Why Isn’t MIT Cutting Ties With Chomsky Over Jeffrey Epstein?

Harvard and the University of Austin purged Larry Summers over his association with Jeffrey Epstein.

As Front Page has reported over the years, Epstein also had ties to DSA guru Noam Chomsky. Now the latest release of Epstein files emails shows just how close that relationship was.

In a letter, Chomsky described the notorious sex offender as a “highly valued friend” for “half a dozen years” with whom he had been “in regular contact” in what the Cambodian genocide denier deemed to be a “most valuable experience for me.”

Epstein reportedly extended an offer to Chomsky to stay at his Manhattan townhouse.

Chomsky has stonewalled and refused to address questions about his relationship with Epstein over the years and his academic sinecures have allowed him to get away with it. Now, the Guardian (of all publications) asks that basic question of some of those universities.

Including MIT.

The infamous Epstein email contains “a typed signature with Chomsky’s name and citing his position as a University of Arizona laureate professor.”

The University of Arizona had no response. MIT responded with a generic disavowal of Epstein.

Why the differing standards? One reason is that the Left disliked Summers for broader political reasons, but is in thrall to Chomsky. And so radical academia continues covering for one of the worst men in its midst.

If Cambodian genocide denial couldn’t convince academia to cut loose Chomsky, his Epstein ties won’t.
