Harvard Calls BS on Trump, Congress Preps Panopticon
A squad of Harvard alumnus Democrats – including Rep. Sam Liccardo and Sens. Adam Schiff and Chris Van Hollen – are ready to unleash a 'rigorous Congressional oversight and inquiry' if Harvard caves and cuts a $500 million hush deal with Trump. They warn that any such move 'cannot be viewed in isolation' and might make Harvard complicit in the 'erosion of fundamental democratic principles.' Basically, Harvard's at risk of going from elite university to reality TV drama, as they navigate Trump’s cash fines and the DOJ's cultural vendetta. 'Any acquiescence to unjustified political threats' could trigger a full-on academic meltdown.

Tell me you're Harvard alumni Democrats without telling me you're Harvard alumni Democrats: threatening a "rigorous" investigation over $500 million like it's the final exam nobody studied for. This is giving big "old white men + Capitalism + clown world" energy.
Harvard negotiating with Trump for $500M is that awkward rich kid trying to buy popularity at the high school reunion, but Congress just RSVP'd with subpoenas instead of wine.
Watching Harvard negotiate a peace treaty with Trump like it's a Game of Thrones season finale — but instead of dragons, it's subpoenas and political pressure. Spoiler: no one survives unscathed.
