Obama obviously wants as many Marxists in positions of power, especially Ivy League schools that help shape the next generation of leaders
In a surprising turn of events, former President Barack Obama has found himself at the center of controversy over his reported efforts to support the now-former Harvard University President, Claudine Gay. While Obama has been silent since Gay’s resignation announcement triggered a social media firestorm, it’s revealed that he privately lobbied on her behalf behind the scenes. Lou Dobbs said ‘Now Harvard’s Corporation is implicated in a cover-up and the influence, if any, of Barack Obama in this scandal is in need of investigation as well, given that he’s said to have interceded on President Gay’s behalf. The Research Integrity office has a lot of explaining to do as well. Harvard’s Claudine Gay is hit with 6 NEW plagiarism accusations’
It’s quite telling to see the silence from Obama on Claudine Gay’s resignation. One has to wonder how much influence was exerted behind the scenes. – Bilal Soomro
A confidential source has claimed Barack Obama, a Harvard graduate, had privately lobbied on Claudine Gay‘s behalf, after her congressional appearance over anti-Semitism and threats against Jewish students. Obama, a Harvard graduate himself, had intervened after Gay’s congressional appearance addressing antisemitism and threats against Jewish students on the prestigious Ivy League campus. The source suggested that Obama’s involvement aimed at maintaining stability within the broader administration, emphasizing the need for unity.

Despite Obama’s behind-the-scenes push, Gay announced her resignation on Tuesday, marking the end of the shortest Harvard presidency in the university’s history. While stepping down from her role as president, she is set to remain a member of the faculty. She also is set to make about 900K a year. This is not exactly a demotion then, after all, as the Left takes care of their own. Even someone who plagiarized her way to the top with a massive tinge of racism.
He is silent on a lot of things as of late.

In her resignation letter to the Harvard community, Gay expressed the difficulty of her decision, stating, “It has been difficult beyond words because I have looked forward to working with so many of you to advance the commitment to academic excellence that has propelled this great university across centuries.” No one believes her outside of her own associates, and people like Obama.

Gay’s departure followed her congressional testimony last month, during which she faced challenges in responding to a direct question from New York GOP Rep. Elise Stefanik about Harvard’s stance on condemning genocide against Jewish people. The incident led to an apology from Gay, and despite widespread calls for her removal from donors and members of Congress, the university’s board chose to support her.

The congressional hearing was prompted by the surge in antisemitism at American universities following the terrorist attacks by Hamas on October 7 in southern Israel. Post-testimony, Gay faced additional scrutiny with plagiarism allegations, with the Washington Free Beacon reporting nearly 50 instances, amounting to “half of Gay’s published works.”
Indiana GOP Rep. Jim Banks commented on the situation, stating, “Elise Stefanik won. Barack Obama lost.” Stefanik, after Gay’s resignation, criticized the lack of an apology in both Gay’s resignation statement and the Harvard Corporation’s statement. She emphasized the failure to address the protection of Jewish students on campus and the pledge to combat antisemitism.
Good. She’s a moral bankrupt, as well as an incompetent. Harvard’s leadership is morally bankrupt, too, as is her patron, Barak Obama- Brad James
As the controversy unfolds, it appears that the repercussions of Gay’s resignation extend beyond her tenure, sparking a broader conversation about leadership, accountability, and the commitment to combating antisemitism within the academic realm. The fallout also raises questions about the role of influential figures, like former President Obama, in shaping the narrative and decisions within esteemed institutions like Harvard University.
