TRUMP’S Bold BAN on Harvard Foreign Students Shocks Markets
— President Trump has blocked Harvard from accepting foreign students for the 2025-2026 school year. He accused the university of resisting needed oversight and having questionable links to China’s Communist Party. Secretary Kristi Noem backed the move, saying letting in international students is a “privilege, not a right,” especially when schools are accused of fueling violence or antisemitism.
Now, current international students at Harvard have to transfer or risk losing their legal status in America. The university says it will fight back in court and hopes to get a judge to pause the ban because there isn’t much time left before it takes effect.
At the same time, President Trump’s new tariffs — including a 25% tax on imported cars — have rattled Wall Street and global markets. Some experts warn about possible inflation and recession next year, but Trump adviser Stephen Miran says fears are overblown even as stocks fall and businesses worry about rising costs.
Despite criticism from economists and sliding stock prices around the world, President Trump stands his ground on trade policy. He isn’t worried about car prices going up for Americans, arguing these tough steps will help U.S.-made vehicles sell better than ever before.
