Let's check her honesty. Someone setup a table at Harvard with signs that say: "From the Mississippi to the sea all blacks must leave". Technically, she should allow this.
Make it happen!!!
But it doesn’t rhyme. Maybe ‘From the Mississippi to the sea all blacks must leave’?
change it to slave see how the world burst into flames @@DanthecigarMan
Trump publicly said "Mexicans are rapists," did he not? Yet 70 million people voted for him.
Thx! Fixed@@DanthecigarMan
Can you imagine what the reaction would be if a university president told Black and Latino students to be extremely mindful of their surroundings on campus because their safety could not be guaranteed?
She admits she has heard the " Intifada" chants - but she has done exactly NOTHING in response to that. Not ONE student or Professor has faced any disciplinary measure of any kind. Say what you will, but that implies tacit approval of it , thats what any actual adult realizes .
So she should ignore the first amendment of the constitution?
@@ewanmccartney8469usska Sar tan sey Juda SAR TAN AEY JUDA HINA Chaahiye! Alhamdulillah!!!🤲🤲🤲
calling for the death of people draws the line .. wow , your special…
Intifada refers to a uprising against oppression. It has nothing to do with a genocide against the Jews.
@@koreyb projecting
Many accepted applicants have rejected Harvard in light of recent events. I applaud them.
they are toopid hahah
🤣
So have donors, and they too deserve great applause.
As Democrat I’m very disappointed with the Harvard President’s lack of candor and answers. All the questions by Republican congresswoman Elise were quite fair in this clip. A school administrator should not be on the fence about explicit or implicit calls for genocide being a violation of school policy.
thank you for saying that. it's nice to see a Democrat admitting that.
Jews traditionally discriminate against blacks so this type of retributive conduct against whites by Claudine is expected.
Provide facts to back up your claim or get out.
And we can provide a log history of Jews standing up for and with black civil rights, however
I am a republican and I agree with you 100%.
How can you be a high ranking official anywhere, and not know how to give a yes or no answer to anything? When they won't give that answer, you know they're guilty of whatever they're being accused of.
Right ! No polygraph needed...
Exactly 💯 💯 💯 THEY all do this when they are called before Congress. They never answer YES OR NO QUESTIONS.
I would guess that if she answered truthfully Rep. Stefanik's questions, Harvard might think they could face a class action suit by Jewish students at Harvard. It's a bit like the testimony of Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, who danced around the definition of a "woman". For her to answer truthfully would potentially render her unable to rule on a transgender or other suit brought before the Supreme Court in the future.
Because some questions are so vague or complex, that an answer cannot be made with a simplistic 'yes' or 'no' without more information. The best response to them is "it depends, it could be yes or no depending on the context". It ain't hard to understand for anyone with half a brain. These kinds of questions are usually designed by the question maker that way to trick people.
She's black and female at a woke institution
All this women did was recite the guideline and policies regarding protocol on certain issues. She basically danced around the room for every answer. Why didn’t she just send a pamphlet stating these policies to represent her?! Could have saved herself a dance, and she was a horrible dancer.
Jews traditionally discriminate against blacks so this type of retributive conduct against whites by Claudine is expected.
such a pamphlet obviously must have nazi symbology for the extermination of jews
Black pity hires never have anything original to say
@@YungQueef Kringe Gene Pierrier?
Exactly what I was thinking. Sounded like she just memorized Harvard's pamphlet.
I'm a Liberal, but on this issue the Right has got it correct.
question- are you a gen X (or older) liberal? we seem to be the only ones who remember 9/11 and are thus tuned to not give terrorism any quarter under any guise
What a joke. This system of allowing people to purposefully not answer questions and just spew their own statements is ridiculous. If they refuse to answer the question they should be held accountable.
I agree 100%. Contempt of Congress is actually a crime.
She is in contempt
Contempt of congress if testifying under oath!
This is utterly ridiculous. She is not willing to admit to being wrong?
Its extremely common In the Black community to not take responsibility for anything fyi. Like for exampel about 92% of all racism conducted in America wordwise and actionwise. But Nobody cares.
Because she's not ! Simple.
