The Biden administration official in charge of prosecuting anti-Semitic attacks, which have skyrocketed in the wake of the Hamas attacks on Israel, has a history of coddling anti-Semitic activists and groups that have condoned the terrorist attack.

Justice Department civil rights chief Kristen Clarke partnered with the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), an anti-Israel group, on a voting rights initiative for Muslim Americans. Clarke has praised Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D., Mich.) and Women’s March organizers Linda Sarsour and Tamika Mallory, left-wing activists with lengthy track records of espousing anti-Semitic views. As a student at Harvard, Clarke organized a speech for Wellesley College professor Tony Martin, who peddled the false claim that a cabal of Jews orchestrated the international slave trade.

Those affiliations could raise questions about Clarke’s appetite for tackling cases of anti-Semitism.
