Update: The administration put a freeze on $2.2 billion to Harvard.
Harvard will continue to accept Freshmen who need remedial math. [They offer remedial math to Freshman.] They will continue to take terrorists in from foreign lands. DEI will continue, and they won’t be “taken over by the government.”
Harvard University rejected a proposed deal with President Donald Trump, putting $9 billion in federal funding at risk.
The Trump administration proposed conditions Harvard must follow to receive funding, including eliminating DEI initiatives and screening for international students “supportive of terrorism and anti-Semitism.”
“No government — regardless of which party is in power — should dictate what private universities can teach, whom they can admit and hire, and which areas of study and inquiry they can pursue,” Harvard President Alan Garber wrote in a note to the university community.
“Although some of the demands outlined by the government are aimed at combating antisemitism, the majority represent direct governmental regulation of the ‘intellectual conditions’ at Harvard,” Garber said.
The White House has also called on Columbia, Cornell, and Northwestern universities to discontinue the DEI practices or lose federal funding.
Okay then, cancel funding. I don’t know why they get taxpayer funding anyway, especially with those outrageous tuitions. Then cancel their tax-free endowment.
If they are so private, they don’t need anything from the government.
Great. Tax their $50.7 billion endowment. https://t.co/BcixPxc2NI

The question is being asked, why are Ivy League universities receiving massive federal subsidies? The answer is that Deep State Democrats have offered such money in exchange for a pledge to fully indoctrinate a core of students so as to prepare them for careers as hard-left federal bureaucrats.
(Typo Corrected) Harvard has an endowment of over $53 billion. So why should the American taxpayers ever be forced to give money to these elite, shit-don’t stink, eggheads? In fact, we should be trying to get our money back from these pr*cks.

None of the conditions Trump set have anything to do with restricting education. DEI is not education, it is discrimination. If Harvard is so interested in diversity, it should consider making a white Christian president for a change. Harvard’s rules are not applied by Harvard to itself.
They are called an “elite” university and that word has poisoned their minds into thinking they are far superior than anyone else. They once had such a reputation, but no longer does that exist.
The education is about the same in all schools. The reputation is the difference.
Tucker and others have shown the power, money and privilege which gets people into Harvard. It’s much more than DEI (AA), it is about what family you come from.
