Alan Dershowitz told viewers on Newsmax’s Sunday Report that there is simply no excuse for antisemitism, and he was blunt about where the poison is showing up — on both extremes of our politics. His condemnation was not a timid call for civility but a wake-up shot to conservatives who might be tempted to tolerate bigotry in the name of ratings or outrage.
Dershowitz did not spare high-profile voices on the right, expressly calling out Tucker Carlson and Nick Fuentes and warning that their flirtation with antisemitic talking points risks dragging the Republican Party into the same dark place Pat Buchanan once tried to lead it. He reminded Americans that earlier conservative leaders like Bill Buckley rejected that route, and conservatives today should do the same instead of rationalizing hatred.
He also made the important, uncomfortable point that the hard left has been cultivating its own brand of Jew-hatred by cloaking it in anti-Israel rhetoric, and that both parties must be held accountable. That is a reason every true conservative who believes in American liberty and the rule of law should be ferocious in denouncing antisemitism wherever it appears — not selectively or for political gain.
Conservatives must stop tolerating people who normalize hate for the sake of clicks or culture-war credentials; the Heritage Foundation’s initial defense of Carlson’s tone was the kind of hedging that allows extremists to burrow in. GOP leaders, grassroots activists, and conservative media should make clear: defending America means defending our Jewish neighbors and Israel, and there is no trade-off that justifies appeasing antisemites.
This is not a call for censorship of legitimate debate, but for moral clarity and leadership. When Dershowitz praises leaders like Speaker Mike Johnson for standing with the Jewish people, conservatives should see that as the correct, patriotic posture — strength in defense of allies and zero tolerance for those who traffic in lies and hatred.
If the Republican Party wants to remain the party of freedom, law, and Western civilization, it must act decisively now: cut off platforms for antisemitic extremists, hold leaders and institutions accountable, and rally behind allies like Israel. Dershowitz’s warning should be a rallying cry for hardworking Americans who want their country back from the forces that would tear it apart from within.
