The benefactor behind The T.W. Lewis Foundation, Tom Lewis, set the record straight on Friday about his decision to pull funding from the ASU-Barrett Center for Personal Development.
Lewis’ decision to pull the funding comes after the executive director of the Center said, in an opinion piece published in The Wall Street Journal, that she was being fired and the Center was closing because she organized an event featuring Charlie Kirk, Robert Kiyosaki and Dennis Prager.
Ann Atkinson noted that the February event “outraged” faculty members at ASU’s honors college, Barrett, which houses the center.
Lewis’ statement appears to support her claim to an extent.
“After seeing this level of left-wing hostility and activism, I no longer had any confidence in Barrett to adhere to the terms of our gift, and made the decision to terminate our agreement, effective June 30, 2023,” stated Lewis in a press release. “I regret that this decision was necessary, and hope that Barrett and ASU will take strong action to ensure that free speech will always be protected and that all voices can be heard.”

Yes, indeed.
I know I am!
I’ve been fed up and intolerant of The Left since at least March ‘04. That’s when I arrived in Iraq and observed the grotesque dichotomy between reality and the media’s portrayal to serve their sick and heartless political ends.
Thank you Mr Lewis, you are a great man. I wish America had more like you.
Money and the power of the purse speaks volumes, the people will make this happen, the people
Ah, the tolerant, inclusive left—at it again.
