Cruz: Hate ‘manifesting right here’ during hearing on campus antisemitism | National
SUMMARY: During a Senate Judiciary hearing on hate crimes, Sen. Ted Cruz criticized pro-Hamas rioters and Democrats for the rise of antisemitism in the U.S., citing increased threats against Jewish students on college campuses. The hearing was disrupted by protestors, leading Cruz to label their actions as antisemitism. Cruz noted that antisemitic incidents have surged since the Oct. 7 Hamas attack on Israel, particularly in universities. He emphasized that while other forms of hate are swiftly condemned, antisemitism is often overlooked. Texas Gov. Greg Abbott reinforced the need for educational institutions to combat antisemitism and enacted measures to address this issue.
