Trump ramps up antisemitism crackdown following killings of Israeli Embassy staffers
- Two Israeli Embassy staff members, Yaron Lischinsky and Sarah Milgrim, were fatally shot on May 22 outside the Capital Jewish Museum in Washington, D.C.
- The attack by Elias Rodriguez, who was detained and heard chanting pro-Palestinian slogans, occurred amid a record surge in antisemitic incidents linked to Hamas’s October 7, 2023 attack and the Gaza war.
- The killings intensified concerns over rising antisemitism in the U.S., prompting local authorities to grant $500,000 to the museum for security upgrades amid heightened fears of hate crimes.
- Trump administration officials announced plans to intensify efforts against campus antisemitism through increased law enforcement, expedited deportations of antisemitic foreign students, and lawsuits against universities failing Jewish students.
- These measures reflect a broader national push to confront antisemitism as a growing threat, with officials emphasizing continued action beyond the murders to prevent further violence.
