Rep. Elise Stefanik gained fame in December 2023 for her grilling of the presidents of Ivy League universities in congressional hearings on the vicious antisemitism that broke out on university campuses following the October 7 massacre.
The presidents’ outrageous responses, including refusing to unequivocally say that calling for the genocide of the Jewish people violates their institutions’ code of conduct, led to the resignation of Harvard President Claudine Gay and University of Pennsylvania President Liz Magill.
On Wednesday, Stefanik questioned several university presidents, including Haverford College President Wendy Raymond, whose responses seemed scripted. She failed to provide even one example of disciplinary action taken against numerous and severe incidents of antisemitism at Haverford since October 7, 2023. [See videos below.]
Stefanik later posted a photo of the flashcard! Raymond was using during the hearing, writing: “The president of Haverford showed up to a congressional hearing on antisemitism with flashcards of pre-written answers. Not convictions. Not moral clarity. Flashcards.”
“This is what higher ed leadership looks like now—scripted, spineless, and coached to the bone.”

I can’t even listen to this……
Ywn sounds completely immature
Zionism does not make any sense at all!!!
It’s where these selfish leaders want to use the ethnicity of Torah to Trump kill and steal from others….
If you can use religion as a basis for ethnic cleansing then kal vchomer the arabs can…..
Zionism makes no sense at all….
Your blood isn’t cleaner then anybody else on earth ….
This isn’t Torah ideally….
Comes ywn with an immature post…..
There is a famous picture of the Papa Rabbi a person living today with a poster that ” zionism is racism”….
And it is to any God fearing mesorah goer…
The problem in the university today is that zionism has gotten so much into the blood of the community, it is getting important for these kids to differentiate it with anti semitism semitism
To the previous anonymous post from “.”
What in the world does anything that you say have to do with the video.
Also, do you have any idea of what is going on on campuses. The jews who are now hiding their Judaism because of the hatred and fear. have you spoken to them.
I live <1 mile from such colleges and it is a poachad. I hear grandparents telling theor grnadchildren to hide their Judaism. Students and teachers are afraid of getting beaten up, and humiliated and rioted against.
This has nothing to do with Zionism.
You are a fool and I hope that you remain silent, as your talk would encourage antisemitism.
And no the Jews and the Israelis have not performed any ethnic cleansing on any arab state or any people in the past two thousand years, so do not attack a people for defending themselves.
I wonder if you are really jewish or just pretending. I wonder if your ancestors were yotzai Mitzrayim.
(sorry for the harshness, but I suffer along with the college students and the jewish teachers)
