Live May 20, 2026 | Yaron Brook Show (Season 12, Episode 89) Slush Fund; Harvard Grades: Ebola; Woke Dead?; Water & Data Centers; Massie/MAGA | Yaron Brook Show From Harvard’s Collapse to MAGA’s Identity Crisis: Is the Intellectual Rot Finally Being Exposed? Harvard inflates grades while universities rot from within. Ebola resurfaces in the headlines. Woke ideology may be collapsing—but what replaces it? And can America sustain AI, water usage, and massive data centers without triggering political and economic chaos? In this explosive episode of The Yaron Brook Show, Yaron tears into the cultural, political, and philosophical battles shaping America right now—from elite academic corruption and public health hysteria to the future of capitalism, nihilism, and the growing fracture inside MAGA. Why are Americans so apathetic to real injustice? Is “woke” truly dying—or simply mutating? And what happens when a civilization loses confidence in reason, achievement, and individualism? This episode connects today’s biggest headlines to the deeper philosophical crisis underneath them.
