U.S. President Donald Trump has announced that he will yank Harvard University‘s exemption status as tension between the esteemed university and the president has reached a boiling point. Trump’s pulling of the status brings an end to a 110-year-old rule that allowed schools to a tax break.
In a chilling post on his Truth Social media website, Trump stated, “We are going to be taking away Harvard’s Tax Exempt Status. It’s what they deserve!” The post comes after the university received several orders from the Trump administration and refused to implement them. Trump was previously branded the ‘dumbest president ever’ following a shocking 6-word geography comment.
The president’s orders also demanded that Harvard reform its admissions process for international students and screen for students who are “supportive of terrorism and anti-Semitism.” The demands also call on Harvard to report any international students to federal authorities should they break the University’s conduct policies.
