Former Michigan Governor withdraws from research fellowship at Harvard’s Kennedy School of Government

. Earlier this year, the school rescinded an offer to whistleblower Chelsea Manning after criticism from then-CIA Director Mike Pompeo. Before that, the school received criticism after offering fellowships to President Donald Trump’s first press secretary Sean Spicer and former Trump campaign manager Corey Lewandowski.

His withdrawal also comes at a time when conservatives — as well as Trump and his administration — have railed against political intolerance on college campuses. Before his withdrawal, Snyder said in a statement released through the school that he was "excited to join the talented faculty and staff there who are on the leading edge in improving public policy, civic engagement, and innovations in state and local government. I look forward to sharing my experiences in helping take Michigan to national leadership in job creation, improved government performance, and civility.

And all the Flintstones said, “Amen”!!!

People are a bunch of whiny children on the internet.

Well, letting a whole city continue to be poisoned, even after knowing the water was unsafe is pretty awful..actually, he should be in jail.

Good

What exactly has he been convicted of?

One word....Flint!!!

Good.

Explains why Aresnal was crap. Arsene Wenger was moonlighting as Michigan governor.

He should be in prison

Swamp drained, your welcome America!

Good...he is a criminal.

He resurrected Michigan after a disastrous Jennifer Granholm.

Good. Position should never been offered in the first place.

He must be blamed for things that democrats in flint should be also blamed for but he's white and a republican so he makes a good scapegoat for the snowflakes and SJWs

maybe have him speak at a plumbing school oh wait it’s the only subject he’s even worse at

Michigan ex-governor gets Harvard fellowship after Flint water crisisFormer Michigan Gov. Rick Snyder began an appointment at the Harvard John F. Kennedy School of Government on Monday, drawing ire of many who fault him for the lead water crisis in Flint, Michigan. I thought he would be prison for his mismanagement and recklessness. Considering we’re living in Bizarro World, that sounds about right. Justice!Make him drink the water and Bathe in it for 3 Years!

Rick Snyder’s Harvard Fellowship and the Limits of CivilityIt would be notable if Harvard was merely overlooking Snyder’s fatal neglect in Flint, but to do so while touting what he can teach the Harvard community about civility seems especially perverse PatrciaMMarcos He can teach them how to poison an entire community.
