From Breitbart:

The administration had taken action after the university refused to comply with the administration’s demands regarding addressing antisemitism, and make changes to its hiring practices.

U.S. District Court Judge Allison Burroughs criticized the Trump administration for running “afoul of constitutional free speech protections and federal law,” but admitted that the Trump administration was “right to combat antisemitism and to use all lawful means to do so,” according to the Hill.

The decision from Burroughs restored $2.2 billion in federal grants to the university.

Burroughs admitted that “Harvard was wrong to tolerate hateful behavior for as long as it did,” but argues that the university is “taking steps to address it.” She also reportedly accused the President of using antisemitism as an excuse to cut funding, writing that there is “little connection between the research affected by the grant terminations and antisemitism.”

The Trump administration has been battling Harvard for months now. Breitbart notes that, in April, the university announced it would not comply with the President’s demands for change. Ever since then, the administration has set its sights on the school, with its Joint Task Force to Combat Anti-Semitism finding Harvard guilty of violating civil rights law in July.

This is a setback from the Trump administration, which was worked since January to bring schools across the nation into alignment with the President’s America-first agenda. Will Burroughs’ decision be overruled by a higher court later, or is the end of of President Trump’s fight against Harvard? Either way, let’s pray!
