Trump Lawsuit Is Do-Over of Case Already Won, Harvard Says

"The Government now seeks a do-over and brings this case resting on the same unfounded allegations and seeking the same unconstitutional result: termination of Harvard's federal funding."

"Burroughs ruled in Harvard's favor in September, writing that the Trump administration had illegally frozen federal grants for the university and that Harvard was actively addressing antisemitism on campus."

"Harvard attorneys argued in the Monday memorandum that these efforts to address antisemitism on campus were completely ignored in the Trump administration's new complaint."

"Harvard University allowed its Jewish students to be targeted, harassed, and discriminated against for years."

Harvard University filed a motion asserting that the Trump administration's antisemitism lawsuit is a rehash of a case it previously won. The university's attorneys requested the case be transferred to Judge Allison Burroughs, who ruled in Harvard's favor in a similar case. They argued that the new complaint ignores Harvard's efforts to address antisemitism on campus. The White House responded, stating that Harvard allowed discrimination against Jewish students and emphasized President Trump's commitment to student safety.
