Watch CNBC's full interview with Education Secretary Linda McMahon

She is wonderful. Stop the Non sense.

Even maga folks want to tax the rich! What a world.

Brick 🧱 for brains

You should have asked about the draconian student loan changes in the bill

What a ignorant cow

M.I.T. is more important than Harvard. Technically and for US economic competition.

"and universities should be able to do good research as long as they are abiding by the law AND in synch with the administration and what its trying to accomplish"...wow!...first it was media...then law firms and now universities. Next up?? Any guesses??...The monitoring and policing of the Internet to make sure "it" is abiding by the law and in synch w/ the administration

Harvard doesn’t need to be in sync with the administration. And it doesn’t have to accept Barron.

I suffered huge losses trading as a beginner. I thought I could trade on my own, but my small investments keep declining. Do you have any tips or recommendations?

The oligarchy corrupted political duopoly offers voters a criminal with dementia or a criminal narcissist. NEVER vote for any candidate that is a member of either corrupt political party and instead ALWAYS vote for ONLY independent candidates who will represent working class families in regards to economic equality, social justice and environmental protection. It’s just that simple.

Shut down communist Harvard Hate

Give it to trade schools.

Small minded…sure…but…is Joe wearing a bra?

Host:”why was the Harvard letter and the Columbia letter of demands so different”
Secretary of Education for the United States of America: “those are questions that should asked and I would like to know the answer…”
What in the blue &%$# are we doing…

This woman epitomizes a DEI hire she has zero qualifications for the job of Education Secretary.

It’s really sickening seeing how far OUR president will go to please a Genocidal state. This country clearly doesn’t belong to Americans anymore as they are even dictating what is allowed in OUR universities now. Make America OURS Again.

Word salad. Doesn’t have a clue

All roads lead to antisemitism?

Why do PRIVATE Universities get public money?? Send the money to public Universities!!

I don't think most Americans want more ways for the government to tax, especially donations

This woman or Trump having anything to do with higher education is scary as hell.

What makes these schools ELITE other their tuition level. Would put my University of Illinois BA degree on par with any of these universities— at 10% the cost. This such a ridiculous conversation and no one wants to discuss this. Disgusting.

What great things has Harvard done? I can't think of any

Harvard is full of taxpayer funded money bloated arrogant people who have so much money their answer to negotiation is to start a law suit. Stop ALL tax payer money to them

The current administration is willing to destroy a multi-billion dollar educational and research institution for simple revenge (Baron) or political favors ( silencing anti-Israel protests)? If you cut off the universities, you're essentially cutting of advancements in all sectors of the economy. The enemy isn't the university or universities it's the people in and around the current administration.

Public funding for public schools ... private money for private schools ...

We have prestigious public schools and they should get public money ...

Republicans are the big tax party now

I truly cannot wait for Democrats to take back the House in 2028 so that all of these liars, thieves, and corrupt officials can be investigated for their treason against this country.

MAGA JOE should not be allowed to interview MAGA guest. This is not FOX where he just agrees with everything they say.

The Republican Party is a criminal organization.

Her husband is a predator so … completely complacent 🤷‍♂️

Completely clueless!!

What about church endowments?

universities have ZERO obligation to be in lockstep with the administration. if that was the case, all evangelical schools should be shut down.

Does Lin know that she’s part of trump’s joke? A highly uneducated person running the department of education?

Did Becky question tax on large college football programs? Does she not understand that college football is pretty much a religion? IRS gets income tax from the players NIL deals. Govy is getting paid something.

Should we tax the churches as well?

The only reason why Trump is going after Harvard and higher education is because they don’t support the idiot

I cannot stand this talking head. He loves the fascist dictator in charge of ruining our country for his and his family's gain.

This is what happens when a "theatrical wrestling league" person heads the Department of Education. Putin's Puppets are trying to destroy one of the top colleges on the planet using ridiculous extortion tactics.

Instead of 'we need to make college more affordable' it's 'we need more factory workers'

Joe Kernan is just another MAGA mouthpiece who tries to disguise his views but does not do well, waste of space. This Ed secretary is a joke

Self loathing Liberals are the new Communists ...... !!!

Taxing endowments is retaliation

Come on CNBC - only Andrew showed up as a credible journalist. Yes, be respectful to the SecEd, and also challenge the BS vs accept talking points and deflection.

If she doesn’t know what SecState is doing w student visas ask why the cabinet is so uncoordinated and why she’s not more up in arms about the impact on education.

Control of education is one of the bricks that make up the architecture of a dictatorship, which is the real motivation here - heil tRump, huh? What she and tRump don't realize is that the socioeconomic/social elite that both want to be a part of think they're white trash!

So Linda McMahon is ok with churches being taxed?

How can we make our point? Lets threaten their endowments with a tax.... its so clear what shes saying. This is authoritarianism.

Simple mind set Joe and the wrestling queen that has no idea on what is expected of our Secretary of Education. Endowment has nothing to do with educational services it’s the people attained their aspirations in life returning that in contributions to keep the learning experience on the tip of the spear. Maybe if your interest in whose attending these institutions Harvard, Yale, Princeton or even UCLA thats a fair request but if your interested in people paying your fair share on taxes let’s put everyone in this category including the wealthy, corporation and those hedge fund managers make them pay. Although my children or grand children will attend these institutions our greatest presidents earned their educational experience in these institutions. Make it fair make it an open dialogue with the American people not someone that has a grudge against a highly respected institutions.
