While the U.S. and Israeli Governments Act as Genocidal Terrorists Donald Trump Calls Harvard Stance on Principles a “’Joke’
By Mark Aurelius
Trump calls Harvard ‘a joke’ while threatening funds
https://thehill.com/homenews/education/5251335-trump-harvard-funding-joke/
““Harvard is a JOKE, teaches Hate and Stupidity, and should not longer receive Federal Funds,” Trump wrote early Wednesday in a post on Truth Social.”
“Harvard was the first university Monday to openly reject the Trump administration’s demands to change its policies.” …
“ “No government — regardless of which party is in power — should dictate what private universities can teach, whom they can admit and hire, and which areas of study and inquiry they can pursue,” Harvard University President Alan Garber said.”

But if you bothered to watch those self-righteous Congressional, kangaroo-court hearings, you would know they, Congress itself, was the joke (bewailing mightily with Biblical proportions of lamentation, claiming through all manner of hyperbolic accusations, but with zero to little fact or proof, about phantasmagorical abundance of hatred on American campuses pretty much solely directed against Jews—even as many pro-Palestinian protestors were themselves Jews).
This is why it is important for far more Americans to go see the documentary The Encampments so they can see what an inverted lie this all was as a staged event both in Congress and propagated by a deceitful media.
How worthy are Donald Trump’s pronouncements and judgements?
Despite he supposedly graduated from the Wharton School of Business with a degree in economics we can see how well this ‘serious’ scholar is doing with the economy.
Jeffery Sachs a pretty renown professor of economics and political pundit worthy of paying attention to—and here is what he has to say about President Trump’s economic acumen:
'King Donald...': Jeffery Sachs GOES OFF On Trump Tariffs; Urges World To NOT Live In 'Crazy Land'
To summarize: Trump would have failed his first level course on economics. Rather he apparently is operating on some sort of deluded theory. [However, it equally needs to be said that Professor Sachs is not an expert on climate change (even if he has supervised a number of them via the United Nations, and so he clearly does not know the dubious but real conspiracies that have been made to cook the science. Carbon is not an enemy to life.]
Whereas Ron Unz at his very valuable website The Unz Review, www.unz.com, did a great analysis:
Donald Trump's Looney Tunes Trade Policy
https://www.unz.com/runz/donald-trumps-looney-tunes-trade-policy/
Definitely worthy commentary—suffice it to say that even though Unz did not formally study economics in college he clearly has some common sense understanding of the matter; and he sure knows what looney tune cartoons are like as well.
So, the Don flunks out in the subject matter he studied in college. Nor so good in judging others.
As relevant if not more: several people have had questions about how facile and agile are Donald’s reading skills—this is a world of complex information—especially if you are high up in government.
As relevant if not more: several people have had questions about how facile and agile are The Don’s reading skills—after all this is a world of complex information—especially if you are high up in government.
And granted, The Atlantic magazine is a biased, leftist, political attack dog, but it is not the only source questioning whether he has much of a penchant to read (and pondering a bit how that may play to his intellectual depth in general):
The President Who Doesn’t Read: Trump’s allergy to the written word and his reliance on oral communication have proven liabilities in office

Many Americans, sadly, are poor readers. This is not a joke, and it is certainly not something that should be made fun or ridiculed. Rather it is a tragedy that will continue to play its ‘enormous’ part in the fall of our American culture—just witness how easily people are duped by political hacks, or sidetracked by red-herring issues!
Yes, the American education system is, at least, partially responsible. For a long time, it too either pushed, or tolerated, speed reading as a viable learning strategy—which neglects the time necessary to truly examine ideas and any intuitive feelings association with such analysis (like in eternally assessing: “This makes sense,” or “This doesn’t seem a sound or argument—where’s the evidence?). You know having a kind of BS detector.
Not only does speed reading not allow time to contemplate, equally it is not an enjoyable way to read. Speed reading as a style that turns away potential life-readers from learning to appreciate the value and worthiness of reading because people routinely feel rushed.
Plus, with an emphasis on speed people are prone to neglect the responsibility to take time to look up words in a dictionary one is unfamiliar (or to use other reference books or electronic databases and maps).
Poor reading is truly one of America’s most serious problems because we literally have way too many who are less-resourceful and shallow, thus people who are more easily manipulated intellectually (and more prone to trust facile propaganda and mediocre peoples’ opinions as taken as valuable or acceptable).
Sorry for sidetracking to some pedantism on how bad the education system is, and this does not even touch on the political and cultural incentives that have turned schools and colleges into indoctrination centers, such as a focus on being politically correct, such as blaming white, European gentiles for most of the world’s evils, etc.
