Shailene Rodriguez, who was expelled last year from Hunter College for threatening a New York Post reporter with a machete, has been fired again from her last position at Cooper Union.
This time she was fired for her anti-Israel statements. The troubled “professor” had posted information about “Zionists” on social media and sent an email to her students about finishing her studies at the college.
The New York Post reported:
She already had a machete – and now she's got an axe.
Shailene Rodriguez, the crazy professor who was caught on camera holding a blade to a Washington Post reporter's neck in May, has been fired from her last teaching gig at Cooper Union for anti-Israel speeches, The Washington Post has learned.
“Cooper Union fired me for a social media post I made about ‘Zionists,’” Rodriguez, 47, wrote in an email to students a week after the start of the spring semester.
“It is not clear what posts or comments led to her ban, but in January Rodriguez participated in a City University of New York committee for Palestine and encouraged protesting landlords and business people with ties to Israel. Critics said it made anti-Semitic tropes. The New York Post reported.
Pro-Palestinian student groups were vocal that her expulsion amounted to oppression, but it brought relief to Jewish students on Cooper Union's campus.
The bigger question is why would any college hire this violent and dangerous woman?
In May 2023, Rodriguez cursed at pro-life students and threatened a reporter with a machete, TGP reported.
A New York Post reporter knocked on Shailene Rodriguez's apartment door in New York City last May.
The aggressive pro-abortion professor flipped out and threatened the reporter.
He watches:
With a violent attack like that, she avoided prison time through a plea deal.
Shailene Rodriguez, 47, will avoid prison and likely won't have a criminal record for holding a machete to New York Post reporter Reuven Fenton's neck in May.
The plea deal included six months of pathetic treatment provided by corrupt Bronx prosecutors. This is New York, after all, so it's no surprise that such madness can occur in the “justice” system.
