Ridgewood NJ, Billionaire hedge fund manager Bill Ackman has distanced himself from the Democratic Party, citing his disapproval of what he perceives as “racist” diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives. Ackman, once a Bill Clinton Democrat, voiced his discontent, describing the party’s transformation into “woke martyrs” as something he no longer wishes to be associated with. In a recent CNBC interview, Ackman announced plans to establish a think tank dedicated to scrutinizing higher education in the U.S., prompted by his success in pressuring the resignation of Harvard president Claudine Gay.
