In a scathing new critique, billionaire Bill Ackman, known for his former support of the Democratic party, expressed his strong disapproval of President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris regarding their handling of the October 7th massacre in Israel.
Ackman argued that their incredibly weak response to the Hamas terrorists responsible for the attacks has had a detrimental impact on the safety of Americans.
Ackman was one of the first to address the concerning issue of anti-Semitism on college campuses, including Harvard University.
In a recent post, he pointed out that the Biden-Harris administration has shown little initiative in addressing this problem.
“Consider that Hamas chose to execute an American hostage with a bullet to the back of his head during the last two or three days (along with five other hostages) whose parents just spoke at the DNC less than two weeks ago, while hostage negotiations were underway,”Ackman wrote.
“Consider that the U.S. strategy over the last 330 days has been to pressure Israel to achieve a ceasefire in Gaza, including through the withholding of weapons from @Israel, and by periodically leaking our failure to support our ally to the media in the midst of hostage negotiations. Consider what pressure if any the U.S. has brought to bear on Hamas and our friends in the region who harbor Hamas’ leadership?” he continued.

“Biden (who has been on vacation for 16 days) and @KamalaHarris, who also just skipped a ceremony at Arlington Cemetery to honor 13 fallen soldiers from the failed Afghanistan withdrawal, along with their advisers in the DNC, believe they will lose important votes in certain key swing states and from Hamas supporters on campuses,” he added.
“The United States should have put more pressure on our other allies in the region to help, and done everything we can to help Israel defeat Hamas and recover the hostages, but unfortunately this was not good politics for Biden/Harris and some of their supporters,” Ackman concluded.
