The Department of Justice is investigating whether there is a pattern of discrimination against Jewish professors, faculty members, and employees at the University of California.

The action comes following President Trump's announcement that he will cut off federal funding to any college, school or university that allows illegal protests.

In a statement to the media, the University of California emphasized its unwavering commitment to combating anti-Semitism and protecting the civil rights of all.

At the same time, it was reported that Trump decided to cancel $400 million in grants to Columbia University, claiming that it had not taken sufficient steps to combat anti-Semitism on campus since the Hamas attack on October 7.
