GOOD QUESTION: Why Isn’t The White House Calling Antisemitic Threats “Domestic Terrorism”?


Fox News anchor Kayleigh McEnany ripped the White House on Wednesday for not categorizing antisemitic threats as “domestic terrorism.” During a segment on “Outnumbered,” McEnany voiced her concern over the recent global rise in antisemitism and questioned why the White House isn’t labeling the culprits appropriately.

Fox News correspondent Peter Doocy was shown in a clip questioning spokesman John Kirby on how the White House classifies individuals making violent antisemitic threats in the U.S. Kirby responded, stating he wasn’t aware of such individuals being categorized as “domestic terrorists,” and suggested the issue would be best addressed by law enforcement.

In a subsequent clip, Doocy probed press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre about the labeling of protestors who allegedly make Jewish students feel unsafe on college campuses. She responded by saying the White House has been “very clear” about their stance on antisemitic incidents.

“You know, I don’t get it,” McEnany reacted to the clips, speaking to Fox contributor and Democratic strategist Kevin Walling. “The DOJ has arrested a student who published a threat to stab and slit the throat of any Jewish males he sees on campus, and to rape and throw off a cliff any Jewish females, and to behead any Jewish babies. That seems like an extremist to me, and a domestic terrorist!”

“It’s 100 percent extremist, 100 percent domestic terrorist,” Walling replied. “He should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law, the student at Cornell University.”

“Why won’t the White House say it?” McEnany asked.

“Well, they should,” Walling said. “And the president has been, I think, very clear. When he was in Israel, on that trip, and since then before, multiple audiences condemning this antisemitism. We need to call it out as extremism.”

  1. BECAUSE IT DOESN’T FIT THE NARRATIVE!!!
    It must be a WHITE heterosexual Republican male protesting at their school board meetings against forced inculcation of their 3 year old daughter to homosexuality and Heather has 2 Mommies! Being forced to learn about Critical Race Theory! It’s okay for a boy to be a girl and a girl to be a boy! If you God forbid protest against this filth and deviancy being shoved down your child’s throat, YOU ARE A DOMESTIC TERRORIST! Thank you to Merrick Garland, Chris Wray, and Alejandro Mayorkas for dragging this once great Nation down to the toilet of Sedom! Jewish lives and Jewish blood are worthless to these democrat lowlife cesspool swamp creatures.

  2. Are any threats categorized as terrorism? It’s my impression that only actual attacks are categorized that way, not mere terroristic threats.

  3. Many of these feces arent even muslim or pro hamas just plain old anti semitez

    They’re not pro-Palestine, they just hate Jews, and they see this moment as an opportunity to get attention, get coverage, put their banners, their images, their ideas, into reporting patterns,” said Jon Lewis, a research fellow at George Washington University’s Program on Extremism, told VICE News of the recent displays by brazen antisemites. “Nine out of ten of them would probably happily commit a hate crime against anyone [at the pro-Palestine protest].”

  4. Biden is a good for nothing he does whatever is politically expedient he stands for nothing and is a redneck racist and anti semite. In addition Obama calls the shots.

  5. Well they sure call “extremism” when a Jew in the Shomron shoots an Arab trying to kill him with a big rock.
    Telling Netanyahu to “reign in “extremist settlers.””

  6. The term “domestic terrorism” is a two-edged sword….it technically is not a defined term under the criminal code and is a trigger word for right wing MAGA republicans who believe the FBI is being used to target their chassidim. A Navy Admiral who is not an attorney is smart to avoid using words that have no legal meaning and will simply describe the specific events or threats in lay terms.

  7. Advocacy of a political position is not illegal.

    The person at Cornell is being prosecuted under an anti-terrorism statute.

    Biden is the first American president to order American troops to engage in combat n order to help Israel (when they shot down Iranian missile fired from Yemen). He also has the problem that a large part of his party support anti-Semitism and cheer genocide directed against Jews (the Democrats had a similar problem with southern whites supporting persecution and random terror against Blacks, and unlike the Republicans who consistently supported civil rights, the Democrats ignored it for 80 years, roughly 1865-1945); one should note that many frum politicians in New York are still Democrats.

  8. Just to be clear. He is being charged for violating long-standing provisions of the Federal Communications Act. There is currently no explicit provision governing “domestic terrorism” providing for prosecutions in the same way current laws explicitly allow for prosecution of foreign terrorism. The DOJ release announcing the arrest and charges stated as follows:

    “Patrick Dai, age 21, a junior at Cornell University who is originally from Pittsford, New York, was arrested today on a federal criminal complaint charging him with posting threats to kill or injure another using interstate communications. The announcement was made by United States Attorney Carla B. Freedman….”
