White House dodges questions on college administrators' response to anti-Israel protests on campuses
Fox News
The White House dodged numerous questions on Monday, particularly when it came to the the Biden administration's response to how colleges are handling protests.
One reporter on Monday asked Jean-Pierre whether President Biden or anyone else in the White House had spoken with leadership at Columbia University, and if the president was happy with how school administrators are handling the situation. Greg Wehner is a breaking news reporter for Fox News Digital.
"The president has always been clear that while Americans have the right to peacefully protest…he stands squarely, squarely against any rhetoric, violent rhetoric, any hate, hate threats and physical intimidation and hate speech," she said, adding there is no place for antisemitism on college campuses or anywhere else. "It is a painful moment, we get that. But it is a painful moment that Americans are dealing with, and free expression has to be done within the law. And, you know, we're going to continue to be very clear about that." Story tips and can be sent to Greg.Wehner@Fox.com and on Twitter @GregWehner.
