This is the same @yale that gave us: Steven Mnuchin ’85, Ben Carson ’73, Wilbur Ross ’59, Alex Azar LAW ’91, Stephen Schwarzman ’69, Christopher Wray ’89 LAW ’92 and John Bolton ’70 LAW ’74. 2/https://yaledailynews.com/blog/2018/03/26/yalies-abound-in-trump-administration/ …

But I digress. The picture of
@yale he paints is not recognizable to me and I just walked the dog across Cross Campus. Where were the banners, the posters, the professors hanging their heads in shame in front of Sterling Library? 3/pic.twitter.com/d7cS4qtpeq

@BretStephensNYT's tirade is a long standing canard perpetuated by conservatives that doesn't reflect today's college campuses, it's a caricature. Perhaps it's just Yale he's talking about, but@Harvard students aren't manning the barricades nowadays. 4/ http://harvardpolitics.com/harvard/the-draw-of-consulting-and-finance/ …Show this thread -
In fact, if you add up the percentage of students from Harvard that go into consulting, finance or tech, we're talking almost half of students in one survey. The percentage who go for fomenting revolution is far lower. 5/https://features.thecrimson.com/2017/senior-survey/after-harvard-narrative/index.html …

So, why the red-baiting of
@yale? Because if you point the finger at "those elites", then you stop looking at those other elites w their hands on your wallet. If you're angry at teenagers in New Haven, you won't have time to look at those in DC taking your for a ride. 6/pic.twitter.com/alXgLP6aPe

If you want to talk ideological take-over of American universities, then you should read

The magician's talent is in misdirection, so is the con-man's. It's
@realDonaldTrump's game & it's@BretStephensNYT's too. And it's all part of the same grift. Don't worry about@yale. Worry about men who tell you they're on your side, but are on no-one's side but their own. 8/pic.twitter.com/4oYBax7gXA

And if you want another take on
@BretStephensNYT's piece take a look at my@yale colleague@jasonintrator's recent tweet too (and it's a far more dire interpretation, which I fear is true). 9/https://twitter.com/jasonintrator/status/1157617548747321344?s=20 …
