In the coming months, lawmakers associated with the Republican Study Committee (RSC), the largest Republican caucus in Congress, will launch oversight investigations into schools like the University of Denver as part of a bid to root out "anti-Semitic and anti-American conspiracy theories," the lawmakers and senior Republican congressional officials told the Free Beacon.
"Anti-Semitic and anti-American conspiracy theories are now widespread in universities and poisoning students' minds," Rep. Jim Banks (R. Ind.), the RSC's chairman and a member of the House Armed Services Committee, told the Free Beacon, pointing to Hashemi's comments as a prime example of the bias he intends to investigate. "Next Congress, House Republicans must exercise oversight on professors promoting the Iranian regime's anti-Semitic propaganda and reform higher ed."
"Universities are so rotten that professors who state scientific truths about gender are more likely to lose their jobs than those who make anti-Semitic smears," Banks said.
