Jewish Voice for Peace condemns Trump executive order targeting pro-Palestinian activists

JVP
Jewish Voice for Peace (JVP) has sharply condemned an executive order signed by US President Donald Trump, which paves the way for the deportation of pro-Palestinian student activists.
The progressive, anti-Zionist group decried the move as part of Trump’s “violent crusade” against free speech and political dissent.
“We are disgusted by Trump’s reported plans to continue his violent crusade aimed at gutting freedom and democracy,” JVP stated on X, describing the action as a “vile” attempt to silence opposition to US-backed Israeli actions in Gaza.
The organization also accused Trump and right-wing groups of using concerns over anti-Semitism to push a political agenda.
“Trump, the far-right, and ultra-conservative groups like the Heritage Foundation have never protected Jewish people; they are not concerned with Jewish safety,” JVP argued, asserting that the true focus lies on suppressing political opposition.
