Right.
The other problem is The Federalist doesn't mind getting the facts wrong if it helps stir up resentment.
Consider elite Harvard University, for example, which refuses to use its eye-popping $41 billion endowment to ease tuition burdens on its students...
Harvard has one of the most generous student financial aid programs anywhere. They do use their endowment to help students.
While stiffing students, the cash-flush university even took $8 million in taxpayer bailout money intended for small businesses...
The money wasn't intended for small businesses, that's the PPP. This money was specifically for higher education as part of the CARES Act.
And the $8m Congress gave Harvard was to go half to the university and half to students. Harvard gave it all to the students.
I completely understand click bait and that anger and fear are what get people riled up, but this level of dishonest, lazy and factually wrong writing is an insult to the readers.
Unfortunately it's typical of The Federalist.
Agreed. Though if you’ve heard Trump talk about it, you know they are just following his lead, as he has outright said the money was intended for small businesses and if harvard doesn’t return it they’ll find other ways to even it out.
He also completely fillibustered a question on pass through tax breaks for pass-through hedge funds and RE investments.
“And the $8m Congress gave Harvard was to go half to the university and half to students. Harvard gave it all to the students.”
How NICE of Harvard...that’s our TAX money...
This ignorance by some in here is getting tiresome
