Let's talk about the controversy around the president of Harvard for a minute, because there's some new information out there that I think you should know. Doctor Claudine Gay has had five hundred members of the Harvard faculty

right in support of her keeping her job. Now you might wonder, and probably not because you've seen this in the news, but if you're curious, why was there a move or a ground swell to fire and replace the president of what is the most prestigious university in the world. Well, it is because she, under questioning and in front of Congress, said that she wasn't sure. It depends on the context.

If calling for the genocide of Jews on Harvard's campus is a violation of the code of conduct of Harvard, Okay, that was bad. It has also come to light that she has engaged in several acts of plagiarism as an academic. Now they're calling it insufficient citation. That's the that's the term that Harvard's board that looked into this has used insufficient citation. You know, It's like, did I did I steal that car? Or did I insufficiently inform the owner

that I was reappropriating their vehicle? You know what I mean. It's kind of like that. But she is going to keep her job. And I knew that along. I had bets with friends of mine. They said, there's no way she keeps her job. She's she's upset the Jewish American community rightly so, meaning they're rightly upset she is a plagiarist. There's no way she can keep her job as Oh no,

she's keeping it. She is keeping it. And here's where being a conservative, I think sometimes can be a challenger or a being a just a moral and decent person, which politically speaking, I think means you are a conservative. But anyway, it's a challenge because I am not I'm sure many of you, well some of you feel the same way about these things. I'm not vindictive. I actually want people to be happy and successful and safe and

feel fulfilled and be productive. I really do want that for humanity, for individuals, for people in the most general sense and in the most individual and specific sense. I want people to do well. And maybe that sounds corny and cheesy and you know whatever, but that's how I feel day to day. But it's not how doctor Gay feels. Let me tell you what I mean. It was just a few years ago, and had to Quillett for an

excellent piece on this one. It was just a few years ago that doctor Claudine Gay waded into a controversy involving She was a dean at the time, and deans tend to be the most aggressive commissars on these campuses of the diversity and inclusion madness. But she was a dean and one of her colleagues, a tenured professor, was in something of a I would say a very minor sexual harassment Title nine complaint situation. Roland Friar Junior now Roland Fryar Junior, just so you know, is the youngest

black professor to ever get tenure at Harvard University. He grew up in very difficult, impoverished circumstances, worked incredibly hard in school, became a really excellent academic, and made his way to Harvard where he became a tenured professor, the youngest professor. And let me tell you one thing about him is he knows the numbers. He's a guy who likes the math, the numbers, the data, and he's not an ideological conservative. He's just somebody who goes where the

numbers trend. But as he looked into issues of criminology, social justice, these kinds of things, as he looked into that stuff, he already found things that were very upsetting to the left, things that were very upsetting to the Democrat apparatus. Now let me say, if you're wondering why doctor Gay is involved in this, she wanted for the first time in I think over one hundred years, that's right, she wanted Roland's doctor or Professor Frars. She wanted Professor

Fryar's tenure revoked. Now it's almost it's impossible to do that. I mean colleges, elite universities. Once you get tenure, it's I think you have to commit like a heinous felony basically to get it and be convicted of it to get it revoked. It's really, really hard to have tenure revoked. That is the ultimate sanction from the perspective of a university towards staff. Your tenure is it's almost treated as sacred in these places. Doctor Gay wanted doctor Friar's tenure.

So the current president of Harvard, back when she's a dean, wanted a tenured professor, a exceptional and talented black male tenured professor at Harvard, to lose his tenure after they they banned him from the campus for a year, they took away his multimillion dollar research foundation. I mean they they did everything they could, and rolling Friars in an economist by trade, so that's why he likes the numbers,

he likes the data. They did everything they could to ruin in him short of taking away tenure, and sure enough they decided, or at least doctor Gay decided that his tenure should also be revoked. Think about this for a second. The current president of Harvard, who got her job, as we all know, because she is a DEI higher, because Harvard says, look at how great this dei higher is. So you can't proclaim it from the rooftops and then say, wait, are you saying she's a dee higher. No, Harvard's saying

