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.

So nice to get the email from @JetBlue saying points can be redeemed on Hawaiian since I plan to fly there. Unfortunately, a site search brings up no flights where this is possible.

Dear Republicans: The elections are not rigged against you…the fact is no one likes you, your ideas, your morals, your values, your inability to think for yourselves, your politicians, your hatred, your love of guns, your incessant desire to regulate a woman’s body, the number of pedos in your party your church, your narcissistic belief in white Supremacy, your inability to distinguish real news from fake news, your lack of empathy and compassion, your support for a rapist, fraudster, insurrectionist mobster traitor, and more to the point how bad you su** as a human being. It is these reasons why you lose elections. Nobody ever wants you to lead this nation. You can’t even hold the House together…you can’t defend our European friends, and your mere existence is allowed because blue states pay your way. Chew on that, and while your at it, get your 💩together…this country does not exist just for you. It exists for all of us and it exists as a shining example for what the world should be and you keep Fkn it up…try some reflection and you will see that you lose because of you…plain and simple

I don’t get it. Biden has done a fantastic job as president and seen us through some of the toughest times in recent history. The economy is strong, unemployment is at 60-year lows, inflation is tamed. But there are people calling for that youngster to drop out? (I have 6 years on him…) Why aren’t they calling on the guy who’s been indicted in four places and charged 91 times to drop out?
