Pastor John Hagee Draws The Line: Christians, Jews Must Stand Together Against Antisemitism

In a fierce attack on the pervasive antisemitism that has permeated some parts of the American political Right, Pastor John Hagee, the founder and chairman of Christians United for Israel, declared, “If a line must be drawn, let it be drawn around Christians and Jews together. We are spiritual brethren.”

Writing in the Jewish News Syndicate, Hagee began by recalling the time when his daughter Sandra warned the House Judiciary Committee nearly ten years ago, “The lessons learned in classrooms today become the policies in the public square tomorrow.”

“Since then, the normalization of Jew-hatred in academia that she described has become an all-out war in the public square today,” Hagee noted. “Is it OK to platform bigots unchallenged? Does one apply a realpolitik or a strictly utilitarian approach to the dramatic and vital world of politics?”

“Not if you call yourself a Christian,” he asserted. “It’s just that simple.”

Turning to the antisemitic voices on the Right, he continued, “We have long said in the United States that we stand with God and country, but unfortunately, there are many loud voices right now ignoring the former and betraying the latter.”

“In America, Bible-believing Christians must not allow themselves to be deceived into thinking that being a conservative or a Republican or a supporter of the MAGA movement is on the same plane as their faith,” he warned. “It is not. Nothing in this world, or the next, trumps the word of God.”

“Today, Adolf Hitler’s modern philosophical offspring are following a familiar playbook,” he charged. “They hurl against the Jewish people no less than the charge of killing Christ, sinfully ignoring Jesus himself who said: “No man takes my life from me; I lay it down willingly” (John 10:18). As such, anyone who tries to blame any people group for the death of Christ is merely telling the world that they themselves are not a Christian — for they do not believe in his sacrificial and substitutionary death.”

“Likewise, modern bowtie-wearing bigots preach variations of replacement theology, effectively claiming that God has turned his back on the Jews,” he stated. “This backwards ideology — that the Jews have been replaced in the eyes of God — is as false as it is soaked in blood. God is not a promise breaker. Our faith, our world — in fact, our very existence — relies, above all else, upon the steadfastness of God’s word. As such, if you do not believe that the Jewish people have a unique relationship with God, as is written in the word, then you are not a Christian.”

He then got specific: “I have many friends who are not Christian, but none bastardize my faith under any circumstances — let alone in pursuit of online exposure, clicks and cash. To quote slain Conservative activist Charlie Kirk, blaming the Jews for everything… is demonic, and it is from the pit of hell and it should not be tolerated.’ Such people are wicked. Far-right political commentators and podcasters Nick Fuentes, Steve Bannon, Candace Owens, Tucker Carlson and their ilk will be called to account for every mind they poison.”

“For those who follow the Bible, we have faith and know that the exceptionalism of any country, including America (and therefore, the inevitable demise of any country), is rooted in the blessing and cursing set forth in Genesis 12:3. This is not a platitude. It is a promise seen throughout the Word of God from beginning to end. The Bible promises it, and history has proven it,” he said, in reference to God’s promise to the Biblical patriarch Abraham, the progenitor of the Jewish and Christian faiths, stating, “I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curses you I will curse; and all peoples on earth will be blessed through you.”

“As I have said for decades, ‘if a line must be drawn, let it be drawn around Christians and Jews together. We are spiritual brethren.’ The line has been drawn. Now is the time for choosing,” he said bluntly.

He concluded:

Every person who claims to share the Christian faith should know, you will be reminded by our Father in Heaven, that what you did for the least of His Brethren, the sons of Israel, the Jewish people, you did for me (Matthew 25:40). And lest anyone forget, there is no expiration date on God’s unambiguous warning, “Dare not touch my anointed ones, and do my prophets no harm.” (Psalms 105:15)

The inconvenient truth is that the Jewish people did not choose this greatness; God chose it for them. So don’t take it out on them; take it up with God.

In the meantime, they will forever remain chosen and cherished, and millions of Bible-believing Christians in America will continue to stand alongside them.

Trump Admin Accuses Boston Of Illegal Race-Based Housing Policies

The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) has launched a sweeping civil rights investigation into the city of Boston, accusing Democratic Mayor Michelle Wu’s administration of implementing housing policies that unlawfully favor black, Latino, and other minority residents. The probe, announced Thursday, represents one of the most aggressive federal interventions yet in the Trump administration’s broader effort to dismantle local diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) initiatives it argues violate anti-discrimination law.

In a sharply worded letter to Wu, HUD’s Office of Fair Housing and Equal Opportunity said, “The context of race, fair housing is not about ‘the absence of racial discrimination . . . but the presence of deliberate systems . . . to achieve and sustain racial equity.’ But this is wrong. The text of the Fair Housing Act is unmistakably focused on eliminating discrimination in the housing market and outlining the penalties for engaging in this kind of discrimination.”

Assistant Secretary Craig Trainor wrote to Wu, “At your office’s direction, however, City officials have set out to smuggle ‘racial equity into every layer of operations in City government.’” The letter added, “City Officials Have Enthusiastically Embraced and Appear to Have Implemented the City’s Proposed Racial Spoils System.”

HUD Secretary Scott Turner echoed that language, calling Boston’s approach a “social engineering project” driven by DEI ideology rather than legitimate housing needs. “This warped mentality will be fully exposed,” Turner said, vowing the city would be brought into compliance with federal law. Turner has previously criticized what he calls race-based policymaking and, earlier this week, blamed former President Joe Biden for housing pressures tied to immigration, citing HUD’s newly released “Worst Case Housing Needs” report.

At issue are several city housing plans—most notably the Boston Housing Strategy 2025, the Assessment of Fair Housing, and the Anti-Displacement Action Plan—which call for targeted outreach to black and Latino families, increased lending in communities of color, and allocations of homeownership opportunities intended “particularly” for BIPOC households. One goal states that 65 percent of city-supported homeownership opportunities should go to BIPOC residents. HUD argues that these provisions constitute explicit racial preferences prohibited under federal civil rights law and past Supreme Court precedent that rejects “outright racial balancing.”

HUD’s letter also criticizes Boston’s use of racially based data tools, including maps that classify neighborhoods partly by racial composition to identify areas at “high risk” of displacement and thus eligible for more city investment. The department said these classifications revive the logic of “government-sponsored redlining,” even if intended to combat inequity. It further alleges that city agencies and nonprofit partners have implemented “race-conscious marketing and buyer selection,” and that Boston has pressured banks and developers to adopt race-based benchmarks.

The investigation reflects the Trump administration’s broader shift in civil rights enforcement, which has increasingly targeted DEI programs while cutting back on traditional fair housing oversight.

HUD will request documents from the city within 10 days, after which investigators may file formal discrimination charges or refer the case to the Justice Department.
