Trump Announces What He Might Do With $3 Billion He Threatens To Take Away ‘From A Very Antisemitic’ Harvard

President Donald Trump said he was considering redirecting $3 billion of Harvard grant money toward U.S. trade schools on Monday.

Trump said in his Truth Social post that this move would be “a great investment” for the country and that it was “so badly needed!!!”

This followed a months-long conflict between the university and the Trump administration, starting with an April letter from the administration informing Harvard that it would only continue its investment in the school if it were to “justify federal investments” by “upholding federal civil rights laws” and fostering “the kind of environment that produces intellectual creativity and scholarly rigor.”

Some of the demands needed to be met were merit-based hiring and admissions, reforming programs with “records” of antisemitism and other biases, transparency, and the continuation of DEI.

Harvard responded to the letter, saying it was “not prepared to agree to demands that go beyond the lawful authority of this or any administration.”

This refusal to comply resulted in Trump pulling over $2 billion of federal funding from the university, according to the Daily Caller.

The Daily Caller reported that the Department of Homeland Security revoked Harvard’s ability to admit and maintain foreign students on Thursday; however, a federal judge blocked that action almost immediately. But the termination of the federal grant still remains, leading Trump to consider where else to put that money.

In another Monday post, Trump said that he was still waiting for a list of foreign students from Harvard so he could determine “how many radicalized lunatics, troublemakers all, should not be let back into our Country.”

Trump said Harvard might have a “good reason” for its delay in presenting the list and said that Harvard was a good judge for itself.
