Biden vs. GCU

There is a major legal battle taking place in Arizona right now, highlighting the left’s abuse of government power to crush Christians.

 

In 2021, the Biden administration launched a jihad against Grand Canyon University (GCU), the largest Christian university in the United States. The Department of Education alleged that GCU defrauded students by failing to accurately disclose the costs of its doctoral programs.

 

Last year, Biden’s Education Department hit GCU with an unprecedented $37 million fine, the largest fine ever levied by the department.

 

You would think they would have good cause for that extreme penalty. But just like Donald Trump’s unprecedented New York trial, where no one claimed they were defrauded, the department did not cite any student complaints in its lawsuit against GCU.

 

It appears that these neo-Marxist bureaucrats are following the old Soviet tactic of identifying a target and then making things up in order to punish them.

 

But that’s not all. Biden’s Federal Trade Commission is also targeting the university with another lawsuit!

 

I am pleased to report that attorneys for the conservative Goldwater Institute are fighting back. They are suing the federal government for all communications and any documents that may explain why federal bureaucrats are persecuting GCU with such a draconian fine.

 

The Goldwater Institute attorneys noted how ridiculous the $37 million fine is given that Penn State and Michigan State were fined $2.4 million and $4.5 million, respectively, for covering up serial sexual abuse.

 

By the way, Biden’s Department of Education is also threatening Liberty University, America’s second-largest Christian university, with a $37 million fine.

 

Coincidence? I think not.
