Ben Meiselas: 本周法院和国会都很忙碌。MAGA共和党人试图通过一项预算案，剥夺联邦法院的藐视法庭权，这似乎是针对特朗普的。最高法院之前给予特朗普的绝对豁免权裁决现在成为了争议点，因为特朗普一直在利用他的职位为个人商业活动敛财。最高法院的裁决并不影响对特朗普的刑事指控，其他人也没有特朗普享有的豁免权。特朗普政府还试图阻止外国学生进入哈佛大学，并解散教育部，但都遭到了联邦法院的驳回。最高法院推翻了一项先例，允许特朗普解雇独立机构的负责人，但又禁止他触碰联邦储备系统。总的来说，特朗普政府正在摧毁美国，试图建立俄罗斯式的政府，预算案将财富从穷人转移到富人，并剥夺数百万人的医疗保健和营养援助。 Michael Popok: 联邦政府无权监督大学的活动，除非与恐怖活动有直接联系。即使观点令人不舒服，也应捍卫其表达的权利。特朗普滥用职权，利用政府部门报复反对者。大学通过收取外国学生高额学费来补贴其捐赠和学费。特朗普政府正在利用一小部分学生的行为来攻击整个哈佛大学。许多共和党律师都站出来支持哈佛大学和其他机构。哈佛聘请了著名的律师来应对特朗普政府的攻击。特朗普政府就像绑匪一样，不断提高赎金，试图让哈佛屈服。这个案件最终将上诉到最高法院。
