So that SC decision came down in June of 2023, too late to affect the 2023 admissions cycle. Do you have proof Harvard was ignoring this decision for the 2024 & 2025 admissions cycles? |

He couldn't pick his grandchildren out of a lineup. And notice how Jared and Ivanka have distanced themselves from him? They are mortified. Only Beavis and Butthead have remained loyal. |

Jared's dad bought his way into Harvard for a $2.5 million donation. https://www.propublica.org/article/the-story-behind-jared-kushners-curious-acceptance-into-harvard The Story Behind Jared Kushner’s Curious Acceptance Into Harvard ProPublica editor Daniel Golden wrote a book a decade ago about how the rich buy their children access to elite colleges. One student he covered is now poised to become one of the most powerful figures in the country. My book exposed a grubby secret of American higher education: that the rich buy their under-achieving children’s way into elite universities with massive, tax-deductible donations. It reported that New Jersey real estate developer Charles Kushner had pledged $2.5 million to Harvard University in 1998, not long before his son Jared was admitted to the prestigious Ivy League school. At the time, Harvard accepted about one of every nine applicants. (Nowadays, it only takes one out of twenty.) I also quoted administrators at Jared’s high school, who described him as a less than stellar student and expressed dismay at Harvard’s decision.“ There was no way anybody in the administrative office of the school thought he would on the merits get into Harvard,” a former official at The Frisch School in Paramus, New Jersey, told me. “His GPA did not warrant it, his SAT scores did not warrant it. We thought for sure, there was no way this was going to happen. Then, lo and behold, Jared was accepted. It was a little bit disappointing because there were at the time other kids we thought should really get in on the merits, and they did not.” |

Pretty stupid you are..... Hopefully Harvard doesn't cave because I want to see Trump with egg on his fat face but if Harvard can negotiate the return of all of the held up money let's be honest about the reality which is Harvard isn't actually paying anything. They are just taking a bit less money for a year or two. The blithering idiots will spin it as a win but the reality is Harvard said "give us $5B instead of $5.5B and we'll forget this ever happened. They didn't lose anything except their pride. |

How dare I say something bad about Das Fuhrer. It is a statement of fact. He is too busy trying to profit off the presidency to spend time with the grandkids. Not evil. It is the truth. He had very little relationship with the boys until they were adults and of use to him. He liked Ivanka because she was hot. Which is another statement of fact so don't deny it. I am still waiting for a MAGA person to say one negative thing about him. You all have this knee-jerk defense mechanism. It is so sad. You lost the ability to think critically. The only thing bad you can say is that he isn't being mean enough to the libs. |

They can be "woke" with their own money. |

That was a civil case and I don't know how many times we need to tell you; Harvard Won the Discrimination Case |

“Woke” is another dog whistle you can’t define. Look! There’s a picture of Emmanuel Goldstein! Hurl your insults. |

And Trump can refurbish his ridiculous new plane with his own money. No money for health insurance for the poor while he pimps out a plane that he took with dirty money. But none of his followers will hear any of this, because they only hear propaganda and nothing critical of him. At some point will they wake up and start asking why their media only heaps praise on him? Ever read the Bible? Thou shalt have only one God? So stop treating him like God. He is the anti-Christ. |

Not reported on Fox News or Breitbart so it didn't happen. |

You're that close to Donald Trump? Family member? Friend? |

Yes, you've said that but that does not make it true. We've asked you for the citation, yet for some reason, you can not provide it. |

Denial ain't just a river. He's too busy jetting around playing golf on my dime (and cheating at it) to spend time with them. I need to prove he hasn't been with them. How about you prove he has? Since you and MAGA nation are all so perfect. |

Intelligent people inevitably come to the same conclusion: that being on the left is the smartest way. It's the only way. You can make fun of being "enlightened" all you want but you just continue to show people that you are too dumb to attain it. |

The White House is pushing Harvard for a major financial settlement in negotiations to restore more than $2 billion in frozen funds, according to a person familiar with the talks — and demanding that Harvard cough up even more than Columbia University did earlier this week. United States President Donald Trump is personally pressing officials involved in the negotiations to ensure Harvard pays more than Columbia’s $220 million deal, the person said, adding that Trump believes exceeding that sum would set an example. The Trump administration has publicly framed the Columbia deal as a “template” for future settlements with elite universities like Harvard. Trump himself has zeroed in on Harvard because of a personal disdain for the University, according to the person, treating the school as a centerpiece in his broader campaign against higher education. |
