florida who is a member of the appropriations committee. welcome to the program. >> good to be with you. host: the president gave a speech about anti-semitism saying there is a ferocious rise of anti-semitism in this country. do you agree with him? guest: i do. in my own home in jacksonville we have seen an uptick in anti-semitism. i've seen that over the years. but i do have to say i don't think i've seen it at the level it is today. where in jacksonville they were literally projecting anti-semitic messages onto buildings with some kind of laser. i've never seen anything like it. hanging banners over the interstate overpass.

they fill up these little bags with rice and put anti-semitic notes inside and then drive down the street and just throw them on people's driveways and they pick it up going what is this and they read the note. there's just all kinds of hate out there. host: we were talking in our first hour about those notes, those messages, are they anti-israel, so against the war in gaza, against israel's policy , or is it against jews and advocating violence against jewish people? guest: it's advocating violence against jewish people. the ones that i was dealing with didn't have anything to do with gaza because that hadn't happened yet but these messages were up recently, that -- that -- they weren't calling for

trespassed from their property for three years. what that means is if you are a student, your college career is over. host: and you think that's proper? these are just young adults that are trying to say that they are against the war in gaza. guest: they are inciting violence and many of them as you know are not even students. they are actually from outside the community. some are in the community but -- i think that's one of the things we have to get to the bottom of, i don't think -- this is sort of the summer of 2020, the summer of love they call it when cities were burning across america and all the rioting with the black lives matter, the antifa, those things have to be stopped quickly otherwise they just continue to spread like that. host: back to campus you think there's a role for the national guard or do you think it should
