The Trump administration just hit Harvard with a trifecta:


Froze $2 billion in research funding

Threatened international student visas

Targeted their tax-exempt status


That’s not oversight.


That’s a warning shot.


So Harvard’s faculty answered—loudly.


With a letter stating that they won’t bend.


Faculty have pledged $2 million of their own salaries to support the university.


Their goal?


Defend academic freedom.


Protect vulnerable students.


And show the country what it looks like when intellectuals stop being polite and start getting real.


Not to be dramatic, but attacks on schools have historically been a sign of rising fascism.


If a school that powerful can be punished for resisting, what happens to every smaller college and public university that follows?


We can’t let these things become normal.


If we do, things will get a whole lot scarier.


And it’s starting now.
