Wonderful! Just what young people in America need to learn more about ... how to support terrorist organizations and hate America and its allies.

Exactly what does Mehdi Hasan bring to the table anyone needs to hear? He's so radical, he couldn't even last on MSNBC.
Seriously, @Georgetown? This is your guy? https://t.co/2AZ9FnTBGd pic.twitter.com/CORSpFp1XW

They really need to explain this situation. What do they expect to come from this conversation. The man is a liar. He misrepresents the Republican party and the American people in general on a regular basis. This is not a person one can engage in intellectual debate. He calls names and then takes his ball and goes home. I agree there should be diversity of thought on campus if you are dealing with a person who engages in honest debate. Mehdi would never.
What a major embarrassment for @Georgetown. Is this kind of groveling to a Hamas stooge really what the university administration wants to defend? Visiting fellows should be respected experts in their field(s), not unabashed supporters of despicable organizations such as Hamas. https://t.co/HuapQDEbL5

Why are taxpayer supported institutions of learning allowed to receive donations from foreign nations? There is a conflict of interest. https://t.co/Etj1jBNuq3

A Qatar-linked propagandist promoted by a Qatar-linked university. The academia-policy-media nexus has become a highly efficient machine for Qatari interests. https://t.co/NZZTECnZa7

🚨 Dear Linda, @EDSecMcMahon Please stop giving Georgetown our money.

Georgetown University has now hired Mehdi Hasan as a visiting fellow.
In 2025, Georgetown is still under investigation for rampant antisemitism on campus. They committed to "doing better" so they could… https://t.co/dlVenNrVfx pic.twitter.com/94PIuCh1uE
American taxpayers should not be supporting institutions who host terrorists. Full stop.
That's interesting. I guess he declined the standing offer from Auschwitz University. https://t.co/qFB1kqrBmt

Since we're talking about norms-breaking nowadays, here's a Catholic university -- OK, a Jesuit university, one that in theory at one point was Catholic -- that hires a Hamas apologist. https://t.co/UVpsyrxYqU

Georgetown hates Israel and Jews. https://t.co/cB3BFV2AT5

That seems to be the only rational takeaway at this point.

It appears Qatar is paying off U.S. academic institutions like Georgetown to push Islamist propaganda. https://t.co/HCbEMS8HTX

The Trump Administration should look into this.
