BOSTON — A federal judge in Boston on Wednesday ordered the reversal of cuts of more than $2.6 billion in federal funding for Harvard University, delivering a significant victory to the Ivy League school in its battle with the Trump administration. U.S. District Judge Allison Burroughs ruled the cuts amounted to illegal retaliation for Harvard’s rejection of White House demands for changes to its governance and policies.The government had tied the freezes at Harvard to delays in dealing with antisemitism on its campus, but the judge said the federally funded research had little connection to antisemitism. “A review of the…
[JAKARTA] Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto flew overnight to China to join dozens of world leaders at Xi Jinping’s military parade, signalling confidence he’s defused the country’s worst protest violence in years and pivoting to global diplomacy.His departure late Tuesday (Sep 2) from Jakarta comes days after protesters rampaged across several cities, leaving at least 10 dead, and looting some lawmakers’ homes, the most serious political test of his 10-month presidency. The president “monitored the entire situation and received reports from all relevant levels that public life has returned to normal” in Indonesia, State Secretary Prasetyo Hadi said in a press briefing…
Usually I consider a Windows laptop a deal if I can find one with 16GB of RAM — the lowest I would recommend at this point — for around the $500 mark. But today you can get one with a full 32GB, practically bougie, for under $300. Newegg’s official eBay store has an HP EliteBook for just $260.99 right now, so long as you’re okay with a refurbished unit. The EliteBook 845 G8 isn’t all that, well, elite, in my opinion. Notably its 256GB storage is positively miserly at this point, and while the 6-core AMD Ryzen Pro 5650U CPU…

Hosted by an impassioned Colman Domingo in a bright green custom Valentino jacket, the event took place at the Arsenale during the Venice Film Festival. More low key and intimate than it’s Cannes Film Festival counterpart, the event still attracted its share of celebrities including Jude Law, in Venice to promote “The Wizard of the Kremlin,” in which he stars as Putin.The evening started with champagne, canapés, Italian spritz…

Washington — A federal judge ruled Wednesday that the Trump administration violated Harvard University’s First Amendment rights and federal law when it froze nearly $2 billion in federal grants because of the Ivy League school’s handling of antisemitism on campus.In a victory for Harvard, U.S. District Judge Allison Burroughs blocked Trump administration officials from implementing or instituting orders freezing the grant funding to Harvard and letters terminating research grants awarded by a slew of federal agencies.Burroughs wrote in her 84-page decision that Harvard has been “plagued” by antisemitism in recent years and should have done more to deal with the…
[BEIJING] Chinese President Xi Jinping used a mix of bonhomie and economic allure this week to send US President Donald Trump a clear message: Beijing has too much global clout to be dictated by the US.Cameras captured the Chinese leader in a rare, unscripted huddle on Monday (Sep 1) with Vladimir Putin and Narendra Modi, his most powerful partners in resisting America on the world stage, at a summit in the Chinese port city of Tianjin. At one point, Xi held the hand of his Indian counterpart, as the three men laughed casually, a striking scene given just months earlier,…
