211 days since the October 7 massacre in southern Israel and the opening of the War in Gaza, GOP leaders vowed to go on the offensive with regards to anti-Israel protests across college campuses in America.

According to an Axios report, House of Representatives Speaker Mike Johnson told the news outlet that Republicans are preparing a slew of measures to stem the violence and destruction on college campuses. Johnson said the GOP would be chairing a number of committees that would attempt to take funding away from campuses hosting anti-Israeli rallies and strip international students supporting Hamas of their student visas.

"Students who sympathize with groups like Hamas, designated by the US as a terrorist organization, don't have a right to be in the country," said the speaker.

Republicans hope that support for Israel will prove a "unifying factor" in this divisive time, while progressive Democrats such as Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) have slammed efforts to rail behind Israel.
