This has been a long time coming, and in my view, this is a great day. The Trump administration has announced that $400 million dollars in federal grants has been stripped from Columbia University for its inability or unwillingness to protect Jewish students on campus. Jihad Watch has the story here.
Meanwhile, the Columbia campus newspaper, Columbia Spectator, also has a report here. It is also being reported that Columbia has suspended 4 students for their roles in the occupation of Barnard College's library this week.
Note that Democrats like Jerry Nadler (D-NY) are decrying the move. Contrary to what Nadler and others may charge, this is not a move to advance the MAGA agenda. It is a move to force universities to start getting serious about protecting their Jewish students.
This may go down as one of Trump's major accomplishments. The only real way to force universities to stop this wave of anti-Semitic disorder on their campuses is to hit them in the pocketbooks. I have a feeling that along with Border Czar Tom Homan, Leo Terrell, who is heading DOJ's task force combatting anti-Semitism, is going to be one of the shining stars of this administration. This same move should be applied to many other universities.
