Guest Post by Martin Armstrong
U Penn is the latest American university to lose a major donor due to misled students supporting Hamas. American universities were the first to promote the woke agenda and far-left policies. Hence it is not surprising to see privileged kids ripping down American flags and replacing them with the Palestinian flag. Hedge fund manager and former U Penn alumni Ross Stephens is now rescinding $100 million in funding from the school after the school refused to condemn pro-Palestine protests.
School President Liz Magill attempted to enact damage control after Steven’s announcement but it was too late. Ronald Lauder, heir of Este Lauder, also sent a letter to President Liz Magill criticizing the Hamas rallies on campus. “You are forcing me to reexamine my financial support absent satisfactory measures to address antisemitism at the university,” Lauder wrote.
Another billionaire, David Magerman, also penned Magill to advise her to seek donations elsewhere. “I am deeply ashamed of my association with the University of Pennsylvania. I refuse to donate another dollar to Penn,” he stated before saying he will “refuse to donate another dollar to Penn.” Then billionaire Jonathon Jacobson threatened to send Magill a mere $1 per year until she leaves office “and the Board of Trustees grows the backbone to fulfill its mission, which is to govern the university according to the principles upon which it was founded.” Even the former governor of Utah, Jon Huntsman, condemned U Penn for remaining silent and pledged to cease donations.
This is happening at schools across America. As hedge fund billion Leon Cooperman said before pulling funding from Columbia University, “I think these kids at the colleges have s–t for brains.” Unfortunately these same protestors may find themselves on a battlefield one day. The school system corrupted the youth and diluted their minds with this alternate reality where Palestine loves the gays and American capitalism is responsible for the world’s problems.

That’s a shame.
Lol
seriously– if people think Harvard and Yale are churning out leftists; Columbia has got to be the worst and then Penn is 2nd on the list of Marxist indoctrination among Ivy League schools.
Donors are pulling donations from schools because of the students exercising their right to be morons?
Talk about a Pettyloan Junction..
We can explain it to you but, well, let’s not even try.
Why give to any of schools?
To control them.
He who pays the piper calls the tune.
So they were ok with the other batshit crazy? It wasn’t until now they couldn’t take it anymore? This is the end result of what happens whenever you open the door even a crack to batshit crazy. Will they learn this lesson? NOPE, big fat NOPE!
They were as long as it helped to disposses Heritage Americans, the prototypical WASP’s that made up the majority population of America until 1965.
I have been fortunate to have heard these discussions between the administration and top donors inside the ivory towers when they believed they were free to speak openly about their concerns.
They care about one group only and they used the other minorities that they filled these schools with for decades as long as they were useful in displacing the Founder’s posterity. Now they demand they be expelled or silenced or the money flow stops.
The golem is both a blessing and a curse, nachas and tsores.
And in their hubris, (((they))) failed to plan for how to contain and neutralize the golem once it starts thinking for itself and turns on its creator. As is always the case.
Hahaha…………nigger monkey Gay thought it was bullet-proof……………the master race !
Until it found out who the real democrat party master race is.
Nowadays, anytime someone is called before a Congressional committee to be questioned, they are never held accountable for refusing to answer.
Wray, Fauci, Mayorkas,and lately, progressive liberal feminist diversity hires who look like men and support the trans indoctrination of children…
They all tap dance around hard questions with word salad sentences that evade responsibility.
Seems they are coached well by Scribes & Pharisees in legal circles.
When lawyers use the tactic of “Answer my question with a simple Yes or No” it can be a slimy tactic to put someone in a Catch 22 where they are damned if they do, and damned if they don’t.
It’s a morally questionable tactic.
And yet in a court of law, an attorney can petition the judge to order a witness to answer the question, under penalty of contempt of court for refusing to do so, with evasive gibberish.
With the Left in control, for lack of a more apropros group term to define those destroying a once decent country / world to live in, the bias and justice is undeniable, and accountability is never enforced.
Unless of course, as a baker, you’re sued because you refuse to make a wedding cake for a couple of flamers in Frisco who could have sought an alternative supplier, but no. Muh butthurt revenge.
And they demand respect.
Laughable, were they not so despicable.
They are all scripted theater that’s why. Everyone there knows its staged. They use tight shots frequently and crafty editing.
Loving every minute of this. Might actually wake up the “woke”.
Sort of a “De-fund the fags and assholes” initiative. A long needed program indeed!
Debunestrate is the term.
The real danger in this?
Important jobs that absolutely require expertise are being given to those whose only qualification they have that checks a box is their skin color.
Now, say your mayor, your water district manager, your fire department commander, police chief and judges are all hired on such “requirements”….
What will happen?
A whole lot of crazy fires, wrecks and disasters-all preventable-become a daily occurance via incompetent leadership.
They have us tearing down our own life support systems using such tactics.
The woketards in universities have been granted the soapbox for so long that they assume that they are entitled to worshipful praise from the media outlets who cheered for them when they outshouted anyone who disagreed with their idiocy. Apparently, they took their jewish benefactors seriously when they were told that jews are not in charge and have no power, that such an idea was absurd.
Now, they are being slapped down and told that jews are not to be criticized. They are getting a lesson on who holds the whip. I guess we’ll see them do an about face and become Israel Firsters. I think it’s hilarious.
So … all of the big jewish donors of these universities are having fits because their own ‘victim’ policies are being used against their homeland … and that cannot be permitted to happen.
So … McGill’s replacement will likely be jewish … and keep things firmly in control on the anti-semitic front … while punishing free speech with a vengeance …
Got it …
Fuck Israel, and fuck jews. Hitler did us a favor….
