Trump wants $1 billion from Harvard for Anti-Semitism

"One Billion Dollars": Trump Demands Massive Payout From Harvard

President Donald Trump is sharply escalating his legal war with Harvard University

Late Monday night, he increased his demand for damages to a staggering $1 billion. This follows months of failed negotiations over what he calls the school's "strongly antisemitic" culture.

The president lashed out at a recent New York Times report claiming he had dropped his demands for a cash settlement. Trump called the story "completely wrong" and accused the newspaper of being a "fake news" outlet. He suggested that Harvard’s behavior should be treated as a criminal matter rather than a civil one.

"Harvard has been, for a long time, behaving very badly!" Trump wrote on Truth Social. He claimed that the university's "heinous illegalities" warrant a payment much higher than the previous $500 million estimate.

The administration maintains that the school failed to protect Jewish students following the October 7, 2023, attacks.

At the same time, America is becoming synonymous with dangerous randomness. The constitutional system is in collapse. The legislative branch, made up of both Democrats and Republicans, is missing in action. The Supreme Court debates the legal equivalent of how many angels can fit on the head of a pin, while the legal order that has held the country together for 250 years sputters toward an ignominious end. Nobody knows what America is anymore — not Americans, not their enemies, not their friends.
