Watch now | Eddie discusses two pressing issues: Senator Schumer's decision to support a continuing resolution to keep the government open and the situation surrounding Columbia University and Mahmoud Khalil. Eddie expresses frustration with the Democratic Party's lack of fighting spirit and urges them to articulate their values clearly. He also critiques the federal government's actions against Khalil, emphasizing the importance of distinguishing between legitimate critique of Israel and antisemitism. Eddie calls for a defense of higher education against political pressures and an active opposition to the current administration's policies.
I’m just dumbfounded that our Democrats can’t seem to get it together on any level. If they aren’t up to the challenge then they should be replaced. I’m 77 years old and my senior friends and I are still on the battlefield!
there is alot of anger out there and its coming from democrats against leadership..its one thing to say "yes the republicans have all the power"..but its quite another for there to be no fight for their voters...its sends a signal that those in the democratic party are fighting for themselfs and the party...but not the people :(
Thank you so much for your wrap ups Sir! They are so informative and helpful to me. Senate just passed the CR bill - 84 to 16. Exactly, “Fight!!” So disgusted with Schumer and his last minute capitulation. 😡
I appreciate your rant so much. Rants need to be honored by the way, particularly when they’re speaking truth to power. We need more ranting actually we need more out loud ranting. We need to be ranting at Schumer and his minions. We need to be ranting at Columbia For taking a knee to the Trump musk regime. It is tempting to give up as many seem to be doing. I am with you all the way, sir we cannot give up we have to fight. Because what else is there?
Sharing your explanation on every platform and asking everyone to share this every where. Americans are protesting in the streets but I don't see it in the news. Today, there are Veteran protests in parts of the country but will it be in the mainstream media remains to be seen. We are not seeing our Democrat representatives fighting for us. We have a few thankfully speaking out who happen to be Black but where are the others? The citizens, students, teachers, and everyone who sees what's happening are the ones fighting answering the call without help from our politicians who swore an oath to work for us.
"Arlington National Cemetery’s website removes links for educational material, notable graves & walking tours related to Black, Hispanic, and women vets to meet Trump’s & Hegseth’s no-diversity language orders."
i mean what can a person say about this? its just simply evil at this point :(
I like what the our famous General Anthony McAuliffe, acting commander of the US 101st Airborne said to the Germans about surrendering at Bastogne. “Nuts.” One word and he is famous in infamy. That’s what Columbia Univ President should write to the Trump regime. “NUTS.”
Sir, I have read your book, listened to you speak with us, and seen you angry; this is the time I see the anguish on your face. The look you give us in this brief video allows us to see how much you care. As an educator, I feel for my students and wonder what the world of education will bring to them. They have not been taught the art of the fight. My prayer is that they say enough and take up mantles that protect the world they will live in. Thank you for your wisdom. Have a peaceful weekend.
I think few people understand what you communicate is because what’s happening is so profound. Trump and Elon have no fear in transforming the country because they will have complete control when finished. No elections, freedoms, protests, participation, financials, health care, legal system, etc. A society based on ethnic superiority, wealth, and class. It’s sad the congress is so short sighted and don’t understand they will have no role in the transformed country.
As you say here..if you vote for this bill then you are complicit with the GOP...and the dem voters will damn you with the GOP :( although it seems 3 are voting for ,and only 8 dem senators have yet to declare, the rest have all declared they will vote "No"!
Thanks.
Democracy is NOT the form of government in the United States.
White Supremacy is
Eddie, it’s not a Trump administration. This is a Trump regime. We need to get used to referring to it as such.
So-called “checks and balances” ? Thanks, Eddie. You articulate exactly what I’m feeling.
Dr. Eddie,
There’s an old saying, “If you don’t stand for something, you’ll fall for anything,”-unknown
The Democrats are falling for everything the Republicans throw to them.
The Democrats must define their purpose in order to reach their desired destination.
We can’t continue to fight if don’t know what we are fighting for!
ah yeah...you think as i did, but got there first..great minds think alike :)
Jon,

I'm coming up on 74 and out there too. Just my thinking, Mary.

Yes. The madness is apparently contagious.
Bless you, Eddie.

Your analysis reminded me of some of Timothy Snyder's points on "Anti-semitism" and anti-semitism.https://open.substack.com/pub/snyder/p/antisemitism-and-antisemitism?r=l9vd4&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=false
