Harvard University Lawsuit Challenges Trump Funding Freeze, Calls $2.2B Block ‘Unlawful’ | Details

Harvard University lawsuit targets the Trump administration over a federal funding freeze exceeding $2.2 billion.

The prestigious institution has taken legal action in Massachusetts federal court, calling the move "unlawful" and an attack on academic independence.

Trump’s government alleges campus antisemitism and is pushing universities to meet ideological demands.

Harvard argues the funding block is politically motivated and violates the First Amendment.

Other elite universities are also under pressure, but none have taken as bold a stance.

This legal battle could redefine academic freedom and federal authority in the U.S. #HarvardLawsuit #TrumpVsHarvard #FundingFreeze #AcademicFreedom #USPolitics #CampusProtests #HarvardNews #TrumpAdministration #UniversityAutonomy #FederalFunding #StudentProtests #DiversityDebate #FirstAmendment #UnlawfulFreeze #HigherEducation #CollegesUnderFire #LegalBattle #EducationRights #MassachusettsCourt #AcademicIndependence Also Read Harvard Sues Donald Trump Administration Over Cut In US Federal Funding :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/harvard-sues-donald-trump-administration-over-cut-in-us-federal-funding-4130575.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Administration Freezes USD 2.2 Billion In Grants To Harvard University :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-administration-freezes-usd-2-2-billion-in-grants-to-harvard-university-4124075.html?ref=DMDesc Raghav Chadha Gets Harvard Call, Nidhi Razdan's Parody Account Chips In: 'Ache Se Mail Check Karle Bhai' :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/raghav-chadha-gets-harvard-call-nidhi-razdans-parody-account-chips-in-ache-se-mail-check-karle-b-4088399.html?ref=DMDesc

Trump Slaps EU With 15% Tariff Deal — “Better? No.” | Ursula Forced to Smile, U.S Refuses Any Relief [Video]

Trump Slaps EU With 15% Tariff Deal — “Better? No.” | Ursula Forced to Smile, U.S Refuses Any Relief

U.S President Trump refused to lower tariffs for the European Union, finalizing a major trade deal that locks in a flat 15% duty on most EU imports. When asked if he could offer a “better” rate, Trump snapped: “Better? Meaning lower? No.” European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen was forced to smile through the awkward moment, securing zero tariff relief despite a last-minute scramble to strike a deal at Trump’s Turnberry resort in Scotland. The EU, in return, agreed to $750 billion in U.S. energy purchases—but walked away with no concessions, no exemptions, and plenty of political pressure at home.

Trump Explodes Ursula Over Climate, Border, Tariff |EU Chief Seen 'Uncomfortable' in Brutal Showdown

U.S President Donald Trump publicly humiliated European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen during a high-stakes trade announcement in Scotland. From mocking wind power — “Windmills are a scam!” — to refusing any EU tariff relief, Trump dominated the press conference, calling out Ursula for “not taking notes” and blasting the EU’s climate and immigration failures. Despite the EU’s hopes for a softer deal, Trump slammed them with a 15% tariff, compared their policies to “a con job,” and left Ursula visibly stunned. With no concessions secured, the EU leader stood by awkwardly as Trump delivered blow after blow in front of a global audience. #Trump #UrsulaVonDerLeyen #EUTradeDeal #TrumpVsEU #WindmillsAreAScam #TrumpSpeech #Turnberry #USPolitics #EuropeanUnion #BreakingNews #ImmigrationCrisis #ClimateDebate #TrumpNews Also Read Harvard Not To Receive New Grants Until It Meets White House Demands: Trump Administration :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/harvard-to-not-receive-new-grants-until-it-meets-white-house-demands-trump-administration-4144481.html?ref=DMDesc White House Slammed For 'Dehumanising' Deportation Video Set To Pop Anthem: 'Na Na Na Na, Na Na Na Na' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/white-house-slammed-for-dehumanising-deportation-video-set-to-pop-anthem-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-n-4116107.html?ref=DMDesc Historic Southern Magnolia Tree to Be Removed from the White House Grounds Over Safety Concerns :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/historic-tree-removal-white-house-safety-concerns-011-4109883.html?ref=DMDesc

