Donald Trump against Ivy League

Harvard filed a lawsuit in April against the Trump administration, and his challenge triggered a legal confrontation between the most important university of the USA and the White house. Demand argues that Trump’s government has violated the constitutional rights of the house of studies by freezing billions of dollars in federal funds and endangering their academic independence.

Cultural battle

The truth is another: For Trump, there is a cultural battle that Maga has pending and consists in capturing the training centers.

For him, ideology ‘woke’ (diversity, equity and inclusion) was legitimized and enhanced in great universities. It is the real problem and places the Jewish issue but Is the Jewish issue or is the Israeli theme? Why should Judaism pay for Israel’s behavior? Incidentally: Israel is a theocracy or a democracy? Beyond this, Trump also believes that The university cloisters are full of their adversaries, and that denys him the recognition he deserves.

Anyway to Trump, who only conceives the world through the fight, should cause some repair the conflict: His previous re -election attempt failed at the hands of the Black Lives Matter movement. Is he sure to continue in his frenzy?

His threat is Ivy League: Brown, Columbia, Cornell, Dartmouth, Harvard, Pennsylvania, Princeton and Yale.

In the beginning, it was a sports conference of the NCAA (National Collegiate Athletic Association or National University Sports Association). The term extended beyond the sports context to refer to the 8 universities such as a group with connotations of academic excellence, selectivity in social admissions and elitism.

Harvard

The president of Harvard University, Alan Garberhe responded to the renewed threat of President Trump to revoke the school exemption status of the school, saying to the The Wall Street Journal that the measure would be “Highly illegal” y “Destructive for Harvard”.

Alan Michael Garber is a doctor, health economist and academic administrator, today Harvard’s interim president.

He replaced the political scientist Claudine Gayaccused of 47 different Plagiar of material in 8 of the total of 17 academic articles, and accused of anti -Semitic amid the student claims against the war in Gaza. Perhaps the underlying problem was that the number of students requesting admission to the University fell 17% During gay days.

Garber, son of Jewish parents, was rector of Harvard between 2011 and 2024, when John F. Manning He replaced him interim so that he could replace Gay.

Garber has a degree in Economics, has a master’s degree and a doctorate in philosophy in economics at Harvard; But at the same time he enrolled at Stanford University, where he received the title of Doctor of Medicine in 1983, and made the residence at the Brigham and Women’s hospital, affiliated with Harvard, in 1986.

Now he told the WSJ: “The message that this sends to the educational community would be very serious, since it suggests that political disagreements could be used as a basis to raise what could be an existential threat to many educational institutions”.

“We are going to remove Harvard the tax exemption. It’s what they deserve!”Trump wrote in a social publication on Friday.

Garber: “The tax exemption is granted to educational institutions so that they can successfully carry out their educational mission and, in the case of research universities, research. Obviously, this would be severely affected if we lost our tax exemption.”

Trump

The Tax Code prohibits the president from already senior officials to request, directly or indirectly, to the IRS to carry out an audit or other investigations, which constitutes a punishable crime with fine and prison. Processing such a case would require the intervention of federal prosecutors.

Trump is acting – again – from illegality.

Tax legislation also prohibits federal employees from disseminating internal information on IRS about specific taxpayers. Trump’s publication was not clear if he had real information about IRS investigation into Harvard.

It is not clear what argument could the administration against Harvard wield. One possibility is that your admission policies or your anti -Semitism approach violate fundamental public policies. That is the criterion established by the Supreme Court more than 40 years ago, when it ratified the IRS decision to revoke the tax exemption of the Bob Jones University due to racially discriminatory policies of the institution.

Harvard could challenge any revocation of their tax exemption status before court.

The leader of the Senate minority, Chuck Schumer.
