Trump, our most ignorant of Presidents, keeps finding new ways to disgrace himself and his administration.


The Trump administration on Thursday halted Harvard University’s ability to enroll international students, a major escalation in the administration’s efforts to pressure the college to fall in line with the president’s agenda.

The administration notified Harvard about the decision after a back-and-forth in recent days over the legality of a sprawling records request as part of the Department of Homeland Security’s investigation, according to three people with knowledge of the negotiations.

“I am writing to inform you that effective immediately, Harvard University’s Student and Exchange Visitor Program certification is revoked,” according to a letter sent to the university by Kristi Noem, the homeland security secretary. A copy of the letter was obtained by The New York Times.

Spokesmen for the Department of Homeland Security and Harvard did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

By antisemitism - do you mean criticism of Israel? That's not allowed?

And I'm never okay w/ violence. But you know that this has gone way beyond that for Trump.

If MAGA's cared about violence, they would have criticized Trump's J6 pardons.

That's within the student body, which Harvard has acknowledged. It is not the institution.

Good to see that you guys care about harassment of people with different religious beliefs now.
 
Where was all of the talk of religious harassment when Trump said he saw thousands of Muslims celebrating on the rooftops after 9/11?

Anyone wanna guess how much hostility and harassment that created for the Muslim community?

Hypocrisy. So much friggin' hypocrisy.

Have you ever been to Harvard? I know you never been to a class at Harvard, but have you ever walked around at Harvard. The place is absolutely full of Jews.

I say that as a Jew who taught a seminar at Harvard.
