Every single accusation of theirs is a confession. They bitched and bitched about "lawfare" and being "cancelled", etc....when they stroke off to this kind of thing happening when it actually happens in reality.
Again, you're fucking with a premier educational institution. These people don't realize the shit they are stepping into with court battles that will get them relief quickly with injunctions, and have all kinds of ramifications for similar institutions. You can't just single out a single entity in a group, idiots.
Not just any entity, one of the entities that generates the most lawyers and judges. But maybe that will be part of it, I bet they move to disqualify any judge assigned to the case who went to Harvard....
While Harvard does have a big endowment, they are a non-profit. You may not like everything they do, but that doesn't change how they are incorporated.
Also, attacking folks who were protesting was more a Columbia thing. Harvard has mostly dealt with their protesters more civilly, which might be why Trump and Republicans are coming after them.

They need to consider every single church that spews political nonsense while they are at it.
This just points that we are going to be targeted by them sooner than later. Save your receipts.

Start with the mormons. 265 billion? I think they can afford taxes.

Fascism needs churches to keep their sheep in line. Education teaches you to ask questions.

May as well keep it simple for them. No tax breaks for bigot book clubs.

So we still think obeying judges is something the Trump admin intends to do, even now?
Any day now these consequences are going to start showing up, amirite guys?

If anything was going to happen, it should’ve happened when he fired people in the CIA, nothing is going to happen

Harvard might be considering a lot of law suits right about now. Maybe a dozen for every holding Trump has anywhere.

I got a better idea: remove tax exempt status from every church supporting MAGA

I would be open to forcing them to disclose all of their investments and the ownership of all their board members to determine this in court..

Aren't they a for profit institution?

No.

Have you seen the portfolio of their investment and the investment of their Board?
There's a reason they attacked folks protesting the genocide, and that reason was profit.

Man, you've been popping up everywhere recently.
While Harvard does have a big endowment, they are a non-profit. You may not like everything they do, but that doesn't change how they are incorporated.
