The University of California San Diego receives a “C” grade for having a Bias Reporting System but not a Bias Response Team. Bias Reporting Systems and Response Teams are systems or teams of faculty, staff, and sometimes law enforcement.
According to <a href="https://speechfirst.org/bias-reporting-systems/">SpeechFirst</a>, students are “encouraged to report ‘bias incidents’ to these boards (or teams) in the name of inclusion and tolerance, but it’s often unclear what the school considers ‘bias’ in the first place. Overly broad or vague definitions of bias put all kinds of speech at risk of being reported – even unpopular speech which is protected by the First Amendment.”

According to the <a href="https://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/campus-divestment-resolutions">Jewish Virtual Library</a>, since the start of the 2013-14 school year, the university’s student body has introduced three pieces of legislation that would require the university to divest from any Israeli company and from companies that do business with Israel. One piece of legislation passed while two failed.
Introducing these types of legislation often puts a target on Jewish and pro-Israel students and communities, fostering an environment vulnerable to antisemitism.

<a href="https://polisci.ucsd.edu/people/faculty/faculty-directory/adjunct-faculty/fletcher-profile.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Nathan Fletcher</a> is a Professor of Practice in the Department of Political Science at the University of California &#8211; San Diego. The University <a href="https://ucsdnews.ucsd.edu/feature/nathan_fletcher_named_first_professor_of_practice_at_uc_san_diego" target="_blank" rel="noopener">describes</a> the position as one that brings “distinguished professionals” who are “leaders in their fields.”  In addition, Fletcher serves as the <a href="https://www.sandiegocounty.gov/general/bos.html">Chair</a> of the San Diego County Board of Supervisors.
During an online strategy session with California Democratic Party leaders to oppose the ongoing efforts to recall Governor Gavin Newsom, Fletcher began his <a href="https://www.sandiegouniontribune.com/communities/east-county/santee/story/2021-02-11/santee-council-approves-letter-chastising-county-supervisor-nathan-fletcher" target="_blank" rel="noopener">remarks</a> referencing the January 6th riots on Capitol Hill.
According to <a href="https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/codes_displayText.xhtml?lawCode=CONS&amp;article=II" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Article II, Section 13-20 of the  California Constitution</a>, a sitting Governor of the state may be recalled, or voted out of office, in the middle of his term for virtually any reason. An election for governor is automatically triggered if petitioners gather enough signatures to match 12% of the total voter turnout of the previous Governor&#8217;s election, equivalent to 1.5 million signatures in 2021, within 160 days of initially filing the petition. As of February 2021, organizers <a href="https://www.ktvn.com/story/43421481/petition-to-recall-governor-gavin-newsom-passes-level-needed-to-potentially-trigger-recall-election">announced</a> that 1.8 million Californians have signed the recall petition.
Fletcher labels President Donald Trump an existential threat to our country, then proceeds to refer to conservatives that are taking part in the recall effort of Gov. Newsom as “Neo-Nazis” and white supremacists.
In the Zoom <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qyfhl9SLAjI&amp;ab_channel=KUSINews" target="_blank" rel="noopener">recording</a> that is listed below, Fletcher refers to the riots as “terrorism” and asks his fellow Democratic party members to denounce them. Fletcher references his combat experience as a Marine to draw parallels between his training to defend American embassies to the “storming” of the capitol by “enemies of America.”
<iframe loading="lazy" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/qyfhl9SLAjI" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>
&nbsp;
Describing the riots as a “direct attack on our democracy,” Fletcher assigns blame to Donald Trump as the inspiration for the riot at the Capitol.

Fletcher states that he and his fellow Democrats must take a stand against the groups that are encouraging violence on our democracy, which he lists as right-wing militia groups, the Proud Boys, and white nationalists.
In the same <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qyfhl9SLAjI&amp;ab_channel=KUSINews" target="_blank" rel="noopener">video</a> addressed to Democratic party officials and supporters, Fletcher goes on to state that individuals leading the recall efforts are linked to “neo-nazis, white supremacists, and members of right-wing militias.”

<a href="https://polisci.ucsd.edu/people/faculty/faculty-directory/adjunct-faculty/fletcher-profile.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Nathan Fletcher</a> is a Professor of Practice in the Department of Political Science at the University of California - San Diego. The University <a href="https://ucsdnews.ucsd.edu/feature/nathan_fletcher_named_first_professor_of_practice_at_uc_san_diego" target="_blank" rel="noopener">describes</a> the position as one that brings “distinguished professionals” who are “leaders in their fields.”  In addition, Fletcher serves as the <a href="https://www.sandiegocounty.gov/general/bos.html">Chair</a> of the San Diego County Board of Supervisors.

During an online strategy session with California Democratic Party leaders to oppose the ongoing efforts to recall Governor Gavin Newsom, Fletcher began his <a href="https://www.sandiegouniontribune.com/communities/east-county/santee/story/2021-02-11/santee-council-approves-letter-chastising-county-supervisor-nathan-fletcher" target="_blank" rel="noopener">remarks</a> referencing the January 6th riots on Capitol Hill.

According to <a href="https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/codes_displayText.xhtml?lawCode=CONS&amp;article=II" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Article II, Section 13-20 of the  California Constitution</a>, a sitting Governor of the state may be recalled, or voted out of office, in the middle of his term for virtually any reason. An election for governor is automatically triggered if petitioners gather enough signatures to match 12% of the total voter turnout of the previous Governor's election, equivalent to 1.5 million signatures in 2021, within 160 days of initially filing the petition. As of February 2021, organizers <a href="https://www.ktvn.com/story/43421481/petition-to-recall-governor-gavin-newsom-passes-level-needed-to-potentially-trigger-recall-election">announced</a> that 1.8 million Californians have signed the recall petition.

Fletcher labels President Donald Trump an existential threat to our country, then proceeds to refer to conservatives that are taking part in the recall effort of Gov. Newsom as “Neo-Nazis” and white supremacists.

In the Zoom <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qyfhl9SLAjI&amp;ab_channel=KUSINews" target="_blank" rel="noopener">recording</a> that is listed below, Fletcher refers to the riots as “terrorism” and asks his fellow Democratic party members to denounce them. Fletcher references his combat experience as a Marine to draw parallels between his training to defend American embassies to the “storming” of the capitol by “enemies of America.”

&nbsp;

Describing the riots as a “direct attack on our democracy,” Fletcher assigns blame to Donald Trump as the inspiration for the riot at the Capitol.

Fletcher states that he and his fellow Democrats must take a stand against the groups that are encouraging violence on our democracy, which he lists as right-wing militia groups, the Proud Boys, and white nationalists.

In the same <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qyfhl9SLAjI&amp;ab_channel=KUSINews" target="_blank" rel="noopener">video</a> addressed to Democratic party officials and supporters, Fletcher goes on to state that individuals leading the recall efforts are linked to “neo-nazis, white supremacists, and members of right-wing militias.”
