House Speaker Mike Johnson Addresses Antisemitism Amid Chaos at Columbia University

House Speaker Mike Johnson is making headlines for his stance on antisemitism in the wake of the border crisis debacle. As Columbia University faces chaos with terrorist sympathizers taking over campus, Johnson is set to give a press conference at the Ivy League school. However, some believe the university needs the National Guard, not a politician trying to shift the news cycle.

The university recently announced a shift to hybrid classes for the rest of the semester due to sustained demonstrations. Antisemitism has spiked on campus, prompting a rabbi to urge Jewish students to go home for their safety.

Republican senators have called on President Biden to deploy the National Guard to Columbia, but some criticize Johnson for his performative actions at the southern border. The Republican Party’s credibility on the border crisis has been questioned, with some pointing out their lack of effective opposition to racial hatred-fomenting riots in 2020.

Despite the criticism, Republicans have been holding high-profile hearings with Ivy League leadership to address racism against Jews. Columbia University’s president recently faced scrutiny for questioning the literacy of her own faculty during a hearing.

As the situation at Columbia University unfolds, the debate over how to address antisemitism and campus unrest continues. Stay tuned for updates on this developing story.
