President Trump intends to sign an executive order that would put at risk federal research funding to colleges and universities that fail to protect free speech on campus, he announced Saturday.
“Today I am proud to announce that I will be very soon signing an executive order requiring colleges and universities to support free speech if they want federal research dollars,” the president said during a speech at the Conservative Political Action Conference in Oxon Hill, Md.
“If they want our dollars, and we give it to them by the billions, they’ve got to allow people like Hayden and many other great young people and old people, to speak, free speech,” said Trump. “If they don’t, it will be very costly. That will be signed very soon.”

ReplyDeleteLOL - next they'll give us permission to exercise our 2nd Amendment rights!
ReplyDeleteIt's absurd that it's come to this. "Free speech zones"... what is that?
ReplyDeleteIt's ironic that the party that effectively created the ACLU is now the party that discourages 'free-speech', in that, any speech that does not conform to their narrative and beliefs is considered 'hate-speech', thereby constituted not to be 'free-speech'.
ReplyDeleteIs it any wonder that academia and millennial's support free college education, since most kids are indoctrinated liberals when they graduate? Just think if college grads voted Republican, I would seriously doubt that the Dem's would still support free education.
It's absolutely the right thing to do, Mr. President. Good work!