These students are inciting violence!
It's pretty much a death threat. We all see what this type of rhetoric leads to and every student should feel safe on campus.
Who the HELL said she is wrong!!!? Do YOU understand freedom of speech!!? I think all these people are idiots but freedom of speech is not to be infringed under ANY circumstances! Get it!!?
@@richardsarabi2064u can say go killsombody but if they do u go to jail
So yes your right but stupid and priviat groups can limit speach but not political affiaiations. If they allow any assembly on the property.. which they do .. ck the supream courts rulings under political speach...
look at harvard president smirk, disgrace. those people think they are above everyone else. thank you elise stefanik for talking to those people like they should be talked to.
Elise Stefanik, thank you for exposing corruption. It is their responsibility to protect against hate, discrimination and calls for violence.
It’s so frustrating to hear them NOT answering questions.
Imagine not having a resounding disapproval of genocidal rhetoric. These were the same clownish College people that drove conservatives off campus because conservatives were too edgy for them. But now they are defending the bad guys. The hypocritical mental gymnastics of these College people are astonishing.
Her answers were rehearsed. :(
Notice the similarity of her answers and attitude comparing with the director of FBI, Christopher Wray's. It seems like they came out from the same school. Whatta joke!!!
This Harvard Dean must be fired for her support and admission of hate crimes against Jewish Students and supported this harassment by a lack of accountability to protect all Jewish Students at this University.
University students must take a pledge of allegiance to Israel before starting classes.
@@sensorycircuits1338 A pledge to USA. Don't be sarcy.
@@sensorycircuits1338 That is a better choice than students openly supporting terr 0r1st groups and campaigning for their right to exist as terr 0r1sts.
@@sidnotvicious8442 No, a pledge to Israel. They are the spiritual fatherland of our Great Christian Nation & know what is best for us.
She can’t give ONE honest true answer , shameful and disgusting
Quick note: She could've told us how Harvard is penalizing students without revealing any details about specific individuals. Ask yourself, "why were we denied that information?"
Because no one was punished.
Bingo! And we don't even need a Harvard education to connect those dots.
Absolutely! I was just thinking the same thing.
Because nothing will be done to punish those that called for genocide. Because only when it is Jews does context matter
Exactly! She wasn't asked to reveal anything about any particular student, just what actions had been taken. The answer is obviously "none", but she didn't want to say that.
RIP Harvard reputation
Amen
It has a NEW reputation 😞 wokest college in America where Free Speech that isn't woke goes to die! SO SAD 😢
She should be fired NOW ,couldn’t answer yes or no questions with honesty, embarrassment to Harvard !
I’ve always wondered what would happen if if they just spent the rest of the session demanding a yes or no answer to the question before moving on to anything else. It would be a very interesting standoff.
Stop funding this University!!! Fire her and others like her !!!
Me too. They would probably go on in circles for hours 😂 .
No, she shouldn't. The issue is far more complex, and maybe you should look up those terms "in depth" and see the variety of ways they are used.
How in the World did this woman get to be President of Harvard? What a Piece of WORK!
GUESS!!!
1 guess
Well she check certain DEI boxes
@@christopherbice862 Actually, we need to grant two guesses, maybe three if we add the LGBTQ thing into it. We got A whole lot o' intersectionality goin' on here.
How did criminals become president like trump answer that
Easy to hate the president of Harvard. Harvard has sunk to a new low. They are sickening
University students must take a pledge of allegiance to Israel before starting classes.
Look who’s the president… it is no wonder
@@florcalizo-vencer9138 Explain?
@@sensorycircuits1338What legal authority does a university have to do this. Because you say so? Ludicrous!
Harvard is not a university but a school of learning dullness
Calling for the murder of Jews is not harassment and threatening? Wow. Double standard.
Yes that is harassment but ain't they watching horrific acts Israel is committing in Gaza? Ain't Israel anti-Semitic then cause Arabic is semitic language too!
The number one hate crime in America is that the establishment offers taxpayers no choice other than to pay for the actual military obliteration of Arab populations. All based on fraudulent pretexts that cloak geopolitical agendas. FACT.
