Trump Makes Top Democrat Cry
Harvard University is now at the center of a national firestorm—facing bold action from the Trump administration after years of alleged anti-American conduct.
Trump Administration Cracks Down on Harvard Over Foreign Student Program
President Donald Trump is once again taking decisive action—this time against one of the most powerful and controversial Ivy League institutions in the country: Harvard University.
In a stunning move, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) revoked Harvard’s certification to enroll foreign students, effectively blocking thousands of international students from attending the school. The decision comes amid ongoing accusations that Harvard has turned a blind eye to antisemitism, allowed foreign influence from the Chinese Communist Party, and failed to protect free speech on campus.
Jamie Raskin Claims It’s “Retaliation”—But the White House Fires Back
Democrat Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD), a longtime Trump critic and Harvard Law School graduate, blasted the decision in a CNN interview. He accused the Trump administration of “exacting vengeance” after Harvard resisted what he called “federal overreach.”
“When Trump tried to influence their admissions, curriculum, and hiring—Harvard said no. Now he’s punishing them by targeting foreign students,” Raskin alleged.
But the White House made it clear: Harvard is finally facing the consequences of its own radical policies.
“Harvard has become a hotbed of anti-American, anti-Semitic, and pro-terrorist activism,” said White House spokesperson Abigail Jackson. “They’ve ignored warnings and endangered students. This is accountability.”
Why the Trump Administration Is Targeting Harvard Now
Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem stated that Harvard has failed to uphold basic standards of safety and national loyalty.
According to Noem, the school:
- Fostered violence and antisemitism on campus
- Collaborated with entities tied to the Chinese Communist Party
- Ignored growing threats to Jewish and American students
An alarming report from Harvard’s own police department revealed hate crimes on campus doubled in one year—jumping from 5 to 10 between 2022 and 2023.
The administration’s antisemitism task force concluded Harvard has “failed to confront pervasive racial discrimination and harassment.”
Thousands of Foreign Students Now Face Deportation
With the loss of Harvard’s Student and Exchange Visitor Program (SEVP) certification, over 7,000 international students must transfer or risk violating their visa status.
This bold action has sparked legal backlash. Harvard quickly filed a lawsuit claiming First Amendment violations, and a federal judge issued a temporary restraining order. A court hearing is scheduled for May 29.
Trump Responds: “Harvard Deserves to Lose Its Tax Breaks”
President Trump has made it clear: elitist universities can no longer expect special treatment.
On Truth Social earlier this month, Trump declared:
“We are going to be taking away Harvard’s Tax Exempt Status. It’s what they deserve!”
The administration has already cut nearly $3 billion in federal funding to Harvard in recent months.
Meanwhile, White House spokesperson Jackson warned:
“The American people elected Donald Trump—not unelected liberal judges—to defend our borders and enforce national security.”
A Turning Point for Higher Education?
This dramatic showdown is more than a fight between Harvard and President Trump—it’s a wake-up call for universities that have, in the eyes of millions of Americans, lost their way.
As the 2024 election nears, the Trump administration’s firm stance is drawing strong support from voters who believe patriotism, campus safety, and accountability must come before political correctness and global elitism.