she's a DEI higher. Diversity, equity and inclusion, affirmative action, it's all the same thing, basically different words for the same situation. But this woman who has never published a book, she's an academic, never published a book, never written anything worth reading either, and apparently plagiarizes. She thought that a exceptional black young professor with tenure at Harvard should lose it. Why because he made a couple of semi inappropriate jokes,

as that's what they found the title nine investigation. He did not rape anyone, He did not assault anyone. He did not threaten anyone. He did not touch anyone. He did not coerce anyone, He did not exploit anyone. He made a couple of jokes in front of subordinates, and not even particularly in my opinion, you know, sordid or salty jokes. And for that crime, doctor Gay wanted him fired. Oh,

of course, not for that. Why did the current president of Harvard want this exceptional professor at Harvard of Economics, Roland Friar Junior. Why did she want him to lose his tenure and be fired entirely kicked off campus? Oh because he found out some stuff. Because he looked at the numbers, he crunched the data. And what did it tell him. Well, for one thing, he looked at what

happens in for different races. As you become in school more academically successful, and sure enough, with increasing grade point average, white and Asian students have more friends, probably due to I mean, I'm just surmising here, but increased sense of confidence, increase, the sense of this person is successful, things like that. And yet with black and Hispanic students with an increase in their grade point average, there is a decrease in friendship. Hmmm.

That seems like there might be some kind of a larger situation, a larger cultural issue in the American Black and American Hispanic population, right to something to maybe, oh, how dare you? How dare you tenured Black Priffessor Roland Friar Junior, how dare you talk about this issue? You're not allowed? Well, that was bad in the eyes of

the left. I mean, I think it's really interesting. I think it's something that if we cared about making people's lives better, and if we cared about social science as actual science, people just to pay attention to the data and not the hurt feelings of some individuals in some groups. It's never everybody in these groups when when data comes out, that's inconvenient for the narrative of the left. There are

a lot of people on the left. There are a lot of you know, Black Americans, for example, who will say, yeah, there are issues within the black community that they would like to address and talk about, but they're shouted down by the the you know, the mass of the Democrat left wing, Marxists, identity politics, infrastructure, and that's what happens every time. So they say, oh, well, the black community

is upset, or the Hispanic community is upset. They'll say that, but it's never It's always the professionally aggrieved portion of the community is upset and wants people to know about it. It's not that there's some universal understanding of these issues within those communities, even if there's a majority or whatever. I'm just saying, they never even talk about the minority within those minorities who often want to address these issues.

And you look at sometimes an issue like additional police majority of Black Americans want more police in their neighborhoods, but you're not supposed to talk about this for some reason, because the BLM anti cop narrative is what the black community we are told, subscribes to all as one. This

is just not true. But what was the thing that Roland Roland Friar Junior did that was so unforgivable to the left that a prominent female black dean now the president of Harvard University, who clearly should lose her job, and clearly only got her job in the first place because she is a remorseless and ruthless social justice warrior. Why did they want to get rid of them so badly? Well, I'll tell you, but you're gonna have to wait one

second here. You know, there's just so much going on right now in the world of AI AI artificial intelligence. It's been around for a while, but now it's just exploding and it's going to change the world that we live in. Every technology company is going to be involved with AI in some way, and it's going to be more and more enmeshed into your life. This also means there's tremendous value that's going to be created in these AI companies and for companies that are affiliated with them.

Right that's where Colin teed Arts comes in. Colin has been writing about tech for years. He follows all the investment cycles associated with it, and you know, last year, when the market hit rock bottom, Colin recommended buying shares of a top software company, predicting it had a huge upside. The same software company is up over two hundred percent since then, and anyone who listened to Colin had a chance to more than double their money in less than

a year. Now he's wrecked commending an AI based company that he says could do even better. And he's found a way for you to profit from this new AI project from your broker's account. Go to NEWAI project dot com to learn more. That's new aiproject dot com. Newaiproject dot com paid for by Brownstone Research. So back to the now re emerged controversy of Professor Fryer and Dean Gay at Harvard. Why did she want him ruined? Tenure revoked?