@@Loveofnature918are you watching horrific acts that Hamas commits in Gaza AND Israel? Or since it’s exactly them presenting you the content you believe everything they say?
@@xrmr What horrific acts are you talking about? Do you mean anything real or only the rampant vile propaganda?
@@xrmr Are you referring to the beheaded babies hoax, the mass rape hoax, the breast cut off hoax, the baby ripped from the womb hoax? Which horrific fictitious act are you referring to? How about the highway of death where over 70 cars were taken out with hellfire missiles, many of them carrying Israeli civilians, slain by their own country and blamed on Hamas? No chance this doesn't get deleted, but learn something about the conflict before you carry water for the greatest crime of our time.
three times in this 5 minute clip, she was asked what she was going to do, and she answered three times that PERSONALLY it was abhorrent to her; the implication that as Harvard Pres she will do nothing.
There was a time when the president of a college or university would be an intelligent and respectable person.
Way to Go Elise !! What you said at the end to her, I so hope comes to fruition. She needs to go !!
I am afraid that - sadly - she will not be removed. There is a long tradition in these "ivy league" universities - just before the beginning of WWII their students, Harvard first, named Hitler the greatest man of the world, well ahead of Albert Einstein at the peak of his popularity...
"Miss Stefanik you are recognized for 5 minutes" - and BOOM she did all that in 5 minutes!! respect
She is the pure definition of a DEI hire by Harvard.
Yes, Israel will be sending her a TON of money.
Affirmative action has destroyed our education system, and almost all of our institutions.
I found that type of speech abhorrent, hahahaha🙃
UNQUALIFIED too!
1000% CORRECT
I'm glad Stefanik brought up the hypothetical of calls for violence against Black people because WE DAMN WELL KNOW that AA hire "President of Harvard" would certainly not want her race to be targeted.
Garbage leadership of our youth and young minds! She needs to go and has no accountability
We need to bring back school prayer. Also, university students must take a pledge of allegiance to Israel before starting classes.
She's a Communist.
The greatest threat to free speech in America is the Israel Lobby.
They want to criminalize criticism of Israel. That's un-American.
It'll all be forgotten tomorrow, and the same socialism will continue on in our University's
I can't believe the best schools in our country are allowing this to go on it's not only sickening its a warning that if we don't do something history is about to repeat itself and that is unacceptable.
Can't believe this woman is President of Harvard!!
I can 😢
Corruption bought these kind of cheap people as president.
I bloody well can.
Backed by Obama. That should tell you EVERYTHING. They wanted to fire her and he “made a call”
“We embrace a commitment to free expression” as long as it is not aimed at us.
Talk about stonewalling, she should be fired. Bravo to Ms. Stefanik for holding her feet to the fire.
Stefanik voted to keep George Santos in congress. That shows you where her sense of right and wrong is. She has no moral compass. She is not qualified to sit in judgement on Claudine Gay.
My daughter was recruited by Harvard. I am so glad that I couldn't afford to send her there!
hmmm
Smart decision!!
uhmmm
Thank God for people like Elise
Big thumbs up to Ms. Stefanik....she don't play! She handled this Harvard idiot like a bad egg! Great job! All business, not playing around with word salads! Outstanding!
She is only speaking words but it seems no actions have been taken.
Could you imagine being a Jewish student on the campus of Harvard and people could outwardly call for the genocide of your people and not be thrown out of that University??? I can’t imagine what those students have to go through.
harvard..the school that revoked an acceptance from someone b/c of a tweet they made 4 years before they applied. tweets...LOL
Yeah - this is unreal! Unbelievable!
They dont go through anything they should be send to rwanda as thier promise land.
I can pretty well imagine what it meant to be a child in occupied Ireland and what it means to be a child in occupied Palestine.
Can you imagine a group of guys who call themselves god favourite and have a claim to watever they think its their god given right.
Rep. Stefanik asked for verbs, e.g. "what has Harvard DONE to discipline students calling for genocide," and President Gay just kept giving her adjectives, e.g. "Harvard has ROBUST disciplinary policies yada yada..."
