Former President Donald Trump has unveiled a comprehensive plan to tackle antisemitism in the United States, particularly focusing on college campuses. Speaking at the Israeli American Conference (IAC summit), Trump promised that, if re-elected, his administration would inform college presidents that they must eradicate antisemitic propaganda or risk losing their accreditation and federal funding under Title VI of civil rights laws. He emphasized his commitment to defending Jewish students and ensuring their right to education without fear. Trump's plan includes cutting off funding for universities that fail to address antisemitism and prosecuting civil rights violations. He also vowed to support Israel and the Jewish community, urging Jewish Americans to vote for him to combat antisemitism and protect Israel from terrorism. Trump criticized the current administration, referring to the situation as 'Kamala's America.'
