Josh Hawley Says It’s Time To Pull Strings On Universities Abusing Taxpayer Dollars Against Jewish Students

Republican Missouri Sen. Josh Hawley said on Thursday that it was time for the university to discriminate against Jewish students by misusing taxpayer dollars.

When featured in “Ingraham’s Angle,” Holy discussed concerns about the misuse of taxpayer dollars by universities in ways he believes to discriminate against Jewish students. Holy said he praised the Trump administration’s willingness to enforce American laws and protect campus, and especially Jewish students.

“They definitely discriminate against Jewish students, and the worst part is that they do it with our money. They take our taxes. And you’re right. That money comes with lots of strings,” Holy told host Laura Ingraham. “Now is the time to start pulling those strings.”

Holy said President Donald Trump’s takeover of the White House represents a turning point in addressing what he considers a systematic issue across America’s campus.

“We have a new president in the White House. I think there are people who are willing to implement American laws. I think there are people who want to protect students on campus, people who want to protect Jewish students on campus. “That’s what happened. Laura, I’m happy that Trump will ultimately hold these people accountable.”

Holy criticized the institution for instructing students while profiting from donations.

“You know what we should do? We tax their contributions. These universities are huge hedge funds that take our money, inculcate our children, and make them rich,” added Holy. “These people should not get federal funds. We should be taxed on their contributions and expel students from this country on visas engaged in this type of garbage.”

Ingraham then referred to the Bob Jones University Supreme Court case. It said it determined that a conviction of discrimination could result in the loss of tax-free status. (Related: “They’re a dead end”: Newt Ginrich says Elon Musk’s shift away from Dem is a wake-up call for America)

“There’s actually a clear pattern here. The actual pattern is licking the left-wing and Pro-Hamas loblakers hitting a building attacking Jewish students,” Holy told Ingraham. “The other day there was a student in my office. A proud American, a Jewish American. He’s actually going to join our army, and what did he have? His arm in the sling. Why? Because on his own university campus, he had the tension to set up a table for Israel, so he jumped on a bunch of thugs. I mean? And the university is holding back. Just let it happen.”

Anti-Israel protesters from the “Voice for Jewish Peace” stormed Trump Tower in New York City and called for President Trump to be released Mahmoud Khalil, who was involved in the Columbia University camp. Wore red shirts with the slogan “Jesus says he will stop arming Israel,” they identified Trump with Nazis and fascists, chanting “Free Mahmoud, liberate everything,” and claimed that opposing fascism coincided with Jewish traditions.

The Trump administration has retracted about $400 million in federal funds from Columbia University and cited its failure to address the continued harassment of Jewish students following warnings of further financial penalties if corrective actions are not in place. In response, Columbia announced its commitment to combat anti-Semitism and work with the Trump administration to resolve the issue.
