The presidents of @Harvard, @MIT, and @Penn were all asked the following question under oath at today’s congressional hearing on antisemitism:
Does calling for the genocide of Jews violate [your university’s] code of conduct or rules regarding bullying or harassment?
The answers they gave reflect the profound moral bankruptcy of Presidents Gay, Magill and Kornbluth.
Representative @EliseStefanik was so shocked with the answers that she asked each of them the same question over and over again, and they gave the same answers over and over again.
In short, they said:
It ‘depends on the context’ and ‘whether the speech turns into conduct,’ that is, actually killing Jews.
This could be the most extraordinary testimony ever elicited in the Congress, certainly on the topic of genocide, which to remind us all is:
“the deliberate killing of a large number of people from a particular nation or ethnic group with the aim of destroying that nation or group”
The presidents’ answers reflect the profound educational, moral and ethical failures that pervade certain of our elite educational institutions due in large part to their failed leadership.
Don’t take my word for it.
You must watch the following three minutes. By the end, you will be where I am.
They must all resign in disgrace.
If a CEO of one of our companies gave a similar answer, he or she would be toast within the hour.
Why has antisemitism exploded on campus and around the world?
Because of leaders like Presidents Gay, Magill and Kornbluth who believe genocide depends on the context.
To think that these are the leaders of Ivy League institutions that are charged with the responsibility to educate our best and brightest.
On the bright side, our congressional leaders deserve accolades for showing tremendous leadership and moral clarity in their statements, by the questions they asked, and the respectfulness with which they conducted the hearing.
It was a masterclass of how our government and democracy should operate.
If you have time, please watch the entire hearing. Throughout the hearing, the three behaved like hostile witnesses, exhibiting a profound disdain for the Congress with their smiles and smirks, and their outright refusal to answer basic questions with a yes or no answer.
Hey Ari, if you define "much" a bit more precisely, I am willing to take the other side of that. Yes, some things RFK said is likely not true, but calling it "much being nonsense" is not precise enough for a bet! Let's do it. Define the things that are nonsense in your opinion and I take the other side. We can take an independent custodian.

NEW - Brazil's lawmakers are poised to vote on a contentious bill aimed at censoring alleged "disinformation" next week.
The legislation, presented by a Communist Party member, was pushed through at speed by the government led by Lula da Silva.

We devised a new way to rewrite any partial differential equation in a Schrodinger form, so we can solve this with quantum simulation - we call this Schrodingerisation 😀 A short version for the idea https://t.co/FZ2o3sOODJ and a longer technical version https://t.co/ZNrxwhx77F
2. So how did Pfizer arrive at 95% efficacy?
Of the 170 participants, ALL tested positive for Covid, but:
—162 received a Placebo
— 8 received 2 doses of mRNA
Divide 162/170 = 95% efficacy (according to Pfizer) which is how they met the criteria for EUA approval.
Lula extinguiu a secretaria responsável por coordenar a adesão do Brasil à OCDE, nos afastando de vez da rota do desenvolvimento e isolando o país das melhores práticas internacionais.
Na infinita soberba do PT, os países que deram certo não têm nada a nos ensinar.

@MonicaWaldvogel Eu não sou "o bolsonarismo". Tenho nome, profissão, e sou dona da minha história. Não estou aqui para agradar quem quer me enfiar em uma carapuça ideológica porque sou mulher ou porque sou negra. Eu escolho quem quero ser e onde estar. E não há nada mais libertador do que isso!
