Justice Department Sues Harvard Over Alleged Antisemitism, Seeking Billions in Reparations
The Justice Department has filed a lawsuit against Harvard University, accusing it of ignoring antisemitism on campus and violating federal civil rights laws. The lawsuit seeks to freeze current grants, recover billions in past taxpayer money, and force changes like calling police on disruptive protesters and appointing a government-approved monitor. This move escalates a long-standing conflict between the Trump administration and Harvard, which has already faced funding cuts and contract terminations. Harvard has pushed back through its own lawsuits, and a federal judge previously reversed some funding cuts, calling the antisemitism claims a cover for other motives. The clash began soon after Trump took office, triggered by complaints from Jewish and Israeli students amid pro-Palestinian protests. The stakes are high for Harvards federal funding and campus policies, as both sides prepare for a court showdown.
