The Dworkin - Harvard Fights Back and More Great News That's Awful for Trump

As we inch closer to the weekend—and deeper into Trump and Musk’s chaos, I am happy to have more great news for you today. I hope it gives you some relief from the madness, even if just for a moment. Thanks so much for reading. Let’s dive in.

This weekend, there will be another round of large protests, with Hands Off, No Kings, and Tesla Takedown demonstrations being held across the country. Plus, the 50501 movement has more than 400 events planned—ranging from food and clothing drives, to rallies, park cleanups, and more.

In a great show of resistance, head coach of the NBA’s Golden State Warriors, Steve Kerr, wore a Harvard Basketball t-shirt after a game the other night. Kerr made it clear: “Yes, this is me supporting Harvard. Way to go. Way to stand up to the bully.”

Kerr expanded on his thoughts, saying: “I believe in academic freedom. I think it's crucial for all of our institutions to be able to handle their own business the way they want to. And they should not be shaken down and told what to teach, what to say, by our government. That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard.” Well said, coach!
