“Fox & Friends” co-host Pete Hegseth is a graduate of Harvard University, but he felt a need to prove that he didn’t learn a damn thing while a student at the Ivy League university, defacing his diploma live on-air and vowing to return it to his alma mater.
Mediaite reports that Hegseth said he was angry because Harvard teaches critical-race theory (CRT):
“I don’t want to elevate the prestige of Harvard considering what Harvard has become. The head chaplain at Harvard today, the president of the chaplains is an atheist. This was a university founded by John Harvard with the original motto of: for the glory of Christ. When you look at the ubiquitousness of critical theory, of Marxist thinking, of racist thinking, frankly, inside Harvard — why are we holding it up as the vanguard of what is the imprimatur of what makes someone credible?”
Hegseth at least stuck true to his word and pulled out his Master’s Degree in public policy, removing it from the frame and scribbling, “return to sender” across the front. He also crossed out “Harvard” and wrote in its place: “Critical Theory,” making it “Critical Theory University.” Hegseth signed it, as well as Campos-Duffy and fellow co-host Will Cain.
Of course, Hegseth’s stupid stunt doesn’t change the fact that he has a degree from Harvard. He always will, no matter how many diplomas he writes on or mails back to the university. He only did it for ratings.
Next time, Pete, if you really want to make a statement, take one of your Fox checks and refuse to accept it because you work for one of the most destructive forces on the face of the planet. But you won’t, because you’re a greedy, talentless prick like just about everyone who works at Faux News.
