The mobster shakedown.

And many, many people, who shouldn't, are allowing it to happen.

Ucla can’t act without the approval of the UC President and of the Board of Regents, UC is a separate entity under the California constitution. The regents must act in the best interest of the people and of the system… Thus, when Trump extorting Ucla he’s also extorting Berkeley, San Francisco, Davis, Santa Cruz, Merced, Santa Barbara, Irvine, Riverside and San Diego—also UC-managed labs: Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, and Los Alamos National Laboratory.

…The fundamental source of science (nuclear) and medical research in the U.S. will die.

[quote]California Governor Gavin Newsom said on Saturday that a $1 billion settlement offer by President Donald Trump's administration for UCLA amounted to political extortion to which the state will not bow.

[quote]"Donald Trump has weaponized the DOJ (Department of Justice) to kneecap America's #1 public university system — freezing medical & science funding until @UCLA pays his $1 billion ransom," the office of Newsom, a Democrat, said in a post. "California won't bow to Trump's disgusting political extortion," it added. "This isn't about protecting Jewish students - it's a billion-dollar political shakedown from the pay-to-play president."
