Chair Foxx Rips Columbia President's Testimony After Tense Antisemitism Hearing

Рет қаралды 67,664

House Committee on Education & the Workforce

Ай бұрын

The rise of antisemitism on college campuses is disturbing and threatening to Jewish students, faculty, and staff. Since the barbaric attack on October 7, antisemitism-verging on support for Hamas terrorism-has been pervasive at Columbia, and university administrators have been left paralyzed in response.
Chairwoman of the House Education and the Workforce Committee Virginia Foxx (R-NC) joined Greta Van Susteren on Newsmax to discuss the Committee's antisemitsm hearing, where Members demanded accountability from the top members of Columbia leadership, including President Minouche Shafik, for the disturbing wave of antisemitic harassment and discrimination engulfing Columbia University's campus.

In a traditional First Amendment forum, all of this is permitted. Have you forgotten the Westboro Baptist Church case? Or RAV v. City of St. Paul? Both involved odious speech and expression. The speakers won in both. Targeting people individually, where they work or study or live, is entirely different. That is harassment, intentional infliction of emotional distress, and so forth. If it rises to the level of true threats or intimidation, it's a crime: summon the police. Where is Nadine Strossen, now that we desperately need her to speak out? The Constitution isn't a Miss Manners tome. (And don't tell me Columbia is private: every private university has incorporated First Amendment jurisprudence into its bylaws, by choice.)

You do realize most of the congressmen are there with "gotcha" questions and almost no one let's Shafik finish her sentence (which is typical of these kinds of hearings). These hearings are not there to allow the ppl summoned to answer questions. They are there to humiliate them, simple as that. Now whether that's good or bad, that's debatable, I'm not gonna comment on that. But to say that Shafik is nervous, well, no shit? If she says the wrong thing she could be fired.

@@larynOneka8080Sounds like you might need a cup of tea and a nap. Wailing all sorts of assumptions there. But anyhow, quite the opposite absolutely fundamentally believe in free speech. Where free speech becomes "violence " is when it is exercised in an abusivre, intimidating or threatening manner towards others. When it calls for physical harm to others or other societal groups. When the right is utilised to obstruct the rights of others do go about their liberty free of intimidation, threats or "obstruction" in 'shared public space'. Free speech comes with civil responsibilitiest. The previous lack of policing regarding the antisocial manner in which people have chosen to express their free speech has led to, on this occasion, intervention. Thats because civil society is fedup with the disrespect shown towards others rights who may think differently and their freedom to do so. Rights are not oneway traffic we all have them. Silencing and oppressing others rights with calls for harm or social obstruction is not exercising free speech its abuse. Oddly enought it is the students who often react like words are violence unable to tolerate a conversation regarding contested concepts, often literally tantruming at others who do not share their view. Even curtailing the freedoms of those members if the community who have no view on the matter. They needed a good reason to get outside in the fresh air for a change.
