In a striking rebuke of federal overreach, a federal judge in Boston announced minutes ago that she would issue an order blocking the Trump administration’s latest attempt to prevent Harvard University from enrolling international students.
I don't know what their reasoning was. It was a 3 judge panel. It makes my head hurt trying to understand all this. trump was ready to defy the lower court. I read this is Reuters.
🙌🏾 that’s great! But I have to be honest, if I was an international student, I would not want to come here for school considering how this administration has been treating non-white counterparts. I would literally choose anywhere else in the world to go to school. My cousin was supposed to come here from Trinidad do her masters and she’s not coming anymore.
Maga morons are uneducated, misinformed and uninformed, yet stand full chested, 10 toes down arguing with you. Then scream you're crying and how they love lib tears. They're simply showing how uneducated they are. Or misinformed. Or uninformed. Guy last night had no clue that Linda McMahon talked about A1 instead of AI.
I agree. It's a terrifying time for any non-white person in radical-right America (immigrant or not). I am advising people not to come into our country right now, too. It's not safe. BUT this is a WIN for higher education, so I celebrate Harvard's courage and the judge's decision. I hate what Chump is doing to our country, and I'm so sorry for your cousin, but I do agree she shouldn't come here right now. It's too scary.
You’re so right, it’s not safe at all. But totally a win for higher education and I’m so grateful they’re pushing forward and standing up to him and this regime. I’m hoping she’ll be able to come here one day. Her boyfriend is actually from Maryland but lives in Trinidad with her so 🤞🏾 one day we’ll look back at this scary time as a piece of history and not our new normal. But for now, the fight continues
I know my family is just too scared for something to happen to her so she’ll probably go to Canada instead because we also have family there. And it sucks because that’s tuition that the US is losing also
My daughter graduated from the University of Alberta with a degree in science and nursing. Great experience for her. As a parent I was very impressed with the campus, the level of care and class choice.
I think it’s more important that current students are allowed to stay and finish their programs. I wouldn’t come here from another country for any reason right now.
I am sorry for the worry that this causes international students. They should have every right to apply and come, if accepted. We welcome their addition to the culture and outlook of the university and the city.
The Trump administration questions "the value of foreign influence on American higher education." They're completely missing the point! Educating foreign students is our country's opportunity to influence the lives of students. Those who return to their countries of origin will bring new ideas and perspectives to others in a form of "soft diplomacy."
Ann,unfortunately Trump does not have the mental capacity to understand that.Remember he lies 92% of the time,was a D student @ Penn.Has had 6 bankruptcies,15 business failures.he is a total loser with a big mouth and no morals.
This brought tears of relief to me. And, it is sad that this has to be an issue of course. This all may make us stronger (in the end). If we make it to the end (of trump regime).
YES! The energy shift when good news spreads quickly is exactly the boost we need!! 🙌🏻🫶🏻👏🏻

Awwww poor little TACO!!! 🌮 GREAT NEWS!
The Taco will crumble!
Chicken TACO
Great news. The Tariffs are illegal and now this this is great news.
Federal Appeals Court reinstated those tariffs. It's like watching volleyball.
Oh my God, did they get paid?
In Reuters. My own misspelling drives me bonkers.

Can they ever follow through when they have a decision?
No. I heard tonight trump has changed his mind on the tariffs he's imposed over 50 times. lol He's an asshole.
Well, they said yesterday that his tariffs were illegal and they stopped them. Now today they’re back on. How much did they get paid?
🙌🏾 that’s great! But I have to be honest, if I was an international student, I would not want to come here for school considering how this administration has been treating non-white counterparts. I would literally choose anywhere else in the world to go to school. My cousin was supposed to come here from Trinidad do her masters and she’s not coming anymore.
A win is a win though! We need to take any positivity we can get these days ✊🏾
Donald Trump is ruining this country in ways not even imagined
and the magamorons who know nothing about politics are so excited.

That’s really sad to hear. I’m sure there are many others like you who feel the same.
I know my family is just too scared for something to happen to her so she’ll probably go to Canada instead because we also have family there. And it sucks because that’s tuition that the US is losing also
Canada is great for higher education. She'll get a fabulous education and won't have to stress about her safety.
My daughter graduated from the University of Alberta with a degree in science and nursing. Great experience for her. As a parent I was very impressed with the campus, the level of care and class choice.

This is a huge black eye on America’s soul😵💫😞😪😭💔‼️
Yes!! Standing ovation for Harvard!! Yes!!
The nod to Legally Blonde was priceless 😂 But seriously, thanks for bringing us alllll the breaking news.
My thought exactly! Legally Blonde ;-)
DT is such a baby! stop and work on the economy for chrissakes!
Melanie, my opinion, better for all of us if Donald Trump leaves the economy alone,
The Felon in Chief is not a baby, but a monster who wants to be dictator and who emulates Hitler in many ways.

It seems we are finally getting some major push back happening!
Thanks again, Aaron, for keeping us up to date!
Another loss for Trump = another win for us.
I wonder how those other schools that bent the knee are feeling now? Go Harvard!
Yay! Way to go Harvard you inspire America!🇺🇸 🇺🇸
Stand with Harvard
What about MIT capitulating on its DEI program?
They should've stood beside Harvard. 😡
Didn’t MIT learn anything from Columbia, the law firms that resisted and the Judicial System (not SCOTUS)?
Totally disappointed. MIT is as prestigious as Harvard and its lawyers would have conquered in court.
At least now people know how Red or chicken the admin is.
Disgusting,why,they should have stood with Harvard.
This brought tears of relief to me. And, it is sad that this has to be an issue of course. This all may make us stronger (in the end). If we make it to the end (of trump regime).
Good, I'm so glad Harvard won!
