'Harvard is engaging in a systemic (sic) pattern of violating federal law,' McMahon wrote in her letter, which both the university and others who edited the letter noted was likely meant to say 'systematic.' The letter goes on to mock Harvard's educational standards, despite McMahon's own mistakes. She goes after the Ivy League for the teaching of 'remedial math' and calls attention to plagiarism scandals at the school. Other plaintiffs included attorneys general of Arizona, California, Delaware, the District of Columbia, Hawaii, Illinois, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, New Jersey, New Mexico, Nevada and Oregon.

Trump's Education Secretary Linda McMahon said: 'Since October 7, Jewish students have faced relentless violence, intimidation, and anti-Semitic harassment on their campuses - only to be ignored by those who are supposed to protect them.   McMahon and the Justice Department argued that taking back the money served the public interest, because taxpayer funds should be used for their intended purpose and the public health emergency from the pandemic had long passed.
