President Trump took a strong stand against antisemitism by cutting $400 million in federal funding from Columbia University. Harvard professor Alan Dershowitz supports this move, saying it’s a good first step to clean up radical ideas in colleges. He warns that these schools are teaching students to hate America and Israel instead of real academics.
Dershowitz says Columbia’s campus has become a breeding ground for anti-American protests. Students wave banners calling for war against Israel and the U.S. He points out that these protests are funded by departments pushing radical politics, not education. The Trump administration’s action sends a clear message: taxpayers won’t pay for hate.
Radical programs at Columbia teach students to smash “white suprema-cis hetero-patriarchy” instead of critical thinking. Dershowitz showed a Barnard College tank top with this slogan as proof. These departments exist to push far-left agendas, not to help students learn. They’re funded by countries that hate Israel, making the problem worse.
Columbia hired professors who praise Hamas terrorists and punish Jewish students. One professor demanded a student admit Israel commits war crimes before speaking in class. Dershowitz says schools like Columbia pick teachers based on their hatred of Israel, not their skills. This creates a hostile environment for Jewish students.
Dershowitz helped President Trump fight campus antisemitism before. In 2019, they made rules to stop federal money going to schools that discriminate against Jews. Now, he says cutting Columbia’s funding is just the start. Every radical program using tax dollars should be shut down.
The problem goes deeper than protests. Dershowitz blames “Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion” programs for pushing antisemitism. These programs judge people by race and religion instead of merit. Jewish students at Harvard dropped from 23% to 9% under DEI policies. He calls DEI a harmful bureaucracy that must be eliminated.
President Trump’s bold move protects American values. Schools like Columbia spend billions in federal funds to spread anti-American lies. Dershowitz urges more cuts until colleges return to teaching facts, not activism. America’s future leaders shouldn’t learn hate on the taxpayer’s dime.
Conservatives cheer this crackdown on woke education. It’s a win against radical indoctrination in universities. Dershowitz vows to keep fighting until all anti-Semitic programs lose funding. The message is clear: schools promoting hate won’t get a free pass anymore.
