It’s not like Harvard doesn’t have ultra rich alumni to tap for donations or anything Harvard keep fighting- you have the resources other institutions don’t have in order to stand up and stay open

Who is Donald Trump truly hurting when he vindictively pulls “another $1 billion in federal grants and contracts for health research from Harvard” because they would not bow down to his heinousness? He’s hurting every person in the U.S. & around the world! We will all suffer without that research.

The public at large doesn't understand how much serious damage is being done to our ability to develop new treatments for infectious diseases, cancer, etc.. Universities provide the critical basic science that is simply too risky for the private sector to invest in.

What he “can’t” do is entirely subjective at this point. It’s now about what he can get away with, whether it’s legal or Constitutional is completely irrelevant. As long as no one stops him, he will do it.

Where’s all this “savings going?” Are the savings in a bank somewhere? Is it all just on paper for a proposed budget? Are taxes going down? Where’s the money? And Dems and R’s in congress better take a trip to Fort Knox asap and take a tally.

he has and is intimidated by those who are learned, smart, intelligent human beings who question, rationalize, debate & can face opposition without name calling or gaslighting or throwing a punch-he has no patience or cognitive skills to think things thru-slightly autistic like his son?-

I bought a sweater at the official Harvard shop, to supprt their resistance against the Trump administration. A small act of resistance, everbody should. Europe stands with you #jesuisharvard #keepfighting #againsttrump

Harvard has $53 billion endowment. They don’t need our charity. They’ve admitted the kids of the worst people in the world because they wanted their money. They’ve educated a lot of those who are destroying American education right now. I’m glad they’re fighting Trump, but they’re not innocent.

I know they have deep pockets. To me it’s about ideological support to resist Trump and the morality of current students. They cannot be blamed for alumni who took the wrong turn, or a rotten system.

I disagree. They can be blamed for what their alumni do. They didn’t take a wrong turn. They were terrible people to begin with and Harvard let them in because their daddies were rich or powerful.

Trump is a stupid person who has no concept of the big picture. Free speech doesn't exist unless it's his. He has no clue what these universities do. He is focused on the Jew hating rallys the Administrators failed to control and failed to protect their Jewish students. This is what it's about. Oops

When he got elected for the first time in 2016,he fumbled & blundered through,up until 2020 elections with 'now famous' ham-handed approach to #Covid_19 He then petulantly lead J6 Insurrection!.The signals were all there.Why did the voter's elect him for the second time?.As you sow, so you reap!🧐

This is how a malignant narcissist and sociopath like Trump bullies people. You’re supposed to comply without question and bend the knee. We will not. Moreover, we will work to destroy all the businesses who supported Trump with boycotts. Anyone who gave money to this man is a pariah.

FAFO. And Trump is F*cking around as nobody has ever done before. He will be remembered as the president that tried to delete democracy in the States, and to start a big tech tyranny.

“(Trump) is destroying one of our winningest exports: higher education. In dollar terms, last year, the United States sold more educational services to the rest of the world than it sold in natural gas and coal combined.” Catherine Rampell
