Guests attending this year’s Jewish Leadership Conference in New York City had to wade through dozens of protesters who lined the street outside of Chelsea Pier Sixty as the event kicked off Sunday. But the hostile reception didn’t cow the speakers, including Florida governor Ron DeSantis and former secretary of state Mike Pompeo.
The event is hosted by the Tikvah Fund, a conservative Jewish nonprofit. In an interview with Tikvah Fund chairman Elliott Abrams, Pompeo was unsparing as he slammed the tolerance of American institutions toward Chinese influence.
