WASHINGTON — Education Secretary Linda McMahon said Tuesday that Columbia University must “comply” with its public commitments to rein in anti-Israel activism to regain $400 million in recently axed federal funding — after the school’s interim president reportedly privately watered down her public commitment to crack down on face masks. McMahon did not directly comment on the alleged doublespeak by Katrina Armstrong, but said that Columbia is not fast-tracked to regain the funding as the administration ensures it keeps its word. “My answer is pretty simple,” McMahon told a journalist who asked, “What happens if it emerges that Columbia is not meeting the demands and complying with the agreements that they said they would?” “They have to abide and comply with the terms that we have set down and [we’ve] talked with them and they’ve agreed to,” McMahon told a small group of reporters over breakfast at the Education Department’s headquarters near Capitol Hill.
