Obama Pressured Harvard to Keep DEI Misanthrope Claudine Gay

21

A new report has revealed that former President Barack Obama has privately lobbied for support of Harvard President Claudine Gay, who came under fire for statements made during a congressional hearing on antisemitism, and then for allegations of plagiarism. Like Claudine Gay, Obama was a mediocre student with no scholarly work or accomplishment of any kind, who rose to unimaginable heights because of affirmative action and woke promotion.

“According to a source familiar with the matter,” The Jewish Insider wrote, “Obama, a Harvard graduate, had privately lobbied on Gay’s behalf as she faced pressure to resign in the wake of her disastrous appearance before the congressional hearing on antisemitism.”

Anyone who thought affirmative action was merely some benign feel-good (though thoroughly unfair and insidious) scheme surely must now see how destructive and wicked its effects. The cataclysm of affirmative action policies was the Obama’s presidency, the most ruinous period in American history.

Obama privately lobbied on Harvard President Claudine Gay’s behalf amid antisemitism controversy: Report

‘It sounded like people were being asked to close ranks,’ a source said of Obama’s involvement

By Nikolas Lanum Fox News, December 22, 2023 12:56pm EST

A confidential source familiar with the matter told Jewish Insider on Tuesday that Obama, a Harvard graduate, had privately lobbied on Gay’s behalf following her congressional appearance about antisemitism and threats against Jewish students on the Ivy League campus.

“It sounded like people were being asked to close ranks to keep the broader administration stable—including its composition,” the source said of Obama’s involvement.

In early December, Gay sat before the House Committee on Education and the Workforce, where she was asked whether calling for the genocide of Jews on campus violates the university’s codes of conduct related to bullying and harassment.

Her claim that the alleged conduct would only warrant a response from the school based on the “context” drew criticism across social media and even prompted a response from the White House.

Gay issued an apology after the hearing and the fellows of the Harvard Corporation, the university’s highest government body, released a Dec. 12 statement backing the Harvard president despite widespread calls for her resignation. The board also addressed allegations of plagiarism regarding Gay’s academic writing first flagged in October.

On Tuesday, Harvard’s research integrity officer, Stacey Springs, reportedly received a complaint detailing more than 40 allegations of plagiarism — ranging from missing quotation marks around a few phrases or sentences to entire paragraphs lifted verbatim — regarding Gay’s academic works, according to a document obtained by the Washington Free Beacon.

The Harvard Corporation also released a summary of a review Wednesday evening, saying Gay will request three corrections from Harvard’s Office of the Provost regarding her 1997 Ph.D. dissertation, The Harvard Crimson reported.

Through additional review, Harvard said it found two additional instances of “duplicative language without appropriate attribution.”
[…]
That same day, House Education and the Workforce Committee Chairwoman Virginia Foxx, R-N.C., sent a letter to Harvard Corporation Senior Fellow Penny Pritzker demanding more information about the university’s handling of plagiarism allegations against Gay and “the unequal application of Harvard’s Honor Code.”

The controversy has put a spotlight on Pritzker, a former Obama administration official and Chicago hotel billionaire who donated $100 million to Harvard last month.

Last December, Pritzker personally led the search committee that named Gay president, calling her a “remarkable leader who is profoundly devoted to sustaining and enhancing Harvard’s academic excellence” at the time.

Proof that on the Left it’s not what you know but who you know that matters.

An affirmative action, DEI hire. She’s never had an original thought or idea in her life. Everything she has accomplished is based on lies and skin color.

The decision to retain the University President largely depended on Penny Pritzker.
She is Jewess.
And she did everything possible to help Gay , despite the fact that Gay did nothing to stop the rioters from walking around campus and shouting “Death to the Jews!”
The irony of fate is that her great-grandfather, Yakov Pritzker, took the family to America from Kyiv, fleeing pogroms.
And his great-granddaughter Penny defends the rioters at Harvard.

Because Gay is a AA fraud with no morals and a history of depravity, she is the perfect puppet for the left. She will do as told no matter how immoral or depraved. One must have these qualities or you get the George Santos treatment where they boot you from power without so much as a trial. Aren’t you glad you live in a banana republic run by deviant reprobates? Too bad your votes are a joke.

The older Barack Insane Obamao gets the more radical he gets. The mask falls off and his true homosexual Marxist self emerges.

Soon he will be telling who he really is and where he was truly born. He is the one born of a dog in The Omen.

If O had as many sticking OUT of him as he’s had stuck IN him, … he’d look like a porcupine.

One aspect of all these mediocre low IQ token blacks like Gay and Osambo which really pisses me off is the permanent smug look on their faces. The droopy eyelids and condescending smirk. They are SO stupid they can’t even recognise their own stupidity. They actually believe the BS the Soros/Pritzker crowd spews out when installing them. Not very bright, but as cunning as a shit house rat as we say in Oz

I always hated Obama, for his dishonesty, Cuban-influenced Marxism, arrogance, and pathetic leadership. Kind of thought his telling us what America was, its evils, and ill-born origins made me sick.

Evidence has been given that BHO’s real father is Frank Marshall Davis, who was an amateur pornographer.

That’s how those with Narcissistic Personality Disorder manifest. They see the darkness of others in their own reflection then promote the cloned personality into positions of power.

Obama was very clever in deceiving people. He’s 100 Muslim even though his mother was white and a racist.

The Usurper Obama never was “President”.
The Usurper Obama should have been executed back in 2008 for the UNLAWFUL taking of the Office.
The Usurper Obama is not/was not a “Natural Born Citizen” as REQUIRED BY THE CONSTITUTION.
The Usurper Obama is not/was not, most likely, even a US Citizen as he was adopted, at the age of 6, by Lolo Soetoro (Indonesian citizen & muslim) thus making Obama his “legal, lawful, natural born child”. This made the Usurper Obama an “Indonesian citizen”. Or, don’t any of you understand what “adoption” actually does?

He can not bring in communism, unless he erases the Judeo/Christian ethic. Remember the communist commune founded by John Humphrey Noyes in Oneida, NY? How about the one Robert Owens founded in
New Harmony, IN in 1826?
