Defund Harvard.
Defund one of the best universities in the country (and world)? What a brilliant idea.
why, so you can attend?
@@themaskedman221 it's brilliant but the reputation of Harvard are tarnished now because of the incompetent people like this President of Harvard Claudine Gay.
@@themaskedman221 Nazis had brilliant scientists too. Does it justify Holocaust?
Free black people!!
McClain is right. Talk is cheap. Where are the disciplinary actions?
if talk is cheap, why make such a big deal about this in the first place????
hypocrites
Was there any disciplinary action against the mobbing of Russian students in American universities?
for what ? for free speech ??? disciplining people for PROTECTED SPEECH UNDER THE CONSTITUTION ???? FREE PALESTINE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It means there's no action.
@@samgriess438you win the dumb comment of the day. The lip service and word salad vs an actual action falls on lefty liars and haters as usual
Can you imagine the outrage and immediate action if members of the LGBTQ+ community were treated like the Jewish students have been treated on these campuses???
FREE SPEECH
Exactly!
Or blacks for that matter
Antisemitism funded by the American Tax payer??!.......those women need to step down!!
go home!!
@@mteokay1246mobbing people has no relation to free speech.
Claudine Gay is not worthy to be referred to as President of Harvard! Her responses were abhorrent and should be removed. While I too support Freedom of Speech I also know to draw the line when it digresses to publicly call for violence and genocide against anyone or group of people. Time to GET RID OF HER!!!
gay has to go without discussion!
If it was black people being abused.
She would be calling for the death penalty.
what would she say if a thousand non blacks shouted anti black racist statements and chanted time to have a necktie party?
She was smug too. Kept smiling as if she was winning something by stonewalling. What an evil and spineless creature
@@93xfanMagill was smug too and kept smiling. Their behavior was repugnant.
You can’t expect woke progressive professors to do anything but talk.
FREE PALESTINE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Free from hamas

She's a hypocrite

It's a dangerous game we letting these people play in the West where we just pick and choose on truth for whatever agenda fill our pockets.
Thank you, Lisa McClain, for calling out the institutionalized academic antisemitism in these universities. Where are the disciplinary actions?
Antisemitism seems to be a world wide disease for some but I can't believe it is institutionalized in Universities like these, I do believe though that Radical Islam is tolerated when it should not be, the US is a multicultural nation where every race, religion, gender and sexual orientation have an equal opportunity and you only have to look at these videos to see that it is. But we must remember that Radical Islam subjugates anyone who is not a believer and we must never bow down to it and fight it whenever we can. God bless the US, Australia and especially Israel in it's fight against it.
Mind Begs the Question:
- If a Govt/Media/Business/University
- Criminalize protesting Starvation,Death Camps,Gas Chambers/White Phosphorus,Pogroms,Ethnic Cleansing,etc
- Pro Democracy or Pro Nazi?
FREE PALESTINE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@@mteokay1246I'll take three.
@@HumanBeingsRThinkingBeingsThat's not what was happening, the demonstrators couldn't care less about Palestinians, they just wanted to spew vile hatred against a minority group.
If I was spending any money to pay for my child to attend Harvard, I would be furious.
You might want to know that students are pulling out of Harvard because they say that they are not getting what they pay for.,
I'm glad I didn't go to Harvard
Why are there still students at havard
This is happening at all universities. The fed and Soros are funding this all
Why would you even consider sending your child to Harvard on your dime? Harvard admitted David Hogg a few years ago. That would be an automatic disqualifier for me.
This is absolutely unacceptable! We want action!
As soon as we get an apology for slavery!!
@@ththim7785womp womp skill issue
who cares what you want
@@ththim7785 so a war in which 600,000 Americans were slaughtered, free housing, free food, free money, free phones, affirmative action, quotas, Black Only Schools, Businesses, Organizations, and Support Groups, Protected Status which discriminates against other racial groups of people, Lower criminal sentences, and there's too much to list benefitting Black Americans; you mean all that was needed was an Apology??? Man , somebody really dropped the ball on this one! Ok , here you go," I'm Truly Sorry For Slavery"!!! Now can we get rid of all the other privileges and get back to rewarding people of every color based on their hard work and efforts?

