Lol, MIT just showed they got bigger balls than most these politicians. F Trump’s ‘Pay or Play’ BS, education isn’t a damn business. Props to them for standing their ground.

“The Massachusetts Institute of Technology on Friday became the first university to reject President Donald Trump’s ‘Compact for Academic Excellence in Higher Education,’ which critics have called an ‘extortion’ agreement for federal funding.”
Trump is asking schools to sign what can only be called a loyalty oath in order to receive funding.
