Columbia students: protesting peacefully and testing boundaries, exercising free speech
Columbia President: Let’s call NYPD and arrest them all
Columbia Staff: wtf?
Mike Johnson: How can I make this worse? I know, force the president of the school to resign for not doing enough, and call in the National Guard

The full title:
Speaker Mike Johnson booed at Columbia University as he calls for president to quit unless pro-Palestine protests quelled
Fuck both of them @givesomefucks 😂