Frankly, the American education system very likely was deliberately dumbed down; but regardless as to whether it was deliberate or not, it was, and still is stupidly stultified (as are most American citizens who vote for either Republicans or Democrats—two parties that should have been booted decades ago).
Read Crimes of the Educators by Samuel Blumenfeld & Alex Newman.

Getting back to whether something, or someone, is a joke, such as colloquially, not to be taken seriously (like Harvard’s refusal to comply with White House dictates) how does Drump-ass appointing a woman who was a prior professional wrestling promoter to be the new U.S. Secretary of Education play out? How is that for class and class rating?
According to Wikipedia, Linda Marie McMahon is an American politician, business executive, and former professional wrestling promoter.
“McMahon, along with her husband, Vince McMahon, founded … World Wrestling Entertainment, Inc. where she worked as the president and later CEO from 1980 to 2009.”
Perhaps you too, reader, have thought someone appointed to be Secretary of Education ought to have at least a modicum of experience in American education? How many millions of teachers, professors, college presidents, and just graduates in general across this country thought such an appointment was equally a joke?
Twenty-nine years promoting fatuous entertainment, like the screaming of juveniles to vent off steam, and then she jumps into politics because she happens to have a friend in the White House—that certainly sound like a good candidate for a cabinet level position. Well guess they are all fighters at heart.
Donald Trump and WWE: How the Road to the White House Began at ‘WrestleMania’
https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-news/donald-trump-and-wwe-how-the-road-to-the-white-house-began-at-wrestlemania-35697/
Within this Rollingstone magazine article, which includes three short, slapstick and interesting videos of him, we get a good feel for the man now in the White House.
The first one with previous wrestling star Jesse Ventura, who did a good job in promoting some real conspiracy theories (than the orthodox can handle).
From there we get a lot of ring-side hot bellicose air between Vince McMahon and the Donald Trumpetism. Promo man and circus ring leader.
But don’t stop there. Check out these educated wrestling tactics on this instructional video:
Donald Duck vs SpongeBob for the Cartoon Wrestling World Title!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CZlzKkjU5mg&t=200s
These cartoon characters don’t play by the rules and they are nasty contestants. And check out the audience—full of young men and they are going to vote in the election—but don’t worry because it’s a selection and not a real election.
And so, if you are interested in how the White House now seems to be a bit of a circus this may be one such reason—we literally have a circus barker now growling at the current President and the professorial teaching staff of an Ivy League school.
Can you say comedy versus tragedy? And it was not just the White House trying to get colleges to address various other issues such as DEI, republican congress persons also excoriated college presidents at the hearings originally called together to address antisemitism equally did as well (after all it is a more real issue).
Yes, Prez Trump is a guy who hosted a reality TV show, namely The Apprentice, on NBC from 2004 to 2017 for 14 seasons. What was it famous for—an almost give-a-dam capacity to fire people on a dine. He made the phrase: “Your fired” famous.
Does he not understand how many people who have been through being fired in real life, with real life circumstances, many who may have felt humiliated when they were fairly or unfairly fired? Could not one reason some people hate him is because he seemingly has never been on the receiving end of such a critical life issue?
Still, intuitively, there seems to be some humanity in this man. He is social and at least gregarious.
But then why is heart so dead when it comes to how many innocent Palestinians are now being starved to death. How could he so insouciantly talk about deporting American prisoners to a notorious prison system in El Salvador without due process of law? Watch this video:
The world’s toughest prison for gangs CECOT Inside El Salvador Fortress Prison
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ND1d-ccM4o&t=22s
Whereas action figure and barbie doll Kristi Noem threatens illegals to self-deport or she equally threatens to send them to such a place? Talk about a stereotype of female sensitivity.
Noem sends warning to illegal immigrants from El Salvador prison with Tren de Aragua members
“I toured the CECOT, El Salvador’s Terrorism Confinement Center,” Noem said in a statement posted to X on Wednesday evening. “President Trump and I have a clear message to criminal illegal aliens: LEAVE NOW. If you do not leave, we will hunt you down, arrest you, and you could end up in this El Salvadorian prison.”
This is the face of the new conservative Republican—once a rural ranch child in South Dakota with a supposedly Christian upbringing. Now not far from appearing like some kind of monster herself and running the police state apparatchik of the Department of Homeland Security.
Sure, there are criminal monsters who deserve strict supervision, but frankly many who rather die a quick death than half to exist worst than animals in a prison system known of all manner of abuse. If you watched the video listed above the diet there is guaranteed to create major nutritional deficiencies.
