BOSTON – A federal judge in Boston on Thursday temporarily blocked US President Donald Trump from barring US entry of foreign nationals seeking to study or participate in exchange programs at Harvard University.
Under a two-page temporary restraining order granted to Harvard, US District Judge Allison Burroughs enjoined Trump’s proclamation from taking effect pending further litigation of the matter amid an escalating dispute between the Ivy League school and Republican president.
The judge ruled that Trump’s directive prohibiting foreign nationals from entering the United States to study at Harvard for the next six months would cause “immediate and irreparable injury” before the courts have a chance to review the case.
Burroughs last month had blocked Trump from implementing a separate order prohibiting Harvard from enrolling international students, who make up more than a quarter of its student body.
Harvard on Thursday amended its lawsuit to challenge the new directive, claiming Trump is violating Burroughs’ decision.
“The Proclamation denies thousands of Harvard’s students the right to come to this country to pursue their education and follow their dreams, and it denies Harvard the right to teach them. Without its international students, Harvard is not Harvard,” the school said in the filing.
Burroughs’ order on Thursday also continued a separate temporary restraining order she issued on May 23 against the administration’s restriction on international student enrollment at Harvard.

Thank you very much and God bless you.
Obama appointee
Another skanky, chimpanzee posing as a ditzy “District Judge” mini femi god that should be locked up in jail herself. She’s a Trump/America hater in over her head.
So surprised.
Much shock.
How do you describe Boasberg?
So any terrorist who wants to enter the US must have due process before being denied a visa? Just deny the visas and let the judge staff the immigration booths at Logan.
....pursue their education and follow their dreams...
natural Born US Citizens want to pursue an education and follow their dreams.
just sayin
She’s not a “US Judge”. She works for 12 million of Joe Pedo’s illegal alien invaders/colonials/voters that were smuggled into our country by the far left. The “Judiciary’s” own Acme Human trafficking service with “coyotes” in black robes.
And stop fricken announcing these things, have the US Embassies deny the visas at application. If a judge finds out because Harvard finally finds out or a commie Dept of State employee and tries to stop it, make him/her rule individually for every Embassy. Cloward-Piven the judiciary.
Wouldn’t it be better if this DISTRICT judge minded his own business in his own district?
I’d the situation was reversed and these judges refusing Obama or Biden, the left would be dozing these judges and protecting on their property.
This is utter nonsense. There are no such "rights" as expressed by the dimwitted judge. Where are they enumerated? In the Constitution? In the Bible?
When will the USSC EVER reign in these out-of-control little judicial pipsqueaks?
Damn spell check... let’s try this again:
If the situation was reversed and Republican picked judges were refusing Obama or Biden, the left would be doxxing these judges and protesting on their property.
I can’t be certain going by the picture I’ve seen, but it seems this judge is a woman.
Where does this ho get the authority? She doesn’t have any standing here.
“The Proclamation denies thousands of Harvard’s students the right to come to this country…”
There is no right to come to this country.
Period.
L
They’re not international students, they’re foreign students. Learn English.
And of course the GOPe in the congress could dissolve these districts per the Constitution but does nothing per the uniparty.
