Unabated censorship from the halls of Harvard.
Why do moneyed people continue to support the desecration of American values through their financial affiliations with so-called higher institutes of learning?
To turn the rudder of a nation one begins burrowing deeply into esteemed centers of knowledge- from here flows all results called the high degrees of inculcation which naturally become the fabric of power.
Time for Trump to start looking at ALL publicly-funded higher ed and its insatiable lust for pure Progressivism.
