US President Donald Trump said on Monday that he is considering withdrawing $ 3 billion in Harvard funds and “giving them to technical schools throughout our country,” reiterating allegations that the US university is “very anti-Semitic.” “What a great investment it would be for the US, and so necessary!” Wrote the Republican in the Truth Social.
In another publication, Trump said he still expects Harvard’s foreign students to determine “how many radicalized lunatics, problem breeders, should not have allowed entry again” in the US. “Harvard is very slow to present these documents, and probably for good reasons!” He said, accusing the university to buy the “best judge (for them!).” “But don’t fear, the government will in the end win!”
On Friday, 23, a federal judge temporarily barred the Trump government’s attempt to prevent enrollment of new foreign students in Harvard. The university filed two lawsuits against republican measures. However, while Harvard seeks relief from courts, teachers and administrators are elaborating contingency plans and preparing for a prolonged war, given that the government has many tools available to press the university’s finances while judicial disputes drag on.
