Antisemitism and lookism all in one post... Loomer is awful but why stoop so low when there are so many less ugly ways to criticize her?

What does him being a Jew have to do with it?

Yeah, good question. Antisemitism at its finest.

This is nothing more than a continuation of the president’s desperate weaponization of our justice system.

I am not fearful — I am fearless.

We will fight these baseless charges aggressively, and my office will continue to fiercely protect New Yorkers and their rights..

Since many of you are distracted by other things or not following any Jewish media, you should know that today, on one of the holiest days of the year, a man drove his car into a crowd gathering to go into a Synagogue in Manchester then got out and started stabbing people. Two people are dead.

"We are speaking on behalf of hundreds of NIH staff who are standing up together to say: WE DISSENT.

I am so scared about doing this but I am trying to be brave for my kids because it's only gonna get harder to speak up."

Thank you to Dr. Jenna Norton and NIH scientists for your courage!

You are watching “Globalize the Intifada.”

SPEAK OUT AGAINST THIS NOW!

BREAKING. Another antisemitic attack. 🤬
A Jewish group at a peaceful event for the hostages was attacked by a man who threw Molotov cocktails while raving about “Zionists”, burning innocent people.

Your reckless words incite violence. Denounce this hatred with your whole chest, America!!

Speak up about the targeted attacks on Jews in America and elsewhere. Whatever your politics, beliefs about the Israeli government - nothing justifies violent attacks against civilians. If you’re not speaking out, you’re helping to normalize it.

Disguised as a landscaper, a terrorist threw Molotov cocktails at Jewish people peacefully walking in Boulder for Israeli hostages. Several, including children, were burned. The suspect was arrested on the scene. Officials say this was a targeted terror attack. This is antisemitic hate—full stop.

I have been thinking the same thing. They look like Proud Boys, or January 6 insurrectionists. It's horrifying.

Holy shit.

“I confess that I’ve been inadequate. That the Democrats have been responsible for allowing the rise of this demagogue.”

Gives an impassioned apology and points to this as a moment of personal vow to action.

Booker: "I confess that I have been imperfect. I confess that I've been inadequate to the moment. I've confess that the Democratic Party has made terrible mistakes that gave a lane to this demagogue. I confess we all must look in the mirror and say 'we will do better.'"

Putting horns on a Jew? I expected better of you. Antisemitism is unacceptable. Shame on you. Blocking you and reporting this.

Trump bullied him, said antisemitic things about him, and he caved. What a coward. Congratulations on this reward, @schumer.senate.gov. Hope it was worth selling out your constituents.
