Quote:On Memorial Day, we remember those who gave their lives in the service of our country to preserve our freedoms.

We ensure those rights and freedoms by operating under a Constitution and a rule of law.

As my colleague Duke wrote earlier, we honor those who gave that last full measure of devotion to protect those freedoms and the rule of law.

Yet, we have folks on the left who attack – and even demonize – that very rule of law upon which we are based. More problematic is that some of those are folks who will be lawyers, judges, and politicians, who think this way.

Watch this and be concerned if you have a college-age family member, or anyone thinking of going to grad school. Heck, this is in high schools now as well, not just colleges and grad schools.

This is Fatima Mohammed, the chosen speaker for CUNY Law School’s commencement. Her speech started relatively normally. Then it went over the edge, calling the law itself evidence of “white supremacy”

“I chose CUNY School of Law for its articulated mission [as one of the] few legal institutions… to recognize that the law is a manifestation of White supremacy that continues to oppress and suppress people in this nation and around the world,” she said. She claimed that they joined the institution so they could work “to lift the facade of legal neutrality and confront the systems of oppression that wreck [sic] violence on them, systems of oppression created to feed an empire with a ravenous appetite for destruction and violence.”

That’s America she’s attacking as the evil empire there.

Mohammed then went on to praise CUNY Law for endorsing the BDS movement and attack Israel for “murdering” people, even as she attack “CUNY Central” for continuing to train and cooperate with the”fascist NYPD” and the military. Mohammed claimed that “daily” “brown and black men are being murdered by the State at Rikers.” Rikers is New York City’s largest jail. She claimed the “murder of black men like Jordan Neely by a white man on the MTA” was “dignified” by politicians like Mayor Eric Adams and Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY).

Mohammed said their “joy” should be the fuel for their “fight” against “capitalism, racism, imperialism, and Zionism around the world.” She then spoke about revolution.

No one person will save the world. No single movement will liberate the masses. Those who brought the ferocity of the violence, those who carry the revolution, the people, the masses, those who brought the ferocity of the violence, those who need our protection. They will carry this revolution. The revolution that lives so loudly despite not being televised. No longer are we going to capitulate to oppressors. No longer are we going to put our hope in their depraved consciousness.

She then quoted Malcolm X and said that they demanded the rights of being a “human being” and that they would bring this “day” into existence “by any means necessary.”

“Greater empires of destruction have fallen before and so will these,” she declared. “So to the class of 2023, the fight begins now.”

What’s perhaps as troubling as her words themselves is how it’s embraced by the audience. You can even see at least one of the officials on stage clapping as well. The problem here is how prevalent this view is, and how many radicalized teachers, colleges, and universities attack the foundations of this country because of their radical leftist views. CUNY is also a state publicly-funded school that is cool with all this. T

his speech was on May 12 but the video didn’t come out before because CUNY realized this would let people know what was going on at their school and they pulled it from Youtube. But then they released it after they were criticized for hiding what she said.

Republicans called out the evil speech.

Democrats of course seem typically silent about this attack on the country, many of them likely agree with it.

We recognize the war when it’s formally declared, when it involves weapons, when it’s overseas. But do we recognize the declared war against us here in our midst, by those that would seek to destroy what we are, who see the very nature of what we are as a nation as evil because it doesn’t meet their flawed, radical views? We fought wars against this ideology when it was overseas. But now it’s here, all around us, waiting to swallow us whole and sowing chaos on every front.

Do we recognize the war when it’s here?

Disgusting speech from a disgusting woman. May her and her mom get arse raped by a pack of feral pigs.

But she doesn’t want to move to a Muslim shite hole? You know, where as a woman she wouldn’t even be allowed to give a speech.

#spoiledBiatch

Shut up - see you next Tuesday.

I try so hard to not allow enough emptiness in my heart for hate to slip in and fill the holes but I truly hate what these people represent. If given the opportunity most of these people will commit horrible atrocities or stand back and allow them to happen, just as they did in Germany.

While I might not hate her and others like her, I wouldn't mourn the passing of any of them.

The scary thing is this is not one speaker going off the reservation— she likely articulating the world view of a sizable segment of the graduating class.

Osama Bin Laden was unavailable to give the commencement speech, so they got her.

Just thankful that somebody had a worse commencement speaker than Rice did.

Judging by the amount of cheers and applause she received throughout, at least the part I could stomach listening to which was about 3-4 minutes, I'd say you're right. There was a white man in the camera shot whose face looked like if he so much as move it would break, he looked mortified.

As was mentioned, these loons are the future power brokers, attorneys, judges, etc to whose mercy (or lack thereof) we may all be subjected in the not too distant future.

Again, we are frucked.

They are already here, and they all aren’t young people. An attorney who has done a lot of work for me over the past 20 years left a successful firm to join what is now a national law firm whose primary mission is to empower women and “other marginalized” communities. There are several large firms out there like that now.

Well, it IS in loony NY, which is trying hard to catch up to crazy California. The only good thing for the rest of us is so many in those two states love that stuff and love their states and likely won't move to infect relatively sane states.

NYC Mayor Eric Adams Slams CUNY Law Grad for ‘Negativity and Divisiveness’ After Calling for Attacks on ‘Fascist’ Police and Military

Quote: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 City, Mohammed was known for being an avid protester and active member of Students for Justice in Palestine.

