What a stupid article

Every newspaper has to have its "dumbest opinion writer" and for the Boston Globe that person is Yvonne Abraham.  She basically writes the same essay over and over again: Orange Man Bad.  Today is no different: "Trump won’t stop attacking Harvard. We need to treat it like an emergency."

Yes, shed a tear for the institution with a $50 billion endowment.

They [attacks on Harvard] include multiple bogus investigations, including one from the Justice Department into whether Harvard has been lying to the government about its admissions policy; billions in federal research funding cuts and freezes at the school and its partners for various reasons, from the school’s purported failure to stem antisemitism on campus, to discrimination against white students, to its failure to include enough conservative faculty and orthodoxy to satisfy the administration.

Well, are these allegations true, Yvonne?  Is Harvard skirting admission policies set down by the Supreme Court?  Is it taking steps to protect Jewish students?  Like a typical leftie "journalist" this paragraph just sits there and we're supposed to believe - like good Boston Globe readers - the allegations are lies because they were made by the Trump administration. 

This is implied in the next section of this piece where Abraham claims Trump doesn't care about the Jews (including his own grandchildren) because...some crypto coins have offensive names.  No, I am not making that up.

Fifty of the people who bought their way into a private audience with Trump at his Virginia golf club on Thursday night own crypto assets with names only white supremacists could love.

As the article Abraham links to this story reports, the crypto world is full of stupid coins and there's no evidence that these people even know they own them due to the way crypto is mined:

It is not clear to what extent holders of these assets intended to acquire them. For example, it is possible to automate purchases, a strategy that wouldn’t necessarily take into account the name of the assets being purchased. Furthermore, even if the buyers did knowingly buy the tokens, they could have done so solely as a bet on their value, indifferent to the name of the asset. 

But now that we've gotten to the heart of every Yvonne Abraham article, let's cut-and-paste the usual Project 2025 and Viktor Orban stuff before finishing up with the standard cry to the clouds:

And if the extremists who run the country get away with doing this to Harvard, they can destroy any school, kicking crucial pillars out from under our democracy.

Sure thing, toots.  If democracy is so precious, why doesn't Harvard use its own money to protect it?  Don't answer: we know why.
