They Silenced Her: The Real Reason Chelsea Manning Was Kicked Out of Harvard | Graham Elwood In this video, Graham Elwood examines an Intercept report by Jon Schwarz exposing how Harvard University revoked whistleblower Chelsea Manning's fellowship under pressure from the national security state and CIA directors like Mike Pompeo. Graham contrasts this with Fordham University hiring former CIA Director John Brennan—who defended torture and hacked Senate computers—as a distinguished fellow. He analyses the infiltration of corporate power and the military-industrial complex into higher education, referencing Chris Hedges' *Death of the Liberal Class*. ============================================================ ▶️ Subscribe: https://www.youtube.com/@GrahamElwoodOfficial?sub_confirmation=1 ============================================================ 🧊 See the Full Uncensored Investigation Here: Pateron: https://www.patreon.com/grahamelwood Rokfin: https://rokfin.com/grahamelwood 📺 New Comedy Special "Manifest It" on Apple TV: https://tv.apple.com/us/movie/graham-elwood-manifest-it/umc.cmc.65wuzkrazdqspd2pu240x5chp 🤝 Support the Channel (We are demonetised!): 💳 Donate: https://www.grahamelwood.com/#support 💸 Venmo: https://venmo.com/graham-elwood 👑 Join YouTube Members: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCX1rle36wIlP9ry8uidnCsA/join 👕 Merch: https://www.grahamelwood.com/shop/ 🪙 Crypto Support & Affiliates: 🟠 BTC: qzx00qv3cz8xur9ujyewgda3hnc03perpqp2rz7043 🔑 BTC (Alt): 3BWaUfZ3M57KaoWVpxpbKmMEyy9Ybw8vQV 🔷 ETH: 0xD970059f6c57B4f707E778Ba19d6586039b0BD0F 🦢 SwanBitcoin: SwanBitcoin.com/grahamelwood (We both get $10.) 💳 Crypto.com: https://referral.crypto.com/signup?_branch_match_id=766078563177305504 (We both get $25.) ============================================================ 📱 Connect & Listen: 🌐 Website: http://www.grahamelwood.com 📘 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/GrahamElwoodComedy/ 📸 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/grahamelwood 🐦 X/Twitter: https://x.com/grahamelwood 🎤 Live Tour Tickets: www.grahamelwood.com 🎧 Podcast: www.grahamelwood.com/#podcasts ============================================================ 📚 Sources & Further Reading: 1.
