In this Just the News article, Amanda Head reports that faith leaders, lawmakers, and Trump administration officials gathered in Washington, D.C., to confront rising antisemitism and highlight President Trump’s record of support for Israel.
- The event took place Monday at the Museum of the Bible and brought together members of Congress, faith leaders, Israeli officials, and Trump administration figures.
- Speakers included Sen. Rick Scott, Reps. Elise Stefanik and Kat Cammack, Israeli Ambassador Michael Leiter, Leo Terrell, Sebastian Gorka, Dr. Alveda King, Lucas Miles, and others.
- Much of the event focused on Trump’s pro-Israel record, including recognizing Jerusalem as Israel’s capital, moving the U.S. Embassy there, recognizing Israeli sovereignty over the Golan Heights, and brokering the Abraham Accords.
- The article also credits Trump’s second-term policies with advancing an Israel-Hamas ceasefire and hostage-release deal, supporting Israel militarily, sanctioning the International Criminal Court over warrants targeting Israeli leaders, and backing U.S.-Israeli action against Iranian nuclear sites.
- A major theme was the rise of antisemitism on college campuses, especially after the Oct. 7, 2023, Hamas attacks on Israel.
- Elise Stefanik revisited her confrontations with Ivy League university leaders over whether calls for genocide against Jews violated campus rules, exchanges that helped expose how elite schools handled antisemitism.
- Israeli Ambassador Michael Leiter criticized media coverage of the Israel-Hamas war, singling out The New York Times for a Gaza starvation photo that critics said omitted key context.
- Sebastian Gorka emphasized the administration’s counterterrorism work, including recent actions involving an Iran-backed Iraqi terror leader, a Tren de Aragua figure, and an ISIS commander.
- The gathering framed the fight against antisemitism as both a political and moral issue, with strong praise for Trump’s efforts to strengthen the U.S.-Israel alliance.
