Trump floats stripping Harvard of tax-exempt status after withholding $2.2B in federal funds
Briefly

President Trump proposed revoking Harvard University's tax-exempt status following its refusal to comply with demands aimed at reducing perceived antisemitism and altering admissions policies. His administration froze $2.2 billion in federal grants in response. Harvard President Alan Garber rejected the demands, emphasizing that no government should dictate a private university's academic freedoms. Trump's threats could have significant financial repercussions not just for Harvard but could set a precedent affecting other elite institutions like Columbia University, which has taken a more accommodating approach to the administration's requests.
"Perhaps Harvard should lose its Tax Exempt Status and be Taxed as a Political Entity if it keeps pushing political, ideological, and terrorist inspired/supporting 'Sickness?'"
"No government - regardless of which party is in power - should dictate what private universities can teach, whom they can admit and hire, and which areas of study and inquiry they can pursue."
