So I think it's time for everybody who's watching and listening to understand very clearly that whatever you might think about the research breakthroughs that the great universities of the United States have historically been making, that those days are probably done. And the reason for that is because the researchers themselves, in a fit of absolutely craven, pathetic,

Howardists decided that they would promote, hire, and publish on the basis of these race, ethnicity, and sexual identity-based categories instead of sticking to merit. And that was true for the small-L liberal faculty members, for the progressives, and for the tiny proportion of people that were conservatives. How many faculty members stood up and refused to write DEI statements? None.

Like so few that you might as well just say none. Me. There's some other people too. And that's it. And it cost me my, essentially that cost me my career as a professor. There's no goddamn way I was going to write a DEI statement for a grant. That was never going to happen.

So now the researchers whine, well, you know, it was the government that said we had to write these DEI statements, and all we were doing was following the rules. It's like, you know, you guys are supposed to be leaders, and you're supposed to be ethical, and that's why the public supported you. And you weren't leaders, you were craven followers, and... you violated the public's trust.

And that's why Harvard admissions are plummeting and why no one gives a damn that your research funding is being cut. And it does suck because Harvard, for example, and many other universities, particularly in the States, were stellar places, but here we are. Harvard's stances have emboldened other universities with Columbia's acting president adopting a more defiant tone after initial concessions.

How brave can you get now that they have $53 billion behind them? Okay, so on to the New York Times. There's a terrible thing to say. So this is an article by Gina Collata and Jeremy Peters that was written in May 3rd, 2025 about Dr. Ellen Garber.

I'd probably like him if I met him, though I don't know if he'd like me. But that's beside the point. because we're talking about the institution, and he's required as the head of the institution to act as a representative of the institution. We'll adopt that analytic standpoint as we go through this. He is fighting Mr. Trump. I'm reading from the New York Times now.
