A row between Donald Trump and Harvard continues to escalate, and now MAGA supporters have become the face of a “boycotting” the university meme.
The U.S. General Services Administration sent a letter ordering US federal agencies to review and potentially cancel 30 contracts (across nine agencies) with Harvard, estimated to be worth $100m, it has been claimed.

Speaking to Fox News, Leavitt said: “Electricians, plumbers — we need more of those in our country, and less LGBTQ graduate majors from Harvard University.”
The White House froze billions in federal funds and grants to the university last month, and on Friday (May 23) a judge blocked the Trump administration from barring the University from enrolling foreign students.
Leavitt was mocked with one user saying, “Just wait till she finds out that electricians and plumbers can be GULP….GAY TOO!!!!!”
