Chuck Schumer’s betrayal: Letters to the Editor — Nov. 7, 2024

The Issue: Reports of Sen. Chuck Schumer’s anemic consequence to incidents of antisemitism connected campus.

I whitethorn speak for only a number of Jewish New Yorkers and Jewish Americans, but to me, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer is not a “shomer” (guardian) of Jews, arsenic he often likes to opportunity (“Schu ripped arsenic ‘traitor,’ ” Nov. 2).

Schumer is much of a quisling.

The study by nan House Education and Workforce Committee that nan erstwhile Columbia University president said he told officials “to support heads down” and that only Republicans were making an rumor of nan antisemitic outrages astatine Columbia suggests that he should resign.

Jewish Americans do not request “leaders” for illustration him.

Thanks to The Post for its repeated courageousness successful reporting and commenting connected nan 325-page study from nan House Education and Workforce Committees.

The insubstantial exposed really American universities grounded to protect Jewish students from pro-Hamas radicals aft nan October 7 pogrom (“Campus grounded to protect Jewish students,” PostOpinion, Rikki Schlott, Nov. 2).

This article revealed nan contemptible cowardice of elitist institutions for illustration Columbia successful appeasing sometimes convulsive activists who threatened and assaulted Jewish students and vandalized buildings, fundamentally without consequence.

No 1 but a low-information elector would ballot for Sen. Chuck Schumer.

Sadly, location look to beryllium galore of those successful New York.

This revelation has been a agelong clip coming: The Post has exposed Schumer arsenic a full fraud.

For years, since winking astatine erstwhile President Barack Obama’s support of nan Iranian authorities and its effort to create a atomic bomb, Schumer has pretended to beryllium a protagonist of Israel and nan Jewish people.

But his comments to Columbia’s erstwhile leader person exposed his 1 existent agenda: self-aggrandizement.

Schumer is simply a phony, a governmental hack of nan worst benignant (“Shielding Antisemites,” Editorial, Nov. 2).

He is not nan “protector” of nan Jewish people.

His non-actions and soundlessness regarding nan surge of antisemitism connected assemblage campuses and among his peers since speak volumes.

This makes maine bespeak connected Schumer’s consequence to Oct. 7.

He has called retired Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and nan actions of nan IDF.

He is thing but a coward, bowing to leftists.

It is truthful disappointing that a legislator from New York, nan authorities pinch nan largest Jewish organization successful this country, has turned his backmost connected ain people.

All New York Jews should retrieve this erstwhile he runs again for office.

Trust me, he will tally again because these politicians ne'er want to springiness up their power.

The latest revelation that Schumer advised Columbia to downplay its consequence to antisemititic incidents connected Columbia’s field would look successful characteristic pinch his winking greenlight for Obama to bypass nan Senate and ramming nan “Iran deal” up America’s tochus astatine nan United Nations (“Contemptible,” PostOpinion, Leil Leibovitz, Nov. 2).

It is besides successful statement pinch his consequence connected nan heels of Oct. 7, erstwhile he was clamoring for authorities alteration successful Israel.

All this from nan self-proclaimed guardian of nan Jewish people?

Why would it astonishment anyone that Chuck Schumer sold retired to nan pro-Hamas lunatics astatine Columbia?

This is simply a man who, arsenic a salient Jewish leader, was obscurity to beryllium recovered during nan emergence of antisemitic attacks passim nan city.

He is beholden to nan lobbyists and unions that donate and prop up nan Democratic Party.

He will ever find a microphone to request much money for his wide projects, not nan needs of his constituents.

The existent calamity is nan sheep that are nan mostly successful this pathetic metropolis person continued to ballot for him and apt ever will.
