00:03As the federal government is determining pulling funding from some of these universities that they think are not deserving of that federal funding,
00:09do you think that there's any safeguard that should be in place to make sure the government doesn't get in the business of stopping intellectual freedom?
00:17Well, I think the most important safeguard to any of this is just the law.
00:21And if you look at Harvard, of course, that's been the university that's been most in the public eye.
00:25I mean, look, Harvard, to every reasonable interpretation, I think has violated the Civil Rights Act of 1964 by engaging in explicit racial discrimination.
00:35To say nothing else of Harvard's many other sins, if you're violating the law as a university, you shouldn't receive taxpayer money.
00:43I don't know why it's more controversial than that.
