On Friday, the New York Times reported that two Trump administration sources said an April 11 letter signed by three federal officials to Harvard President Alan Garber was “unauthorized” and should not have been sent.
The letter demanded the Massachusetts university come under government oversight and make changes related to student and faculty conduct, admissions, alleged antisemitism on campus and diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) programs. 


Harvard on Saturday pushed back on the assertion that the letter was sent in error, pointing out that the Trump administration had “doubled down” on its threats. After Harvard refused to comply with the letter’s demands, the Trump administration froze $2.2 billion in federal funding to the university and threatened to revoke its tax-exempt status.

TAKE A MOMENT AND APPRECIATE THE UNDERSTATED RESPONSE.

“It remains unclear to us exactly what, among the government’s recent words and deeds, were mistakes or what the government actually meant to do and say,” the university said Saturday in a statement to The Washington Post....

The White House did not respond to requests for comment, but a senior official there told the Times that the administration stood by the letter. White House senior policy strategist May Mailman said the turmoil over Harvard publicly rejecting the administration’s demands was overblown, and she faulted university leaders for not continuing discussions they had been having for weeks with the White House’s antisemitism task force.

NATCH! 

“It was malpractice on the side of Harvard’s lawyers not to pick up the phone and call the members of the antisemitism task force who they had been talking to for weeks,” Mailman said, according to the Times. “Instead, Harvard went on a victimhood campaign.”

I highlight, but prefer not to dwell on, the idea of the White House managing the affairs of a Private University to demonstrate the rock ribbed faith of MAGA in the wonders of a strong centralized federal government managing all facets of our daily lives - with a particular focus on Education and Culture. Preferably under the direction of photogenic bottle blondes.....who attended Harvard Law School as "diversity" selections.



Grifty seems obsessed with the concept of Suppliance.

He made a show of trying to make Zelensky beg.....to curry favor with Pootie....who cucked him, again.

The S&P is flopping around near 5,000 because Grifty insists the Chinese have to come to him.

Harvard has to reach out to soothe Grifty's feathers, ruffled entirely by his own incontinent idiocy.

What an unusually **** president.

Note the criterion...

The April 11 letter was a significant escalation of President Donald Trump’s clashes with Ivy League institutions and other nonprofit groups that his administration views as “woke,” according to three people who spoke with The Post on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the topic. Trump officials across the government have used their power to hand out harsh penalties, such as the growing number of student visa revocations and the president’s application of the Alien Enemies Act of 1798 to deport immigrants.

Can any of Grifty's witless toadies actually define the word "woke" - as employed by their YamDaddy?

I guess we'll have to wait for @*VegasVagina to do so...

Harvard......the school that is paying $900,000.00 a year to a black plagiarizing ex-president......that Harvard?
They should be discredited and shut down immediately for fraud and embezzlement.

one and the same...
 

The Biden Admin White House Channel changed millions of *dislikes* to *likes* during the wee hours of the morning after each of their daily press releases.
They also disabled all public comments.
Same goes for the vast majority of Liberal news sources....in recent years they have not allowed public comments.
The [[[DNC / MSM]]] denied that there was anything wrong with Biden's mental state.
Once it became obvious that they could no longer stick to that lie they forced Biden to bow out of the race so that they could install Harris as their new candidate without a single vote.

What were you saying about "accountability" again...?

A full paragraph buffet of snark, flair, and thesaurus-fueled fury. You are feeling bold today—dropping phrases like “photogenic bottle blondes,” and the other lame **** like you are trying to win a Pulitzer for Creative Derailment. Time for another official Bloom’s Taxonomy Evaluation, drenched in sarcasm and accuracy.

Bloom’s Taxonomy Evaluation #2:So, Mary, you gave us another fiery rant—an emotional casserole of news clippings, half-thought metaphors, and a few German mythology references no one asked for. Let’s grade it properly

.Level 1 – Remembering:
Sure, you remembered the article. You mentioned dates, people, and events. You even quoted the source. But everything beyond that was just you shaking the rage maracas again. So yes—you remembered… and immediately went into meltdown mode.

Level 2 – Understanding:
Nope. You didn’t explain the issue in a way that reflects actual comprehension. You mocked it. You twisted it. You danced around it with jokes about bottle blondes and diversity quotas. But there’s no explanation. No clarity. No meaningful takeaway. Just noise.

Level 3 – Applying and above:
We won’t even entertain these. You didn’t apply logic. You didn’t analyze contradictions. You didn’t evaluate arguments or offer a single solution. You just described Trump like a Bond villain and wrapped it all in literary cosplay.

Final Verdict: Bloom’s Level 1.2 — Parroted Facts with Flair. You remembered the article. Then you stapled your sarcasm to it and called it wisdom.
It wasn’t. 

If freezing Harvard’s funding and threatening its tax-exempt status was justified, what specific legal framework do you believe supports the federal government directly managing a private university’s internal policies—without violating the First Amendment or principles of institutional autonomy?

Dodge 119 coming up.
