I was deeply saddened and disturbed by the heinous attack that occurred this week in Boulder, during which an Egyptian citizen who had overstayed his visa launched Molotov cocktails at a group innocent people — including a Holocaust survivor — who were marching peacefully in support of Israeli hostages. I am praying for a full recovery for the victims.
For far too long, President Biden’s legacy of open border policies has continued to wreak havoc across the nation, as millions of illegal immigrants with were let into this country with little to no vetting. This horrific incident is exactly why the Trump administration is working to quickly secure our border and enforce immigration laws. I am devastated that brave individuals who chose to peacefully protest the brutality of the Hamas regime were subjected to this horrific trauma at the hands of a violent, disturbed individual living in our nation illegally.
The recent rise in antisemitic acts of violence is appalling and unacceptable. As the former chief of Counter Terrorism in the U.S. Attorney’s office, I’m all too familiar with these kinds of attacks, which demand a clear response and condemnation from the United States. I am incredibly grateful that the Trump administration have taken this terrorist into custody and trust he will be brought to swift and decisive justice. I join the administration in condemning this hatred, and I will continue to advocate for a peaceful resolution to the war in Gaza and an immediate and unconditional return of all the hostages.
I joined Nexstar to discuss this tragic incident, and how we as a nation can move forward to put a stop to antisemitism:
