Harvard professor calls Trump's attacks 'authoritarianism'

Season 2025 Episode 150 | 8m 50s

The Trump administration’s fight with Harvard isn’t letting up. The White House has moved to strip more than $2 billion in federal grants, block international student enrollment and suspend student visa appointments. Some at Harvard are speaking out, including professor and cognitive scientist Steven Pinker. He joined Geoff Bennett to discuss his op-ed titled “Harvard Derangement Syndrome.”
