Import the Third World, become the Third World. That’s what we just saw. This won’t stop Trump. He’ll win the election if he’s not killed first. But it does mark the end of the fairest justice system in the world. Anyone who defends this verdict is a danger to you and your family.
@PrettyRonFlacko@Joey_MakG @PharaohOnX @hotshit617@SaycheeseDGTL DID I JUST READ THAT SOMEONE NEEDS TO TURN TO JESUS CAUSE THEY DONT SUPPORT A MURDERER? He's a loser. Nothing he ever did was a W. A professional L taker.
@LiqLeafLounge@SaycheeseDGTL Yikes.. what a loser. And I know someone gonna refute it so.. just know he's currently losing at life harder than LITERALLY ANY FREE MAN.
@jor6s@Ohambleton@JamesEsses@elonmusk Let me get this straight.. because I have an opposing opinion to you, it's no longer valid? Your entitled to your voice as much as I am.. but you don't actually have an actual response so you just try to invalidate my argument.
@Nadal_istheGOAT@DailyLoud Explain how that works.. almost all the guns in this country one has to worry about are unregistered. You can't regulate that.

On Sunday afternoon, Nicholas Carlson, the Global Editor-in Chief of Business Insider stated in an email to his staff that:
"The facts of the stories have not been disputed by Oxman or her husband Bill Ackman.
Ackman and others have raised concerns about our reporting process, as well as the motivation for publishing the stories."
Mr. Carlson is lying or he has been misled by others.
I personally disputed the facts (as well as the reporting process) of Business Insider's stories initially in an approximately one-hour conversation with a director of Business Insider on Sunday morning beginning at 10:01am.
I did so again in an about 35-minute or so conversation with Martin Varsavsky, a director of Axel Springer who called me unsolicited at 12:34pm later that day.
In the am call with the Business Insider director, he told me that Business Insider had already launched an investigation of the stories and the reporting processes around them.
In light of the investigation, I asked him to have Business Insider publicly release a statement to that effect as I thought it would help mitigate the reputational damage of the stories while they were being investigated.
He said he would discuss this request and the other issues I raised with his colleagues and get back to me within "an hour or so."
I made multiple efforts to reach the director by phone and by text when he did not call back within an hour or so.
I sent this series of texts to the director beginning at 1:33pm:
You promised to return my call in about an hour.
You need to withdraw the story now as you have an investigation pending regarding factual and other review. You need to put this out now. I just got off the phone with Martin [the director of Axel Springer who called me unsolicited] and he agrees.
What are you waiting for and why have you not called me back.
Every minute more damage is created.
The story is the number one trending story on X.
He responded
Thanks, Bill. I am working only on this. I will get back to you as soon as I can.
I responded:
We are the number one trending with 38.6k post and the princess of Wales is number 2 at 2,998 posts
Read this now please: [and I linked the below tweet]
x.com/BillAckman/sta…
Thanks, Bill. Reading now. And then will call you.
He finally called at 3:45pm, more than four hours after he said he would call.
On the call, he told me that Axel Springer would be putting out a statement about the investigation.
I was initially encouraged by what he had said, and asked if BI would be withdrawing the stories. He said that they would not be doing so at this time as they stand behind the stories.
Shortly, thereafter Axel Springer's statement was released which said in part:
“While the facts of the reports have not been disputed, over the past few days questions have been raised about the motivation and the process leading up to the reporting — questions that we take very seriously"
The fact that both the Editor in Chief of Business Insider and its owner Axel Springer have both falsely stated that the stories were not disputed have greatly contributed to the enormous reputational and emotional damage that have occurred to my wife @NeriOxman.
By making these statements, Business Insider and Axel Springer have effectively confirmed that their reporting is entirely factually accurate.
This could not be further from the truth.
In response to the initial Business Insider story, Neri issued a statement acknowledging that she had inadvertently omitted quotation marks in four paragraphs in her 330-page dissertation, all of which, however, were properly cited.
In addition, Neri acknowledged that she had inadvertently omitted to cite one paraphrased sentence in her 330-page dissertation.
Neri did, however, cite the same author whose citation she missed in each of the other eight times she referred to his work in her dissertation, which makes it clear that this one missed citation was unintentional.
In her statement, Neri graciously apologized for the punctuation errors and the missing citation.
Her statement can be found here:

Shortly after Neri issued her statement, Business Insider published the following headline and the materially false and misleading article which followed.
Neri Oxman admits to plagiarizing in her doctoral dissertation after BI report
According to Plagiarism.org:
to "plagiarize" means:
to steal and pass off (the ideas or words of another) as one's own
to use (another's production) without crediting the source
to commit literary theft
to present as new and original an idea or product derived from an existing source
In other words, plagiarism is an act of fraud. It involves both stealing someone else's work and lying about it afterward (emphasis added)."
Neri did not do any of the above listed offenses.
Plagiarism is one of the most serious crimes you can accuse a professor of doing. A finding of plagiarism is catastrophic to a professor's career. It is also catastrophically damaging to a former tenured member of the faculty, even if she leaves university, and she founds a company based on her academic research.
If Neri in fact committed fraud and stole other people's ideas, who would ever invest in or do business with her or her company?
Because of the career-ending and reputationally damaging nature of a plagiarism finding, universities take allegations of plagiarism extremely seriously and adjudicate these cases with extraordinary care in academic tribunals. These proceedings typically take six or months before a finding is made, and can take years to be resolved if litigation ensues.
The facts of each case are meticulously reviewed often with the benefit of separate counsel representing the faculty member and the university.
Plagiarism is fraud. Fraud is a crime.
Neri admitted to making four clerical errors of punctuation and one missed footnote in her 330-page dissertation, and she apologized for doing so.
To this day, she has never admitted to plagiarism.
She has never committed fraud of any kind.
The following day, Business Insider sent a 7,000-word email alleging other purported plagiarism. The email was sent to Fran McGill, Pershing Square's head of communications, not to Neri Oxman or to her company.
The email subject heading states:
Journalist on deadline | Plagiarism by your wife
and the email begins:
"Dear Francis,
My colleagues and I have identified numerous additional examples of Dr. Oxman’s plagiarism and we plan to publish a story about them this evening."
The email continues for 12 more pages and 7,000 more words.
The email was received at 5:19pm after sundown last Friday.
The Business Insider story was published 91 minutes later.
The article makes novel and speculative assumptions about what is plagiarism including asserting that definitions of basic terms and words from Wikipedia and quotations from software and hardware manuals that describe products used in Neri's research are plagiarism.
Neri hired counsel yesterday and it is going to take weeks to properly respond to all of the assertions and factual misstatements and errors in all of the stories.
Business Insider's stories have been reposted and re-reported around the world in thousands of articles including on the front pages of the most important Israeli newspapers, where Neri spent the first 25 years of her life.
The Oxman plagiarism story was the number one trending story on X with 10 times the number of postings of the next most posted story. It remains one of the top read stories in the world.
As a result of the above, Neri has suffered catastrophic reputational damage, and enormous emotional harm.
I can't believe this is happening.
I was forwarded an email this morning from a reporter at Business Insider who noted that there are four paragraphs in my 330-page PhD dissertation: “Material-based Design Computation,” which I completed at @MIT in 2010,
dspace.mit.edu/handle/1721.1/…
where I omitted quotation marks