What is really hillarious is that, Gay is doing just what would get a student (eventually) kicked out of Harvard.
Excellent line of questioning congresswoman . Harvard president’s answers speaks volumes of how morally bankrupt they are
"I'm not going to get into details about personnel matters." Translation? She is lying.
It seems like she was coached by Christopher Wray. He always deflects or he can't answer due to an ongoing investigation.
That Harvard woman should be FIRED. Then, she should be brought up on charges.
She either got fired or resigned, months ago. Your comment is only a month old, lol.
Honestly I think this one thing pushed a lot of critical Dems to the right.
This is the President of Harvard????? Wow My have the mighty have fallen
It was either her or Tootie from Facts of Life.
And what are your academic bon fides?
@@petertheore668 Good question. Clearly this story is not about Claudine Gay; it's about alan. (BTW, it's bona fides.)
Thank you, Congressman Stefanik! You are my heroine!
Congress is “Israeli-occupied territory.”
The US govt. seems to work more for Israel than for the American people.
She really is a great Congresswoman, she just swats away the socialists, so good to watch.
You need to raise your standards. This useless windsock was one of Santos' staunchest supporters. Great judgement displayed there. Also a staunch supporter of the PAB45. She has been, and continues to be, on the wrong side of history every day. In every decision. She's my NY21 Representative. I speak from experience.👎👎
Thank you Congresswoman Stefanik!
So then if someone at Harvard calls for the elimination of African Americans or Asian Americans or white Americans or Hispanic Americans is okay with the president
Exactly. That literally should have been her follow up.
The Harvard President understands your truthful logic, but she is caught up in her Marxist views that cannot embrace truthful logic and so she takes us on rabbit trails of deception.
It is everywhere ELSE 😢
Wrong, the next question should have been ' Will you ignore the first amendment when considering applicants?'.
@@samanthawilliams5237Has Elise ever called out racist statements of her favorite president?
Advocating for murder of jews at a College. This is terrible.
She is going to wait until someone dies, then she will go into the ROBUST directions of 'apologies' and "OOPS".
The Congresswoman has a backbone, unlike some university presidents.
Yes, the same kind of 'backbone' that Joseph McCarthy had.
so much of a backbone she had to run to New York to beg trump to endorse her rather than anything she had done herself and by the way Intifada does not call for the genocide of anybody it means to shake off your oppressor. Funny they never speak up for other forms of racism but beholden to the lobby
“Backbone” as long as it is aligned with her narrative.
Don’t forget this is the same woman who has offered obsequious support to Donald Trump and George Santos.
This is the woman who took the place in Congressional hierarchy from the epitome of “backbone”, Liz Cheney
There is one case that made headlines around the world resulting in a student being dropped from
@@Wasteoftime10you’re telling me that Joseph McCarthy had enough of a backbone to confront antisemitism? If so, then I have even more respect for him.
She came prepared to not answer any questions
This Harvard president got so much pushback frim this that she resigned
She allows the free expression of things that agree with her ideology and politics.
I think she learned her approach from Mao and Stalin.
By she, you mean who?
But that's what Fox news, and most conservative institutions do as well. Trump is even promising to run the government this way, in favor of HIS people of course. No one is clean
Yeah, everyone does. Like you here
Stefanik? Yep
Elise Stefanik is Awesome ! She shredded the President of Harvard !!
She will make an excellent vice president for the next president.
@@tianrunde7534
For the next Democrat president maybe. The dipstick holding that position now still has this one beat in the flat lined FMRI department though.
The only thing that Elise can 'shred' is the packaging on a Snickers Bar.
Yes
@@Wasteoftime10Aha, you found a talent she possesses. I'll have to add that to her resume. Up til now I thought her only skill was being a useless windsock.
Harvard needs a new President ASAP.
We need a new government. Congress is “Israeli-occupied territory.”
The US govt. seems to work more for Israel than for the American people.
The next will be no different.
Harvard needs a complete makeover, not just a new president.
It is at odds o the values - at Harvard???