But then again, because too many average Americans tend to be ignorant on America’s foreign affairs and America’s real criminal past related to foreign affairs (read William Blum’s books like: Killing Hope: U.S. Military and C.I.A. Interventions Since World War II--Updated Through 2003 and America's Deadliest Export: Democracy - The Truth about US Foreign Policy and Everything Else) few know or care about how those immigrants came to the United States.
How U.S. Involvement In Central America Led To a Border Crisis
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ueNWlMyUNy4&t=734s
There are similar such videos.
Nevertheless, some on the right are now crying about not being able to mass export illegal immigrants, and yet they are so ethnocentric and fascistic on the matter they don’t seem to care by what means and what are the results. Their supposed conservative values prove to be very much a sham (these people who claimed to value the rule of law and civil liberties).
'Homegrowns are next': Trump hopes to deport and jail U.S. citizens abroad
https://www.npr.org/2025/04/16/nx-s1-5366178/trump-deport-jail-u-s-citizens-homegrowns-el-salvador
“"The homegrowns are next, the homegrowns. You've got to build about five more places," Trump said to Bukele, an apparent reference to prison space that would be needed in El Salvador to house U.S. citizens.”
According to Wikipedia, CECOT, Terrorism Confinement Center
According to prison director Belarmino García “estimated that CECOT held between 15,000 and 20,000 inmates. With a capacity for 40,000 inmates, CECOT is the largest prison in Latin America and one of the largest in the world by prisoner capacity…”
So, is Trump saying that he is expected to move 100,000 or more Americans to be caged like animals and treated as bad as experimental animals? No wonder why alarmist protests are popping up around the country and even in cities in Europe! This guy is literally off his rocker or he is literally the next Vladimir Lenin. See article:
A Look Into The Extreme Conditions Prisoners Endured In Soviet Gulags
https://www.warhistoryonline.com/instant-articles/a-look-into-the-extreme-conditions-prisoners-endured-in-soviet-gulags.html
Read Chapter 5: The Red Terror from the book: The Myth of German Villainy by Benton L. Bradberry (an eye-opening book worth reading twice). Jeff Bezos’ Amazon no longer displays the page that had with good ratings (censorship). You can read the pdf file free at Archive.com. Very well researched and written.
What does one make of this White House. Even a lot of conservatives are having second thoughts. Nor has Donald Trump spoken out about all the egregious torture in Israel’s notorious prisons where the house thousands of Palestinians without any trial or proof of a crime (including children).
Torture, rape, abuse: New Palestinian testimonies reveal horrors of Israel's prisons: In-depth: Harrowing testimonies from Tariq Abed and Al-Araby TV journalist Mohammed Arab reveal shocking details of torture, rape, and abuse in Israeli jails.
When one sizes up Donald Trump’s cabinet selections, advisors, and press secretary—several of them seem to have a sort of groupie credulity (which probably why many are younger than expected for such senior positions). So their team-sport dogma and aggressivity appears to be based a bit in the sophomoric (even if some of their general views are grounded in reality, such as the Democrats really did especially engage in heavy handed corruption and foul play—because the did—which is why Donald Trump finally got his comeback).
‘Sophomore’ comes to the English language probably is by folk etymology derivation from Greek sophos "wise" + mōros "foolish, dull" (see moron), "as if in allusion to the exaggerated opinion which students at this age are apt to have of their wisdom" [Century Dictionary]. See Etymonline.com
All of them underestimate their own naivete which is why they take their own misguided manner of changing course so seriously. Many of them are ignorant of the deeper levels of real conspiracies and deceit working around them—that have existed before they ever entered the drama (while they equally introduced new levels of conspiracy by hiring billionaire technocrats who are ultimately more pliable to Israel’s further surveillance and control of America).
Still given how morbidly pro-Israel is the Trump White House, he, Trump, probably was not the one who winnowed down most of these administration selections, save perhaps individuals like Linda McMahon and Stephen Miller (who apparently lied about the whether it is legal to return Kilmar Abrego Garcia from an El Salvadorian prison known for torture).
Watch this analysis video:
Trump Admin Suggests Sending Americans To Foreign Prisons For 4th Time
https://www.thelastamericanvagabond.com/trump-american-foreign-prison-mrna/
At 3:00 (hour three exactly) Miller, the equivalent of one of Trump’s right-hand men, is lying as to why it is not legal to get the never-convicted prisoner back.
The discussion of these disappearing protestors and foreign migrants off to prison reporting really starts way back at minute 54 of the first hour—worthy.
But if you just want to watch the White House cabinet meeting with Bukele fraud-charade then it starts at 2:49, (2 hours 49 minutes) turning to groupthink, like Bondi and Rubio giving their supposed 2-cents worth of testimonial value.
