Kaelan Deese is a Supreme Court reporter for the Washington Examiner covering the latest happenings at the nation's highest court and the legal issues surrounding Second Amendment rights, abortion, and religious liberties. He previously wrote breaking news as a fellow for the Hill during the 2020 election cycle.
A federal judge is refusing to hire law students as clerks if they've signed onto letters that he says effectively amount to support for Hamas's deadly assault on Israel.
Judge Matthew Solomson of the U.S. Court of Federal Claims made his vow in an Oct. 11 LinkedIn post, saying his decision is moral, not political. His remarks come in response to student groups across the country, including George Washington University, Yale University, Harvard, and Columbia University, that have released statements and held protests in support of Palestinians.
More than 4,000 Israeli and Palestinian people combined have died since Hamas fired thousands of rockets into Israel on Oct. 7. Solomson was appointed by former President Donald Trump and confirmed in January 2020. His decision to blacklist potential applicants who signed letters suggesting Israel should somehow take the blame for the initial attack comes as several business entities on Wall Street have taken similar maneuvers in recent days.The judge's move is similar to actions taken by a popular conservative jurist on the 5th U.S.
