Speaker Mike Johnson stands tall against hateful campus mobs

House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) gave new evidence yesterday of having “found his voice” in defense of Western values against the threats from both international and domestic bullies and mobs.

Johnson spoke at Columbia University, which has cowered and covered itself with shame by going to a “hybrid,” mostly online, model of classes rather than crack down on threatening antisemitic mobs. When members of mobs keep their ID badges but a Jewish professor loses the use of his and thus loses access to his own campus because the school administration says it can’t guarantee his safety, that’s an abomination.
