Trump’s former immigration chief, Tom Homan, announced plans to ramp up enforcement in sanctuary cities like New York, signaling a hardline approach to immigration if Trump returns to power. Meanwhile, Trump’s libel lawsuit against the Wall Street Journal and Rupert Murdoch has been assigned to a Florida judge, adding another legal battle to his already crowded docket.

Editor’s Note: This story highlights two fronts in Trump’s ongoing political and legal fights: a promise to double down on aggressive immigration tactics, which could reignite tensions over sanctuary cities, and his latest legal maneuver against media outlets he accuses of defamation. For voters, it’s a preview of the combative style Trump would bring back to immigration enforcement—and for the courts, another high-profile case testing the limits of free speech and libel laws.

Harvard University is taking legal action against the Trump administration, arguing that its decision to slash $2.6 billion in funding was illegal. A ruling in Harvard's favor could overturn the funding freezes—which later turned into permanent cuts—as part of a broader clash between the administration and higher education institutions.

Editor’s Note: This isn't just about Harvard—it's a high-stakes fight over government funding for universities, which could set a precedent for how federal support for education is handled in future political battles. If Harvard wins, it might force a rethink of how administrations can (or can't) withhold money from schools they clash with.
