A Fundraising campaign on the crowd-sourcing site Givendgo has raised over $ 15,000 to a Temple University student intended to lead a legal match against Barstol sports founder Dave Portnoy.

The student, Mo Khan, was thrown into national controversy after Portnoy accused Khan of sending a video to his Instagram story showing a waitress inside Barstool Sanous Street Bar holding a sign that read “F — the Jews.”

Portnoy initially offered to send the student on a trip to Auschwitz to learn about the Holocaust in response to his alleged role in the incident, but Khan rejected. Instead, the 21-year-old collects money for legal defense at Givendgo.

However, a video that Khan published on the X Advertising campaign received a social note after Portnoy contested the student’s account of what happened.

Giverendgo co -founder Jacob Wells has told Pakinomist Digital that the company will “investigate” the validity of the campaign.

“We want to make sure that campaigns are as truthful as possible, so we take reports of disputes seriously, we have our verification team that can see, and we would be happy to look at this as well,” Wells said, admitting that he did not previously knew about Portnoy’s dispute and societal note on Khan’s post.

“It is not our responsibility or job necessarily to invoice about every single campaign to the ninth degree, so there is a balance there, but we will commit to performing our verification process … We will definitely commit to examining the campaign that we would do any other campaign and go after making sure it is truthful as it can be placed in a platform like ours.”

Wells added that if Khan mistakenly represented the events that led to his fundraiser in the campaign overview, it could “be” reason for the removal of the campaign.

“It might be. I hate making hypothetics because there are so many variables in these situations,” Wells said.

“If there are creepy examples of direct lies in campaign stories, it would certainly be a condition of service violation and something we would seriously consider for removal.”

Khan claimed in his video that he had nothing to do with bringing the sign to the bar and simply “reporting” about it. Khan also expressed anti-Israeli conviction in Rant.

“Although I had nothing to do with the sign that came out, nor do I know who did, I know the sign was provocative because it reminds people of a lot of the unfair things that Israel is doing around the world, which led me to report on it,” Khan said, later added, “Israel kills thousands of people daily!”

Portnoy reinstated Khan’s video that contested Khan and called the student “a liar.”

“This guy is a flat liar. I talked to him on the phone with his friend and they both owned it up to it and cried about it. He lawyer after talking to his family,” wrote Portnoy in response to Khan’s post on X.

Khan has since responded to Portnoy to X and contested the founder’s claim that the student has retained a lawyer and cried over the phone.

The original community note on Khan’s post read, “The story is different from the story, which he originally told Dave Portnoy, to the point where Portnoy called him a ‘liar’, and included links to Portnoy’s response and a New York Post article covering the exchange.

However, the post seems to have a new community note that points out another factor in Khan’s history as it relates to the incident.

The new community note now sounds, “More events of Mo Khan who commit anti -Semitic actions have emerged online, including him throwing quarters at Jewish students at Temple University.” The new note includes links to an NBC Philadelphia story about the incident, but this article does not mention any of Khan’s previous anti -Semitic behavior.

Still, the new note also points out that Khan conducted an interview on a podcast run by Stew Peters known to have and spread anti -Semitic beliefs, including the operation of the site “Dontbeajew.com.

Temple University President John Fry seemed to condemn Khan’s interview in a statement.

“Yesterday we became aware that a student participated in an interview with a media personality that has a history of producing extreme anti -Semitic and racist content,” Fry said. “The content of this interview was both shaking and deeply offensive. Anti -Semitism is not tolerated by Temple.”

Temple has confirmed that it suspended two students as part of its investigation into the case. Khan has said he has been suspended by the university.

Khan is not charged with any crime. Philadelphia Police said they collected information about the incident earlier this week.
