I am absolutely shocked that antisemites posted more antisemitic content given extent to which their previous antisemitism has been ignored or whitewashed.
It will only get worse until the press holds them accountable and forces senior leaders in their Party to speak up.
Even the NYT had to take a bunch of crap for posting exactly this type of cartoon to the point where they declared they would stop printing political cartoons. Ask yourself why 2 Reps publishing something similar is almost guaranteed to get ignored and excused?
Media completely ignored that they planned their trip with a group that promotes neo-Nazis, blood libels, and terrorists so why would they hesitate to share a cartoon rom a well-known antisemitic cartoonist implying Jews are trying to silence them?
Seriously, next time you see a member of the media tweet their concern about rising bigotry on the right, go search their timeline for comments about Tlaib and Omar.
If they have said nothing, tell them to go stuff it.

Vice President Selina Meyer: “It is time for us to do what we have been doing. And that time is every day. Every day it is time for us to agree that there are things and tools that are available to us to slow this thing down”
“We will work together, and continue to work together, to address these issues, to tackle these challenges, and to work together as we continue to work operating from the new norms, rules, and agreements, that we will convene to work together..”
If you’re surprised that Candace Owens is now downplaying and whatabouting Hitler’s crimes, then you haven’t been paying attention.
She has signaled for some time that she thinks America was wrong to take on Hitler in WWII.
She literally doesn’t actually know anything about history or any of these topics. She just picks up random facts/claims on Nazi websites now and runs with them to justify her idiotic narratives. And any time anyone points it out, she just claims she is a victim being silenced.
But don’t worry. It’s not just pro-Hitler, antisemitic, and anti-American conspiracies. She also doesn’t believe in dinosaurs and isn’t sure if the world is round.
I tried to warn people about this scumbag grifter for years. Should have listened.
That janitor, who changed his story repeatedly, was the main prosecution witness despite being found with blood on him. A mob demanded a conviction and then lynched Leo Frank based on it.
A witness came forward years later to confirm that Conley had been carrying the victim’s body and threatened him into silence at the time.
Read the details of The Tennessean investigation in to the case that eventually led to a posthumous pardon of Leo Frank:
Candace Owens is so desperate to smear Jews that she’s covering for an actual pedophile and killed in this case.t.co/62MWqDz5vl
Just to be clear, Conley didn’t even deny disposing of Mary Phagan’s body. He just claimed that Leo Frank made him do it.
But it was obvious he was lying at the time because he said him and Frank took an elevator from the second floor to the basement with the body, but there was proof the elevator hadn’t gone to the basement that day.
Then this witness said he saw just Conley with Phagan’s body on the first floor. Conley threatened him so he stayed quiet.
The police ended up arresting several suspects, but Leo Frank was the easiest to pin it on because he was last seen with Phagan. But the only real evidence against him was the testimony of the likely actual killer. There was a mob that formed outside the courthouse demanding they convict someone. Then they lynched Frank. It one of the clearest cases of a historical wrongful conviction imaginable.
Of course none of that matters to Candace Owens, who is on a crusade just to smear Jews regardless of the facts.
I hope anyone who ever defended her realizes now the monster they created.
This isn’t a one-off mistake. Owens now spends all of her time posting nonsensical historical smears related to Jews.
All of her claims, including this one, are basically sourced from random white nationalists.
Let me make it easy for those interested in the truth or who have been denying that these mobs are motivated by anti-Semitism or support for terrorism. Here is a short thread with just some of the direct evidence. I will just focus on the protests at and around Columbia:
As @jonathanchait pointed out, the main 2 groups behind the protests, SJP and WOL, have both openly expressed support for terrorism. Both groups have defended the 10/7 attack where Hamas massacred numerous innocent people:
The main student organizer of the Columbia protests is on video saying he believes “Zionists do not deserve to live” and was on video directing other students to expel 3 Jewish students who simply walked into the area:
