    I don't know, but this is really big news.

    This is the type of really important, life-changing thing that I was willing to sacrifice close to 15% of my retirement and equity savings to correct.

    Heck, I'd have sacrificed more for such an amazing event as this, especially since Trump also got all those transgender swimmers to finally leave me alone. Trump saved me money!!!

    #WINNING !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    So they change the name and Orange man goes away? Seems like a reasonable course of action.

    Right here
    I think the right’s criticism of DEI has some validity, but I also think any real defender of liberty should be frightened by this development. What happened to the guys rooting for Cliven Bundy fighting the federal government over local rights? Now we have them cheering on the federal government forcing speech on to public and private universities alike.

    They should have changed it to "Orange Man Bad". This would have at the very least resulted in annual contributions from the Besos types to replenish their loss of federal funding.

    For me, this makes Trumps 145% federal sales tax all worth it. Harvard changed the name on a sign you’ll never see. Libs = owned.

    Ya, my bad. After the small recovery, the market is only down about 10% from where it was when the smart guy you voted for started his tariffs.

    Try to stay on topic though; Trump got Harvard to change the DEI office's name or something. What a win!

    This is exactly the kind of meaningful results you were hoping for when you cast your ballot for that great great man and certainly it must fill you with Trumpy joy! Can't you just be happy with the winning for once? I mean the first time. I mean never, if you really think about it ..... ;)

    Stay on topic, please. We're not discussing Jared Kushner's zero-gain, fee-generating-only "investment fund."

    Simply change the name to comply with the Gestapo. Move/Counter move.

    Speaking of Harvard, a scathing report, commissioned by the university, came out today confirming that rampant antisemitism has infiltrated the campus. Obviously the findings of this report come as a surprise to absolutely no one and apparently Harvard’s President now wants to commission a report to find out if water is indeed wet.
