InfluenceWatch Podcast #366: Harvard and Tax Exemptions


June 4, 2025

The second Trump administration has conducted an aggressive campaign against Harvard University, targeting its use of racial considerations in admissions and hiring and its apparent lack of concern for the rights of its Jewish students. Among the proposals the administration is considering to retaliate against Harvard is taking away its charitable tax status; our guest today sees that not as an end, but merely the beginning of the debate, with a provocative argument that all charities should have certain tax advantages removed from the tax code. Joining us to discuss the possible effects of such a policy is National Review’s John Fund.
