Rep. Tim Walberg, R-Mich., harshly criticized the antisemitic, pro-Hamas mob on Tuesday night targeting Jewish people in Brooklyn, telling Newsmax on Wednesday that it is crucial that there be a response to it that is swift and significant in order to demonstrate that such hatred is not what America is all about.
Walberg, who is chairman of the House Education and Workforce Committee, told “Wake Up America” that it is sad and wrong that such hatred exists in America, “a place that all people ought to be free and all people ought to have the opportunity to live according to their religious dictates, faith, principles … and that is why we have to take strong aim at [antisemitism] and show that there is going to be a response that is swift [and] significant.”
Walberg also took aim at universities, including Columbia, saying that “we expect them to crack down on antisemitism anywhere, anyplace on their campuses and be a catalyst for helping that happen in other parts of the community as well.”
