The article describes efforts by top Republicans to penalize U.S. universities that allow pro-Palestinian protests on their campuses. House Majority Leader Steve Scalise outlined plans to revoke the accreditation of universities that don’t suppress criticism of Israel, potentially jeopardizing billions in federal funding. This push, coordinated with the pro-Israel lobby group AIPAC, would be pursued under a second Trump administration. The offensive targets universities like Harvard, the University of Pennsylvania, and Columbia University, which have faced controversy over their handling of student protests. Critics argue that this is an attack on academic freedom and could have severe constitutional implications.
Blatantly biased journalism. Nowhere in the video does anyone say anything about punishing colleges for “pro-Palestinian protests” or for “criticism of Israel.” He specifically refers to colleges that are violating the civil rights of their students.
Islamist funding of elite US schools is well documented. It has also been well documented that the college encampments were encouraged and funded by outside agitators (specifically the Iranian regime), and many of the participants weren’t even students.
This is about forcing schools to be places of learning and dialogue for everyone, not breeding grounds for anarchy and activism.
Ah, we finally see the cancel culture that republicans have been whining and crying about for a decade and, to the absolute surprise of no one, it’s coming from the republicans.
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.
The constitution? Lol, that’s so 20 years ago.
How dare they protest genocide. We must unleash the full wrath of anti-free-speech policies while whining about fact-checks of blatant misinformation being anti-free-speech
If you think the college protests are anti-genocide, you haven’t been paying attention.
I was told I wouldn’t be fact checked and that I get to keep my Swingline stapler…
Translation: Republicans don’t want protests contained to one place. Or, they believe out of sight, out of mind. You can’t legislate moral positions.
Unless it’s a protest they do then it has to be seen by all :/
You can’t legislate moral positions.
*The republican party of the last 80 years*: “You fuckin what?”
Whoa whoa whoa, I thought Republicans were all in favor of zero censorship…?
They are. That’s why Lonnie had to buy that shitty website and kick a bunch of Left-leaning accounts off. And jump around like an idiot. Don’t you feel your speech is protected yet?
(shut up, it’s sarcasm)
This is just a line item on their war on public education. They are always looking to
scrape back any money that could go in their pocketssave the taxpayers money.Palestinian can suck it, respectfully.
