On March 14, the Department of Justice (DOJ) announced Larry Giberson ’23 was arrested in relation to the Capitol riot on Jan. 6, 2021. Giberson, a politics major from Manahawkin, N.J., was charged with civil disorder, a felony, and related misdemeanor offenses, according to a DOJ report.
According to the DOJ, images and video from Jan. 6 show Giberson and a group of rioters coordinating a “‘heave-ho’ pushing effort” in an attempt to weave their way into the Capitol through the Lower West Terrace “tunnel” entrance. At the tunnel, one Capitol police officer was dragged into the crowd. The DOJ states Giberson started chanting “Drag them out!” and cheered as weapons and pepper spray were used on Capitol police officers in the tunnel.

Excerpt: A crowd of about 20 people assembled at Bobst Hall on Princeton University’s campus, as they do every Tuesday morning, to hear from Robert P. George, the founder of the James Madison Program in American Ideals and Institutions.
George was there on a mission to combat the indoctrination of American youth with progressive values. As he sees it, illiberalism had spread rapidly in recent years, culminating in the campus culture wars that roiled quads from Cambridge, Massachusetts, to Los Angeles last year amid protests over the war in Gaza and the rollback of diversity, equity and inclusion programs.

“Princeton Doubles Down on DEI Amid Nationwide Attacks,” the Princeton Alumni Weekly reported recently – and a few weeks later, the Trump Administration launched at warp speed a profusion of legal and rhetorical attacks on universities and their DEI programs for alleged sins against freedom of speech and for “pervasive and repugnant race-based preferences and other forms of racial discrimination.” The Administration may make major cuts of outlays to universities, and Vice President J.D. Vance and others have spoken of taxing income on university endowments.
