The Ministry of Education sends a letter to Harvard, and it's riddled with spelling mistakes.

Classroom Without Grammar - The head of the U.S. Department of Education sent a letter to Harvard University, and it has more errors than the textbooks here.

The letter, signed by Linda McMahon, was sent amid the dispute between the Donald Trump administration and the prestigious university, which recently had its government support cut off.

Trump's new Department of Education is all in

In this three-page letter, McMahon claimed that the university had “failed to fulfill its legal obligations, its ethical and fiduciary duties, its responsibilities of transparency, and any semblance of academic rigor,” hence the budget cuts the federal government had imposed.

Beyond the controversial content and scope of the letter, what has drawn attention is the multitude of spelling errors it contains, confirming that Trump made a good choice about who would lead his country's Department of Education.

The countless errors were pointed out by social media users, who, in a social effort, decided to correct the letter to highlight the horrific nature of the document.

The errors include words in capital letters that should be lowercase, incomplete sentences, inconsistent use of verb tenses, and confusion over terms such as 'systemic', which should be replaced by ' systematic ', among many others.

As you can see, the grammar, punctuation and spelling are horrific.

It's worth mentioning that the person who made the correction is a Harvard student, who is also pursuing a PhD in Economics at the equally prestigious Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

So far, neither McMahon, nor the Department of Education, nor Trump himself have come forward to clarify these errors, but it has been confirmed that the funding has already been cut.

And just to be up to date: an American bought an air conditioner in Mexico and upon returning to his country, he was charged 145% tariffs.
