Lesbian model-turned DEI manager is fired by university for posing in front of Israeli flag emblazoned with swastikas - and is now suing over claims her free speech rights were violated (Minnesota)

A model-turned DEI manager who was fired because she posed in front of an Israeli flag emblazoned with swastikas is now suing because her First Amendment rights were ‘violated’.

Mashal Sherzad, 29, was fired from her position as the diversity, equity and inclusion manager at the University of Minnesota because of now seemingly deleted pictures that she accidentally uploaded onto her public social media of her posing in front of the controversial flag.

Sherzad, who identified as Muslim, and who is in a relationship with a woman, began her role in October, 2023, and travelled to Barcelona to attend a pro-Palestinian rally just two months later. She shared pictures of herself from the rally - including snaps of her posing in front of the swastika-embezzled Israeli flag!

Wealthy, Elite Universities Like Harvard Taxed You $45 Billion In Last Five Years!

Posted on 4/27/2024, 8:23:42 AM by RicocheT

Who knew that the Ivy League and other wealthy institutions were taxing you, the American people!

Incredibly, it’s a $45 billion largess during the most recent five-year period.

Our auditors at OpenTheBooks.com quantified the federal payments on contracts and grants and special tax treatment of their endowments into the eight schools of the Ivy League plus Stanford University and Northwestern University.

Since 2018, $33 billion of federal contracts and grants flowed to these ten colleges – averaging $6.6 billion annually.

Today, these “educational” non-profits are more federal contractor than they are educator. Their $33 billion in federal contracts and grants outpaced their collection of undergraduate student tuition.

Furthermore, these schools reaped another $12 billion in special tax treatment benefits on the growth of their massive endowment gains (2018-2022). Endowments totaled $237 billion in 2022, up almost $65 billion from $172 billion in 2018.

Our society is very faddish / trendy and prone to taking these trends to extremes.

Much of what we claim to be environmentalism, national security, for public education, disease control has at least in part a degree of social fad, sometimes fueled by politics and business (power and money) and little to do with the cause they claim to be supporting. Yes, even being anti-Israel or pro-Ukraine, Covid, much of this LGBTQIA stuff floating out there today has all the classic signs of being a fad and having been sold to the public no different than when bell-bottom pants were in.

Former CNN host Don Lemon stated that “some of” the protesters are bigots, and “a lot of them don’t have the information needed because they’re getting their news from TikTok…and they don’t have the history of what’s going on.”
