Pete Hegseth Announces War Department Cutting Academic Ties With More Elite Universities

A few weeks ago, Pete Hegseth announced that the War Department was cutting academic ties with Harvard. Now he is following up with a similar move directed towards Yale, Brown, Columbia, MIT, and others.

Hegseth claims that these schools do not share the same values as the U.S. Military because they are teaching students to hate their own country. It is impossible to disagree with him on this.

FOX News reports:

Hegseth bans military from attending Princeton, Columbia, other elite universities: ‘Wokeness and weakness’Secretary of War Pete Hegseth on Friday said he was ordering the “complete and immediate cancellation” of all Department of War attendants at universities like Princeton, Columbia, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), Brown and Yale, starting with the 2026-27 academic year.Hegseth added that the ban would also include “many others,” claiming the higher education system has been “poisoned from within from a class of so-called elite universities who’ve abused their privilege and access to this department and utterly betrayed their purpose.”Hegseth’s announcement comes after he similarly banned active-duty service members earlier this month from attending Harvard starting next year.He accused the universities of gorging themselves for decades on a “trust fund of American taxpayer dollars only to become factories of anti-American resentment and military disdain.”He claimed the universities had replaced “the study of victory and pragmatic realism with the promotion of wokeness and weakness.””This is not education, this is indoctrination,” he added.”The Department of War is finished subsidizing the corruption of our own in uniform class,” he said. “We’re done paying for the privilege of our enemies’ wicked ideologies to be taught to our future leaders. We’ve had enough.””We cannot and will not send our most capable officers, senior officers, into graduate programs that undermine the very values they have sworn to uphold.”

Watch it all below:

This is so long overdue.

If these schools have a problem with this, they can easily correct the problem. They won’t because they simply don’t want to do it.

That should tell you everything you need to know about this.
