Of the many social, economic, military, and other disastrous issues left by the Biden-Harris gang of political misfits to confront the incoming Trump administration, one that desperately needs to be addressed is the corruption, mainly of higher education, that is turning out brainwashed numbskulls indoctrinated to hate America. That problem should rank very high on the “to-do” list, starting with closing the treacherous Dept. of Education. If we don’t, we will continue producing a steady flow of graduates who are more schooled in Marxism than American constitutionalism. America’s status as the beacon of hope and freedom to a world awash with misery was to be ended. They need us to become just another country awash with misery led by our betters in the New World Order. The “Great Reset” happens on November 5th!
The confusion and uncertainty of the outcome of the Vietnam War provided the opening those radical progressives seized to infiltrate colleges and universities as professors, to slowly introduce and nurture their socialist radicalism of America’s future leaders. During the war, American citizens were being conditioned by the left-leaning mainstream media to hate the military for not winning the war, losing troops, and wasting money. At the same time, as LBJ was personally conducting the losing campaign from the White House, he sought to keep black Americans on the Democrat plantation by paying them enough welfare to survive at a ‘just getting by’ level while dumbing down their education prospects at all levels. Americans of African descent, to survive, accepted government welfare handouts, including unrestricted additional funds for each new baby born, so long as they voted Democrat. There were strings attached. If a male job holder lived in the home, then no federal money would be allotted, resulting in the complete breakdown of the black family. Single black mothers were left destitute with multiple uneducated children desperate to find a purpose in American society. Institutions of higher education were unavailable to most of them, and Obama, in his first presidential term, shut down a successful Black Charter school program in DC that accepted only the brightest students by merit. That took the morale out of those black communities, and a gloating Obama blamed Republicans while turning those poor folk into another victim group. The Democrat’s strategy of pandering to “victim groups” expired on 05 Nov. 24!
Money drives everything incredibly greedy education. Where does it come from, and why is it showing up in violent protests on American college and university campuses? The Ivy League schools, once the cream of American higher education and from which America’s political leadership mainly was drawn, have, for money, joined the “Woke” ranks of Marxist radicalism, American style. Annually, successful alumni pour in vast donations to sustain their school’s reputation, especially in competition between name-worthy sports teams that make even more money. However, not everybody could afford the high cost of attending such prestigious institutions, and minorities needed not to apply, lacking even the most basic of education. Social and military demands (war) required the abandonment of racial quota programs to open the doors to qualified minorities. That didn’t work, so DEI and CRT programs were imposed. But not the Ivy League, yet.
Today, governments funding higher education with our taxes has become outrageous, constituting an illegal expenditure that should be terminated, the military academies accepted. Government funding schemes now depend on institutions accepting applicants based on their victim status (DEI), no matter how unprepared they are. Acceptance by merit isn’t “equitable.” The motive for Biden’s plan to forgive educational loans was to relieve the costs to those students who couldn’t make the grade and had to drop out, mainly Americans of African descent. It was just another redistribution scheme. When the federal government started guaranteeing loans, education costs rose exponentially. In time, all the funds taken in by those universities from outside sources, alumni donations, investments, and government involvement were barely used to educate. Still, they were instead invested in stocks and bonds to fill their coffers with billions of dollars. Good for them. But, If that’s the case, they should have enough cash on hand to reduce tuition fees for all applicants, not expect the federal government to cover the difference. It is time for the Ivy League schools to dip into their hoards and pay their freight, not you or me. That may be on Trump’s docket!
Finally, we wonder why, since the Hamas attack against Israel, America’s college students have suddenly become radicalized antisemites supporting Hamas and participating with entrenched Jihadists to violently attack Jewish students when it is Islam that was the perpetrator of the violence! It’s because the lust for money has suborned our universities. Oil-rich Saudi Arabia spends billions of dollars to corrupt American higher education by creating Islamic friendship centers on college campuses to promote Islamic culture and Sariah law. They construct buildings in the name of Allah, turning students’ minds away from the horrors Islam perpetrated on Israelis on 07 October 23 to condemn Israel’s response as genocide. That suggests the decrepit level of higher education. No true American should even consider going to those schools until they have been deradicalized. There are better opportunities.
Also, China, long America’s main enemy, in their long game to alter the future, has run roughshod over American industry, pouring billions of dollars into institutions of higher education by creating scholarships, sending students (spies), building Buddhist friendship centers where American students can be identified and recruited as potential “fellow travelers” of Communist China, and from where CCP operatives can conduct espionage, plot the thefts of proprietary information and even convert American students into China loving communists like Tim Walz. Penn State University, now notable as the unauthorized repository of years of Joe Biden’s collection of classified documents, apart from his garage, is a case in point. China donated funds in Joe Biden’s name for a Chinese Center where CCP agents could study the years of purloined classified American documents Joe absconded with both as a senator, congressman, and VP, in leisure. Sadly, Joe Biden is nearly a corpse. His presidential library at Penn State is but a hollow dream. At the same time, his legacy, nothing to brag about, lies in tatters, yet his spending programs continue funding our enemies, sustaining their espionage programs and debasing American culture. It’s time for a change! Let’s give Trump a chance to do just that!
