  • Summary

  • Tristan dives into Harvard University’s landmark lawsuit against the Trump administration. As the stock markets head for their worst April since 1932, Tristan examines how Harvard is fighting back against what it sees as unconstitutional government overreach threatening academic freedom and free speech. The episode breaks down the legal arguments on both sides, focusing on First Amendment protections and Administrative Procedure Act violations, while explaining why this case represents a critical moment in the ongoing struggle between higher education institutions and a government Tristan characterizes as seeking political retribution. Beyond Harvard’s $53 billion endowment and legal position, Tristan explores the broader implications for research universities nationwide and what’s at stake for American scientific advancement if federal funding to these institutions is threatened.
