Stefanik applauds resignation of UPenn President Liz Magill: 'One down. Two to go'

Rep. Elise Stefanik, R-N.Y., applauded the resignation of University of Pennsylvania President Liz Magill on Saturday.

Magill resigned Saturday after days of criticism following her appearance at a Congressional hearing Tuesday, where she failed to give a clear answer to Stefanik's question asking if calls for the genocide of Jews would violate university conduct.

"One down. Two to go," Stefanik posted to X Saturday. "This is only the very beginning of addressing the pervasive rot of antisemitism that has destroyed the most "prestigious" higher education institutions in America. This forced resignation of the president of @Penn is the bare minimum of what is required. These universities can anticipate a robust and comprehensive Congressional investigation of all facets of their institutions negligent perpetration of antisemitism including administrative, faculty, funding, and overall leadership and governance."

"@Harvard and @MIT do the right thing. The world is watching," she added.

While I understand the desire to have the presidents of @harvard, @MIT, and @Penn resign/be fired as a result of their outrage testimony, in a sense this is a small and insignificant outcome. 

The parasitic ideas that led to their grotesque testimony have been festering in academia for decades, and have fully choked the larger culture.  Getting rid of one administrator will simply result in another equally cowardly and lobotomized leader taking over.  There is a long conveyor belt of such academic administrators.  The battle can only be won on the ideological and epistemological battlefields.

In the same way that Lysenkoism or blood letting are rejected ideas, the same must occur with all of the idea pathogens that define Woke Progressive Ideology.

I Have Extremely Good News . Liz Magill — who said that calling for the genocide of Jews can only be identified as harassment based on “context” — resigned as president of the University of Pennsylvania.

However, the fact that she will remain as a faculty member at Penn Carey Law is concerning.
This move comes after a donor pulled $100 million from Penn.
It’s also important to note that Dave McCormick, PA Republican senatorial candidate, called for Magill’s resignation, while Senator Bob Casey did not.
