    Harvard School of Public Health Begins Layoffs As Trump Slashes
    Funding

    The Harvard School of Public Health is laying off employees, shrinking
    its campus footprint, and making targeted cuts to departmental budgets
    in response to the Trump administration's escalating attacks on
    Harvard -- including pulling more than $2 billion in federal funding
    and threatening the University's eligibility to enroll international
    students.

    Loss of revenue for Boston's businesses, etc.

    The Internal Revenue Service is planning to revoke
    the University's tax-exempt status, CNN reported Wednesday.

    A tax paperwork PIA, and this would require hiring accountants/etc.,
    but I doubt if much, if any, tax revenue would be generated.

    Needless to say, there are a number federal judges who graduated from Harvard....including some 5 at SCOTUS.

    The T-Borg apparently wants to piss off SCOTUS.
