    When hateful ideology rises, violence is never far behind. I join in condemning anti-Semitic attacks at home and around the world. We have a responsibility to do everything we can to stop hate in all its forms.

    The recent attacks on the Jewish community are despicable, and they must stop. I condemn this hateful behavior at home and abroad — it’s up to all of us to give hate no safe harbor.
