Trump says he would remove funding from schools fostering antisemitic activity

With widespread accusations of civil rights violations against Jewish students on U.S. campuses following the Oct. 7, 2023, terrorist attack on Israel, President-elect Donald Trump described how he will set his administration apart from his predecessor’s.

Trump vowed in September that schools not doing enough to investigate, prevent, or punish antisemitic activity on campus will be “held accountable for violations of the civil rights law,” which entails removing federal funding or even college accreditation.
