Biden’s Lack of Action on Pro-Hamas Students Contrasts Heavily With the Group He Did Take Action Against

After President Joe Biden stammered his way through the State of the Union address, one moment stood out to many. To be more accurate, it happened soon after the State of the Union when Biden apologized for calling Laken Riley's murderer an "illegal alien."

The moment was so needlessly disrespectful, not just to Riley and her family, but to Americans everywhere as it showed Biden was far more willing to pay respect to criminals in our nation than us. I had to ask the question "Who is Joe Biden the President Of?" 

Like you, I've been seeing the footage coming out of Columbia University that shows students attempting to intimidate Jewish students and push them off of various parts of the campus. It's one of many blatant displays of racism by the left which has made racism against certain groups completely fine.

No one on the left seems to have made the connection that they're doing exactly what the Nazis were doing to Jewish people leading up to WW2, blaming them for all sorts of societal ills, including societies that aren't even our own. To be clear, Jewish people aren't even the cause of the ills being felt in Gaza. That's on Hamas, the very group many of these students are referring to as "freedom fighters." 

The problem is so bad that Missouri Senator Josh Hawley felt the need to pen a letter to Biden asking him to mobilize the National Guard to protect the Jewish students at Columbia as the situation heats up. With every failure from law enforcement to protect these students, it follows that the people expressing their blind hatred will only grow bolder:

Campus police and local law enforcement have failed to secure the campus. On Sunday, Rabbi Elie Buechler, the Director of the university’s Orthodox Union-Jewish Learning Initiative on Campus, stated that these authorities “cannot guarantee Jewish students’ safety” and recommended that Jewish students “return home as soon as possible.” And today, on Passover, Columbia University President Minouche Shafik cancelled in-person classes, citing “too many examples of intimidating and harassing behavior on our campus.”

In your statement on Passover, you stated that “in recent days, we’ve seen harassment and calls for violence against Jews. This blatant Antisemitism is reprehensible and dangerous – and it has absolutely no place on college campuses, or anywhere in our country.” Now, you must take action to match those words. 

In 1957, pursuant to Executive Order 10730, President Dwight Eisenhower deployed the National Guard and 101st Airborne Division to ensure the safety of black students attending Central High in Little Rock, Arkansas. I urge you to similarly mobilize the National Guard and other necessary authorities to protect Jewish American students on Columbia University’s campus, and any other campus where Jewish students are at risk. “Never again” means never again.

At this point, I'm sure no one is surprised that this is happening on an American University campus. These have become factories for radical leftist activists for decades. Students bearing the cause of the Nazis under the guise of social justice are pretty on brand for these places.

But this does highlight something that shouldn't go over anyone's head. 

The Biden administration was quick to take action back in 2021 when parents became rightly upset with the indoctrination of their own children by radical activists in their local schools. As Bob Hoge wrote in 2023 after the House Judiciary investigated the matter...: 

The FBI went on to routinely investigate parents who criticized school boards, including a father for simply opposing mask mandates and a mom deemed a threat for “owning guns” and belonging to a conservative parent group called “Moms for Liberty.”

Throughout the report, the committee describes the stonewalling and lack of response from Attorney General Merrick Garland and the Biden Administration. Nevertheless, members were able to glean enough information from whistleblowers, subpoenaed documents, and a report commissioned by the National School Boards Association (NSBA) which labeled parents as “domestic terrorists” to write the interim account:

From the initial set of material produced in response to the subpoenas, it is apparent that the Biden Administration misused federal law-enforcement and counterterrorism resources for political purposes. The Justice Department’s own documents demonstrate that there was no compelling nationwide law-enforcement justification for the Attorney General’s directive or the Department components’ execution thereof.

This is hardly the only time the Biden administration has utilized its resources to come after American citizens. Donald Trump and people who have no business being harassed over January 6 could tell you all about that. 

But I bring this up to, once again, ask the question. 

Who is Joe Biden the President of? 

His administration labels parents as "domestic terrorists" when they speak out to protect their children, but not when students literally rally together to intimidate and harass someone based on their race. They'll send entire teams of well-armed, well-trained men to arrest someone they think was at the Capitol on January 6 but this administration seems dead-set on letting criminals who make their way across our southern border live a life where they feel no need to look over their shoulder. 

I think it's pretty clear that Biden isn't on your side. I think it's obvious that his administration has a contempt for you that it doesn't have for legitimate criminals, racists, and other types of lowlife. 

Rising crime, bad economic decisions, censorship, and more. We're suffering through a term by a group of handlers who clearly do not like us. 

Vote accordingly. 

Moreover, be sure to keep informed. As we drift closer to November, the fight is only going to get more intense and there's no telling how far the Democrats and the left will go to maintain power.
