When do we say enough is enough? When do we pull the plug on Universities accepting Federal funding yet breaking the law? Belmont University? I am looking at you.
A Christian university promoting DEI while housing illegal students yet still collecting Federal funding?
Say it isn’t so especially in RED Tennessee.
But here we are where Belmont University continues to break the law despite President Trump and the Administration’s orders.
The University changed Diversity, Equity and Inclusion to “HUB”. A staffer on video admitted to Belmont’s DEI being renamed to Hope, Unity and Belonging and according to that video and it is the same department. A rose by any other name……
Why is a Christian University supporting division? Are all Americans not created equally?
President Trump’s Executive Order banned DEI programs in February of 2025 as we are all equal.
Jozef Lukey, the Belmont employee on video, is seen discussing the purpose of HUB as well as the “presence of undocumented immigrants at Belmont”. This opens the University to a whole new department.
Homeland Security and Secretary Kristi Noem did call out Belmont University as well as Nashville Mayor Freddie O’Connell last week. Why is this Christian University housing immigrants? Is Belmont University above the law?
In interviews with current Belmont students, I have been told they are aware of illegal students on campus and look forward to classes beginning next month and seeing if ICE will have a presence. Conservative students say they are discriminated against and fighting battles with professors daily. They look to the Trump Administration for change especially at a Christian University.
Surprised? I’m not but then again, I told you all about DEI a few years ago but obviously I was not loud enough.
In 2020, my son was Student Government President at Belmont University. His senior year at Belmont was riddled with what can only be compared to living in a Communist regime.
I have first hand experience as I lived in Communist Yugoslavia as a student. I am a witness to the parallels of Yugoslavia and modern day American schools.
As a Conservative who posted on his personal public IG page of being a proud American on the 4th of July in 2020, he was viciously attacked and threatened with bodily harm by the radical left. He was escorted by police when on campus and unable to park his car anywhere near the university.
School administration, Trustees, staff and professors sided with the left as well as publicly endorsing Black Lives Matter. My son refused to endorse the organization and was asked to refrain from hosting Student Government meetings until things “cooled off”. They never did and now, 5 years later, we see that the “cool off” only meant the opposite.
As Americans, we will not longer tolerate the law breakers. As Americans, we support and voted for President Trump to not only make America great again but to save our Country.
President Trump and Border Czar Homan, I am pleading with you to stop the funding and rid us of illegal students in our schools on every level.
Parents, do not allow these schools to continue to brain wash your students. We owe it to our next generation to stand for laws and side with our Country. If we do not, I fear we will lose our Country and Communism will continue in our schools destroying our fundamental American principles and laws.
Join me and President Trump by speaking out and saving your children. There is no reason any student should be threatened and harassed for being a Patriot but here we are.
The book is OUTCAST-How The Radical Left Tried To Destroy A Young Conservative. My son survived the wrath of what is a covertly liberal institution. Will yours?

Thank you Gloria for this very informative OP-ED. Our state and federal levels of government should take action on this.
Lucifer’s dimmercraps have near totally perverted our “education” system.
“HUB”?!?! Here’s where I get lost…How is self-segregating, while simultaneously demanding equity and inclusion, even possible?
“Are all Americans not created equally?” In THEORY, that’s the way it’s supposed to be. In PRACTICE, that has not been the case. Historically racial and religious minority groups have been as a deeply-rooted disadvantage. Diversity, equity, and inclusion policies have simply been an effort to level the playing field, NOT to discriminate against White Christian men.