What a brave Congressm woman!
❤I love Lisa !Great lady and real Patriot!Bravo mam!
Glad these colleges are being held accountable!!! This behavior of pure HATE on campus is unacceptable!
How are they being held accountable? By testifying without any new regulation or security measures imposed on them?
@@uria702 being questioned is a form of accountability. Hopeful we will see more action being done. This is a start!
Hate personified as hate by neo nazis and white supremacist has to be cross examined, because it could be a deflection of their own intent
Ibrahim Bharmal - Harvard Law student participated in physically and verbally assaulting an Israeli student.
Zelensky and Netanyahu insisted on moving forward with war, despite peace, acceptance of negotiations, and pleas
Both of them seek to hold on to their position at the expense of their people and the peoples of innocent soldiers and civilians, and because whoever provides them with military and diplomatic support, they will not stop and there will be no peace, and their wars harm the peoples of the entire world, either through a nuclear war to come or poverty and high prices
President Gay, step down!
You should lose your job! Go away!!!!
Ms. McClean is spot on the money. Any action ?? Harvard must be hard up if this is a staff member. No answers.
It isn't a staff member - it's the President of Harvard!
She did speak about some of the action. That some of the instances are under investigation and that disciplinary action is on the way.
@@anacc3257On the way? When 2 months later? If it was white students saying anti black statements she’d look to be having them expelled and arrested for hate speech. Sorry door swings both ways. Her days are numbered, and this whole ideology of it being ok is going to come crashing down very very hard.
@@anacc3257 But, they didn't do anything against the Deans that promised no disciplinary action. And that's fully within their authority. Harvard acknowledged it, so no investigation is necessary. Still, nothing happened against the Deans. And, that is example of "no action".

That is Harvard president?! OMG!

We have become so woke, that we dont judge people about what they can do, how talented they are, but weve actually went and did a full wrap around and got back to judging and praising people based on their skin color. Woke made us racist again LOL
What a joke Harvard has become.

It is clear to me that these "elites" are NEVER going to take ANY action. Enough words, defund.
Action will be taken against them.
Yup.. Defund Harvard.
I gained even more respect for Lisa McClain. Wow. Loved her questions.
these half hearted pathetic answers!!! 💀💀💀💀💀
Rep. Lisa McClain ,YOU DESERVE A GOLD MEDAL!!!!
Rep. L McClain you are representing true America. That is what America needed. 👍👍👍👍👍 for you 👏👏👏
YES!! 👏👏❤👍👍
I can't imagine how quickly "action" would have been taken if this were another ethnic group. This university and it's staff are THE definition of 2 faced and bias.
As a former Student Conduct Officer at two public universities, I can tell you that it does not take months to investigate, conduct a hearing, and carry out the university policy on offenders.
It does if the intended goal is to sweep the issue under the rug and do nothing about it. That is the leftist way. Drag it out in the hopes that people will ultimately forget about it and move on with no ACTION taken.
Because there weren't any offenses committed.
Globalize the intifada, and from the river to the sea, are global slogans they're not harassment or bullying.
Even though these are private universities, they promote themselves as bastions of free speech and even explicit calls for genocide, as long as it's not incitement are protected by the first amendment to the Constitution
its a delaying tactic
Bravo Lisa McClain!
Walk the talk ! We stand with Israel 🙏🤝
Thank you Ms McLain!! We need more of you around the worl specially in congress, keep at em McLain!! ❤🤍💙🇮🇱🇺🇸
Dang we need a Rep like this in Colorado. Michigan, please keep this woman in Congress.
We need her in Illinois too!!
Omg these people need to be fired asap!!!!!! This is insane
Fired for upholding free speech?
Defund them and remove the tax benefits of donor contributions until the American people are satisfied that they are in compliance
The government literally can't do that. First of all, their private universities almost all their money except for some research grants comes from private individuals, not the government.
There's a reason that you don't see any public universities up there, even though there's lots of calls for genocide at those universities. It's because calls for genocide is protected speech under the first of Amendment to the Constitution.
Amazing. Thank you!!

