“I want to be as clear as I can that the University of Rochester strongly denounces the recent display”
This story is a huge scandal, not that you’d know it from the liberal media coverage.

University of Rochester addresses hundreds of ‘wanted’ posters for Jewish faculty members posted around campus
The University of Rochester said hundreds of “wanted” posters seeking Jewish members of faculty were found posted around campus in recent days.
In an update Wednesday, the Department of Public Safety (DPS) said it believes all the wanted posters, found in buildings across campus, including classroom spaces, have been removed, but anyone who finds more should contact the department.
DPS Chief Quchee Collins said in a statement that the department has identified “several persons of interest,” including “current students, individuals whose current enrollment status is unclear, and other individuals,” as it continues to investigate the incident.
The posters reportedly listed Jewish faculty members, including senior university leaders and members of the Board of Trustees, saying they are “wanted” for alleged “war crimes,” as the Israeli military continues its operation against Hamas terrorists in Gaza launched in response to the Oct. 7, 2023 attacks. Some posters accused those Jewish faculty members of “ethnic cleansing” and encouraging the “displacement of Palestinians,” or of perpetuating “racism” and “hate speech,” USA Today reported.
“I want to be as clear as I can that the University of Rochester strongly denounces the recent display of ‘wanted’ posters targeting senior university leaders and members of our faculty, staff, and Board of Trustees,” University President Sarah Mangelsdorf said in a statement Tuesday. “This act is disturbing, divisive, and intimidating and runs counter to our values as a university.”
“Furthermore, several of those depicted appear to have been targeted because they are members of our Jewish community. We view this as antisemitism, which will not be tolerated at our University,” she added. “This isn’t who we are. This goes against everything we stand for and we have an obligation to reject it.”

Expulsions, or it’s all mummery.
Consider yourself lucky
EVERY single one of the anti-Semites who put those posters up agree with Tucker Carlson 100% on every Jew related issue.
Seeing what you look like to every decent human being on this planet should be a golden opportunity to extract a certain head from Tucker Carlson’s anus and stop being a cheerleader for anti-Semitism on the right.
Every… 100%… Every… ?
These rabid, irrational, furry idiot Palestinian flag waving communists?
You must be a genius to know all this so certainly.

I could go on but when it comes to anti-Semitism Tucker is in exactly the same place as other neo-Nazis (No you can’t be the man who only hosts people he agrees with and requires they only discuss his select topics on his show and then do a softball uncritical promotion tour of neo-Nazis without being one yourself).
Tucker Carlson is a neo-Nazi.
Get your head out of his ass before it is too late, he doesn’t have a single distinguishing issue besides his hatred for America, willingness to lie about history and his anti-Semitism.
If you want Howard Zinn America hating about how the atom bomb was genocide go to Howard Zinn; be honest about how you feel about the stars and stripes.
It’s just Danny hijacking a thread to beat his own hobbyhorse.
Do it in private in your basement, Danny.
The subject is anti-Semitism jackass and because you are backing an actual Nazi for influence in the Republican party you should explain yourself.
As long as you back Tucker Carlson you are as bad or worst than any of the campus protestors.
They don’t know any better you have no such excuse you just like Nazis.
