Retired professor whose academic work was allegedly plagiarized calls for Harvard's Gay to be fired

Gay: "Ask not what your country can do for you . . ."

If you've ever had anything stolen from you, especially if it's something you made for yourself, you can understand what it must feel like when your academic research and writing was stolen via plagiarism. Well, retired Vanderbilt University professor Dr. Carol Swain certainly does.

Dr. Swain is allegedly one of several of Harvard President Claudine Gay's victims whose work has been stolen and she is calling for Gay to be fired. 

"Fire Claudine Gay posthaste," Dr. Carol Swain posted Thursday on X, as part of a social media post titled "some free unsolicited advice for Harvard University."

"She can be relieved of duties until the terms are negotiated."

Can anyone blame Swain? She is a senior fellow at the Institute for Faith and said that Harvard must hire the best man or woman for the job who can "steer the university back towards sanity."

"Appeasing the Marxist identity politics mob should not be a consideration. The person for the job might be a middle to older age white Jewish man who believes in classical liberalism," she said.

Swain called for Gay to step down last week after Harvard officials chose to accept her antisemitic stance on Jewish students being threatened with genocide and harassment, but the woke folk at the school stood behind her in spite of that and of a probe that found "instances of inadequate citation." That kind of finding had it been of a Harvard student would have caused serious disciplinary action, even expulsion from the university to take place, but in the case of an affirmative action leader, not so much.

On Thursday, Swain also recommended that leaders of Harvard have a "sit down conversation" with the academics who Gay plagiarized from and apologize to alumni, students, parents and donors who have "been harmed and embarrassed" by Gay's behavior. Swain said:

"Have a sit down conversation with the people who have been harmed by the plagiarism of Gay, and the system that protects her. Recognize that Harvard’s systematic racism and classism have far reaching effects. Apologize to alumni, students, parents, and donors who have been harmed and embarrassed."

Gay, you may recall, refused to directly respond to Rep. Elise Stefanik's (R-NY) question at a congressional hearing on Dec. 12 as to whether the calling for genocide of Jews was  against Harvard policy. Gay's apparently coached reply was to say that it depended upon the context but Rep. Stefanik called her out on it and still she responded with the same garbage answer.

But back to the alleged plagiarism. The Washington Free Beacon reported that in four papers published between 1993 and 2017, including her doctoral dissertation, Gay "paraphrased or quoted nearly 20 authors—including two of her colleagues in Harvard University’s department of government—without proper attribution," according to the news site's analysis.

Since the first reports of plagiarism were uncovered, the same news outlet said that Harvard "received a complaint outlining over 40 allegations of plagiarism" against Gay on Tuesday.

Not surprisingly, Dr. Swain, a former Democrat, has been supportive of many conservative issues in the past and even served on former President Trump's "1776 Commission," that showed how false the so called "1619 Project" was about slavery and American history.

Hunter worries if Trump gets elected in ’24, he may need to leave US with Alyssa Milano

Hunter Biden didn’t abide by a Congressional subpoena last week but instead held a press conference of his own, knowing he would be legally untouchable because of his houseplant father.

Hunter’s brain may be mostly burnt, but he is a lawyer and realizes that he was supposed to show up for the hearing but he didn’t care a fiddler’s fart because his dad is the President with a similarly burnt brain. Most people who fail to show up to a Congressional hearing are supposed to be held in contempt but Hunter thinks he's above all that nonsense. 

The press conference Hunter held was on the Senate side because he was likely worried the House sergeant-in-arms would grab him.  

Anyway, Hunter told reporters that if Donald Trump gets elected in 2024 and replaces his "Get Out of Jail Free" dad, he will leave the country and asked one of the so called reporters if Alyssa Milano is married, and if she is, does she care?

So here's where we stand if Trump wins the presidency in 2024:

Hunter Biden will likely leave the country to avoid arrest. He'll probably do Colombia.

The Clintons will permanently close down the Clinton Foundation.

Cher will leave the U.S. but is too old even for Hunter.

Seth Myers will also leave the U.S. with his go-bag [who is evidently a woman].

Lena Dunham will move to Canada along with Snoop Dogg.

Amy Schumer may go to Spain.

Omari Hardwick [aren't they all] will go to Italy.

Samuel L. Jackson will go to Africa.

And I would wager a guess that every one of them, except for Hunter perhaps, will want to return back to America, because even with Trump as President, it will be the greatest country in the world again.

AOC speechless after Tom Homan destroys her empty questioning

Former ICE Director and current Fox News contributor Tom Homan basically destroyed former bartender and current Rep. Alexandria Obviously-Comatose (Socialist Democrat-NY) at a congressional hearing on Friday after she tried to accuse him of being the villain who separates children from their families at the border. Comatose was left, well, comatose.

"It says the official recommendation, there were three different options presented, the third included the option for family separation," AOC said in that annoying nasal voice she was  saddled with at birth. "This initiative would pursue prosecution of all amenable adults including those presenting with a family unit.

"Mr. Homan, your name is on this, is this correct?" the 29-year-old socialist whined.

"Yes, I signed that memo," Homan replied.

"So, you are the author of the family separation policy?" the addled brain and creator of the Green New Deal (a plan that received zero votes in the Senate) asked.

"I'm not the author of this memo," Homan replied.

AOC apparently did not do her due diligence regarding the memo and pretty much everything else she pontificates about.

"You're not the author, but you signed the memo?" she pressed, realizing her mistake.

"Yes, a zero tolerance memo," Homan responded.

"So, you provided the official recommendation to Secretary Neilson on families for the United States to pursue family separation?" she asked, apparently unaware of how ridiculous she sounded.

"I gave Secretary Nielson numerous recommendations on how to secure the border and save lives," Homan, obviously frustrated with her inability to understand him, responded.

"But it says here that you, you gave her numerous options but the recommendation was option three, family separation," she said.

"What I'm saying this is not the only paper where we had given the secretary numerous options to secure the border and save lives," Homan responded.

"And so the recommendation of the many that you recommended, you recommended family separations?" she claimed, while trying to put words in Homan's mouth. It was embarrassing and once again obvious that she was unable to understand his previous responses.

"I recommended zero tolerance," Homan responded.

"Which includes family separation," Comatose pressed.

"The same as is whatever U.S. citizen parent gets arrested when they're with a child," Homan said, apparently becoming more frustrated as it must have felt as if he was talking to the wall.

"Zero tolerance was interpreted as the policy that separated children from their parents," she continued, again not seeming to understand Homan's clear explanation.

"If I get arrested for DUI and I have a young child in the car, I'm gonna be separated," he explained. "When I was a police officer in New York and I arrested a father for domestic violence, I separated that father from their family."

"Mr. Homan, with all due respect, [which, of course, is a lie] legal asylees are not charged with any crime," she said, refusing to acknowledge or admit that the majority of migrants entering the U.S. at the southern border are not legitimate asylum seekers, but are actually freebies-seekers.

"When you're in the country illegally, it's a violation 8 United States Code 13:25," Homan responded.

"Seeking asylum is legal," AOC responded, pretending that this is the reason most migrants come here.

"If you want to seek asylum you go through the port of entry, you do it the legal way," Homan fired back. "The Attorney General the United States has made that clear."

Obviously-Comatose had no response for Homan and immediately moved on to question other people.

She is in over her head and a perfect example of the Dilbert Principle. The only difference being that she wasn't in Congress before being put onto committees, but it does get her out of the way, a little.
