Description

New York University said it is withholding the diploma of a student who condemned “genocide” in Gaza while delivering a graduation speech Wednesday – a move the university called a violation of the student’s commitment to comply with school rules. Logan Rozos told members of his graduating class that “as I search my heart today in addressing you all … the only thing that is appropriate to say in this time and to a group this large is a recognition of the atrocities currently happening in Palestine.” NYU “strongly” denounced “the choice by a student at Gallatin School’s graduation,” university spokesperson John Beckman said in a statement after the Wednesday ceremony. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss how Zionists have become the “woke right” in going after the speech of Palestine supporters.

I’m MAGA and I’m not in favor of the foreign regime currently ruling our country. If the young man said something I hated, I would still support his right to say it.

It’s hilarious that NYU will claim he hasn’t earned a diploma, but then be presented with video of his valedictorian speech. Any employer would be lucky to have this person, quite literally the top of their entire class, and this video is proof, not a diploma.

Why do people insist on calling it a “war”? Wars are fought between armies and combatants.
