Trump – Holy shit. He’s going for the endowments.
He’s going to not only tax, but confiscate the endowments of every university that the Department of Justice finds has engaged in illegal discrimination under the guise of “equity”.
Which is basically every university in the country, but is especially the DIEvy League, which, if this happens, will die.
This will crush one of the enemy’s primary power centers.
If he goes through with this, it’s a Henry VIII moment. Dissolution of the monasteries. Vast quantities of capital liquidated and removed from the control of his political enemies … and vast intellectual capital liberated from the cloistered, cloying oversight of midwit administrators.

“has engaged in illegal discrimination”
I’ve seen clarifications that they will pursue those who do that GOING FORWARD, not retroactively.
Yes, the universities are a huge problem and the endowments are why they feel insulated and untouchable. Applaud putting them on notice and under the spotlight but a lot more needs to be done as far as reforming higher ed.
More bullshit. Will never happen.
Would be spectacular if it did, but not “going forward” but in acts already committed. THEN it would matter and wipe out these asshole “institutions of higher learning” for good. And I do mean for “good.”
