David Rockefeller Pledges $100 Million To Harvard

Retired banker and philanthropist David Rockefeller has pledged 100 million dollars to Harvard University, the largest gift from an alumnus in the school's history, Harvard announced Friday.

Rockefeller, a member of the Harvard class of 1936 and scion of the wealthy family that started Standard Oil, made the pledge "to increase learning opportunities dramatically for Harvard undergraduates through international experiences and participation in the arts," a university statement said.

"Harvard opened my eyes and my mind to the world," Rockefeller said.

You people should pay more attention this man is one of the leaders of the NWO in a few worlds this man runs America. This old man along with the roschilds family decide who become president here in the US and europe. IF this man decides that Obama can't be president then obama will not be president. ahh thanks alot huff for giving us a article about the man behind the curtain that runs the USA

[MyTake]

I am certain that part of that money will go to staffing those 10 positions of the secret "Skull & Bones" society run out Harvard which is Rockefeller's principal recruiting center for hatching brain-washed thugs that will rise and be positioned inside government to manage the Rockefeller agenda.

The Rockefeller lineage committed treason in WWII when Standard Oil profited from both sides. They sold oil to the Nazi's through Spain and were the principal supplier to the U.S. Military. They interlocked with Germany's I.G. Farben, the principal chemical conglomerate for Hitler. But when the U.S. government invaded Standard Oil with search warrants for treason during the war, they were threatened with withdrawal of oil and gas if they prosecuted Standard Oil. After the War, the government broke up the Standard Oil monopoly into the 7 ugly sisters oil companies which Rockefeller still controlled through trusts.

Then, this dear man had standing permission to land his private jet at Moscow Airport throughout the Cold War. He also praises the Communist thugs in China on how well they manage a billion population base.

Harvard should give the money back. Oh, I forgot, it is they who cleansed the Rockefeller crimes from history! Someone should tell that Wright pastor that those "rich white folks" that run America that there is a picture of him on this website!

Skull & Bones is based at Yale.

[vandegrasse]

I didn't know the Republican Party of pirates was based at Yale.

[vandegrasse]

Censors,

Protecting the rich tonight are you?

Manus manum lavat.

Somebody needs to make sure that the oligarchy entitlement factory, the Ivy League, is well funded so that the next generation of ruling class will be prepared to take control when their fathers die..

[WIpatriot]

And get a tax deduction for it.

[oceanlover]

Astonishing, absolutely astonishing that Mr. Rockefeller couldn't think of even ONE truly struggling institution desperately in need of funds to donate his dollars to. This type of donation is merely for self serving attention. Otherwise he'd have done so without his name attached. It's done all the time.

[truthyguy]

It is his money to do with as he pleases, and he pleases to donate it to Harvard.

P.S. If you disagree with his choice, then give your $100 million to the school of your choice.

[vandegrasse]

Actually, it's all the money from the working men and women he and his family swindled it out of over the years. So I suppose it actually his if you believe in legal thievery which I gather you do.

[LiberalBuzz]

Wow, Another hundred million to add to Harvard's THIRTY BILLION they already have while smaller colleges are in dire straits for money.

While California's great governator is slashing the school budget by FOUR BILLION and of course doing nothing about the real waste in CA.

Yeah a hundred million to Harvard. Makes as much sense as giving Bill Gates a hundred million.

[vandegrasse]

I have a niece who went to Harvard. She's no better educated than anyone else I know who went to college. She has her snotty little nose stuck way up in the air but it's breathing the same dirty air we all breathe.

[falco]

Interesting, only 20 or so comments concerning the biggest criminal family, aside from the Rothschilds, in the world.

[WIpatriot]

Got a number in mind we should be hitting? I mean, it's not like anybody's playing a race card or a sex card...

[northof55]

I see I'm not the only one suspicious when it come to Davey boy. Fact is David Rockefeller has done more damage to the world than any single individual. His own children wouldn't talk to him for years because of his dealing in central and south America. HE has managed to flood governments across the US with CFR and Trilateralist for years. They all come from the same circles.

