A judge has issued a temporary restraining order blocking the Trump administration’s plan to strip Harvard University of its ability to enrol foreign students.

The ruling came after Harvard filed a lawsuit - the latest escalation of a dispute between the White House and one of America’s most prestigious institutions.

US District Judge Allison Burroughs issued a temporary restraining order in a short ruling issued on Friday.

The order pauses a move that the Department of Homeland Security made on Thursday to revoke Harvard’s access to the Student and Exchange Visitor Program - a government database that manages foreign students.

  • These GOP twats are definitely the product of the shitty education system we have in this country. The main reason why we have the schools we have and the student loans and grants where to get the brain power from Russia during the cold war and was what made America great to begin with. Doing this is literally going to turn us into a 3rd world country in 20 years time, but they are too stupid to know that (or probably don’t care either).
