Trump vows to strip Harvard of its tax-exempt status
Harvard University could be stripped of its tax-exempt status.
President Donald Trump posted to his Truth Social feed early Friday: “We are going to be taking away Harvard’s Tax Exempt Status. It’s what they deserve!”
He did not elaborate. The post comes just days after Harvard was already under scrutiny by the IRS.
