Thats not exactly how this went down was it. You're lying. Money given to universities is applied for by those universities. They have to comply with federal law and regulations to get said money. MIT refused. So the administration said "Fine no money. It will be allocated to a college or university that WILL follow federal law." This had NOTHING to do with Trump.

I read the Trump administration's requirements for funding. I agree with the asks: no transgender considerations, no race based woke policies, or any similar leftist admissions. If MIT is becoming a leftist version of Hillsdsle College, I'm ok with that. thehill.com/homenews/educati…

So proud of MIT, where many in my family became engineers and went on to make a better world.

“We found $500,000 of American taxpayer money for electric busses in Rwanda. We found $3.6 million for pastry cooking classes and dance focus groups for male prostitutes in Haiti.

"Protect Kamala Harris"? Stupid name..... but.... Next we remove the tax exempt status and tax the endowment. She won't seem quite so brilliant then.

I think it's hilarious how many Jews actually stick with the Democrat party even though Trump has still done more for the Jewish people than any president we've ever had, why is that?

You mean aligning with Title VI and the US Constitution? You consider conforming with the law and the Constitution to be "Trump's agenda"? Me, too!

Trump has big plans for that money that will provide alternative trade school opportunities for students that have no desire to attend college.

I note that you don't address the failures of MIT or the policies that Kornbluth protects. All you can praise is that "she stood up to Trump". Tells us all we need to know.

You folks virtue signal for upholding immorality and encouraging vice. There is No Virtue in that. You are living and thinking as pagans do. So sad that our premier institutions have lost their moral compass.

Thank you MIT. Stunning that each and every college and university hasn't indicated an understanding of the seriousness of the moment. Resisting fascism should not be a difficult decision.
