President Trump said Sunday he's considering stripping Harvard University of $3 billion in federal funding and redistributing it to trade schools.
The big picture: The latest threat against the Ivy League institution comes days after a federal judge temporarily blocked the Trump administration's efforts to ban foreign students from attending Harvard as part of a wider crackdown on colleges it considers to have liberal biases.
Details: "I am considering taking Three Billion Dollars of Grant Money away from a very antisemitic Harvard, and giving it to TRADE SCHOOLS all across our land," Trump said on Truth Social.
