Harvard slammed for threatening The Post in bid to keep Claudine Gay plagiarism scandal secret: ‘Shameful’
NY Post ^ | 24/12/23 | Ryan King and John Christenson

Harvard University has come under fire amid revelations it sought to thwart The Post’s investigation of Claudine Gay’s alleged plagiarism and cleared her of such accusations before even conducting an investigation.

Rep. Jim Banks, (R-Ind.) who sits on the House Education and the Workforce Committee, which has been scrutinizing the Ivy League school, called the aggressive attempt to suppress The Post’s investigation “shameful.”

“Harvard has been terrified of losing donations and taxpayer funding since they were exposed for harboring antisemitism,” he told The Post.

“Claudine Gay claimed to support free speech and truthful inquiry in her congressional testimony, but now the university is threatening journalists and lying to protect its reputation and over $50 billion endowment.”

A law firm representing the elite university sent The Post a threatening legal letter in late October, dubbing accusations that Gay plagiarized from other academics “demonstrably false” and insisting that her work was “cited and properly credited.”

Harv-tards ain’t easy to love
And they’re harder to hold
They’d rather string you along
Bluff you ‘til you fold
Frat rings and bull-sh!t and sheepskin diplomas
And besides he’s gay
If you don’t understand him, he doesn’t make sense
Even Republican, he’ll back Mike Pence

Mamas, don’t let your babies grow up to be Harv-tards
Don’t let ‘em drink lattes they bought at Starbucks
Let ‘em drive tractors and eighteen-wheel trucks
Mamas don’t let your babies grow up to be Harv-tards
Their heads are so far up their a@@es
That they think it’s fresh air
When they pass gasses that muss up their hair
They’l swim up stream to savor the smell.
Harv-tards like nasty bland soy sh!t
And breathing through masks
Illegal aliens, and children
made slaves to their lust
Them that don’t know him
Won’t like him and them that do
Sometimes won’t know how to take him
Always wrong, sometimes evil
But his pride won’t let him
See things to make him see the light

Mamas, don’t let your babies grow up to be Harv-tards
Don’t let ‘em drink lattes they bought at Starbucks
Let ‘em drive tractors and eighteen-wheel trucks
Mamas don’t let your babies grow up to be Harv-tards
Their heads are so far up their a@@es
That they think it’s fresh air
When they pass gasses that muss up their hair
They’l swim up stream to savor the smell.

The same, though it depends on the context.

The sunshine on the institution is quite refreshing. There is a shortage of shadowed halls and offices in these factories of social regulation and profit. These are the purveyors of the living off of the masses cabal.

The first rule about Progressive Club, is to not draw attention to Progressive Club.

She will be dealt with by the enforcement arm of the left. Maybe the Seth Rich plumbers are free?

You have to wonder, I mean really start to question. If this person plagiarized from others work, then she was to lazy to paraphrase and cite. Then if they are willing to do this at Harvard, why do we think she even wrote any of it? Did she actually do the work, or did someone else do it for her. Has anyone checked the style to see if it is consistent with her speech or known written work?

Does the President of Harvard represent a wholly derived or manufactured person put into place because of color and sex?

Disgraced “Harvard president,” Claudine Gay, built
a towering ghetto-nurtured DEI empire on campus.

Source-—12/21/23 FR thread

In one example, Gay commissioned a “Task Force on Visual Culture and Signage” after the death of George Floyd in 2020. This task force later released a series of recommendations for engaging in what it referred to as the “historical reckoning with racial injustice.”

Among its recommendations reportedly included a mandate to change “spaces whose visual culture is dominated by homogenous portraiture of white men.”

It also said administrators should “refresh” the walls of Annenberg Hall, which “prominently display a series of 23 portraits, none of [which] depict women, and all but three of [which] depict white men.”

The task force never explained who the white men were or why they were on the walls of Annenberg Hall in the first place. The only reasons for the removal of these paintings appeared to be due to their skin color and sex, according to white-biased Gay.

Last year, Gay launched an initiative within the Faculty of Arts and Sciences for “de-naming” any “space, program, or other entity” deemed racist by the faculty and administration.

Moreover, deeming such entities “racist” would be “based on the perception that a namesake’s actions or beliefs were ‘abhorrent’ in the context of current values,” meaning that Harvard would use presentism in order to pass judgment on individuals who lived hundreds of years ago.

“Since then, the university has grappled with denaming multiple buildings, including Winthrop House, named after John Winthrop, governor of the Massachusetts Bay Colony, and his great grandson, also John Winthrop, a Harvard professor and president,” Rufo pointed out.

In another example, Gay, as president of Harvard, is leading a “sprawling DEI bureaucracy,” otherwise known as Diversity, equity, and inclusion, which “seeks to influence how students speak, think, and behave in relation to race.”

The CRT expert noted that....... Harvard has deleted nearly all DEI materials from its website....... following Gay’s disastrous congressional testimony, in which she declined to say whether advocating for the genocide of Jews is permissible on campus.

Recovered DEI documents through an Internet archive show that Harvard’s diversity administrators urge students to internalize the Critical Race Theory narrative, which is that America is systemically racist, riddled with white-baiting code words like “police brutality,” “white supremacist violence,” and the “weaponization of whiteness.”

Students have also been encouraged to “unpack” their so-called “white” and “male” privileges, and to consider their “white fragility,” which ghetto-nurtured Gay’s DEI documents say is derived from “the privilege that accrues to white people living in a society that protects and insulates them from race-based stress.”

As Breitbart News reported, Gay has been facing nationwide scrutiny since the October 7 Hamas terrorist attacks against Israel due to her failure to properly respond to the matter.

The Harvard leadership botched its statement after more than 30 of its student groups signed a pro-terror later blaming Israel for the terrorist attack against itself.

Gay later delivered a disastrous testimony during a congressional hearing regarding antisemitism alongside the presidents of University of Pennsylvania and Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).

Now, the Harvard president’s own Ph.D. dissertation is being called into question over allegations of plagiarism.

It’s way past time to start taxing these endowments. You know, for the children.

“taxing these endowments”

Seize them—and give reparations to every white male in America.

They’ll have to actually be white, and wear MAGA hats, and do something unspeakable to her while using the “n” word. She’ll think it’s staged, until she stops breathing. Traffic light or storefront cam will catch it all. Later, they’ll take off the disguises, the elevator shoes, shoulder pads and fake southern accents, and make themselves scarce.

The latest memes have: “Not to brag, but I didn’t go to Harvard.”

The Poison Ivy League have made their bed.

The Truth shall set you free. Harvard has become corrupt—it is now just a very high priced diploma mill. Check the right boxes you get a Doctorate—if you do not, you never get far. Good news if your Black, Gay, or Latinx but Bad if your White, Jewish, or Asian.

Seize ALL Harvard endowment money. Use it to pay off student loans incurred to pursue WORTHLESS university degrees.

Chase everyone off the campus. Seize the entire Harvard campus and use it to house illegal foreign trespassers awaiting deportation from the USA.

The people of Harvard fully support the trespassers. Let their entire campus be forfeited for their treason to the nation.

Let this be a lesson for all future traitors to the United States of America.

By “checking off all the boxes” that included: “lefty loon”

Any conservative, including black conservatives, would have been excluded.
