Long, long overdue. The American taxpayer should not fund Hitler youth programs.
Congress members call on DeVos to deny taxpayer funds for BDS studies on campus
By: JNS, December 20, 2019:Eight Republican members of Congress on Thursday called on U.S. Education Secretary Betsy DeVos to ensure that taxpayer funds do not go towards Middle East Studies’ centers at colleges and universities that support boycotting Israel.
In a letter to DeVos, the congressional members express alarm over Middle East Studies National Resource Centers (NRCs) allegedly misusing funds under Title VI of the Higher Education Act of 1965 to support the anti-Israel BDS movement, consisting of, but not limited to, prohibiting conferences and other events involving Israelis or Israeli institutions; lectures by Israeli state officials or Israeli academics; and study-abroad programs in Israel, including writing recommendations for students looking to partake in them.
Story continues below advertisementThe letter acknowledges the U.S. Department of Education deeming that the Duke-University of North Carolina Consortium for Middle East Studies misused federal funding in hosting an anti-Semitic and anti-Israel conference in March.
The members of Congress stated that “academic boycotts of Israel defy the statutory purposes of Title VI programs. Directors, faculty and staff of Title VI-funded NRCs should not be permitted to implement an academic boycott of any country under their purview.”
“It is the Department’s responsibility to ensure that taxpayer-funded NRCs are implementing programs in good faith with the statutory purposes and requirements of Title VI,” they continued. “We encourage the Department to continue robust oversight efforts of NRCs’ compliance with Title VI.”
The letter was signed by Reps. Glenn Grothman (R-Wis.), Chuck Fleischmann (R-Tenn.), Doug Lamborn (R-Colo.), Mark Meadows (R-N.C.), Elise Stefanik (R-N.Y.), Chris Stewart (R-Utah), Randy Weber (R-Texas) and Ron Wright (R-Texas).
Grothman recently offered an amendment to address this issue, but it failed in committee along party lines.

Interesting pic. Which carpenters might have made their journeyman’s piece with these farm chairs (Bauernstuhl)?
Interestingly also outhouses have this
heart motif. But all Jews in concentration
camps didn’t have this nice and “special” service.

But one could sum up by saying that Hitler and his comrades flushed themselves down the toilet. No one will miss them.
How much of the ignorant bds supporters wear Levi Strauss jeans ?
Meaning: if you wanna boycott, Than don’t use any Israeli product ! And maybe there should be a disclaimer on Israeli cancer cures and medicines stating: especially NOT for antisemites
Strauss was a Bavarian Jew who created world
fashion from indigo-dyed riveted work trousers.
Whether it served “femininity” when women
wore trousers, is a legitimate question. Nail
polish and lipstick also Jewish “inventions”.
And the contraception pill. All created to “fool”
biology. This is taking revenge now. On the other
hand: How many men have taken tight jeans and cosmetics as a reason to impregnate a woman?
In this respect, Jews have influenced the course
of history without anyone attributing this to them!
The original lipstick was red colouring ancient Egyptian prostitutes used to indicate their profession. Nothing like modern lipstick.
Interesting, then let’s say Jews commercialized it, cause “trousers aren’t trousers and lipstick isnt lipstick”.

Opponents of the sick “gender” theory sometimes refer to the revolutionary Jew Von Sachs. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Julius_von_Sachs
One example is the evolutionary biologist Kutschera (Harvard), who has dedicated all his books to Von Sachs, and whose next book on “Replacement Migration and Climate Hysteria” (2020) I eagerly await.

Relatively unknown to this day is where the “American” T-shirt comes from.
It is assumed that it comes from the British sailor culture.
you live in a small and ugly mirko
Marc is that you again?
Only 8 comments….
No felix……marc is now “mirko”, still searching for a precious “up-vote”…..

No worries, great day too
PS edited original comment

DEMONRAT PARTY = Insanity run amuck
The ONLY way Democrats will win anything in 2020 is IF they allow ILLEGAL ALIENS to vote and a lot of counties and States ARE allowing it, folks. Look at NYC and other major ‘sanctuary cities’ who NOW allow ILLEGALS driver’s licenses. That is all you need to VOTE if you are NOT a legal citizen of the USA. SO, ILLEGALS ARE STEALING YOUR VOTE.
CONTACT YOUR POLITICIAN IN YOUR AREA AND TELL THEM “NO ILLEGAL ALIENS”.
If you see something illegal, say something. In fact, CONSERVATIVES need to go and serve at the Board of Elections in some capacity!
Now if only Idiot in Chief Trudeau would do something like that.
What am I thinking; he is so up islam’s butt that he would be funding BDS if he could get away with it. After all, he wants shira compliant laws. You can’t say boo about muslims but Jews, Buddhists, Shintos, Christians and so on are fair game.
Trudeau is no idiot…he is on muslim payroll…as many of our politicians are
She does so little…. This would certainly help as well as DEFUNDING QUEER STUDIES and other useless “studies” and ideally turn over the FEDERAL STUDENT LOAN system to the private sector. Common Core is still in place too…
nothing a good old revolution wouldn’t fix
I THOUGHT it was against “policy” to support ANTI-AMERICAN ACTIVITIES!!!!!!!
STOP funding all colleges that support DISCRIMINATION against Constitutional Supporters!! “free speech”
Yet more alarming proof that Betsy Devos, Trump’s chosen Secretary of the Dept of Education, was not qualified, does not follow the Dept’s rules and regulations and is a danger to America’s school children. She was in fact a wealthy hardcore Common Core activist who harassed school districts and the legislature of her state to force it’s implementation.
