When Balint’s time expired, and the out lawmaker yielded back, Bondi asked for a moment to respond, and used it to go on the offensive: “You didn’t ask Merrick Garland anything about Epstein,” she said. Balint shot back: “Weak sauce.”
Bondi then escalated: “And with this anti-Semitic culture right now, she voted against a resolution …”
Balint cut her off: “Oh really? Do you want to go there, attorney general?” she said. “Talking about antisemitism to a woman who lost her grandfather in the Holocaust?”
The lawmaker then got up and left the room.
What does being a lesbian have to do with anything?
The LGBT were one of the targeted groups by the Nazis as far back as the 1920s. So, saying someone who’d be double-targeted by the Nazis and who’s grandparents were actually targeted by the Nazis for being Jewish was being antisemitic is so ironic its moronic.
The irony is in you reaching so far. The thing about “antisemitism” is that its used as a BS attack strategy so much that even people with no care in the world for semites whip it out on a attack card as a disposable and pointless slap. You really think Trump and Bondi care about Jewish people?
Or that “antisemitism” is about anything but zionists shouting down people who despise the crimes of the state of Israel?
Or that zionists care about lesbians? Homeosexusality and zionism are utterly unrelated concepts, with canyons of base meaning between them, and borrowing them for backing is a level of cynicism that is borderline insulting to whomever its attempted with. One is rooted in universal basic human rights and the other is rooted in a complete disavowal of human rights along with the practice of violent fascist supremacy.
