You know, those Squad members could be expelled with a few Democrats voting with the Republicans. But it would be a smart move, so they won’t do it.

File this under “the Democrats are evil, the Republicans are stupid” There should be massive fundraiser emails going out right now, and Republican candidates should already be setting up their campaign to take those seats with a huge push behind them from the national party.
Saw on Hannity last night (paraphrase here):
Hannity: It’s a shame Prof. that Harvard has come to this. What was once an institution that must have been a terrific honor for you to be a member of its faculty…
Prof. Alan Deshowitz: Sean, more like it was a honor for Harvard to host me as a professor.
I’ll let Harvard speak for itself.
We allowed Nazis to hold a parade on the streets of a community near Chicago that was home to many Holocaust survivors, or we at least once allowed such a thing.
We shall suffer persons making demonstrations critical of the people living in Israel at this dire time. If people want to express whatever opinions they want, we can form opinions about them. We do not need to stop them.
The Chancellor of the University of Wisconsin-Madison made a statement in support of the people of Israel, yes, but she also drew all of the usual moral equivalencies. I guess in her role speaking on behalf of the broader university community, she has to, but I don’t think her remarks showed much courage.
A former Provost of Stanford University and U.S. Secretary of State made a statement indicating support for our international ally, the State of Israel that showed how this is done, artfully and diplomatically sidestepping the equivalencies the UW-Madison Chancellor felt necessary to make.
Columnist and blogger Ben Shapiro’s recent video and written statement, however, shows enormous courage. I won’t speak for him nor quote nor paraphrase what he has to say. I encourage looking it up and viewing or reading his statement for oneself.
