He also said "there is an appropriate time for the National Guard."
KRAFT CRACKS DOWN: New England Patriots team owner Robert Kraft took aim at Columbia University professors after pulling support for his old school earlier in the week because of the antisemitic violence and protests on campus.

QUOTE OF THE WEEK: "Antisemitic mobs have taken over leading universities. They call for the annihilation of Israel. They attack Jewish students. They attack Jewish faculty.
