At Northwestern, more than 100 Jewish faculty joined together to call the Trump administration's threats unwarranted and "deeply offensive." They said it would be wrong "to punish Northwestern financially or to limit academic freedom in the name of protecting Jewish students.".

The principled departure of @RuthMarcus a huge loss for the Post. Her words, her example - and what the decision to spike her column says about the thin skin of the Post's owner and those who carry out his wishes.

The tragic self-destruction of a great newspaper continues. I had the privilege of working with @RuthMarcus for years and she is the best of the best. Whether you agree with her or not, she is the model of journalistic excellence and integrity.
