Senator Ted Cruz stood on Mark Levin’s Life, Liberty & Levin this week and told the nation what every patriotic American should already know: we are at a fundamental crossroads when it comes to antisemitism and the character of this country. Cruz didn’t couch his words in platitudes — he warned that indifference and the cowardice of political elites will allow Jew-hatred to metastasize on our campuses, in our streets, and in our culture. This was not a casual observation; this is a call to arms for anyone who believes America still stands for freedom and the protection of minorities.
The senator rightly pointed a finger at the radical left’s growing cheer squad for anti-Israel and antisemitic sentiment, calling out the same forces who cheered “death to the IDF” at foreign festivals and then shrugged when it showed up on American soil. Conservatives have watched for too long as establishment media and Democratic politicians normalize outrage and excuse violence whenever it targets Israel or Jewish Americans. Cruz’s blunt condemnation reminds us that calling out the threat is the first step toward stopping it.
Words alone are not enough, and Cruz has repeatedly backed action over rhetoric — from legislative steps to choke off funding that indirectly enables terror sympathizers, to concrete measures aimed at punishing those who traffic in hate. He joined colleagues in proposing cuts to U.S. funding tied to UN agencies that have been accused of harboring antisemitic practices, reminding Americans that taxpayer dollars shouldn’t subsidize enemies of our values. If Washington refuses to protect the Jewish community, then it’s failing in its most basic duty.
The senator also used the Levin platform to attack the failed foreign-policy instincts that embolden our adversaries and inflame antisemitic mobs, arguing that weakness overseas begets chaos at home. While Democrats dabble in appeasement and hand-wringing, Cruz insists on a posture of strength that deters state and non-state actors alike. This isn’t warmongering; it’s common-sense national security that protects American lives and the liberty of our allies.
Practical steps Cruz urged include denying visas to known antisemites, enforcing existing laws against hate crimes, and holding university administrators accountable when they allow campuses to become breeding grounds for Jew-hatred. The argument that these measures infringe on “speech” is dishonest when that “speech” translates into intimidation, assaults, and the destruction of Jewish life. If the federal government will not act, then state attorneys general and ordinary citizens must step up to defend our neighborhoods and synagogues.
This moment demands leadership from conservatives who understand what’s at stake: the rule of law, the safety of minorities, and the future of Western civilization. Senator Cruz is doing what too few in Washington are willing to do — he’s telling the truth plainly and fighting for concrete policy responses rather than empty condemnations. Americans who love freedom should stand with him, pressure lawmakers, fill the halls of power with principled voices, and push for enforcement of laws that keep hate from taking root.
Make no mistake: the choice before us is stark and simple. Either we defend Jewish Americans, support our ally Israel, and crush the ideology that celebrates their destruction, or we allow a poisonous culture of hatred to rewrite who we are as a nation. Senator Cruz’s warning is a wake-up call — it’s time for patriots to answer, mobilize, and ensure that liberty and decency prevail over cowardice and chaos.
