Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-NY) says she is proud to join a growing list of conservatives who have been banned or shunned by college campuses. On Tuesday, the Harvard Kennedy School informed the conservative lawmaker that they have decided to boot her from the school's Senior Advisory Committee for what they referred to as her baseless claims of voter fraud during the 2020 presidential election. Stefanik was in Harvard College's class of 2006 and has been mentoring students ever since.
In a message to the Senior Advisory Committee of the Institute of Politics at Harvard Kennedy School, Dean Doug Elmendorf explained his decision to kick Stefanik off the panel. He added that he was still "grateful for her long and committed service."
Following this consideration, I spoke with Elise and asked her to step aside from the Senior Advisory Committee. My request was not about political parties, political ideology, or her choice of candidate for president. Rather, in my assessment, Elise has made public assertions about voter fraud in November’s presidential election that have no basis in evidence, and she has made public statements about court actions related to the election that are incorrect. Moreover, these assertions and statements do not reflect policy disagreements but bear on the foundations of the electoral process through which this country’s leaders are chosen.
In their conversation, Rep. Stefanik refused to resign, and so Elmendorf told her he would remove her from the panel himself.
"The decision by Harvard's administration to cower and cave to the woke Left will continue to erode diversity of thought, public discourse, and ultimately the student experience," Stefanik writes in a blunt new statement.

When are republicanbusinesses going to kick liberals out for “supporting the blatant lie that the racist Biden got more votes than Obama, more votes than any president ever”?
New World Order does not permit disagreement
Sigh. If only more of the GOP could be like her.
“Rather, in my assessment, Elise has made public assertions about voter fraud in November’s presidential election that have no basis in evidence”
The new litmus test!
Swear that you Believe in the Immaculate Election!
Grovel before your master Uncle Joe the Pedo!
If you do not, ALL your life is forfeit!
Unbelievable.
Harvard is a complete joke. Don’t waste your cash or life going there.
The big Soviet-style lie is that there was no fraud in the November election, and any and all who continue to believe and say so in public will be purged and silenced.
Keep on supporting colleges and universities. Bastions of free thought and inquiry. (sarc.)
They never referred to Russian Collusion as baseless.
Harvard should be burned to the ground and the earth salted. It’s graduates should become pariahs...
We have an acquaintance who reminded me the other night of the “proven russian interference” in the 2016 (s)election. No point in trying to convince this person about the 20+ month $40 million ‘muledeer’ investigation that resulted in ZERO results. Sad days ahead. 😯
Harvard is a den of sick twisted liberal commies. Good think she is out of that rat hole.
Alumni should suspend donations and parents should remove their kids from college until the Universities publicly acknowledge that the Democrats stole the 2020 presidential election.
Harvard’s against free thought and speech. Even when there is reason for discussion.
People need to sue and then demonstrate in court that allegations of voter fraud are backed by serious evidence.
Thousands of voter registrations have the same damn address.
Prima Facie evidence. The defense rests.
Seems as if the courts don’t give a crap and won’t even entertain the cases.
Why is it the woman who have balls.
Maybe the Harvard BIGS can tell us how thousands of dead people ‘voted’...
Having been a democrat AND a democrat precinct person - I know how it’s done... Let’s see if they can figure it out.
Maybe Harvard can bestow an honorary degree on Joe Fraser who voted in 2020, years after he died.
She forced Harvard’s hand which is good. I keep hearing about “baseless” claims of election problems but if you want the coverage it moved from zero to insufficient irregularities. There seem to be some facts never in dispute such as PA not complying with a twice issued order by Justice Alito to segregate ballots received after 8pm Election Day.
Wisconsin and the requirements of mail ballots...
All we asked, all Trump asked that I ever saw, was for was a fair hearing of the evidence that states and local election officials did not comply with the letter of their own laws. That’s what he was asking the Georgia Secretary of State for. He wasn’t asking them to find him 11,000 votes but to argue that different types of irregularities in several areas of the election more than made up the margin between the candidates. That’s not “pressure to find votes or overturn the election,” as the press and SOS office spun, that’s asking for transparency and honesty in the election.
What we learned in 2020 is there are not consequences for ignoring election laws and proper procedures, there’s apparently no need for any auditable records and paperwork as long as the outcome is “correct” we have to rush to move on, to keep institutional momentum and run out the clock. And if you have questions you are a rebel, seditious and domestic terrorist who must be personally and professionally destroyed unable to communicate, conduct business or live in peace.
That is not a free society. That’s a fascist, totalitarian regime and Biden, Pelosi, Schumer are aligned with their Big Business ideological companions at Google, Twitter, Hallmark, Facebook, Chase, Bank of America, Deutsche bank, Amazon, Apple and elsewhere.
