Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) and GOP lawmakers were heckled by protesters at George Washington University, where they toured the pro-Palestinian encampment that still stands despite repeated calls from the university for its removal.
It’s been more than 50 years since Columbia University became the site of student demonstrations amid unrest over the Vietnam War, but the spirit of protest on campus remains strong.
Late Tuesday night, dozens of protestors sieged Hamilton Hall—the iconic site of numerous student occupations over the course of history—and unfurled a banner to reveal the building’s new name by protestors: “Hind’s Hall.” The designation was in honor of six-year-old Hind Rajab, who was killed by Israeli troops in Gaza.

Some very clever satire here, as that is Gary Petersen but is a reworked picture from another Trump artist, Al Manica.
Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton claimed that it is legitimate to attempt to prosecute Barack Obama over his acts as President if Trump's bizarre immunity claim fails at the Supreme Court.
Another day and another effort to defend Donald Trump from any and all prosecutions and criminal acts.
Q: Attorney General Paxton, on the off chance that the Supreme Court comes back and does not say presidents are immune from official acts, do you think your administration would pursue charges against, say, Barack Obama for the drone strikes and murdering of three American citizens?
Paxton: Yeah, so every state's different.
