Thanks for posting that video. Modern Day Holy War is a great song pointing out how much evil we, as a nation, have already accepted. It’s a great anthem.

One overpaid, incompetent douchebag gone. Two to go, and then the rest of their counterpart maggots who are rotting out American values and education.

Calling the Orkin Man. You are wanted on college campuses all over America, and you are going to need more cesspool cleaner.

The chair of the University of UPenn’s Board of Trustees, Scott Bok, resigned on Saturday, after man-splaining controversial comments (now resigned) UPenn President Liz Magill made at a House hearing on antisemitism this week.

https://thehill.com/homenews/education/4352000-upenn-board-of-trustees-chair-resigns-following-university-presidents-departure/

Bok described Magill’s comments as “a very unfortunate misstep… after five hours of aggressive questioning before a Congressional committee.”

He stood up for her in the message, calling her “a very good person and a talented leader who was beloved by her team”

“Worn down by months of relentless external attacks, she was not herself last Tuesday,” he said. “Over prepared and over lawyered given the hostile forum and high stakes, she provided a legalistic answer to a moral question, and that was wrong.”

“It made for a dreadful 30-second sound bite in what was more than five hours of testimony,” he added.

The hierarchy at many of these “famous” universities are now trembling in fear. Their greatest fear has always been not so much all the things they educate against, but that the alumni, major donors, legislators, etc. would start paying attention to what’s really happening and what they are really really promoting, to say nothing about what they are doing with the $Billions rolling into their coffers.

John Nolte refers to the now resigned UPenn president and the other two presidents as "the Eva Brauns of Harvard, Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), and the University of Pennsylvania."

Nolte also notes that Liz Magill will still remain at UPenn as a tenured faculty member.

Didn’t UPenn hire that hockey stick prevaricator Mikey Mann for the State Penn a few years ago?

University of Pennsylvania (UPenn, private, Ivy) did hire him in 2022 as director of the Center for Science, Sustainability & the Media. Earlier in the 2000s he had been director of the Earth System Science Center at the Pennsylvania State University (Penn State, public).

They are two different universities, many miles apart, founded over a century apart).

None of those statements is an apology for creating a hostile, anti-Semitic environment on campus

Good riddance. She is a disgrace. Women swimmers didn't do too well under her administration, either.

Magill is a quintessential example of the liberal, college educated, upper class, female Democrat voter block. They’re immoral, selfish, conceited, neurotic or worse and stupid. Violent revolutionaries thrill them.

Here she is with her mentor, keeping her head lower than the queen:

The PBS Frontline documentary, “Crisis on Campus,” examines how university leaders, some of whom have faced congressional hearings, navigated the challenges of responding to heated rhetoric and division on their campuses and balancing free speech with the need to prevent harassment and discrimination.
