“The Trump administration has grown so furious with Harvard University after a week of escalating dispute between the two sides that it is planning to pull an additional $1 billion of the school’s funding for health research,“ the Wall Street Journal reports.
“Trump administration officials thought the long list of demands they sent Harvard last Friday was a confidential starting point for negotiations.”
“They were surprised on Monday when Harvard released the letter to the public. Before Monday, the administration was planning to treat Harvard more leniently than Columbia University, but now officials want to apply even more pressure to the nation’s most prominent university.”
