Leo Terrell: Inside Trump’s DOJ war on antisemitism

WATCH: “Standpoint” with Gabe Groisman and guest Leo Terrell

The Trump administration is taking the fight against antisemitism head-on.

Gabe Groisman interviews Leo Terrell, a veteran civil-rights attorney, Fox News commentator and now senior adviser at the U.S. Department of Justice under Attorney General Pam Bondi.

Terrell pulls back the curtain on the federal government’s battle to protect Jewish Americans from rising hatred and bigotry on college campuses, as well as in workplaces and the streets of major cities. From Title VI and Title VII enforcement to hate-crimes prosecutions, Terrell explains how the DOJ is using every legal tool to hold universities, institutions and individuals accountable.

He reveals why U.S. President Donald Trump’s executive order on campus antisemitism was a turning point; how the former Biden administration let cases stall; and why only aggressive enforcement can guarantee any real change.

Terrell also shares why the struggle to protect Jewish Americans matters for all Americans, drawing on his own experience as a black attorney and civil-rights advocate, honoring the historic alliance between black and Jewish communities.

Gabe Groisman is an attorney, government affairs consultant and founder of Groisman, LLC. He is the former mayor of Bal Harbour, Fla., and host of the podcast “Standpoint with Gabe Groisman.”
