Hawley Confronts Democrat Witness Who Supports DEI, Sympathizes with Antisemitic Protesters
In a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing today, U.S. Senator Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) confronted Kevin Rachlin, the Washington director of The Nexus Project, over his refusal to unequivocally condemn university campuses’ coddling of antisemitic criminals. The Senator went on to press Rachlin—a witness invited by Senate Democrats—about Rachlin’s support for universities’ DEI systems and the reverse discrimination they promote.
“If you come to this country on a student visa, you are here as a guest of the United States for particular purposes,” Senator Hawley stated. “If you assault a Jewish student on campus, you ought to be out of here. And we ought to make it clear to people that we are no going to tolerate it,” he continued, triggering a loud applause from the room.
“Shouldn’t we condemn . . . DEI officials for saying ‘Israeli students are colonizers,’ ‘Jewish-American students are colonizers,’ ‘Israel is an apartheid state?” Senator Hawley asked. “That is wrong—full stop, no conditions.”
Rachlin proceeded to defend DEI programs.
