defending street criminals and terrorists, including Sammy "The Bull" Gravano (pleaded guilty), Weather Underground terrorist David J. Gilbert (convicted), and Larry Davis (acquitted of wounding six policemen and killing several others in 1986, only to be convicted of a later murder and killed in prison). It should have come as...

Dan has a Masters...

Citi has fired one of its personal bankers after she defended Hitler and the holocaust in a vile anti-Semitic post following the Hamas terror attacks. CUNY Brooklyn College graduate Nozima Husainova, 25, sparked outrage with the remark which she posted on her now-deleted Instagram page and she's since lost her job, the bank confirmed Thursday. Responding to a post about the Gaza hospital bombing that Israel has denied, she wrote: 'No wonder why Hitler wanted to get rid of them all,' complete with a smiley face emoji.

Big Apple college campuses are woefully unprepared to respond to the fresh wave of “potentially dangerous” anti-Israel protests expected when students return to the classroom this fall, CUNY cops warned. The CUNY officers, who blame a systematic dismantling of the public university system’s police forces for the lack of preparation, sounded the alarm after violent demonstrations erupted at campuses across the city in response to the Israel-Hamas war. “The university is going into this under fire – they have no idea what’s going to happen. There’s no preparation,” a CUNY officer speaking on condition of anonymity told The Post. CUNY...

An anti-Israel protestor busted during the Columbia University and City College campus unrest once declared that the Oct. 7 Hamas terror attack was one of the “greatest days of my life,” police sources told The Post — as details on other arrestees’ violent pasts continued to emerge Thursday. Rudy Ralph Martinez, 32, was among the 282 protesters and agitators who were cuffed and hauled away when the NYPD encountered unruly mobs during a crackdown on tent encampments at both schools late Tuesday. Martinez, who was nabbed at CUNY’s Harlem campus on a burglary charge, is a serial protester on the...

One of the problems with the campus radicals and useful idiots is that they don't really live in reality. They talk about an occupation when there is no occupation of Gaza by Israel. They talk about a genocide when there is no genocide by Israel. There is a genocide being attempted by Hamas against Israel, but the radicals and idiots seem to refuse delivery on that reality. Fox's Lawrence Jones asked one of their people hawking propaganda material on the street outside of Columbia University some important questions, and her responses show how empty their positions truly are. He asked...

It’s going on four months since Gov. Hochul tapped former state Chief Judge Jonathan Lippman to review discrimination and antisemitism at the City University of New York, but it looks like New Yorkers will have to keep waiting for his report — even as at least some CUNY schools are taking some steps to crack down on the hate. “The problem didn’t begin with the weeks following Oct. 7 attacks. It’s been growing on a number of campuses and seen most acutely in the City University of New York,” Hochul said when she launched the probe in October. When will...

Collective bargaining through a labor union is supposed to “level the playing field” for workers, enabling them to obtain better terms than if they bargained on their own. That is the justification for federal and state laws that give elected unions exclusive representation power, meaning that all of the workers must accept the union as their representative. Individuality is out. That arrangement is fine with many, but what if some workers are unhappy with “their” union? What if they don’t think the union operates in their interest? What if it makes public statements they disagree with? The unions reply, “Too...

By now we all know that academia is utterly compromised, filled with anti-Western propagandists who see their role as being the vanguard of the proletariat.Still, even I am shocked at how brazen these professors from the City University of New York, a once-great institution, are in their open support not just for Hamas, but for their acts of terrorism.The events of October 7th weren’t terrorist acts, but a “military operation” that just happened to include rape, indiscriminate murder of civilians, and the desecration of bodies.You know, like any military operation, right?And there is also no equivalence between the October 7...

CUNY's law school banned student speakers at future commencements after last year's anti-Israel rant that called the NYPD and other groups 'fascist.' In a now-infamous speech from last year, Yemeni immigrant Fatima Mousa Mohammed claimed laws are 'white supremacy' and attacked American institutions. The speech drew immediate backlash from numerous organizations and elected officials, even as Fatima defended her words and doubled down on her message. Now, administrations have quietly banned student speakers at the school's graduation, though they will still give speeches as 'pre-commencement' events. 'It's a great step in trying to combat hate speech at the law school...

The NYPD said it busted more than a dozen johns — including a CUNY Arabic professor — trying to hire prostitutes in Brooklyn, following a Post exposé on the open-air sex trade plaguing East New York. In the early morning hours on Aug. 18, cops cuffed and charged 10 pervy patrons looking for sex along Wortman and Alabama avenues as well as Malta Street in East New York, police said. A week later, seven more men were arrested during a second sting at the same location, cops said. Among those arrested was Brooklyn’s Chernor Barrie, 31, an adjunct lecturer of...

The CUNY law school graduate student who gave a 'hate-filled' commencement speech has doubled down on her attacks on 'facist police' and military - and says given the chance she would say it all again even louder

Ramzi Kassem repped an Al Qaeda terrorist; now he’s setting immigration policy for Biden. “This is not a battle of good versus evil,” Ramzi Kassem wrote in an op-ed that appeared on September 17, 2001. “The perpetrators were probably not driven to their actions by some intrinsic evil or inherent hatred of the good United States.” He went on to argue that the Al Qaeda attack a week earlier was the result of the “resentment these terrorists felt towards the United States” as a result of “our country’s policies.” Two decades later, Kassem, now a CUNY law professor and prominent...

In her role there as dean, Setty was behind the establishment of the “Antiracism and Cultural Competency” graduation requirement for the university’s students. The graduation requirement, which was adopted by the law school in April 2021, included courses that were titled “Race, Racism & the Law” and “Business Law from an Antiracist Perspective.”

A CUNY Law professor who has previously complained about the university's alleged anti-Semitism says the entire place is being run by a faculty of 'far left, Marxist lunatics.' The comments come after a shocking commencement speech on May 12 by pro-Palestine law graduate Fatima Mousa Mohammed, who accused Israelis of 'settler colonialism' and called for 'rage' to tackle the 'fascist NYPD'. It was the second year in a row the school - one of the largest in New York City, which receives more than half its funding from government - allowed such pro-Palestine, anti-Israel remarks at the graduation ceremony.

NYC Mayor Eric Adams has slammed a CUNY law graduate for her 'negativity and divisiveness' after she incited anger and slammed 'fascist' cops and military in the US. Yemeni immigrant Fatima Mousa Mohammed gave the graduation speech at City University of New York's law school on May 12 - but unearthed footage has also shown her previously demanding Zionist professors be banned from the college. The controversial clip from the law graduation ceremony inflamed social media - including lawmakers and NYC's mayor, who today bashed her 'words of negativity and divisiveness.' During her time as a student in New York...

Mayor Adams denounced left-wing ideologies in an ultra-patriotic Monday speech in which he also lamented a perceived lack of national pride among young Americans. Speaking at the USS Intrepid Museum’s annual Memorial Day ceremony, the mayor made the critical comments after referencing a Thomas Jefferson quote about the “tree of liberty,” which is commonly interpreted as being about military struggle. “You water the tree of freedom with your blood,” Adams said. “We sit under the shade of that tree of freedom protected from the hot rays of socialism and communism and destruction that’s playing out across the globe.” It was...

A NYC law graduate has used her commencement speech to claim that laws are 'white supremacy' as she attacked American institutions for being 'fascist.' Fatima Mousa Mohammed was chosen by City University of New York's law school to speak at the graduation ceremony on May 12 - but the controversial clip has inflamed people on social media after it was posted online. She blasted the NYPD and the US military as 'fascists' and called on her peers to continue to 'revolution' against capitalism and racism across the country.
