CU Boulder cancels courses taught by conservative scholar John Eastman,

citing single-digit enrollment

New York Times reports Eastman told Pence the vice president had power to stop election certification

Citing low enrollment, the University of Colorado Boulder this week canceled the spring courses that were to have been taught by visiting conservative scholar John Eastman, who drew calls for his dismissal after speaking at the Trump rally that preceded the storming of the U.S. Capitol.

Since then, the New York Times has reported Eastman was in the Oval Office with President Donald Trump the day before the Capitol riot, arguing to Vice President Mike Pence that Pence had the power to block certification of President-elect Joe Biden’s Electoral College victory.

Eastman’s two spring semester classes were canceled Monday, said Andrew Sorensen, a CU Boulder spokesperson.

Two students were enrolled in one of Eastman’s courses and six had signed up for the other, according to the university. The College of Arts & Sciences typically requires 15 students for an undergraduate class, Sorensen said.

So his past finally came back to get him, he will probably land at some right wing university he should have his credentials stripped completely................... he also has Blood on his Hands...

I hope someone tells the GOP wackos this before complaining about unfairness or discrimination which they will.
