Is Leo Varadkar Turning Harvard more WOKE Sparking US Defunding – The Pentagon has cut military related funding stating they want – “Warriors not Wokesters” – Is this a case of the final straw – Woke overload – Varadkar in – Soldiers out?

The Pentagon has cut Harvard military-related funding

The Pentagon has cut military-related funding and academic ties with Harvard University, effective starting the 2026–2027 academic year.

This involves ending sponsorship of graduate-level professional military education (PME), fellowships, certificate programs, and other training opportunities for active-duty service members at Harvard. Current enrollees can finish their programs, but no new ones will be funded or supported.Key Details of the Cut

• Announced by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth on February 6–7, 2026
  
• The move severs all such partnerships, redirecting resources to public universities or internal military programs focused on “lethality,” “deterrence,” and warrior training.