@@sabejreid2072 It should be if it isn't already. Can't believe it isn't.
it's insulting to the questioner, that the Harvard administrator will not answer a question directly. Elise asks a question, and Claudine starts talking about whatever she wants-
Having a group of hundreds of people outside your dorm chanting for your death isn't bullying? She doesn't give two craps about free speech. Imagine a group of right wing people on her campus? She'd have them arrested.
So is democrats that keep harassing Trump, that is bulling too.
There is no such thing as right wing. You are just RIGHT, plain and simple. LMAO.
this is a world issue
Just as in court trials, Committees should be able to levy strict, punitive measures against those who refuse to answer questions - especially Yes/No questions - during hearings.
When the President of Harvard dodges giving any direct answers to every question, speaks volumes!
She's not dodging any question. She simply recognises that the question is manipulative.
Harvard brings in more money than any other college in our country, and now they’re dealing with a Professor they let go who said she thinks it’s because she must have hurt META’s feelings. It’s amazing what a $400,00,000 META donation to Harvard can get you. The president of Harvard didn’t give one straight answer to any of the questions!
FBI director, Christopher Wray...they are kin 🤣😂💩
It goes without saying that Stefanik is going on the offensive to deflect from the genocide Israel is committing in Gaza. Narcissism at its finest.
She's been interrogated by a dirty politician with no moral. The replies she has given were in accordance with that fact.
This is the best five minutes on TH-cam. I have watched this video four times, and Elise Stefanik is my new hero. You were fantastic, and Dershowitz couldn't have shredded the Harvard President more than you did. You go girl ❤
She's a mercenary. If you still need heroes, particularly someone like Stefanik, then you have some growing up to do.
YOU GO GIRL!!!! Elise Stefanik is a REAL WOMAN and a HERO 2 HUMANITY!!!!! Thank you for all the hard work that you've done to PROTECT & FIGHT for OUR FREEDOM & SURVIVAL!!!

"She received the Anna Laura Myers Prize for best undergraduate thesis in economics and graduated in 1992.[5] Gay then earned her Ph.D. in 1998 from Harvard University, where she won the university's Toppan Prize for the best dissertation in political science.[7]"
Her political views don't matter. Her credentials were determined to be sufficient for the job.
@@blessingjohnchelliah4317 From my understanding that's not entirely true in that if her political views are making her school unsafe for students or if her political views are allowing the issues presented to rise.
@@discussioncorner Point taken. How does one balance free speech and actions? When Donald Trump railed against Mexicans and called them rapists, no one stopped him because of the 1st amendment. Racist violence spiked during his presidency that legitimately could be traced to his speeches that incited violence against minorities. Yet more than 70 million people voted for him despite his racist rhetoric.
Affirmative action
@@philsavage7153... and your point is?
“Calling for genocide is not bullying or harassment.” Seriously, this lady is nuts.
yes....Calling for genocide “Claudine Gay” is not bullying or harassment.🤣😂🤣
No, you don't understand. Saying the south will rise again could scare the hell out of black people. Would want anyone who said that to be expelled???
@@richardsarabi2064 first, I’ve never heard anyone say that. Second, no one has ever said that while meaning that they want slavery to be legal or to mean they want a genocide of black people. This lady straight up admitted that she knows these people are calling for genocide and said that it is not the same as bullying or harassment.
Gay was a diversity hire. Look at what they got.
Yes, she is.. That's probably exactly how she got the job
That is some good ol' DEI for ya.
Pick the worst person based on color and gender.
Would this Harvard president allow students to call for her own death by violence?
That is exactly the point. Or would she allow a mob to march calling for the death of black women such as herself and maybe her children and family? Would that be an OK free speech march on campus? Someone maybe should give it a try. All in the name of research of course.
Like the death threats by election deniers!
They all need to go, what a disgrace.
Nope. They were all CORRECT.
Please tell us how you teach students about the Holocaust in the 1930-40s without saying that Hitler called for "the genocide of jews"?
You can't.
.
If we don't teach that Hitler called for "the genocide of jews", then it's antisemitism because we're not saying; Hitler called for "the genocide of jews" .. Right?
.
