In a recent rally against antisemitism in Washington, President-elect Donald Trump issued a stern warning to American universities, stating that they must eradicate antisemitic propaganda or risk losing their accreditation and federal funding.

"My administration will inform every college president that, if you do not end antisemitic propaganda, they will lose their accreditation and federal taxpayer support," Trump declared, emphasizing his commitment to combating antisemitism in his first week back in the Oval Office.

According to The Post Millennial, Trump's statement was met with applause from the crowd. He further added, "We will not subsidize the creation of terrorist sympathizers, and we’re not going to do it – certainly on American soil." The President-elect underscored the importance of ensuring the safety and equal rights of Jewish Americans, stating that educational institutions permitting violence or harassment against Jewish students would be held accountable under civil rights law.
