White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller spoke with the press on Friday, where he was asked about Harvard.
Transcript
00:00Steve, are you considering what's taking actions against other universities in addition to Harvard?
00:05What does that process look like?
00:06Have you been in touch with any of the other schools that you've heard about what they need to do to avoid a sexual attack?
00:12Well, so obviously Harvard has been engaged in the most pernicious conduct of any of the universities.
00:19They defied a lawful subpoena from DHS.
00:22They're engaged in a pattern and practice of invidious race-based discrimination,
00:26illegal gender and sex-based discrimination.
00:30They failed to comply with the Supreme Court ruling in Students for Fair Admissions,
00:34and that's just the beginning of the examples of Harvard's perfidy and unlawful conduct.
00:39But the administration is, as you know, looking back to our very first executive orders,
00:46is going through a compliance process with all of America's institutions of higher learning and K-12
00:50to ensure rigorous compliance with our nation's civil rights laws,
00:56in particular Title VI and VII and Title IX.
00:58So there's protections against racial discrimination and protections against sex-based discrimination.
01:04And so if a university, for example, is discriminating against white men,
01:07or is discriminating against Asians, or is discriminating against Indians,
01:11or is discriminating against people for being straight,
01:13or is discriminating against, say, a girl or a woman in the K-12 and a girl,
01:18a woman in the collegiate context,
01:21in sports or in access to private facilities,
01:25all of that conduct is unlawful,
01:26and all of it will have to be addressed with the appropriate remedy.
