“Trump’s threats to American institutions of higher education are both McCarthyite and credible, with the regime having already pulled $400 million in funding for Columbia University and threatening similar action against other colleges and universities for allegedly failing to crack down on antisemitism on campus. Trump’s tactics and rhetoric echo similar attacks on U.S. colleges and universities during the darkest days of the Cold War, with many individual academics and institutions being smeared and investigated for being alleged havens for Soviet sympathizers or outright communists.” (03/11/25)
