Harvard Is Said to Be Open to Spending Up to $500 Million to Resolve Trump Dispute

NYT had earlier reported that $500 million figure.

Harvard’s student paper says President Garber “claimed the figure was apparently leaked to the press by White House officials, according to the three faculty familiar.”

Here’s the Nyt story in question:

www.nytimes.com/2025/07/28/u...

Harvard “is seriously considering resolving its dispute with the White House through the courts rather than a negotiated settlement.”

“We have no interest in running a lower-margin business, particularly due to tariffs,” Richard Westenberger, the chief financial officer of Carter’s, a children’s apparel maker, said on a call with analysts on July 25. “And if this is something that’s going to be a permanent increase to our cost structure, we have to find a way to cover it.”

This is CEO-speak for, "Lotsa luck getting our shareholders or foreign countries to pay your tariffs, Mr. President"

Leaders of American Economic Association call on elected officials "to respect and preserve" the independence of the Bureau of Labor Statistics after Trump fires the BLS commissioner.

In addition to his $1 million base salary, the former Republican congressman received a $600,000 bonus, $44.1 million in stock awards and $1.2 million in additional stock compensation for running the parent company of President Donald Trump’s Truth Social platform. Nunes received 25% of that $44.1 million stock award in December 2024. The remaining stock will vest quarterly in nine payments, contingent on Nunes remaining the company’s CEO. Nunes’ 2024 compensation marks a 6,200% increase from the $750,000 he earned in 2023, before the company went public.
