In a shocking turn of events, 16 states have come out in support of former President Donald Trump in his court battle against Harvard University over a funding freeze for their antisemitism response program. The states, including Texas, Florida, and Alabama, have all voiced their support for Trump’s efforts to hold Harvard accountable for their alleged mishandling of funds.
“This is a clear case of Harvard trying to silence those who speak out against antisemitism,” said Governor Ron DeSantis of Florida. “We cannot stand by and allow this blatant discrimination to go unchecked.”
The controversy began when Harvard University froze funding for their antisemitism response program, citing budgetary concerns. However, Trump and his supporters believe that the move was politically motivated and aimed at stifling conservative voices on campus.
“We will not let Harvard get away with this injustice,” declared Trump in a statement. “We will fight tooth and nail to ensure that freedom of speech is protected on our college campuses.”
In a bizarre twist, Harvard has denied any wrongdoing and accused Trump of trying to distract from his own legal troubles. “This is just another desperate attempt by Trump to deflect attention from his own legal woes,” said Harvard spokesperson Emily Johnson. “We stand by our decision to freeze funding for the antisemitism response program.”
Despite Harvard’s protests, the 16 states backing Trump have vowed to continue their support until justice is served. “We will not rest until Harvard is held accountable for their actions,” declared Governor Greg Abbott of Texas. “We stand with Trump in this fight for freedom of speech and against antisemitism.”
As the court battle rages on, one thing is clear: this is a fight that is far from over. Stay tuned for more updates on this wild and wacky legal showdown between Trump and Harvard.
