Congress determines how the money is spent. DJT just can’t arbitrarily make these decisions just because a person or institution disagrees with him!! He doesn’t solely hold the power of the purse. CONGRESS DO YOUR JOBS!!

* Trump does not care about the legal system. Trump’s religious right political Base does not care what Trump does. Trump’s administration and Trump’s “political Base” does not care what “YOU” democrats think. “You” democrats can go pound sand, Trump doesn’t Care. “You” need more than Talk.

Harvard files lawsuit. Judge sides with Harvard, tells them to unfreeze funds. They appeal and win the right to withhold funds on appeal. Harvard wins appeals until it gets to SCOTUS. SCOTUS finds some obsure rule giving trump his way. The end.

Because, unlike many of the white-shoe lawyers it trained, Harvard is smart enough to know it had no choice but to resist Trump's extortion. It chose to forego funding for a presidential term (or two) rather than sacrifice its academic integrity and reputation forever...

THE BRAND USA IS DESTROYED forever in record time. Congratulations! Not a world leader any more. Just cheap. Trying to become manufactor China 10 y ago. Now even trying to destroy Harvard and thereby #1 uni country. NOT DISRUPTION. IT IS DEMOLITION. HOW STUPID A BUSINESS LEADER! NEVER SEEN BEFORE.

The media and press have Donald Trump's back. They've stood behind him starting with The Apprentice, 2016, 2020, & 2024. There's nothing new going on here, they've always supported him! 🧵thread bsky.app/profile/edhi...
