    Harvard, specifically, can no longer enroll foreign students? But other universities can?

    This seems like an EO version of a bill of attainder. IANAL, but shouldn’t this be a job for the judiciary rather than the executive branch?

      Welcome to Trump’s America. We live in a dictatorship now.

    Hey, Chuck Schumer. Has he crossed the line to where you feel it’s necessary to do something yet?

      He gave a speech and or comment the other day where he said in regards to all of the bullshit power grabs are going on, paraphrasing here, that they better be careful because the shoe is going to be on the other foot one day. That the Republicans won’t be the majority forever and someday the Democrats will be and then they can take advantage of all these changes and rules. I heard that and I just fuck. First of all no it won’t. Second of all Chuck wouldn’t know what to do with it if it was. Third, just please shut up and die already you God damn dinosaur.

        I’ve despised him ever since he collaborated with the clumsy Republican smear campaign to destroy Al Franken’s career. Franken is 100x the man and senator than that weak, spineless, insipid Schumer will ever be.

    “Harvard had plenty of opportunity to do the right thing. It refused.”

    No. Harvard IS doing the right thing, and this fascist administration is punishing them for it.

    Fuck off, Noem.

        Dixiecrats

        Not certain that designation means what you think it means…

        But your point is taken. 🤷‍♂️

          They switched to Republican after they lost the fight for Civil Rights.

          But it’s exactly the same group, they used to be called Dixiecrats, not a lot else you can call them except “racist southern filth”.

    Harvard says the administration’s move is unlawful.

    And most likely, it is.

    However, for a foreign student to enter the US currently to study (presumably for several years) does kind of feel like jumping onto a hovercraft crewed by eels.

    Why would an international student want come to the US when they could be deported or imprisoned any day? Or if they leave the country for a trip might not be allowed back in to finish their degree?

      Because thousands of them started their studies years ago, and want to finish the degree they paid a lot of money for. This also affects current students