‘No Weapons For Ukraine’ Leavitt SLAMS Media For Spreading Fake News On Ukraine Aid | White House [Video]

‘No Weapons For Ukraine’ Leavitt SLAMS Media For Spreading Fake News On Ukraine Aid | White House

In a fiery press briefing, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt shut down claims about a shift in U.S. weapons supply to Ukraine, calling it “fake news.” Leavitt clarified that a recent Pentagon assessment was a routine global audit of U.S. military aid, not a pullback. “This was standard policy — not specific to Ukraine,” she said. Leavitt then turned to the Middle East, stating the Trump administration’s top priority is ending the Gaza war and securing the release of hostages. She confirmed that Israel had approved a ceasefire deal, which has now been sent to Hamas for approval. The press secretary expressed hope that Hamas would agree to the proposal, indicating that the U.S. is pressing for diplomatic resolution in the region. The dual clarification on Ukraine and Gaza reveals the administration’s efforts to quell disinformation and manage multiple crises on the global stage. #WhiteHouseBriefing #KarolineLeavitt #UkraineAid #FakeNewsAlert #GazaWar #BidenMiddleEastPlan #HostageCrisis #IsraelHamasCeasefire #PentagonReview #WeaponAidTruth #USForeignPolicy #BreakingNews #GlobalAid #GazaHostages #RoutineAudit #PressConference #MiddleEastConflict #HamasCeasefire #LeavittFightsBack #UkraineSupport Also Read Harvard Not To Receive New Grants Until It Meets White House Demands: Trump Administration :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/harvard-to-not-receive-new-grants-until-it-meets-white-house-demands-trump-administration-4144481.html?ref=DMDesc White House Slammed For 'Dehumanising' Deportation Video Set To Pop Anthem: 'Na Na Na Na, Na Na Na Na' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/white-house-slammed-for-dehumanising-deportation-video-set-to-pop-anthem-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-n-4116107.html?ref=DMDesc Historic Southern Magnolia Tree to Be Removed from the White House Grounds Over Safety Concerns :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/historic-tree-removal-white-house-safety-concerns-011-4109883.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~ED.194~

Trump SLAMS Canada After Palestine Move, Threatens To Block US-Canada Trade Deal Over Statehood

In a dramatic twist that could shake North American diplomacy, U.S. President Donald Trump has launched a fiery warning at Canada following its unexpected endorsement of Palestinian statehood. Trump took to Truth Social to express his outrage, stating, “That will make it very hard for us to make a Trade Deal with them. Oh’ Canada!!!” The statement comes amid ongoing discussions about trade relations between the two nations. Canada’s stance on Palestine appears to have infuriated Trump, who sees this as a betrayal of U.S. interests and a roadblock to future trade negotiations. The move has sparked intense reactions across the political spectrum, with analysts now speculating about a potential freeze in economic ties. Trump's outburst raises concerns of diplomatic fallout and shifts the spotlight to Canada's role in the Middle East peace debate. Could this signal a bigger rift between traditional allies?

BREAKING: Trump UNVEILS $350B South Korea Deal, FORCES 15% Tariff | Trump Claims Victory

In a bombshell announcement, U.S. President Donald Trump has declared a “Full and Complete Trade Deal” with South Korea — worth a staggering $350 billion in American-controlled investments. Trump, who claims the deals were “selected by myself, as President,” also revealed a $100 billion LNG energy commitment from Seoul and exclusive, tariff-free access for U.S. products in Korean markets. In return, South Korea’s exports to the U.S. will face a stiff 15% tariff. Trump described the agreement as a symbol of America’s dominance, likening it to the collection of “imperial tribute.” The deal includes upcoming additional investments, to be finalized when President Lee Jae Myung visits Washington. With dramatic language and economic muscle-flexing, Trump painted the deal as a massive American win — and a clear message to rival economies, particularly India and China. #Trump #SouthKoreaDeal #TradeWar #TariffNews #TrumpNews #GlobalTrade #USPolitics #LNGDeal #ImperialTribute #USExports #TradeShock #TariffBattle #AsiaNews #TrumpSpeech #TrumpAnnouncement #BilateralDeal #USKorea #BreakingNews #EnergyPolitics #AmericaFirst ~HT.318~ED.346~
