Senator Aric Nesbitt, a member of the Michigan State Senate, published several posts on his X (formerly Twitter) account in mid-September 2025. The posts included brief statements on political and educational issues.

On September 13, 2025, Nesbitt posted: "Never Surrender."

In another post later that day, dated September 14, 2025, he wrote: "Republicans aren’t the problem."

On September 14, 2025, Nesbitt commented on the University of Michigan’s administration and its handling of faculty conduct. He stated: "If @UMich leadership chooses to stand by professors that excuse terrorism and celebrate death they should lose all state and federal funding."

Nesbitt has been active in Michigan politics for several years as a Republican state senator. His comments regarding the University of Michigan reflect ongoing national debates about university governance and academic freedom. Disputes over faculty speech related to global conflicts have prompted legislative proposals in multiple states concerning higher education funding and oversight.
