Wouldn't you hold the president--a fully educated adult--to a higher standard than students who are younger and still being educated?

Bri needs to be looked at closer for her own plagiarism. No one in their right mind would overlook the damage done to academic ethics by a diversity hiring policy allowing gross and frequent plagiarism. In Bri's mind it's racism if you admit that she was hired regardless of her clearly unqualified and unethical student record that has over 50 clear cases of plagiarism. Bri states that plagiarism is very normal and only an issue because she is black and Christopher Rufo has an agenda of removing these so called anti Zionist professors . That statement is shallow and completely misses the point of what Rufo is pointing out. When you hire someone based on their diversity and not on their academic merit, you destroy the very basic values that make a university credible and valuable. No possible logical reason for hiring someone with such poor academic ethics and judgement unless she is an affirmative action hire and that harms everyone when that is the norm.

[@Vino-bv5ic]

She is why ppl hate women.

[@andoros.7017]

itd be a "racist hate crime" if she were to be interrupted in her ceaseless anti-Semitic rantings.

[@DarkPassenger]

She's the reason I stopped watching, and only check the comments from time to time.

[@justme7415]

God, Bri is absolutely terrible. If this is the critical thinking one could expect from a Harvard education, she should demand a refund.

[@theblackflame4002]

Ivy league schools haven't educated in years, they indoctrinate.

[@lucyb7929]

Glad that the students have some standards. Clear the board of Harvard does NOT.

[@williamscott8009]

Harvard's reputation and integrity destroyed.....

[@julianciahaconsulting8663]

I think Bri needs to take some time off....and really think about whether journalism is really for her...because her objectivity is declining by the week and her emotional take on the issues is resulting more and more in her just condescendingly talking loudly over others, basically scolding and berating others for nothing more than having a different opinion than her own.....& her obsession with Gaza and taking every issue into Gaza shows that she definitely has an agenda.

[@wahs6246]

She still has the sane against injustice and against all pro zionist delusional psychopaths .

[@ProclaimedHERETIC]

If this was a normal, non-tenure professor with 50 instances of plagiarism, they would absolutely be fired.

[@mikehughes8023]

That’s why you have to look at the people who put her there in the first place.

[@genjimasamune4297]

Professors and high ranking officials should NOT be subject to the same punishment as students and citizens. Those in charge who took an oath need a higher responsibility. That's the entire point.

[@wherezthebeef]

So.. turns out, Bri has no integrity or credibility.

[@JGSmith82]

I love how Bri is ignoring the plagiarism as if it's not a HUGE problem....when, as the President of an elite institution, its the main issue. Even a more serious problem than her statements before congress

[@FairPlayGaming]

Let's be real here, had the president of Harvard been a straight white male, he would've been fired on the spot in a humiliating fashion. Her being an African-American woman in a powerful position, is why certain types of people are trying to downplay the issue for the sake of their ideology.

[@dusa5918]

She talks too fast abt nothing

[@rubyruby6358]

If everyone just shut up and let Bri speak non stop and not challenge her she would be satisfied

[@dusa5918]

[@AFSOC2]

Kind of reflects on the reputation of Harvard grads and Harvard as an institution

[@andoros.7017]

Im just amazed Bri doesnt lose balance and fall out of her chair from nonstop spinning for 18 mins straight.

[@michaelswaim9428]

Underrated comment🎉

[@MyTruth1771]

Bri is destroying any standing she has to credibly argue for any issue.

[@jacquesvantonder2158]

She's the leader of a university. She has to set an example to students that are held accountable when they commit plagirism.

[@isrbillmeyer]

Bri Bri Bri... Claudine has been in the job long enough to do something about Free Speech censorship if she actually cared about it. She was totally onboard with it.

[@johngalardi]

In her own testimony she admitted that she picks and chooses what speech is allowed. She could have worked at Harvard for a day. The span of time is irrelevant. She admitted that she’d only allow “free speech” on a case-by-case based, which is the opposite of free.

[@sulaak]

6 Months ?

[@dogeared100]

6 months?

[@TheVuduYuDu]

@@johngalardi Please go back and actually listen to her testimony. Also you should review the Harvard policy on this issue (which predates her tenure btw). Facts and context matter.

[@iFaFo_0]

I think anyone who plagiarizes should be expelled. Have better standards.

[@nancyallen8497]

I took a writing class 10 years ago at the local community college in on the first day of class they explain that all of your assignments all of your papers will be processed through a computer program that checks for plagiarism by scanning for word combinations down to three or forward combinations and it's compared to everything that's ever been published and placed on the Internet newspapers magazines and books manuscripts etc. etc. etc. and if any of your work comes back as being the writing of someone else and is not credited, you'll be expelled from school.

[@jimmajamma2006]

Surely the president needs to be held to higher standards than the students

[@mklite]

Bri is putting on her Harvard Law School hat and now advocating for a differentiation between acceptable plagiarism versus unacceptable plagiarism. These lawyers will make an argument for just about anything.

[@VoxMachina8]

It's pedantic arguing over minute details so that you don't see the bigger picture. It's done on purpose, because this is a bad faith debater vs a weak debater. She owns him with ease virtually every time.

[@remittanceman4685]

That's not a Harvard Law School hat she's wearing. It's a certain card she's frantically waving.

[@scratchpenny]

@@VoxMachina8 That's right. If Robbie wasn't such a weak debater, Bri would be destroyed by her own arguments. She argues in bad faith on almost every topic, but Robbie is incapable of responding to it.

[@LanaUSA212]

Let's not confuse an intelligent, merit-based Harvard school graduate with this DEI affirmative action graduate co-host

[@VoxMachina8]

@HELLWARS101 nah I disagree with a ton of what Bri has to say. But she is clearly educated. She's just dishonest.

[@zivcovla]

Thank you Bri for defending plagiarism. I’m glad that you think those in charge shouldn’t be held to an even higher standard. I seem to remember you making quite the opposite argument in several other instances where you thought people in charge should be held to an even higher standard than those underneath them. This is why we have the lax standards we have now since nobody seems to care. I’m not exactly sure what good a college education is If these are the standards.

[@julzp424]

With 50 allegations and complaints with that I will resign.

[@Sarah40.]

The president of Harvsrd should be fired for plagiarism. I don't understand the need for debate. It's disrespectful even to talk about it.

[@tom_adv]

I enjoy healthy debates and this show has them, but when they’re not healthy and get nasty or just plain mean it’s always Bri doing the dirt debating.

[@babybonesxd4810]

Literally every single time! I always try to give her the benefit of the doubt and everytime I am disappointed.

[@minipirate888]

Bri has lost all pretense of being interested in fairness. She is not concerned at all with journalism. She is in this for the platform for her militancy.

[@KD-rs6xx]

Can you imagine the pressure on her to be like this??

[@steventwine8705]

The tick boxes are sticking together because they know once one of them falls, their gravy train could be ending.

I've almost unsubscribed many times because of Bri! IDK how Robbie manages to put up with her???

[@user-ye5hs2nt2w]

First requirement to attend Harvard is too have money not higher intellect, perfect example that “free speech “ only applies to wealthy individuals

[@patrickcarlin4166]

Give me a break guys, she has a duty of care for the students that she has responsibility for. She has a duty to uphold the values of such a prestigious institution. She can’t be held to account for the same standards as students. Her responsibility is way higher.

[@norbertfeher5077]

This woman feels entitled to speak 4/5 of the time, at least.

Yes, but she is a pretty clown who also agrees with the other clowns of this country who dominate politics in the urban areas.
