Jamie Raskin (D-MD) Says Campus Antisemitism is "Fake"

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


 Liberal Congressman Jamie Raskin (D-MD) is charging that investigations and lawsuits brought by the Trump Justice Department and Department of Education against universities for allowing antisemitism to run rampant on campus are “fake”. The poor universities are being “framed” by the Trump administration, according to Raskin, who himself is Jewish. 

Haley Van Erem, a former Justice Department attorney from 2015-2023, has alleged that DOJ and Health and Human Services unfairly investigated Harvard, Columbia, and Brown Universities on allegations of campus antisemitism. The Justice Department has responded that Van Erem was not involved in the investigations into those specific universities and stands by its actions.

I cannot speak with any authority on Harvard, Brown, and Columbia other than what I have read and posted on this site. In my opinion, however, Columbia has stood out as the absolute worst when it comes to campus antisemitism in recent years. Harvard and Brown have been featured many times as well on this site. It sems to me that their failures to protect Jewish students from bullying and intimidation on campus are well-documented.

I can speak with some authority as to UC Irvine, where I taught part-time from 1998-2016. I have personally witnessed and written about incidents on that campus on countless occasions. And the problem did not end in 2016. I have occasionally returned to campus on occasions that drew my interest, such as the 2024 encampment set up by Hamas supporters following the October 2023 massacre of Israeli civilians by Hamas. 

If Raskin wants to conduct an investigation on this matter, he can send one of his representatives to talk to me. I will even be happy to come to Washington and testify before his judiciary committee. I am confident that I have seen and heard many things that Ms. Van Erem never has. I promise it would be an education for both of them.
