Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) allegedly instructed administrators at Columbia University to ignore any criticism of the school’s handling of violence against Jews and antisemitism on campus following the Oct. 7, 2023, Palestinian terrorist attacks against Israel.
A new report released by the US House Education and Workforce Committee following an investigation into the handling of anti-Israel protests this year on 11 college campuses stated Schumer advised then-Columbia University President Minouche Shafik that Democrats would look the other way on the violence on campus because the university’s “political problems are really only among Republicans.”
His staff told Columbia administrators that the “best strategy is to keep heads down.”
The committee also revealed that many administrations of Ivy League universities, including Columbia, Harvard University, Yale University, and Northwestern University made “an intentional decision” to remove language condemning the rape, torture, and execution of over 1,200 civilians and the kidnapping of 250 more, and remove references to Israeli hostages from any official statements following the atrocities.