Back to your barstool LIGHTWEIGHT
Harvard could have answered "we have ## people under investigation" without breaching any privacy rules. The fact that she didn't means nobody is under investigation.
Prob
@@zeeman3684Probably not.
That was covered without going into the details of internal investigations.
Bingo. All she had to do wa list some examples of what was being done. Though it might also mean that said people were investigated and given slaps on the wrist or less, which she knows will not go well.
Well its possible , but its also the fact that she would need to have the numbers on hand to answer the question.
and the reason this specific point matters is because if say she says idk 300 people are under investigation.
But it later turns out to be 700. Politicians will do what they do and will claim that she was lying or some variant thereof.
THE CALL FOR VIOLENCE, no matter who does it, IS CROSSING THE LINE OF FREE SPEECH!
ANYONE WITH A 1ST GRADE EDUCATION KNOWS THAT!. . . . . . .
I am not Jewish, but I will wear my "yellow star". This woman has strengthened my resolve.
I salute you 🙋♂️
This Howard university Professor needs to be not only fired, but put to jail for allowing such thing. She’s disgusting absolutely disgusting human being for allowing such thing!!
Elise Stefanik is so ON POINT! 👏👏🎯
She should be fired and doesn’t deserve a pension
She shouldn't be hired anywhere!!
That speech is personally abhorrent to her, however, no one will be held accountable.

Thank you, Elise Stefanik, for all that you do for our country. You are top-notch, the cream of the crop!
Thank You Congresswoman
I wonder how quick she'll change her tune if the college students were saying the same thing about blacks?
Just when I thought that Harvard had reached the bottom, there was a knock from below the bottom.
She definitely understands the questions she is so sly you ask yourself how did she get the job she must be removed from her position
She is a fool but thinks she is right ,unbelievably ...
Mrs Elise Stefanik has the spine to stand for what’s right & take a stand against what’s wrong. The heads of these American University do not deserve to be seen even close to these Universities leave alone heading them. Well done Mrs Stefanik. Keep it up.

I believe the same Mrs Stefanik is perfectly ok with the genocide of Palestinians by the Zionists . How hypocritical! How disgusting!
Amennn
She’s awesome
Shameful. She must resign!!!!!
I hate to say it but I agree with Stefanik. Hate speech should not be permitted.
Problem is ..define hate speech
BS!!! There is no such thing as hate speech. Not in a country where you have free speech. Speech that you don't agree with is the definition of free speech. You don't censor speech, not good speech, not bad speech; nothing. The way you defeat bad speech is with more good speech. STOP CENSORING! 🇺🇲🗽
hate speech is different than a direct call for violence.
A call to violence isn't hate speech.
A call to violence is a whole other beast.
Someone being an asshole is not the same as someone calling for harm to come to others.
@@discussioncorner "hate speech" has no meaning. It's really just any speech that someone else hates. So it's still protected. But I agree, a direct call for violence is not free speech, it's not protected because it's calling for actual violence.

Please reframe from calling those individuals kids, because they are attending some ivy league university. There are young men and woman younger than your so called "kiddies" that are prepared and do lay down their live for those rabble .
2:27 "we embrace a commitment to free expression."
But only if you're expressing something i agree with. Pretty sure anti trans, anti black,anti Muslim expression would be dealt with immediately
Calling for or inciting violence is the only speech that is illegal. But if you look at the quality of people running these schools you can see how Harvard went from the jewel of our Ivy League to a lowlife institution that I wouldn’t send my dog to.
It's destruction is almost complete now that diversity hiring is in full bloom.
There was less of an outcry when students were verbally attacking and shutting down conservatives speakers at colleges or when Dr Angela Davis at a speaking event location was cancelled the day she got there so she had to speak at a black church! NO DEMAND FOR A UNIVERSITY HEAD TO BE FIRED OR RESIGN WAS DONE! DR CLAUDINE GAY A BLACK WOMAN WITH A PH.D FROM HARVARD AND NOW RUNS IT! Thats what you all are really mad about!
