Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer has been branded a traitor after damning claims that he asked Columbia University administrators to reject any criticism of the school’s handling of blatant violence and anti-Semitism on campus following the Hamas massacre on October 7, 2023 in Israel. .

In a 325-page report, the GOP-led House Education and Workforce Committee claimed that the New York Democrat informed Minouche Shafik, then the university’s president, that the school would escape scrutiny from the from Democrats, explaining that “the elite university’s political problems really only concern Republicans.” .”

His team then encouraged Columbia administrators that “the best strategy is to keep your head down,” according to the report.

“The self-proclaimed protector of the Jewish people. Chuckey Schumer is just a kapo traitor. He should be ashamed of himself,” said Dov Hikind, a former state lawmaker from Brooklyn who is a Democrat-turned-Republican and leads the group Americans Against Anti-Semitism.

“He is a traitor to America. He is a traitor to the Jewish people. Shame on him! This is what the Democratic Party has become.

The report follows a months-long investigation by the committee into the handling of anti-Israel protests earlier this year on 11 college campuses, including Columbia University, Harvard University, Yale University and the Northwestern University.

Private emails and text messages from university leaders, including Shafik, who resigned in August, were among the documents examined by the commission.

A spokesperson for Schumer insisted the report was “flat out false.”

“The senator. Schumer has regularly and forcefully condemned anti-Semitic acts in Colombia and elsewhere, saying that “when protests turn into anti-Semitism, verbal abuse, intimidation or glorification of the October 7 violence against the Jewish people, it crosses the line.” . He made that point publicly and to administrators privately,” Angelo Roefaro told The Post Thursday evening.

“It’s worth noting here that Republicans are quoting someone who is not Chuck Schumer. This is called hearsay,” he added.

According to the report, Columbia administrators ridiculed the committee for overhauling its oversight of violence and bias on campus and sent text messages explaining that they hoped Democrats would take control of Congress after Shafik’s discussion with Schumer.

In texts with board co-chairs David Greenwald and Claire Shipman in January, Shafik described Schumer as “very positive and supportive (and quite a storyteller).”

University leaders then felt emboldened to avoid any sort of meeting with Republicans after Schumer and his team indicated that a forum with the political party was not necessary, the report said.

Greenwald then echoed Schumer’s advice, writing: “If we keep our heads down, maybe we shouldn’t meet with Republicans.” »

Since the deadly Hamas raid in Israel, Jewish students in Columbia have received death threats, been spat on, stalked and slammed against walls as the Ivy League school turned into a cesspool of anti-Semitic hatred. according to a disturbing report released by the university in August.

Students also had their jewelry ripped off as they walked to and from synagogue, were reprimanded for showing support for Zionist causes, were called ethnic slurs, and saw Israeli flags burned.

Anti-Israel protesters from an on-campus encampment barricaded themselves inside Hamilton Hall in April and attempted to rename it Hind’s Hall after a Palestinian child was killed in the conflict.

On 100 people were arrested after cops responded to Columbia’s request to help chase away the destructive mob that had illegally taken over the university building.

“The report is further proof of what we already knew: Columbia has failed to do its job to prevent anti-Semitism on campus,” said Ari Shrage, director of the Columbia Jewish Alumni Association.

“Unfortunately, the report also shows that many of its insiders are part of the deep institutional rot. Their statement today is just another ‘word salad’ and the terrible events on campus in recent weeks show that they continue to talk but fail to act.”

As the new school year began last month, Columbia came under fire from more anti-Israel protesters, who defaced a statue of the Alma Mater on university grounds with red paint.

“The recent report from the House Committee on Education and Workforce demonstrates how Democrats are talking about both sides of their month,” Republican U.S. Senate candidate Mike Sapraicone told the Post.

“Senator Schumer’s reports rejecting blatant violence and anti-Semitism are exactly why I’m running to replace his counterpart, who is nothing more than a rubber stamp. Election day will prove that Americans are no longer tolerant.”

The Republican-led House education panel also found that Ivy League university leaders made “an intentional decision” to remove language condemning Hamas’ massacre of more than 1,200 civilians as “violence” and references to their Israeli hostages from any official statements following the brutal attack.

“We denounce this act of terrorism,” read an earlier version of the statement that was scrapped, according to the report. The report also reveals that several schools refused to support Jewish students.

Columbia has not yet responded to a request for comment.
