Trump repeats that the government of Harvard is revoked tax exemption status



Cnn

President Donald Trump says that Harvard University is freed from its tax -exempt status and double an exceptional threat in a broader chess game about freedom of speaking, political ideology and federal financing at the Ivy League School and throughout the American Academia.

“We will take Harvard's tax exemption status away. It is what you earn!” Trump posted the social truth on Friday morning.

Trump floated a trial balloon on April 15 because he had removed Harvard's tax -exempt status, and the Internal Revenue Service had plans to carry out the idea. CNN made the IRS and Harvard for a comment on Friday.

The President of Harvard said that the school “will not give up its independence or not give up its constitutional rights. Neither Harvard nor another private university can be taken over by the Federal Government.”

Harvard has developed as the best-known enemy of the Trump government after the joint Task Force of the White House announced a freezing of more than $ 2 billion in its federal research financing last month. The university sued the publication of the money, whereby a resolution was unlikely to the sooner summers until Monday.

The Trump administration has also threatened to revoke the ability of the university to accommodate international students if it does not differ a long list of demands, including: elimination of their diversity, equity and inclusion programs, the ban on masks on campus protests, changes in changes and approval changes, the changes in the approval, the notes of foreign students transferred, The more interdisciplinary by the impact -grade proceedings and the administrator, which are to be activated by “more cross -administered” and the obligation to activate the “” -Stoles “delicacies.

While the White House said that his goal was an action against anti-Semitism after protests in the US campus protested the war in Gaza, scientists and prominent Jewish organizations have taken care of his far-reaching attacks on Harvard.

In the past few days, Harvard has taken some symbolic steps towards the Ultimatum of the Trump government and renamed his office for equity, diversity, inclusion and belonging as a community and campus life and reports on resources for affinity group celebrations during the start.

The university also announced data with the Department of Homeland Security in response to its request for information on illegal activities and disciplinary acts of international students, although it did not describe what it gave.

And Harvard published two long internal reports this week, about how anti-Semitism and anti-Israel pre-borders are treated on the campus and another on anti-Muslim, anti-arab and anti-Palestinian prejudices. While the school officials do not quite agree with the position of the White House that anti -Semitism is a major problem at the university. This report shows that the pages still do not agree who is necessary and whether federal or school officers should monitor them.

Harvard's steps to contain anti -Semitism have been “positive,” a White House officer told CNN this week, but “What we see is not enough, and there will probably be additional financing that is shortened.”

This is a developing history and is updated.
