President Donald Trump's administration apparently has backed away from a proposal to eliminate funding for Head Start.

U.S. President Donald Trump's administration on Friday proposed a $163 billion cut to the federal budget that would sharply reduce spending on education, housing and medical research next year, while increasing outlays for defense and border security.

President Donald Trump said Thursday that he would nominate outgoing national security adviser Mike Waltz to be the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations. Waltz, a former congressman from Florida, has been on shaky ground with Trump since March after he inadvertently added a journalist to a private chat on the messaging app Signal with other top national security officials to discuss military strikes in Yemen.

White House national security adviser Mike Waltz is set to depart the administration, according to two people familiar with the matter on Thursday, marking the first major staff shakeup of President Donald Trump’s second term.

Harvard University's president hit back at President Donald Trump on Friday after Trump announced that he would revoke Harvard's tax-exempt status. Harvard has been in a drawn-out battle with the Trump administration over its refusal to comply with the president's demands to clamp down on student activism on campus and protests related to Israel's war against Hamas in Gaza.

President Trump took to his social media Friday, sharing plans to take away Harvard University's tax-exempt status, saying "it's what they deserve." This comes after the Trump administration also froze billions of dollars of Harvard's federal funding.

President Donald Trump says Harvard University will be stripped of its tax-exempt status — redoubling an extraordinary threat that the Ivy League school’s president is pushing back against.
