If they're invoking the Chinese Communist Party, then surely Kennedy will be close behind with the claim that Harvard is adding fluoride to children's ice-cream.

Only a few hours ago I posted that "saying something like "the United Nations is a good idea" would be taken as "supporting terrorism" by the Trump regime. Or, in the case of universities, having any foreign students". It seems they've decide to combine the two at once - "Harvard supports terrorism, therefore it must not be allowed foreign students".
