ADL’s Greenblatt: I Applaud Trump’s DoJ for Taking a Tough Stance on the Boulder, Colo. Attacker

EXCERPT:

GREENBLATT: "Well, look, we have seen the president, we’ve seen AG Bondi, we've seen FBI Director Kash take a strong position on these kinds of acts. And Karoline is right, this is domestic terror. This is an act intended to engender fear, intended to promote insecurity. The man said he planned it for a year. He had 14 Molotov cocktails on him that he hadn’t even had a chance yet to use. I mean, this is a deranged individual. But we need to demonstrate deterrence. And, look, I think this is not only a violation of these Jewish people’s physical security, it’s a violation of their civil rights. Freedom of assembly is guaranteed in our Constitution under the First Amendment. So I applaud DoJ for taking a tough stance. And what I really want is whether it's social media influencers on Twitch or YouTube, like Hasan Piker, or other kind of promoters of hate on YouTube and TikTok like Guy Christensen, or like these speakers at the graduations, it just happened the other day at MIT, spreading blood libels about the Jewish people and the Jewish state, it creates the conditions in which this kind of act is happening with increasing frequency. We've got to stop it once and for all. I hope the Trump administration will do just that."
