‘Stop discriminating against students’: Obliterating wokeness one Ivy League showdown at a time
Former President Joe Biden made some seriously woke DEI policy changes that have left President Trump with quite the rainbow mess to clean up. And he must make his own lasting policy changes that will change American culture for the better.
“Nobody wants to discriminate on the basis of race,” Trump policy strategist May Mailman tells Matthew Peterson of “Blaze News Tonight,” adding, “How can you change the Overton window and change the culture in order to cement some of these things in?”
While these Biden-era woke policies are fighting to stay alive under Trump, the president has wasted no time making an example out of America's Ivy League institutions leading this fight.
“Harvard was issued a list of very reasonable demands, like stop discriminating against your students,” Mailman explains, noting that these policies encouraged anti-Semitism. “Anti-Semitism is a symptom. It shows that there’s a problem, but it is not itself the disease.”
“If you treat white people as hierarchically worse than other people, that will result in anti-Semitism. So the things that we’re asking them to do are actually what the Supreme Court has asked them to do, and Harvard decided to say, ‘Get lost,’” she continues.
However, Harvard has quickly learned that starting a fight with the federal government will not end well for them.
“The federal government gives you things. That’s all it does. It just gives you things,” Mailman says of the government’s relationship with universities.
“Ultimately, it’s going to be a very clear choice. Do the right thing, do well by your students, and continue to have access to research money and other benefits, or don’t,” she continues, adding, “You can’t discriminate against people, and you’re going to start seeing that more and more and more.”

Biden’s ‘Hail Mary’: Threatening to REFORM the ‘extreme’ Supreme Court
Joe Biden may have dropped out of the 2024 presidential race — but that doesn’t mean he won’t try to take the country down with him on his way out.
In a speech on Monday at the LBJ Presidential Library in Texas, Biden outlined his plan to get back at Trump and “reform” the Supreme Court, and he railed against the “extreme positions” he believes some of the justices hold.
“I’m calling for a constitutional amendment, called ‘No one is above the law amendment,’” Biden mumbled. “No immunity for crimes former president committed while in office.”
“That already exists. They can’t actually commit crimes on purpose,” Pat Gray of “Pat Gray Unleashed” comments. “If the president, if he was about to go strangle one of the reporters there and kill them, he would be held responsible and accountable for that.”
Biden continued his barely intelligible speech, telling the audience that he believes “we should have term limits for Supreme Court Justices of the United States as well.”
“The United States is the only major constitutional democracy that gives lifetime seats in their high court. Term limits would help ensure that the court membership changes with some regularity,” Biden said, proposing an 18-year-term limit.
“That would help ensure the country would not have what it has now, an extreme court,” he continued, noting that those on the court have “an extreme agenda.”
“They’re always following the playbook of socialists and Nazis and fascists,” Gray says, after Keith Malinak notes that Cuban American congressmen and women said the first thing Nicholas Maduro did in Venezuela was change the Supreme Court.
However, Speaker Mike Johnson claims that the plan would be “dead on arrival.”
When reporters asked Biden about Johnson’s claim, Biden retorted with “he is,” as in Johnson is “dead on arrival.”
“Isn’t that violent rhetoric? Is that a threat?” Gray asks, shocked.
