We have had our differences in the past, but have never trashed Van Jones like other progressives, for instances, the disgraced governor of N.Y. , Andrew Cuomo, a real lunatic.
No matter if you like him or not, Mr. Jones is level headed, in most cases he knows right form wrong. And so it is when he has stepped up to the plate and defended Jewish kids from marauding Muslim sympathizers including pseudo Palestinians, who in many cases, are here illegally or if not, have now broken their student visas and should be deported.
CNN’s Van Jones praises GOP for defending ‘Jewish kids’ on campuses, claims Dems in ‘disarray’ on issue
CNN’s Van Jones praised the Republican Party for sticking up for “Jewish kids” on college campuses amid the rash of antisemitism that cropped up after Hamas’ attack on Israel last month.
During his commentary on the third GOP presidential primary debate on Wednesday night, the CNN political contributor remarked that Republicans “forcefully” defended Jewish students while claiming that Democrats found themselves in “disarray” over the issue.
Jones made the comments after complimenting former South Carolina governor and 2024 presidential candidate Nikki Haley’s performance on the debate stage that evening.
The candidates also spoke about Jewish college students who have felt unsafe amid various pro-Palestinian protests that have erupted on major American campuses that have accused the Jewish state of oppressing and antagonizing Palestinians in the lead up to the attack.
During the debate, Haley argued, “If the KKK were doing this, every college president would be up in arms. This is no different. You should treat it exactly the same. Antisemitism is just as awful as racism, and we’ve got to make sure they’re protected.”
She added, “For everybody that’s protesting on these college campuses in favor of Hamas. Let me remind you something, Hamas said: ‘Death to Israel’ and ‘Death to America.’ They hate and would kill you too.“
