It's pretty interesting that @FoxNews has removed the stock market ticker from their scroll ever since the markets started tanking every day and dropped 3000 points since Trump took office
Thank you for remembering these heroes @jaketapper

This is very scary stuff. Calling for genocide is ok, unless there is evidence that the threats are actionable? This is from who we are told are 'very smart people'. What???
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.
This took how many weeks and how much pressure to say this?? @Harvard really lost its way as a 'higher' institution
Statement from President Gay: There are some who have confused a right to free expression with the idea that Harvard will condone calls for violence against Jewish students. Let me be clear: Calls for violence or genocide against the Jewish community, or any religious or ethnic group are vile, they have no place at Harvard, and those who threaten our Jewish students will be held to account.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Harvard President Claudine Gay appeared in a Congressional hearing yesterday.
While she expressed her personal opinion against these calls, she repeatedly refused to say that calling for genocide of Jews is against Harvard's Code of Conduct:

One of my favorite memories while at @Spotify was a small event where we had Tony Bennett sing for a crowd of about 50 people. He was 89 years old at the time and you would have never known it. Truly a legend who will be missed.
This is by far my favorite episode yet from @danacarvey and #Flyonthewall @WilliamShatner is truly a legend!
Hey All!
The great @WilliamShatner joins me and @DavidSpade on this week’s #FlyOnTheWall. 💫

In this episode we chat about going to space, comedy analysis, and #SNL stories.😄✌️
Enjoy!
Only problem with his plan is that the States control and fund local education. This is not part of the Federal government oversight. As a Republican, he should know that his agenda is about a smaller Federal government with a deference to State's rights. #fakenews

They are threatening to sue.
It’d be such a shame if people decide to retweet it...