Ha ha. Academia. Lip service. Love it. So true
No action supports terrorism and damages the country. It's time to action before it's too late. Thank you, Lisa McClain.
This is child abuse based on hate … Federal hate crime charges need to be filed!
When I was young I thought that the famous phrase: Never again, symbolized the commitment of the world to protect people, especially the Jewish people, from being mass killed by satanic evil. On October 7th, 2023 and in the following days, I learned that the true meaning of Never again clearly emerges from the recognition of the utter failure of humanity not just to provide such protection but even just to verbally express the expected support. The true meaning is that the Jewish people as well as the state of Israel will never again trust their fate with any other but themselves. The world has lost its credibility as well as any moral grounds in this matter and this is going to stay like that from now on.
You very accurately described the essence of what was happening. Thank you .
One of my friends said that he thought he missed the Holocaust by a generation and a half, but it turned out to be thirty kilometers.
Thank you Lisa for focusing on actions!! ❤❤❤
We are calling for resignation for this heartless monster as a president of our Universities!
Good for her. Not taking waffle and lip service as an answer.
Stop the funding to all these colleges!!
How is this woman even there?
Yes... I think that harassment and bullying were present.
Somebody should discipline her.... Get RID of her.... There is a russian saying "The fish rots from the head".
Enough said.....
Lisa you hit the nail on the head. To quote Warren Buffett when the tide is down you can see who is swimming naked😂. These presidents forgot to look at the weather report.
Retire them.
We need these kinds of hearings in the UK. I hope you are watching this SOAS and the other universities!
Hell, yeah . Your too nice..They need to be fired condoning this behavior. Most likely they have hate in their hearts. How dare they Blow hot air without a straight answer! Not on condemnation of the behaviors committed by their students. Thank you Ms. McClain ❤
she hit it on the nail. Lip service and blah blah blah
Ms. McClain was magnificent. She refuses to be diverted from the truth. I have the utmost respect for her.
Thank you Rep Lisa McClain.
This country is going right in the toilet.

throwback to when trump described the neo nazis in Charlottesville as "very fine people"

Discriminate against discriminators....Exclude discriminators from leadership positions.

