President Biden has an antisemitism problem that is large and growing larger. It is his problem and he can’t shed responsibility for it. The people who work for him are not doing their jobs to stop discrimination against Jews in America.This problem has been evident for six months, reaching a climax at Columbia and Yale Universities. Police have taken some action against violent protesters, but the Biden Departments of Education and Justice have been MIA.
The Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights website acknowledges that discrimination based on race, color, or national origin is prohibited in federally funded programs. However, despite the numerous reports of antisemitic harassment at Columbia, Yale, Harvard, and other universities, the DOE-OCR has not taken any meaningful action.
The organization Campus Reform has filed numerous complaints about anti-Semitism on American campuses, but the Biden administration seems to be ignoring them. The Department of Justice has also failed to file any civil rights actions against colleges or universities for antisemitic acts.
In sharp contrast, the State Department is prepared to sanction units in the Israeli Defense Forces for alleged war crimes. This shows that the Biden administration is more concerned with finding fault with Israel than with protecting the civil rights of Jews in the United States.
It is up to voters to punish this disgusting abdication of enforcement of the country’s civil rights laws. Let’s hope no student has to be killed before the DOE and DOJ act.

Polling has shown that the trials are unlikely to have much impact on the outcome of the 2024 presidential election, with opinions about Trump’s guilt falling mainly along party lines.