In March 2022, a clip showed her speaking in front of ‘Friends of the IDF’ in Midtown Manhattan to a crowd of people holding Palestinian flags.

Mohammed said: ‘Demand that Zionist professors are not welcomed on your campus. Demand that Zionist students are not in spaces where Palestinian students are.’

She spoke before a crowd cheered: ‘We don’t want no Zionists here!’

Zionists are people who believe in the rights and protection of a Jewish nation – Israel. Many Jewish people across the world view themselves as Zionists.

Speaking today, Eric Adams said in a tweet: ‘I was proud to offer a different message at this year’s CUNY law commencement ceremony — one that celebrates the progress of our city and country, and one that honors those who fight to keep us safe and protect our freedoms, like my uncle Joe, who died at age 19 in Vietnam while giving his life for our country.

‘We cannot allow words of negativity and divisiveness to be the only ones our students hear.’

During her graduation ceremony, Mohammed repeatedly slammed Israel and linked the Jewish state to oppression and violence, as well as blasting the NYPD and the US military as ‘fascists.’

The future lawyer called on her peers to continue to ‘revolution’ against capitalism, claimed brown prisoners are murdered daily in US jails, and turned on her own university for ‘cooperating with global violence.’

In her graduation address, she said: ‘This is the law school that passed and endorsed BDS on a student and faculty level, recognizing that absent a critical imperialism settler colonialism lens, our work and the school’s mission statement is void of value as Israel continues to indiscriminately rain bullets and bombs on worshipers, murdering the old, the young, attacking the funerals and graveyards as it encourages lynch mobs.

‘We are the student body and faculty that fought back when the investor-focused administration attempted to cross the BDS picket line, saying loud and clear that Palestine can no longer be the exception to our pursuit of justice, that our morality will not be purchased by investors.’

She slammed the college for ‘continuing to cooperate with the fascist NYPD, the military, that continues to train IDF soldiers to carry out that same violence globally.’

Jewish Community Relations NY said in a statement following her CUNY speech: ‘Once again the CUNY Law School commencement speech by the student body elected commencement speaker was incendiary anti-Israel propaganda.

‘This particular commencement speech cast aside the principle of seeking truth in a shameless attempt to vilify CUNY’s constructive engagement with Israel and the New York Jewish community and to denigrate Israel’s supporters on campus while trading in anti-Semitic tropes.

‘We strongly encourage CUNY to revise its guidelines surrounding commencement speeches.’

The Anti-Defamation League said: ‘Graduations should be a place for all — not a time to denigrate students’ identities.’

‘We are appalled to see such an egregious display of hostility toward ‘Zionists’ (which is how many Jews see themselves) and Israel in CUNY Law’s commencement address.

‘This is yet another example of the harm Jewish students experience on campus.’

Her speech, which included multiple references to the Israel Palestine conflict, gartered criticism from swathes of politicians.

Former United States Representative Lee Zeldin said: ‘Raging antisemitism has fully consumed the City University of New York.

‘Until the administration is overhauled and all Jewish students and faculty are welcome again, taxpayer funding must be immediately halted.’

Congressman Mike Lawler added: ‘This is exactly why I am finalizing legislation to strip universities of their funding if they engage in and promote anti-Semitism.

‘CUNY should be ashamed of itself — and should lose any federal funds it currently receives.’

Joel M. Petlin, Superintendent of the Kiryas Joel School District, said: ‘Listen to all 13 minutes of this hateful graduation speech, and you’ll learn what she thinks of the law, police, border security, and how she singles out the only democracy in the Middle East.

‘As a New Yorker, I’m shocked that I subsidized her education.’

Texas Senator Ted Cruz added: ‘City University of New York class day speaker slanders Israel & enthusiastically celebrates antisemitism.

‘Cheers on open borders & releasing violent criminals from jail. And decries the ‘fascist NYPD.’ This is a LAW school. Paid for with tax dollars.’

Another irate viewer online said: ‘CUNY has become the home to hate.’

Mohammed started her speech by saying: ‘I chose CUNY school of law for its articulated mission to be law in the service of human needs.

‘One of very few legal institutions created to recognize that the law is a manifestation of white supremacy that continues to oppress and suppress people in this nation and around the world.’

During the speech, Mohammed heralded the school and her alumni for ‘working to lift the façade of legal neutrality and confront the systems of oppression that wreck violence on them.

‘Systems that were created to feed an empire with a ravenous appetite for destruction and violence.

‘Institutions created to intimidate, bully, and censor, and stifle the voices of those who to resist.’

She thanked CUNY for being ‘one of the only’ universities who made a statement allowing students to organize protests ‘against Israeli settler colonialism.’ She claimed that Israel ‘indiscriminately rains bullets and bombs’ on Palestinians.

Mohammed then rattled off a number of reasons to celebrate her peers – including their aiding of asylum seekers – before adding: ‘We did all of this, in spite of the racism, selective activism, and self serving interests of CUNY central – an institution that continues to fail us.

Before graduating from the CUNY school of law, she attended from John Jay College and got a Bachelor’s in Law and Society with a minor in Human Rights Studies.

She told audience members at the ceremony that she is ‘from the rich soil of Yemen, raised by the humble streets of Queens.’

It’s understood that the clip of Mohammed’s speech was removed from YouTube by the law school, but they then re-released it following a public outcry.

Out of curiosity, she looked like a "white muslim" from the Middle East. Self hate is a mental disease.

Filth

These are democrats.
