Trump decries Harvard as ‘antisemitic, far left’ amid fight over funding freeze
US President Donald Trump bashes Harvard as an “Anti-Semitic, Far Left Institution,” as the prestigious university battles his administration’s funding freeze in court.
“The place is a Liberal mess,” Trump writes on his Truth Social platform, also complaining that it has admitted students “from all over the World that want to rip our Country apart.”
Harvard is suing the Trump administration over its decision to halt more than $2 billion in funding to the university ostensibly over pro-Palestinian, anti-Israel campus protests over Israel’s war against the Hamas terror group in Gaza, sparked by the deadly October 7, 2023, terror onslaught.
