Watch: Trump gives University of Alabama commencement address
President Trump delivered a commencement address Thursday evening at the University of Alabama.
The speech came as Trump has been in a battle with higher education institutions over their policies on diversity, equity and inclusion, on-campus protests, alleged inaction on antisemitism and other areas. The White House has threatened funding at top schools as a way to pressure them to change their policies.
It also followed the administration’s moves to dismantle the Education Department.
His remarks were scheduled to begin at 8 p.m. EDT.
