The Dept of Homeland Security has revoked the Student and Exchange Visitor Program certification for Harvard University, thereby essentially cancelling their ability to enroll foreign students into the school. Harvard was notified of the status and the letter shared by DHS Secretary Kristi Noem.
The notification comes the day after Yaron Lischinsky, an Israeli citizen, and Sarah Milgrim, an American woman (a young couple about to be engaged), were gunned down at the Capital Jewish Museum around 9:15 p.m. Wednesday. The suspect Elias Rodriguez, 31 of Chicago, repeatedly yelled, “Free Palestine” when he was arrested.
Ancillary to the takeover of the Columbia University library ¹yesterday that led to the subsequent arrest of dozens of campus chaos agents, Acting Columbia University President Claire Shipman has announced a decision to terminate 180 paid research staff.
The termination of employment comes as a result of the Trump administration withdrawing funding for the University.
COLUMBIA PRESS RELEASE – […] “Across the research portfolio we have had to make difficult choices and unfortunately, today, nearly 180 of our colleagues who have been working, in whole or in part, on impacted federal grants, will receive notices of non-renewal or termination. This represents about 20% of the individuals who are funded in some manner by the terminated grants.”
Instead of using their endowment to retain staff, the University terminates them.
¹Additionally, it is now being reported that Columbia University leadership knew in advance of the pro-Hamas protest group that planned to take over the school library. The University chose to allow the confrontation on campus that ended with the arrest of the group.
If you find yourself wondering, wait, what, why are we funding Australian universities? You are likely not alone.
Apparently, the U.S. government has been sending $6oo million/yr to universities in Australia to subsidize various college research programs. The Trump administration has told Australia the funding will likely end.
The Australian university system is in a state of panic, telling their government to declare a “state of emergency”.
One particular quote from within the Sky News article below seemingly encapsulates the mindset of the situation in the land down under:
AUSTRALIA […] Last week after it was revealed the universities had been asked to justify their funding, the National Tertiary Education Union called on the government to “guarantee Australian researchers would be protected”.
“The federal government must push back on the Trump administration’s blatant foreign interference in our independent research in the strongest possible terms,” NTEU president Alison Barnes said. (Full Article)
One would think the NTEU would be happy for an enhanced opportunity for “independent research.”
Alas, it appears Mr/Ms Alison Barnes doesn’t quite understand the nature of the word “independent” within the relationship. A little funny.
Education Secretary Linda McMahon answers questions from media and delivers remarks after receiving a presidential directive to dissolve the federal Dept of Education.
President Donald Trump is anticipated to sign an executive order beginning a process to remove the federal Dept of Education today. President Trump will sign an executive order and take questions from the press beginning at 4:00pm ET. Livestream Links Below:
UPDATE: Video and Executive Order Added
EXECUTIVE ORDER – By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, and to enable parents, teachers, and communities to best ensure student success, it is hereby ordered:
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt took several impromptu questions from media today about an upcoming announcement from President Trump to shut down most functions of the federal Dept of Education (aka Dept of Indoctrination).
According to Leavitt, President Trump will be making an announcement at 4:00pm today and likely to field questions about the education policy. WATCH:
Together with cabinet members from Commerce, the EPA and Energy, President Trump signed two executive orders today and holds yet another lengthy impromptu press conference.
The first XO was an order to remove federal COVID-19 mandates in education. No more COVID vaccines are federally mandated for school attendance. The second XO is targeting the energy sector to unleash American energy independence [SEE HERE]. The Energy XO encompasses the revitalization of energy infrastructure and creating access to federal energy resources.
Additionally, keeping with a new process of holding impromptu press availabilities, President Trump took several questions from the media about ongoing current events including the meetings taking place in Europe around the Russia -v- Ukraine conflict. WATCH:
.
The press availability allows President Trump to speak directly to events as they unfold. It is remarkable transparency that cuts through the ability of the media to frame current issues. A very smart communication strategy.
Perhaps the most telling line in the announcement is the last one. “We will send education BACK TO THE STATES, and Linda will spearhead that effort.”
President Trump has announced the nomination of Linda McMahon to be the next Secretary of Education. Likely with the intention to eliminate the federal Dept of Education.
I have increasingly said that all around those who live in the “western democracies” there is an information war taking place. The primary targets of that information war are the truth tellers who do not point fingers directly toward the Potemkin Village of political representatives, but more importantly point out the people who really control the actions taken by the politicians.
Within this quiet and opaque battlespace, a place where only the well-studied and smart grey people travel, we talk about root causes and identify the true origin of the cancerous control systems. This is the world of finance, money and global influence, the political outcomes are downstream. The grey men are the ones who I believe are the core of the greatest awakening. I consider myself a proud member.
Amid the “grey man group” is the voice of Neil Oliver, a voice who was increasingly red pilling the people of Great Britain, who, like us, are also in an abusive relationship with government. The British Government through OfCom took Neil Oliver off air stopping his televised broadcasts. However, even though they are not allowed to have him on television, GBNews still puts Oliver’s content on YouTube. WATCH:
[Transcript] – We tell ourselves that children are our most precious resource and treasure. We sing songs about it. I believe that children are our future and all that jazz. Let’s have a look at the recent reality of life and death of children around the world, shall we?
According to the Gaza Health Ministry, more than 12,300 children have been killed in that open air prison since October last year. The children of the generation that went through the fires of hell and said, never again, are witnessing 21st century children consumed by other flames.
There is only one reasonable way to look at this. The Lightbringer, Teh One, the messiah of all progressive enlightenment, must have changed his mind and acquiesced to the reality that his diminishing ego was more valuable than her demise. If the Lightbringer had stood firm, she would still be in place.
The Crimson – Harvard President Claudine Gay will resign Tuesday afternoon, bringing an end to the shortest presidency in the University’s history, according to a person with knowledge of the decision. It is not clear who will be appointed to serve as interim president. (more)
