 "'Everyone knows Harvard has lost its way': Trump's latest potshot amid fund squeeze")
A day after he said Harvard University “should lose its tax exempt status” and be taxed as a political entity, President Donald Trump on Wednesday went on yet another rant about the elite institution, claiming that “everyone knows Harvard has lost its way.”
In a lengthy post on Truth Social, Trump slammed the university’s hiring of former New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio and former Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot, whom he labeled as “the worst and the most incompetent.”
“Everyone knows that Harvard has “lost its way.” They hired, from New York (Bill D) and Chicago (Lori L), at ridiculously high salaries/fees, two of the WORST and MOST INCOMPETENT mayors in the history of our Country, to “teach” municipal management and government. These two Radical Left fools left behind two cities that will take years to recover from their incompetence and evil. Harvard has been hiring almost all woke, Radical Left, idiots and “birdbrains” who are only capable of teaching FAILURE to students and so-called “future leaders,” Trump wrote.
He also took aim at Harvard’s former president, Claudine Gay, without naming her, referencing plagiarism allegations and congressional scrutiny.
“Look just to the recent past at their plagiarizing President, who so greatly embarrassed Harvard before the United States States Congress. When it got so bad that they just couldn’t take it anymore, they moved this grossly inept woman into another position, teaching, rather than firing her ON THE SPOT. Since then much else has been found out about her, but she remains in place,” he added.
In a sweeping condemnation, Trump said Harvard “can no longer be considered even a decent place of learning” and should be removed from “any list of the World’s Great Universities or Colleges.”

Harvard is a JOKE, teaches Hate and Stupidity, and should no longer receive Federal Funds. Thank you for your attention to this matter!” he added.
The White House has demanded sweeping changes to Harvard’s hiring, admissions, and teaching practices, claiming they are needed to combat antisemitism. President Trump has threatened to pull federal research funds and even revoke the university’s tax-exempt status, accusing it of promoting “terrorist-inspired sickness.”
Harvard rejected the demands on Monday, calling them an attempt to “control” the academic community and vowing to protect its independence and free speech. The university warned that many of the proposed reforms, including faculty audits, student monitoring, and government-approved oversight, crossed constitutional lines.
Following Harvard’s refusal, the US Department of Education froze $2.2 billion in grants and $60 million in contracts.
It condemned the university’s response as reflective of a “troubling entitlement mindset,” citing continued campus unrest and antisemitic harassment as “unacceptable.”
