5 d. ago Harvard, jousting with Trump, found a real Magna Carta. It’s a grand coincidence

Now that the piece’s provenance is confirmed, it’s fair to say it’s actually priceless.Dave Schilling is a Los Angeles-based writer and humorist Continue reading...

Vance’s lecture was an indictment of American higher education: a “hostile institution” that “gives credibility to some of the most ridiculous ideas that exist in this country”. The aspiring politician did not mince words before his receptive rightwing audience: “If any of us wants to do the things we want to do We have to honestly and aggressively attack the universities.” The title of Vance’s keynote was inspired by a quote from Richard Nixon: “The universities are the enemy.”The Maga movement, of which Vance, the vice-president, is now at the forefront, has been unabashedly on the attack against campuses, professors and students. Donald Trump characterizes colleges as “dominated by Marxist maniacs and lunatics”, and student protesters as “radica...
