"Columbia University’s president, Nemat “Minouche” Shafik, said in a memo to police earlier Thursday that more than 100 people were occupying the area.
“I have determined that the encampment and related disruptions pose a clear and present danger to the substantial functioning of the University,” the memo said.
Shafik said the demonstrators were trespassing, refusing to disperse and damaging campus property, among other violations.
In a statement Thursday, Shafik said she authorized police to clear the encampment “out of an abundance of concern” for safety on campus"

You never know when one of those tents might attack!
Trained attack tents! Just waiting to ambush people from their camouflage green hiding
Has anyone asked the tents if they denounce Hamas?

For a Democrat, he’s saying and doing awfully fasc things.
Then again, for a cop, which he still is and always will be, he’s exhibiting about the standard amount of fascism.
I’m pretty convinced he’s a Democrat because he knew he wouldn’t be elected if he was a Republican.
Yeah, probably. Still doesn’t explain why the Dem leadership went all in on him and his fraudulent “crime is out of control and only a cop can fix it” narrative, though…
