| 0:00.0 | Happy New Year. It's Wednesday, January 3rd, 2024, a rare scalp in the battle against |
| 0:05.2 | woke academia. The caucus approaches and my New Year's resolution. Next on the AM update. Claudine Gay has resigned as Harvard University president on Tuesday due to six new plagiarism complaints. |
| 0:28.2 | In a letter to the school community, she expressed love for Harvard, but stated that the decision was not easy. |
| 0:34.0 | After consulting with the corporation, Gay decided to step down for Harvard's best |
| 0:39.1 | interest, emphasizing the need for community to focus on the institution rather than individual. |
| 0:43.9 | She also portrayed herself as a victim citing personal attacks and threats based on racial |
| 0:48.9 | animus as frightening experiences. The outgoing president plans to return to faculty work focusing on scholarship and |
| 0:55.9 | teaching. After becoming Harvard University's 30th president on July 1st of last year, Gay, known for |
| 1:01.5 | her leftist views, emphasized climate alarmism and identity politics as a hallmark of her career. |

| 1:46.5 | with the free beacon and exposing in the drip, drip, drip fashion they did marks a nearly |
| 1:50.5 | unprecedented flex against woke academia like Harvard. Of course, the battle is far from over, |
| 1:56.1 | but they did it through solid, even reporting, and actual journalism, not the yellow stuff you see from most |
| 2:01.7 | corners of the internet on days ending in Y. Hats off to Rufo and Burnett. We're now less than two |
| 2:07.6 | weeks away from the first in the nation Iowa caucuses. All eyes are upon GOP contenders Donald Trump, |