Dunning-Kruger Effect.
The Dunning-Kruger effect is when a person does not have skills or ability in a specific area but sees themselves as fully equipped to give opinions or carry out tasks in that field, even though objective measures or people around them may disagree. They are unaware that they do not have the necessary capabilities.
Not only these university presidents, but clearly McLain.
Fire these people
The disbelief is clear on the faces of these over paid administrators that others have the temerity to force them briefly to leave their Ivory Towers and actually to hold them to account. If only this could also be done to the Hamas cheerleaders at the BBC. The illusion that the Ivy League universities are superior places of learning is gone.
Harvard become just another low class university - I wouldn’t send my kids there even if they give us free tuition
Just let them watch left leaning TikTok for 2h a day and you accomplish the same allmost free of charge.
I'd love to see Dr Gay take an IQ test. She'd bomb!! 😂😂😂
No more goverment subsidies
Less see who continues donating and who stops donating to a school of hate. Actions speak louder than words.
Why is Gay president of Harvard -- or why would she be the president of a local PTA. No action, just lip service, indeed.
I have a lot of respect for these people defending American values
What exactly is an American value ....just curious
You mean like the most important American value freedom of speech which republicans seem to have a problem with?
@@ambhat3953no terrorism
Are there any valuables? Islam?
wow! even the black president talks like this... wot a freak up!
Agree fully with Ms Lisa. Action must be taken to deter anyone for behaving in such irresponsible manner.
President of Harvard - what a shame - she has no answers and is unable to respond.
Thanks for posting these videos Mr. Forbes.
Shameful. This would never be tolerated with any other group of people. These university presidents need to go NOW!!!
It is something we all need to address with young people ! You need to look at the entire picture as to the history of this religious feud !
Dec 7, 1941, flags should be at half mast, without those men and women in that sequence, none of us would be here, kids have no clue, not educated, we are in sad times.
any form religious and ethnical discussion or debate should be restricted in the Campus, i do have a religion but a public/general learning institution should be impartial regardless of ethnicity/religion/race.
These Harvard professors should know the difference between free speech and hate speech
Gay is the future of our children ???? It aint looking too bright.
I wish the UK Government would take note of this line of questioning.
Afterall, the UK is turning in the USA (ironic), so lets have UK politicians put to task in the same way as we see here.
Oh, right. UK is a cesspit and will continue to degrade. Nevermind.
This kind of grilling, and much worse, happens all the time in your parliament. The issue lies somewhere else.
@@themaskedman221talk is cheap though.
I am happy this impressed you as it impressed me. Gives me hope my country, the U.S.A., can be an inspiration to the world again (if it eveer was).
Greetings from New York (New York City. Not Stefanik's congressional district, Westchester County, New York State).
It's a pretty epic burn telling Ivy League colleges that they should teach a course intended for 5th graders. Well done.
I guess "Blah, blah, blah." is the way they teach you how to answer a question in the university of I'm Smarter Than You.
Thanks, she is absolutely correct , action is important, not talking
thank you senator......
I am glad that finally some people take the matter seriously....
I want to hugh the jews students, I want to encourage them, and tell them that they do not deserved to be misstreated. Sending you all my love and prayers.
Yes loved this, call these ppl out Lisa!! I love how she kept saying "ACTION, Was there any action" Gay needs to be fired and jailed!! 🙏🏼♥️🙏🏼🇮🇱🇺🇸
lisa speaks really strong
we need more leaders like her
Sack her immediately…..she is a disgrace.
Nothing will be done. They just collect their pay checks
Representative McClain is spot on. We need more leaders like her.
They will review and if a student is the child of a major donor…..they will get a pass
I remember the Nazi criminals in Nuremberg taking about processes and regulations.
That was the strategy for avoiding responsibility.
Thank you Lisa McClain
This woman needs to be famous!! Holy fuck!! I just saw her speak on the #SaveWomensSportsAct and now this…
OMG I love you soooooo much Lisa!!!
Not sure I understand why students with any morals would want to attend Penn or Harvard. Not clear on why parents would want their kids going to a college where bigotry is allowed and apparently ignored.
Because graduates from these universities have better career prospects
@@davidcooks2379yes, but there’s better high-ranked alternatives. Princeton, Vanderbilt, Dartmouth, WashU, Emory, etc
@@RandomPerson-ln6yp there is competition
@@davidcooks2379Apparently not any more. Employers are paying close attention.
The senator seems to be missing a very important point. When somebody does something dangerous on campus, they are penalized right away, moved off campus or expelled or whatever. You don’t wait for the results of an investigation before you take action. That question never came up.
I think your assessment is fair. The one president of Harvard was trying to tell the Senator an incident was under investigation and she couldn't comment further on it. So much of this stuff is to score political points. Give people the time to answer a question.
Absolutely brilliant questioning and shaming!
Lisa is right lip service is cheap. Harvard seems to have gone way too Woke and needs to be held accountable.
Is this the education Institution you want your children to attend.
It’s president can’t even answer a simple question!
They have the power to suspend these colleges accreditation, thus cutting off federal funding. They can demand resignations of the administration and hire qualified replacements. Have some balls!
Unfit to call her a university president 🤮🤮🤮
Well done!!
What is agonizingly painful is the lack of any personal accountability, any proactive action to stamp out this evil on their campuses. Their glib formalistic excuses are sickening and not fooling anyone. Why have we allowed such characterless creeps to run elite universities?
They should have a panel to discuss a possible salary plan for her...no action as far as money transfer..just on going discussions...
Genious!
Excellent questioning from Lisa - shocking answers from Gay. ACTION, not rhetoric!!! Surely that is easy to understand!!!!
Yes Ms. McClaim bravo👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
The dr didn’t “catch” the question 😂,
Lisa is asking but no one has a clear answer. Tells a lot about the teachings at Harvard.
This has been going in for many years and nothing was done.
they getting paid too much ....hush money !
There are hundreds of videos of this questioning - not to one single question this woman gave in answer what has been even close to acceptable! The students having committed these actions have to be expelled - together with the president of the institution, because she obviously isn’t fit for the job!
She says stuff , but does nothing , so she’s a liar and is hurting people, she should be sued and arrested for letting people be hurt !!
Bravo Lisa McClain! Your authority over these hypocrites give us hope!
Thank you Lisa McClain !
