Virginia Governor Glenn Youngkin says Harvard President Claudine Gay and Massachusetts Institute of Technology President Sally Kornbluth should “come under the exact same scrutiny” as University of Pennsylvania President Liz Magill. Magill resigned after testifying before Congress about handling antisemitism on campus. Gay and Kornbluth testified with Magill on Dec. 5. Youngkin speaks to Bloomberg’s Annmarie Hordern in Washington.

    Dr Gay, cheated on her works to get a position, she is full of double standards. … she's arrogant. Wait that is likely what they look for in College presidents

    if this is your view then the bible must be banned on campus. the bible says god will end the Jews. sorry but there is no "context" allowed.
    So will you ban the bible, or is there "context"?

    Stop funding for all the Universities that supports Anti-Semitism and the jihadi terror groups like Hamas. No scholarships for these students. Elect new Presidents for these universities immediately.

    Congress real reason for going after these schools is to get rid of Diversity and Inclusion. Point Blank Period. They want to take over our Higher Education Institutions to send us back to the Jim Crow Era when only the elites would be admitted to these institutions. But Congress hasn't realized that their is far more foreign money in these schools then US Money (wealthy people from other countries often send there kids to the US for education at prestigious universities) Not to Mention Alumni Money which keeps Nepotism Alive. I'm not anti-sematic but when it comes to Students Young Kids I believe that they all deserve protection and shouldn't be subject to attack whether Black, Asian, Indian, Jewish or Palestinian. Congress failed to even acknowledge the two 20 Year Old Palestinian Students who were Shot in Vermont (off-campus) near the University of Vermont. One of whom were paralyzed. We need to preach inclusion for all and stop making everything about one group of people. Congress needs to get thier hands of our Private and Public institutions. To force colleges to fire their Presidents cause they are not following the ideology of MAGA is scary which moves us many step forward to becoming a dictatorship.

    No-one is calling for the genocide of Jews. They are calling for the Jews to stop their genocide of the Palestinians.

    Claudine Gay, We would like you to resign. Your "Context" does not fit basic moral standards.

    Magill is still on campus, this means nothing. I hope students and parents sue the universities and individuals.

    The term " from the river to the see " does not mean killing the Jews. The Palestinians mean that the Ashkenazi Jews either have to return to their original countries, or to accept the return of the Palestinians refugee from abroad and establishing a democratic state. History witnesses that WE MUSLIMS have never butchered Jews as the Europeans did. Actually David J. Wasserstein a professor of, Jewish Historic Studies at Vanderbilt University in Nashville, Tennessee : says that .” In the early seventh century C.E. Judaism was in crisis. In the Mediterranean basin it was battered by legal, social, and religious pressure, weak in numbers and culturally almost non-existent. It was also largely cut off from the Jewry of the Persian Empire, in Babylon, present-day Iraq. The future seemed clear: extinction in the West, decline to obscurity in the East. Salvation came from Arabia. Islam conquered the entire Persian Empire and most of the Mediterranean world. Uniting virtually all the world’s Jews in a single state, it gave them legal and religious respectability, economic and social freedoms, and linguistic and cultural conditions that made possible a major renaissance of Judaism and the Jews. The significance of Islam for Jewry has been interpreted very variously since the middle ages and is a source of controversy to this day

    Republicans banned “To Kill a Mockingbird,” “Charlotte’s Web,” “1984,” and others of quality. They said slavery was a benefit to slaves in providing them job training. They forbade classroom discussion about systemic discrimination in US history. They stacked the Supreme Court to deny women the right to control their reproductive lives. And on and on ….

    It just goes to show how craven and corrupt so much of the business community has become to associate with a political party like that. It’s beneath contempt.

    Sad to see them all become victims of their own bs, but serves everyone involved in this sorry saga (including the hedge fund manager and the alum) right. Degenerate society, degenerate arguments, all of them desecrating the memory of victims of Holocaust. They would abhor each and every one of these narcissistic fools and be disgusted by not just the academics, but the alumni filling cases against them while so many innocents have died and are continuing to die at the hands of extremist warmongers from all sides.
