QATAR’S WAR FOR YOUNG AMERICAN MINDS:

As senior leaders of Hamas huddle in Qatar, according to a 2022 study from the National Association of Scholars, Qatar today is the largest foreign donor to American universities. The study found that between 2001 and 2021, the petrostate donated a whopping $4.7 billion to U.S. colleges. The largest recipients are some of America’s most prestigious institutions of higher learning. These schools have partnered with the regime to build campuses in Doha’s “education city,” a special district of the capital that hosts satellite colleges for American universities:

  • Since 1997, Qatar has donated more than $103 million to Virginia Commonwealth University for a fine arts campus.
  • Since 2001, Qatar has donated $1.8 billion to Cornell for a medical school.
  • Since 2003, Qatar has donated nearly $700 million to Texas A&M for an engineering campus.
  • Since 2004, Qatar has donated $740 million to Carnegie Mellon University for a computer science campus.
  • Since 2005, Qatar has donated $760 million to Georgetown University for a school of politics.
  • Since 2008, Qatar has donated nearly $602 million to Northwestern University for a school of journalism.

Baby Boomers Have Shifted Right – Millennials, Gen Z Canceling Them Out:

One of the most durable forces shaping the U.S. electorate is that voters tend to lean more Republican as they age. One in six Americans is 65 or over, up from one in eight a decade prior, according to the most recent decennial census. On its face, the shift bodes well for Republicans. Yet its effects have been muted by the size and liberal bent of millennials now approaching middle age, and the more solidly blue partisanship of Gen Z voters just entering the electorate.

MORE MEN ARE TAKING CARE OF THEIR AGING PARENTS, BUT THE LEARNING CURVE IS STEEP:

An estimated 18.7 million men cared for adults, up from 16 million in 2015, according to a 2020 report by AARP and the National Alliance for Caregiving, and about half of caregivers provide care for parents or parents-in-law. Daughters still outnumber sons as caregivers, but the gender gap is shrinking. Caregiving is difficult for everyone, but it can take a particular emotional toll on sons because they tend to keep things to themselves, don’t seek support and feel uncomfortable providing personal care.
