If you're keeping track at home, I just realized I did it again.

Follow us on X at FDR LST, not Twitter. I'm joined today by Chris Brunette.

He's a contributing editor over at the American conservative he writes on

substack at Carlstack.substack.com that's Carl with a k. We taped this on December

21st just as the New York Times came out with an article, actually

following up on some of the reporting that Chris Brunette did with Chris Ruffo on

Claudine Gay and plagiarism. They really kicked this whole thing off by starting to look into examples of Claudine Gay, the president of Harvard in the past having plagiarized other people's work.

So what I talk about with Chris on today's episode,

and I'm introducing it here,

just to sort of give a preview of what's to come

is his work exposing gay the various examples of plagiarism that we now have his plans to keep digging into this in academia in the future. It's all really, really interesting.

And I think it does speak to a lot of deeper problems in higher education and this sort of really

uncomfortable reality that we are sending so many of our best and brightest through this four-year filter that may never leave them.

Especially in Ivy League, but it's, yeah, I shouldn't even say especially in the Ivy League.

It's obviously exists in state schools in the deepest red of red states.

It's basically everywhere and before long, know people look around in 2020 people look around now after October 7th and oh my goodness what has happened to higher education and we've had this debate you know a couple of times on the show.

Since October 7th, we've talked about it,

felt like every day in 2020, because it was so important and

pressing.