And don't forget, the Rockefellers started the University of Chicago where Milty Friedman came up with all of his great ideas. The U of C economics department thinking has dominated world economic views with Neo-Liberal economics for 50 years. And, anyone can see the results.

And NAFTA, yes, another of Davey boys bright ideas. The world will be a much better place when his influence is gone, but, hes managed to brainwash enough people to continue his corrupt work.

[WIpatriot]

Suspicious? Please. I'm surprised he doesn't go up in flames in sunlight.

[dadw5boys]

DAVID, WE KNOW YOU ARE ONE OF THE DRIVING FORCES BEHIND THE DESTRUCTION OF THE U.S. GOVERNMENT!!!!!!!!!
You and a few other want to destory the Social Security System and bring back the guilded age!!!!!!!

[mamacat]

$100 million. A fraction of the cost of a B-1 bomber. About 6 hours worth of paying the cost of the Iraq war.
It's great when people give to charity or to philanthropies, but how about stopping the war, reinstating fair taxes on these people, and using the government for something besides making the rich richer?

[Wiredwilly]

A free beer says David Rockefeller was involved in 9 /11. You Tube : " Rockefeller reveals 9/11 FRAUD to Aaron Russo." Thomas Jefferson said " The Central Bank is an institution of the most deadly hostility existing against the form and Principles of our Constitution. If the American People allow private banks to control the issuance of their currency, first by inflation and then by deflation, the Banks and corporations that will grow up around them will deprive the People of all their property until their children will wake up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered ". Mr. Rockefeller , now 92, seems to be trying to buy his way out of his Karma, using philanthropy as a Public Relations ploy to divert attention from who he REALLY is. Unfortunately, Karma is inescapable.

[rektruax]

"Mr. Rockefeller , now 92, seems to be trying to buy his way out of his Karma"

92 years of wealth and power... That's some real effective "Karma" ya got there. Unless you're talking about "after this life" Karma which is just silliness.

Harvard is one of the few top schools that offers 100 percent no cost education to qualifying low income students.

David's endowment will go a long way for programs like these. But then again, it's a lot easier to hate the rich and make up dumb conspiracy theories about people you don't know.

[ruleoflaw66]

Every word you say is true. But I believe that the money is to ensure the continuation of the Dynastic families that control those banks and corporations. The Ivy League is really nothing more than the farm leagues for the Bigs--Only when those entitled, privileged, spoiled sons and daughters of the Uber wealthy finally make it to a major league team, they get more than a measly $3 million a year signing bonus.

[dadw5boys]

I agree!!!!!!!

[loki]

Where do most of the most influential CEOs and Politicians come from? Jr. College then finishing at a local or state college? Nope. Majority of the people who have destroyed or economy and driven out country into a perpetual state of war, made us hated universally, screws anyone with less than a million dollars are all from either Harvard or Yale. I think its about time to end the good old boy ivy league system driven by greed. Lets see what happens when someone who had to actually work their way through school , and or take out student loans and the little fed aid available for non wealthy students these days and actually have to study and pass courses based on knowledge and not family money and donations. I mean really, could they do any worse than these blood suckers trained by the ivy league schools? I would bet a schizophrenic who lives in a dumpster and never made it past 3rd grade could not only do better, but have better morals and ethics than anyone from Harvard ever would. Time to stop assigning seats of power based on name brand education, and assign them on competence and quality. I think the first requirement should be that they qualify as a human being. That would be a great start. Stop Harvard / Yale good old boys in power system. Its literally killing America. But hey, they get to live like Kings, so I am sure they will not complain.

[loki]

Just like a Harvard trained man to donate money where its least needed, and will do the most harm to the world.

[dat]

Harvard needs money so it can produce more first rated lawyers to serve our country, liked Alberto Gonzales, Stepanie Powers, etc..

[Anastasia]

Gonzales and Powers don't even belong in the same sentence. The former having gone along with his bosses plans to torture prisoners, and deny them access to a lawyer. Plus repeatedly to investigators about his role in the firing of the US attorneys.

Powers on the other hand called Hillary Clinton "a monster". Something that at least half the country agrees with.
