MONA CHAREN: The Gaza Protests are a Mirror Image of MAGA
WITHIN THE PAST FORTY-EIGHT HOURS, student protesters occupied Hamilton Hall at Columbia University and then were forcibly removed by New York police. I knew that building well when I was undergrad there in the 1970s. Like most structures on campus, it had an air of shabby gentility.

🚨OVERTIME🚨
Thank You, Philly! What an amazing event we had yesterday in the city of Brotherly Love. If you weren’t able to make it in person, you missed a great event. Luckily, the shows we recorded will be hitting the wires soon.
Spoiler alert: The night ended, as it should, with cheesesteak. My order? Onions wit Wiz. And no, I did not choose Jim’s (though that’s the correct answer!), but would have insisted had we hadn’t. Some of us soaked in some tunes at Bob and Barbara’s, while others relaxed with a beverage at the Ritz. But we all ended up, including a few ride or die readers, at Jim’s.
Overtime will return to normal tomorrow, now that I’m back and situated. But remember: we have an event coming up in 13 days. Hope to see you there.
