we are really honored to welcome our next speaker. you know, it has been 258 days since hamas terrorists breached the border with israel. and committed the bloodiest atrocities to suffer the jewish people since the founding of the modern state of israel. and since that day, we have been shocked and stunned as americans to see a rising tide of anti-semitism. around the world in europe, in the united states, and in many ways, most troubling on our college campuses. and on december 5 of last year, in a shot that was heard literally around the world, elyse stephan nick asked a simple question which was whether or not it was okay on
12:19 am
the most elite institutions of higher learning in america to practice anti-semitism. and to engage in jew hatred. and i do not know about you, by the way, the video that hearing has now been viewed a billion times. one alien times. [applause] and at a time when so many of our leaders will not take a stand, at a time when the president of the united states as he has israel's back and then stabs them in the chest, at a time when in our own nation we cannot believe that after decades of saying never again we see this kind of hatred and bigotry. this woman stood up, she was counted, she was heard from, she was a profile encouraged and she forced the resignation of not one, but two presidents of ivy
12:20 am
league universities.

[applause] i also want to thank ralph for his extraordinary leadership. he has been a leader in the conservative movement, very young age. he has a wonderful friend as is his family to mind. i've got to know him on the campaign trail particularly as we have worked to support up and down the ballot. to earn this award to be presented by ralph such an esteemed conservative leader, it is truly a humbling honor for me let's talk about what is at stake this election cycle.
12:23 am
we have seen under joe biden crisis after crisis. let's start with the historic biden border catastrophe. this is the most wide open catastrophic border crisis in our nations history. let me tell you, it is not just our southern border, i know we have so many southern border states represented here today, but it is our border across the country and our northern border. i was just up in my district in upstate new york meeting with border patrol and we have seen more illegals crossing than ever before, including individuals on the terrorist watch list. and the american people are smart. they know that the millions of illegals that have poured into our country are because of joe biden's unconstitutional illegal executive actions wiping away president trumps most effective border security policies in our nations history. that is why when president trump says he will secure the border,
12:24 am
build the wall and catch and release, restore remain a mexico policy, we know what the most secure border is in our nations history and it is president trumps border security policies. those are on the ballot this november. [applause] and it is not just border states as i mentioned. northern border states our southern border states, every district every state is a border state and border districts. every community is a border district. the leading cause of death for young americans is sentinel poisoning which is flowing in across our borders because of this border catastrophe. we are going to run and we are going to win on securing the border on top of the border crisis we also have the biden inflation crisis. the highest rate of inflation in my lifetime. if you talk to hard-working americans which i do every day, i was just in my district is eating small businesses, visiting with members of the workforce, visiting with
12:25 am
hard-working families, this inflation is crushing hard-working families. going to the grocery store every week he had the price of eggs, i am a new mom, the price of diapers, the price of baby formula, the price of food, bacon, meat. it goes up and up and is a direct result of joe biden's failed biden economics policies which have hurt catastrophically families, small businesses, manufacturers and farms. compare that with the america first economic boom that we saw under president trump. we will restore american greatness, we will restore the great america first economy and we will get that done house republicans working with president trump to fight back and crush this inflation that is been hurting so many families. [applause] and we also, and this is tied to the economic crisis where we are seeing the inflation crisis
12:26 am
under joe biden. on day one, joe biden declared war on american energy independence. and hard-working americans are footing the bill. we are paying more for utilities , paying more at the pump, all of those energy costs continue to go up. we are having to rely on un-american energy. we must be the energy leader in the world. we know under president trump on day one we will unleash american energy independence. the hundreds of thousands of jobs that come from that, the billions of economic growth that come from those policies, we will get that done. we also have a catastrophic crime crisis. i can speak to that from a traditionally blue state like new york where we have seen democrats that control all levels of government, advocate for defunding the police, for failed ale reform which allows violent criminals to return back to our streets.
12:27 am
we have a crime crisis in places like san francisco, new york city, other places across america. what the american people are seeing through is, at the same time as this catastrophic crime crisis, we are seeing the illegal weaponization of our courts and radical district attorneys like alvin bragg going after joe biden's teeth political opponent he that is donald j trump. it is a form of election interference. it is illegal. it is unconstitutional. [applause] we must do everything that we can as american people to make sure that we restore equal justice under the law. that we stand up against this radicalization, this corruption of our courts. i have been proud as a member of the new york delegation a just a proud new yorker to file an
12:28 am
ethics complaint against alvin bragg. the corrupt process, the jury selection process. [applause] think about this. it is so corrupt that in the jury selection process, the jurors were asked, do you follow any social media accounts of resident donald j trump did if any of them said yes they were not allowed to serve on the jury they were not asked that about joe biden. they jury shopped and then they illegally judge shopped. the fact that this is a judge that donated to joe biden, it is corrupt. corrupt to the core. on top of that, the judge's direct family members are some of the chief fundraisers for radical democrats like adam schiff. fundraising off of this illegal loss there court case going after president donald j trump. we must save our country at the ballot box this november. it will be the american people
12:29 am
that save the constitution and save this country and fight back [applause] i will tell you, this is part of the reason why recently usc president trump gaining in poll after poll. he is ahead in every swing state but, importantly, even states like new york, democrats are in big, big trouble. president trump is within single digits in new york state and we are proud as new yorkers that no state flipped morehouse congressional seats than new york state from democrat to republican. we will continue to go on offense to build this majority. and send democrats packing. [applause] on top of the biden border crisis, the inflation crisis, the energy crisis, the crime crisis, we have also seen joe
12:30 am
biden's weakness as commander-in-chief on the global stage. we saw the catastrophic withdrawal from afghanistan. an absolute absolute black mark on america. the way the rest of the world views america. we then saw israel our most precious ally under attack from the vicious iranian backed hamas terrorist. leading to the deadliest day for the jewish people since the holocaust. what have we seen from joe biden what have we seen from this white house? we have seen anti-israel policies, they have turned their back on our most precious ally and i am very proud that president trump, if you look at our greatest defender of israel from the white house, it was president trump, the abraham accords, the embassy to jerusalem, support for israel, the iron dome support. [applause] ....
12:31 am
12:32 am
particularly attack against israel. i graduated from harvard. first member of my immediate family to graduate from college. what i'm most proud of i graduated in state of conservative which is a big achievement. [applause] >> so i encouraged my colleague chairwoman virginia fox that we need today have a hearing to address and combat this rise of anti-semitism on our college campuses and she agreed we had the hearing with university presidents from mit, from penn and from harvard and throughout the hearing we did not get a lot of direct answers. they were trying to avoid answering our questions. the question that is now the most testimony in the history of congress, that was the last question of the committee hearing. it was not my prepared question. i thought, how can i ask this question in a moral way to force
12:33 am
a yes answer and that question was this, just calling for the genocide of jews violate university's code of conduct and one after the after said the world heard, we know that the not reflective of american values. upenn's president was forced to resign in 48 hours. it took harvard a month as well and we have a message for higher ed, two down, so many to go, we will continue.
