DOJ lawyer taking on Columbia U. finds 'partner' in Mayor Adams
Briefly

A Trump administration official praised New York City Mayor Eric Adams for his initiative in combating antisemitism, emphasizing the need for better support systems for victims. With an increase in antisemitic incidents, Adams's recent actions, including launching a new office dedicated to this cause, underscore the importance he places on addressing hate crimes. As mayoral elections approach, Adams's efforts reflect a bid to court support from various political alignments while tackling what he labels a serious issue in the city and beyond. Data indicates a significant rise in crimes targeting Jewish individuals.
"For too long, antisemitic propaganda has been masquerading as activism, and it has led to an unacceptable rise in antisemitism across our city and in our country."
"We are exploring ways to make victims of antisemitic hate crimes feel more comfortable contacting authorities."
