President Donald Trump to deport Hamas sympathizers on college campuses, defund CRT with new executive orders

Trump's directive gives all federal agencies a 60-day window to identify civil and criminal authorities available to combat antisemitism and deport anti-Jewish activists who broke any laws. 

"Immediate action will be taken by the Department of Justice to protect law and order, quell pro-Hamas vandalism and intimidation, and investigate and punish anti-Jewish racism in leftist, anti-American colleges and universities," a White House fact sheet obtained by Fox News states.

Additionally, Trump is expected to sign two education-related executive orders. One that will strip federal funding from K-12 schools that teach critical race theory or radical gender ideology and another that will support school choice.

The report came after Columbia University and other major schools were host to anti-Israel encampments on campus, where numerous antisemitic incidents were reported after the Oct. 7, 2023, terror attacks in southern Israel. 

Republicans accused Biden's State Department and Department of Homeland Security of stonewalling requests for the number of visa holders among those anti-Israel agitators, the GOP report said, according to the Post.

"Immediately after the jihadist terrorist attacks against the people of Israel on October 7, 2023, pro-Hamas aliens and left-wing radicals began a campaign of intimidation, vandalism, and violence on the campuses and streets of America," the Trump White House fact sheet states.

The White House said the previous administration turned a "blind eye" to campus antisemitism and a "coordinated assault on public order" that Trump has promised to reverse.

Since 2023, Stefanik has served as a conservative firebrand who has repeatedly grilled "morally bankrupt" college leaders over their handling of antisemitism on campus after the Hamas terror attacks on Israel.

Most notably, Stefanik grilled Ivy League college administrators from Penn and Harvard, her alma mater, in December 2023 regarding whether "calling for the genocide of Jews" violates the respective school's codes of conduct. The school leaders, however, waffled in their responses. 

"It can be, depending on the context," Claudine Gay, Harvard's president at the time, responded when asked if "calling for the genocide of Jews" violated school conduct rules. 

"Antisemitic speech when it crosses into conduct that amounts to bullying, harassment, intimidation - that is actionable conduct, and we do take action," Gay said when pressed to answer "yes" or "no" if calls for the genocide of Jews breaks school rules. 

Gay and Penn's president at the time, Liz Magill, resigned from their high-profile positions shortly after the hearing, while footage of the exchanges spread like wildfire on social media. 

A federal judge on Tuesday paused the freeze in response to a lawsuit brought by nearly two dozen Democratic attorneys general. 

In his first term, Trump threatened to strip federal funding from cities that failed to stop anti-police riots that followed the May 2020 murder of George Floyd, but he left office before he could make good on that threat, the Post reported.
