Texas A&M suspended professor accused of criticizing Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick in lecture
The professor was placed on paid administrative leave and investigated, raising questions about the extent of political interference in higher education.
www.wfaa.com So, this professor gives a lecture on the opioid crisis. As soon as she leaves, some mysterious student calls the pres of Texas A&M and says she made a disparaging remark about Lt Gov Patrick (she did not.) Before she can get home, she is in danger of being fired. In the meantime, the admin says it contacted the Lt Gov to keep him informed. They say his chief of staff sent them her bio link? That's bs. Also, the Lt Gov's office has not responded in any fashion to this.
The story title is to imply that the republicans in power are against free speech. Especially as the Lt Gov is trying to halt the spread of racism known as CRT and all that gender nonsense.
But he did nothing of the sort. This is all the aggies saying that they are doing this because they are afraid of him. It is a set-up. And no, the professor is not fired. The created their own drama. And the article is written in such a way that they can crawdad out of that when the Lt Gov finally does speak and shows them to be the lying sacks of shit that they are.