Listen from minute 54 of the first hour to the end of the podcast—long yes but insightful—to get a sense of what a real fraud this whole disappearing of prisoners is becoming (and what a dangerous non-joke of a precedent it has become). You would have thought the world regressed three or four hundred years when prisoners were shipped across the world to be slaves, indentures servants (equally slaves) and people scourged to hell.
[Note: Ryan Cristian and his podcast TheLastAmericanVagabond.Com is one of the best and most important sources of investigative journalism on national and international news in the English-speaking language. His productions are long and elaborate, but he goes the extra mile to do the real research. If you routinely study him, you will eventually understand what real, investigative journalism should consist (rather than so much deceit and shoddy reasoning around the country). Even the internet alternative media is inundated with all manner of shoddy evidence and red baiting.
Take the question of tattoos on Kilmar Abrego Garcia’s fingers. Almost all the tattoos of MS 13 gang members evince explicit or obvious M + S + 13. Google MS13 tattoos. No conspiracy garbage or hypothetical crap about a cross means 1 and a skull means 3.
Or the story about Garcia and Senator Chris Van Hollen drinking margaritas is equally some ploy that likely started in Washington (more clown show).
Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele, if you listen to him talk, he doesn’t seem especially sophisticated. The guy sounds more like Joe Six-pack than some elite mind. Frankly despite the fact his ancestry is from the Middle East he started working in one of the feudal gangs.
The Nayib Bukele Phenomenon: Pro-Israel and Muslim, Nayib Bukele is a new breed of Latin American strongman
https://mishpacha.com/the-nayib-bukele-phenomenon/
“He entered politics under the banner of the Farabundo Martí National Liberation Front (FMLN), a Communist group that waged a guerilla war during the 1970s and ’80s; but now governs with a right-wing populist style that has drawn support from former US president Donald Trump.”
This is a long, highly relevant, article that shows the complications of the realities of El Salvador, and the Bukele rise to power. It is definitely worth reading. But we note there is and was a shortchanging in honoring rights, as we Americans understand legal rights:
“Within the framework of this “exceptional regime,” over 70,000 individuals have been detained without due process or just cause, and their families are deprived of contact. Meanwhile, numerous reports of arbitrary arrests, unrelated to the gang violence, have surfaced. Some contend that police officers face pressure to fill arbitrary arrest quotas, leading to the unjust detention of innocent civilians.”
“Mothers of the detained have fervently demanded information regarding their loved ones’ whereabouts, yet their pleas have yielded only evasive answers.”
What can we assume about Donald Trump’s level of awareness regarding the real history of El Salvador, or Ukraine or the Middle East.
Before The Apprentice, learning more showbiz, Trump acquired his casino license in the early 1980s.
And so, we conclude, that in essence, we have a man who doesn’t apparently read that much, if at all (and who is therefore dependent on his questionable or dubious advisors); who can’t seem to cobble together a top-tier, seasoned-senior and viable cabinet (twice in a role); who doesn’t seem to know, or care that much about civil liberties and the rule of law; who thinks problems can be shipped off to foreign countries; who may have possibly cheated his way through college; regardless, is doing his share to destroy the world economy; who is married to technocrat billionaires who are attached to dangerous political goals (such as complete surveillance especially for Israel’s benefit); while he ardently promotes giving weapons and bombs to a brazen war criminal he treats as a personal friend; who frames college protests against the immorality of genocide in the Levant (not limited to Gaza) on campuses as antisemitism; and, meanwhile we all could defer to his comment about Harvard and American campuses being a joke?
But what really makes this man qualified to run our country? Not very much. Only the less-than-desired-levels of American’s awareness levels.
Even Berkeley is now slowly re-awakening! Maybe peacenik flower power love is not the answer but human compassion and decency certainly is:

Donald, ask yourself from your own heart—would it not be OK to admit that perhaps you got yourself over your head? You are just mortal and naïve like we all are. You can step down if you want.
Somehow, you got yourself manipulated into all of this (of course you played your role—still you are not destined to carry out these nefarious agendas like allowing the Israeli government to starve the Palestinians and steal more land in the West Bank).
Even if it is partially of your own doing. You can choose to make huge changes and realizations
You are not dependent on the opinions of other people. You are only a mortal human like the rest of us. Wake up.
Play golf. Drink cocktails. Tell the world to take a hike. There is no joke here Donald. We should wish there was something funny to laugh at.
Things need to be taken seriously.
[Note: this amount of political crisis should not befall solely on young college students. It is time to for all Americans, especially the elderly and more sophisticated to take to the streets and start a revival for real America’s Greatness that starts with civil liberties and human justice].
Amen
P.S. Israel, you are coming down your mountain, you, and your Yahweh. Amen
