Harvard University is suing the Trump administration, as the standoff between the prestigious institution and the federal government escalates.
The lawsuit seeks to halt the government's freezing of 2.2 billion dollars worth of federal funding to the university.
The Trump administration says Harvard is overrun with anti-semitism and leftist ideology and has also threatened to revoke its tax-exempt charity status.
Al Jazeera’s Shihab Rattansi reports from Washington, DC. He says the federal government's request for information on some of its students was the last straw for the university.
