DISPATCHES FROM THE EDUCATION APOCALYPSE: Jason Arday Resigns From Cambridge.

Meanwhile, his autobiography is set to be released in six days. Will it get pulled? Heavily revised with a surprise ending? For the moment no one is saying one way or the other.

A representative of Simon & Schuster, which has so far stood by the book, told The New York Times on Wednesday that the publisher had no comment beyond the statement about Arday it released last week, citing “the professionalism and integrity he has brought to every stage of the publication.”

Simon & Schuster ought to be shredding these into pulp but will they? Stand by to find out.

John Podhoretz also believes Arday’s book will likely be pulped:

Simon and Schuster was releasing his book next week. I assume the firm will now pulp it. https://t.co/jOKKT15oaN

But who knows, perhaps it’s onward and upward for Arday?

Endorsed. His credentials are impeccable.

On a more serious note, will Cambridge use the Arday fiasco to genuflect on what happened? Nahh, probably not, but you never know:

Or it is the salvation of higher education.

That would be up to Cambridge. Cambridge and the rest of the academic whores. https://t.co/FwQI5UDIop

At what point does it become official Democrat policy that American Jews don't belong in the Democrat party?

I think we're basically there, right?

MOST RADICAL – SO FAR:  Abdul El-Sayed Is Now the Most Radical Candidate in America.

A TON? SO, 4, MAYBE 5 KARENS? MAYBE ONLY 2, THE WAY THE NEW SOCIALISTS LOOK:  Mike Rowe Triggered a Ton of People With His Lengthy Post About Socialism.

THE TRUTH IS THEY HATE HUMANS:  The Insidious Population Reduction Narrative Disguised as ‘Sustainability Science’.

THIS IS NEWS?  THEY OWNED A FORMER PRESIDENT:  Muslim Brotherhood is quietly infiltrating US schools, politics: Expert.

PARDON HER GRAMMAR. SHE FORGOT ABSOLUTE. AS IN, YOU ABSOLUTE LAWN FLAMINGOS:  Stop Scaremongering About “Pitbulls” You Lawn Flamingoes.

YES, HE IS:  Enemy of the People.

IS THAT THEY THINK THEY KNOW A LOT OF THINGS THEY DON’T:  The problem with ‘experts’.

IT’S ALWAYS AGITPROP:  PrSM literally just started full rate production and I flat out don’t believe the ATACMS claim given how few targets would be in range of it (same thing that limits its usefulness in the Pacific.) And Tomahawk numbers are similarly hearsay and an aging system besides; JASSM and JASSM-ER plus Marintime Strike Tomahawk will be the flagship weapons.

X-CANCEL.

SO, THAT’S A THING:  Inside the Coke-Fueled Rise and Fall of VICE. the company didn’t die because of investors, sexual harassment charges, or going ‘woke’ — it died because our founder stopped believing in the product that made us famous.

SYSTEMS ARE COMPLICATED. POLITICIANS ARE SIMPLE:  China attacked the sparrows, Britain will attack the cows.

BUT OF COURSE:

This is wild. Howard Bryant, the writer trying to smear Sophie Cunningham as "anti-trans and anti-black," was arrested for choking his white wife, then assaulting a police officer, and then blamed his arrest on — wait for it — racism. https://t.co/YBTmVpY39n pic.twitter.com/NnNi0LIzEJ

JIM TREACHER: Jon Stewart Is a Good Kapo.

“The Jewish community and Israel are not the same thing, brother man.”

Don’t tell Fetterman. Tell Mamdani. Tell that other terrorist who just won in Michigan. They don’t make that distinction.

Yeah, they’ll smile to Jon Stewart’s face because he’s a useful idiot for them, but they don’t see the difference between him and any Israeli. They’ll line him up against the wall with the rest of the Jews they want to kill.

John Fetterman is against terrorism. Jon Stewart is against getting yelled at by his comrades. He’ll lose his social standing if he doesn’t say what he’s supposed to say.

Just by way of comparison, here is Jon Stewart back in April, talking to… Can you guess?

Jon Stewart gushes over Graham Platner, "The entire set up is somewhat Disney-esque. Well, first of all, there's, kind of, always the fable of a Mr. Smith Goes to Washington, a kind of, you know, an honest man who has real ideals facing off against a corrupt system that is fueled… pic.twitter.com/UTU692vltF
