President Trump threatened to suspend all federal funds at educational institutions that allow “illegal protests” on Tuesday, and vowed to be masked and imprisoned.
The commander issued a warning as destructive anti-Israel and pro-Hamas demonstrations are shaking university campuses around the country.
“All federal funds will be suspended for universities, schools or universities that allow illegal protests,” Trump, 76. I wrote in an early truth social post.
“Agitators will be imprisoned or sent back to the country they came to forever. American students will be expelled or arrested forever in response to a crime.”
“There are no masks! Thank you for being aware of this issue,” he added.
The threat comes the day after his administration vowed to withdraw more than $50 million in a government contract from Columbia University due to alleged inaction by the Ivy League over the deadline for anti-Israel protests.
It comes after Trump signed an executive order in January, and instructed federal agencies to crack down on pro-Hama's graffiti and threats, including university campuses, and find ways to banish anti-Semitic activists who violate the law.
