#Billionaire #HarvardAlum #HedgeFund A-Hole who led the drive to oust those female college presidents for alleged #AntiSemitism and boosted #plagiarism #accusations against ousted #Harvard prez #ClaudineGay is angry people are now leveling similar accusations against his own wife, another #IvyLeague female academic at #MIT
The prolific #PershingSquare #investor and anti #DEI #blowhard has said of himself “If I think I’m right, I can be the most persistent and most relentless person in America.”
