Evening Edition: Fight Against Anti-Semitism Criticized
May 21, 2025•19 min
Episode description
The Heritage Foundation, an influential conservative think tank in D.C., launched a major effort to fight anti-Semitism last year on the first anniversary of the October 7th terror attack on Israel. Heritage dubbed it "Project Esther', named after a hero in Jewish culture, and it has a focus on shining a light on the support network of the terror group Hamas. It has also influenced the Trump Administration's fight against anti-Semitism, like cutting federal funding to certain universities that haven't done enough to curb anti-Semitism on their campuses, but the project is now being called radical by critics.
FOX’s Eben Brown speaks with Victoria Coates, former deputy national security advisor to President Donald Trump, Victoria Coates is Vice President of the Kathryn and Shelby Cullom Davis Institute for National Security and Foreign Policy at The Heritage Foundation, who says the recent criticisms are political and religious 'hit jobs'.
