The masks have really been coming off since Oct 7.
Rep. Nadler, one of the most malignantly dishonest anti-Israel figures in Congress, first put on a defense of campus antisemitism.
“To be clear, I am deeply concerned about rising incidents of antisemitism in our nation’s institutions of higher education,” Rep. Nadler began. Then he argued that “threatening to pull federal funding from the universities and college campuses that need our help the most is, at best, wildly counterproductive” and “Congress doesn’t cut funding to universities when individual students on campus use vile racist or homophobic speech.”
Now, Nadler recruited Rep. Raskin and Rep. Goldman to join him in a defense of what he calls ‘anti-zionism’. They urged voting present on a resolution presented by Rep. Max Miller which condemns antisemitism, lists multiple incidents and describes them as part of a pattern that demolishes the supposed distinction between ‘antisemitism’ and ‘antizionism.’
The resolution ultimately passed 311 to 14 with 13 Democrats and Rep. Massie voting against it, and 92 Democrats, including Rep. Nadler, Raskin and Goldman, voting present.
The press release may have all three names on it, but it’s blatantly the work of Nadler and contains his patented cynical arguments like claiming that “the Satmar sect, a Hasidic Jewish movement, which remains staunchly anti-Zionist and quite obviously is not antisemitic.”
The Satmar movement is biblically Zionist, it is not politically Zionist. It rejects the current State of Israel, not the idea of a Jewish State, which no Jewish religious group could do.
It’s also a distraction and besides the point.
Rep. Nadler has a history of trying to cloak his attacks on Israel in Jewish garb, of trying to normalize his hostility to Israel by making procedural and technical objections.
But it’s becoming more and more obvious what his true objection is.
Taylor says
Nadler is scum. Jews who voted for Goldman—most of them in his newly created district—are worse than Nadler.
Jeff Bargholz says
I don’t know how many Jew could vote for Goldman and I don’t know how many human being at all could vote for Nadler.
Jeff Bargholz says
“Any,” not “Many.” I HATE the automatic spell check. It’s constantly faulty.
John says
Who We Are:
“An online conservative political website edited by David Horowitz, FrontPageMag has been in
continuous operation for nearly two decades.”
I would rather fight over Prop. 13
Please get back to the conservative mission of tax policy, etc, and not the religious missionary one.
Ugly Sid says
We hadn’t realized your preferences had been left unattended.
Mister Horowitz has been shown the lash and threatened with the appropriate flogging.
Keep us current upon your sentiments. We’re keeping the old conman on a short leash.
Jeff Bargholz says
Both subjects are important, and many more. A single subject website would bore people to sleep and fail.
Frank says
Nadler has a history of obesity and resorted to surgery to control it. It reminded me of Greg Gutfeld observing in one of his books that, when he was in college, the leftist activists who wanted to change the world had the messiest dorm rooms.
Jeff Bargholz says
Nadler could lose plenty of weight by having his fat head cut off. It would improve Congress and aesthetics, too.
Jeff Bargholz says
What the Hell is Nadler, anyway? I can’t tell if he’s a toad, a gnome or the Penguin after Batman punched his pointy nose and monocle off.
Angel Jacob says
Just imagine saying people of [any nation] have no right to live in their country.
And then saying it doesn’t mean they hate the people of that nation.
Intrepid says
Who are the people that keep re-electing Rep. Poop-My-Pants? I hope that the Jews in his district abandon this clown and put some one who is, at minimum, pro Israel.
“The resolution ultimately passed 311 to 14 with 13 Democrats and Rep. Massie voting against it, and 92 Democrats, including Rep. Nadler, Raskin and Goldman, voting present.”
It takes no guts to vote present. It’s the coward’s way out of a sticky situation. I hope all of the worms who voted against this resolution are primaried or lose outright in November.
Kasandra says
Unfortunately, Raskin is my congresscritter. I would not have expected anything more from him. Next we’ll be seeing him sporting a kaffiya. Like his parents who founded the Institute for Policy Studies, which never found a Communist regime it didn’t worship, he’s a far Leftist.
Bryan says
1) There has probably never been a more oppressed, yet still existing, people than the Jewish people. Yet they keep coming back stronger and stronger. This bothers the left because it shows what a minority can do with effort and disrupts their affirmative action principle. If other minorities learned from them, the Dems would lose a lot of their power. (Similar also applies to Asians.)
2) The “education” institutions he is defending are crucial to grooming leftists.
