What started as some Trump claim that University of California colleges were antisemitic turned into a billion-dollar shakedown, but UC just won this fight (for now) as a judge ordered that $500 million in research grants be reinstated. The second Trump term has been marked by his claims that universities are somehow antisemitic, this despite Trump's fondness for openly antisemitic figures like Nick Fuentes, Andrew Tate, and Kanye West.
U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) announced on Tuesday that, effective immediately, when reviewing applications, the agency will consider "any involvement in anti-American or terrorist organizations, as well as the use of discretion in adjudication of certain benefit requests where evidence of antisemitic activity is present." The applicant "bears the burden of proof to demonstrate that a favorable exercise of discretion is warranted," the announcement states.
