Trump Freezes $2bn Harvard Funding After University Defies White House Antisemitism Demands

President Trump has frozen over $2.2 billion in federal funding to Harvard University after it rejected White House demands targeting antisemitism on campus.

The university refused sweeping changes that included federal oversight of governance, hiring, and admissions.

Harvard's president argued the demands violated its independence and constitutional rights.

The Biden-era push to enforce federal control through funding threatens academic autonomy.

Harvard is the first to resist—while others like Columbia have already complied under pressure.

Lawsuits are mounting as campus arrests intensify over pro-Palestinian protests nationwide.