In one hundred years, they haven't done this at Harvard, revoke his tenure because he looked at all the numbers for interactions between civilians and police. Oh, this was just a few years ago. And what did he find out, Well, he found out that cops were more willing to use some degree of force, so you know, handcuffing taser UH on subjects who were non white, specifically black and Hispanic, then on Asian, actually Asian and white suspects or subjects.

And so that was the BLM crowd you would think was like, oh seeze, look at all the racism bop. You know what else he found out by the numbers, police were substantially more likely to shoot and kill white people under the same sets of circumstances controlling for the same force authorization scenario. That police, according to Professor Friar, were more likely by the numbers, to draw their firearm and kill a white subject than a black one, clearly

seen in the data. Oh my gosh, what about Ferguson and what about BLM or he for a tenured black professor at Harvard to undermine something at the heart, at the heart of the BLM narrative unfogivable to the left, and that is why there was this vendetta. And they use the flimsiest pretext, the flimsiest pretext of title mind you know, harassing jokes whatever. And oh one more thing, the actual Harvard committee now Title nine courts on these

campuses are completely Soviet feeling. You have no real rights. It's totally a bias system. The whole thing is a mess. You can't confront your accuser, you can't call your own witnesses. You can't necessarily have counsel. I mean, there's just all this stuff. It's not a legal proceeding. It's kind of a country club proceeding. Whatever we say goes. That's how these campuses operate. But they're doing it with you know,

did you rape someone? So you you'd say, I mean, even if it's not a legal proceeding, if you're found guilty and expelled from campus, has a huge mark on your life. And what if you're innocent. No, they don't care and make an omelet. They got to break a few eggs, that's their attitude. They got a lot eggs

they're breaking. But what do they recommend In the case of Professor Fryer, the Title nine committee, they recommended like nothing really no serious, no serious punishment, and doctor Gay disagreed and wanted him to be punished to the fullest extent possible on the campus. What's that all about? You know, what does she know that? They don't know nothing. But it's a political hit. You see, the left never forgets and that's why doctor Gay. Of course she should be fired.

She should be fired, and she should be humiliated in the public square for what she has said for what she has done, but it's not going to happen. No accountability whatsoever. And see, I tell you this story about doctor Fryar, Professor Fryer, because I want you understand. This is why I do not take a merciful attitude under the circumstances toward President and Gay at Harvard. She should be fired. She deserves it. That is what justice would

demand under these circumstances. But it's not going to happen. It's just not going to happen. You know, there's no shortage of tireless warriors in the campaign trail these days, doing everything they can to have the energy they need in order to try to defeat the Communists' talking about the Republicans here, of course, But how do they keep that energy fired up?

Now, I can I just say I'm right about the Hunter stuff basically all the time, all the big stuff I've gotten correct. Not a surprise, but all the big stuff

I've gotten correct. Right. I'm here to tell you this guy's not going to spend a day in jail. This guy's not gonna get in any real trouble. Nothing's going to happen to him. And the reason he's going on offense refusing to go to the congressional hearing and testify and saying this is all one big maga plot and all this sort of stuff because he knows he's protected and he's covered. Daddy Joe Biden, he's gonna bail him out, and not just bail him out, like he's gonna make

the whole thing go away. He is going to pardon his son, guaranteed, folks guarunteed will pardon his son probably you know, before Christmas next year. And so the whole thing at all federal crimes, it all goes away, the tax stuff, everything, going to pardon his son across the board.

And you say, what if Trump wins, Biden's still going to be president, And anybody says, oh, well, what about when Biden steps down so the DNC can pick Gavin Newsomer and Michelle Obama at the convention, Well, then Biden will do it before he steps down, or he'll have a deal in place with whoever takes over for him that that person will But why do that, right, because you don't want to take that political hit if you're the incoming person. Just have Daddy do it, have Joe

Biden do it. There's no reason, so Joe Biden will pardon his son. So all this stuff about Hunter Biden saying I'm being hounded, No, he broke the law with impunity for years. He was above the law for years, and he got away with it. That's what really happened. He got away with it, and he's going to get away with it. The only accountability in all this Biden crime family stuff, the only accountability will come from the ballot box. We have to defeat the Bidens. If you

don't defeat them, nothing changes. If you don't defeat them, they get away with it. All. This is the simple truth. This is what I'm here to tell you.