You couldn’t even get in bozo
It’s only “imminent danger”
I had to watch it twice to make sure I heard it right the first time around.
the fact that the president of Harvard intentionally would not answer a Yes or No question - is really quite serious. She is intentionally deflecting, and does not wish to answer because she knows what will happen if she admits the truth. The lady asking the questions should have really gone after her and forced her to openly state what is so obvious, a blind man could see it.
When you see the results they produce in their students, it's puzzling people are expecting something different. This is on course with the indoctrination that had been spewing out of the students' mouths.
Some evil ones are backing that evil woman..
stefanik is pushing her into a corner thats not right and putting words into her mouth that is what is the truth

I'm pleased that these universities have been summoned, given their role as the "leading" institutions among reputable schools. They must establish guidelines that align with human values and should adhere to the genuine essence of freedom of speech.
Back in my day, you could be not just expelled, but expunged, i.e., have any record of your attendance or admission be destroyed, for "conduct unbecoming to a Harvard gentleman." It seems there are no more gentlemen, or gentle ladies, left at Harvard. I weep for what started out as a Christian institution, but whose moral compass has obviously dissolved into nothingness.
Take a second to think…. That is the President of one of the most prestigious Universities in the world. Shameful is a massive understatement. 😮
She shouldn’t be no where near that position, or in education sector.
Maybe you should take more than a second to study up on the First Amendment and Supreme Court cases that set the boundaries for free speech, rather than making ignorant statements. In the Supreme Court case of Brandenburg v. Ohio, the Court overturned the conviction of a KKK leader who at a KKK rally called for violence against blacks and Jews. The Supreme Court held that the government cannot punish inflammatory speech unless that speech is "directed to inciting or producing imminent lawless action and is likely to incite or produce such action". President Gay was correct as she attempted to answer, but the rude Stefanik kept interrupting her. Stefanik was just grandstanding, trying to score points with gotcha yes or no questions, not allowing Gay to make her point. If I was sitting there with Stefanik badgering me, I would have told her to F off, and left the room.
@@PaladinAwaits if thats the case, than answer the question and back it up with what you just said.
@@crocroo7811 I answered. You just don't get it. An abstract call for genocide by a protester does not violate the Supreme Court case law I noted. And protesters are not allowed to carry guns on campus. So there can be no imminent threat of genocide, which is a mass killing. The question was so stupid, it was almost laughable. If Supreme Court case law allows it, why are you holding Harvard to a different standard?
Glad to see they're showing the faces of the people who are destroying these landmark educational facilities. These people's answers and inactions tell us everything we need to know on who's teaching these young people to have this hate...
I salute congresswoman you do your job. I think new set of officers soon will rise. I salute. That is an America
What a shame, she should be fired!
I thought Harvard is a good school. I was wrong.
Go woke, go broke
Intifadah doesn't mean genocide of Jews and doesn't even have to be violent lmao.
@@TimaWeynnewdym “doesn’t HAVE to be violent”
Dancing around a question on this serious issue goes beyond this woman’s high ranking education.
It’s difficult for me to understand why the president is having such a difficult time answering the questions asked here!
It sounds like she wants to let things go until an act of hate occurs before halting the hate behaviors.
Disgusting!
the president(s) danced around the question to avoid pissing off the donors from the middle east to the harvard endowment fund(s). oil money. israel can't pay. money talks.
@@michael8372obviously. All of their answers also came from lawyers.
It doesn't change anything.
because it is a political snare, not an educated question
Because these woke administrators only find bigotry, hate or violations of school policy if the "victims" are women or POC's
So when white evangelical nationalist verbally attack muslim students...what should happen to the president of harvard?
THAT'S THE PRESIDENT OF HARVARD!?!?!??😂😂😂
Can’t be… did she just say,
When the speech turns into action it can be called harassment &/or intimidation.
Did I hear that right?
I guess unaliving people is intimidating under Harvards code of conduct!!
😮😡🤬🤬🤬🤬
That is what the police will tell you too. Someone can say whatever they want until it turns into an action. Ask your local cop. That is the law.
@@golfswingbodymechanicsinte2854That’s totally different. They can suspend students for violating the code of conduct.
Where did harvard find this person to be head and leader of harvard? This person is not quailfied and not honest (IMHO).
