MELANIA Trump has responded angrily to a circulating rumor about Barron, after the first son became the subject of a conspiracy theory regarding his father’s White House decisions.

The conspiracy theory is centered on Barron’s college admissions and President Donald Trump’s fight against Harvard University.

Speculation around Trump’s decision to halt federal funding to Harvard has led to gossip suggesting the true motivation is Barron’s alleged rejection from the Ivy League school.

However, a spokesperson for Melania quickly shut down these internet rumors.

“Barron did not apply to Harvard, and any assertion that he, or that anyone on his behalf, applied is completely false,” stated Nick Clemens, spokesperson for the Office of the First Lady, to The Palm Beach Post.

Barron, 19, currently attends New York University, where he just finished his freshman year. 

“[Barron’s] now going to college, got into every college he wanted to,” Donald Trump said at a 2024 rally in Florida.

“He made his choice and he is a very good guy.”

The president also previously hailed Barron’s computer skills and said he had an “unbelievable aptitude” in technology, teasing that the youngest first child may not follow his father into politics.

TRUMP VS. HARVARD

The rumors come as the Trump administration searches for a way to withhold all of Harvard’s federal funding.

On Thursday, Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem told Harvard that it lost its ability to enroll foreign students due to a “refusal to comply with multiple requests to provide the Department of Homeland Security with pertinent information while perpetuating an unsafe campus environment that is hostile to Jewish students, promotes pro-Hamas sympathies, and employs racist ‘diversity, equity and inclusion’ policies.” 

The next day, Judge Allison Burroughs allowed Harvard a temporary restraining order, which prevented the government from unenrolling the school in the Student and Exchange Visitor Program. 

The historic university has already sued the government to restore the frozen $3.2 billion in federal grant funding.

“Why isn’t Harvard saying that almost 31% of their students are from FOREIGN LANDS, and yet those countries, some not at all friendly to the United States, pay NOTHING toward their student’s education, nor do they ever intend to,” Trump said in a post on his Truth Social platform on Sunday.

“We want to know who those foreign students are, a reasonable request since we give Harvard BILLIONS OF DOLLARS, but Harvard isn’t exactly forthcoming. We want those names and countries.”

On Monday, Trump accused the school of being antisemitic and of supporting pro-Hamas views.

He also called out the university for being “slow” on providing sensitive information to the government.

“We are still waiting for the Foreign Student Lists from Harvard so that we can determine, after a ridiculous expenditure of BILLIONS OF DOLLARS, how many radicalized lunatics, troublemakers all, should not be let back into our Country,” he wrote.

“Harvard is very slow in the presentation of these documents, and probably for good reason!”

“The best thing Harvard has going for it is that they have shopped around and found the absolute best Judge (for them!) – But have no fear, the Government will, in the end, WIN!”

The president proposed giving the funding from Harvard to trade schools instead. 

“I am considering taking Three Billion Dollars of Grant Money away from a very antisemitic Harvard, and giving it to TRADE SCHOOLS all across our land,” he wrote on Truth Social.

“What a great investment that would be for the USA, and so badly needed!!!”
