  1. …Unbeknownst to many, West and Farrakhan have been publicly connected for years. In July 2005, West accepted the “Million Man March Image Award” at the NOI headquarters in Chicago. In 2013, when West first drew attention for antisemitism when he lamented that “Black people don’t have the same level of connections as Jewish people,” Farrakhan defended him and told him not to “bow to pressure to apologize.” Two years later, West took his family to meet Farrakhan, and his song All Day, released that same year, boasted: “Just talked to Farrakhan, that’s sensei.”…

  2. Kanye West released a song on 05/08/25 entitled HH (I am not spelling it out in order to keep my comment from disappearing).

    It is now available only on X (formerly Twitter) after having been banned everywhere else and it still got a total of 6.5 million views by now.

    I am not on X and I am not planning to sign up.

    Think what is going to happen when (not if but when) the economy tanks.

    There needs to be a huge aliyah from the US, Israel at least has an army.

    MAGA HATES JEWS. Wake up and deal with it, folks.

    This is completely false. Do you recall one instance in which Trump referenced the war in Gaza in which a single boo was heard from the crowd? Instead there were resounding applause for Trump’s support of Israel. Notably, I do recall Trump being booed for voicing support the toxic shots on more than one occaision, but never was there any such event in which MAGA supporters shouted down Trump’s assailing comments on Hamas, Hezbollah or Iran. Nor were there people showing up at Trump event wearing anti-Israel shirts or carrying signs calling for Israel to be cut off or attacked. No Jews were ever targeted, isolated or abused at Trump’s MAGA events, and in fact, Jews were welcome to these events.

    Your assertion on this point are simply wrong, unfair, and actually abusive to the greatest philosemitic political movement in American history.

    I think they will say anything to get a rise out of people. I think Trump nailed it, perceptively, when he said he thought West was mentally ill. Joe Rogan is another one. Clearly, so is Owens. They are contrarian exhibitionist drama queens. They are all doing their neo-Nazi dog and pony show because getting ratings by being offensive is their schtick. I don’t think they have any intelligent rational thought processes between them though they’ve learned how to fake that; these sociopaths. What terrifies them is being ignored. Typical products of the era of O’Biden.

    But you’ll never see them offend Muslims because they are cowards who don’t want to be murdered.

    But, that being said, I observed years ago, that when someone I know who claims to be a “friend” suddenly brings up the Liberty incident out of nowhere, I’m dealing with the kind of antisemite who tries to win Jews over to turn them against Israel and Jews, generally. With a friendly smile. Starting about 30 years ago, even total strangers used to come up to me. These people have sensed that our desire to be liked is our achilles heel. This is one of their standard blood libels/tropes. We should be alert for it.

    Of course, just because they are crazy, doesn’t mean they aren’t antisemites. You don’t argue with such people. You deplatform/cancel them. Walk away.

  7. Laura-

    IF the Confederate flag is “offensive to blacks”…as you aver, than so is any mention of “Civil War”…”War between the States… Jubal Early, Jeb Stuart, Braxton Bragg, Stonewall Jackson, Jeff Davis, Richmond,
    Virginia, Moseby, Robert E Lee,
    PLUS every mention of any Civil War battle, Generals on either side,
    Uncle Tom’s Cabin, Harriet Beecher Stowe and a multitude more of names and places.
    What about the word “COTTON”….”BOLL”……”Shenandoah”..?? Stephen Foster songs…..????

    Where would YOU stop??????? What about Honest Abe,?? Grant was an Anti-Semite and kicked Jews out of his camp and of all Union Camps.. The Gettysburg Address…. That Lincoln freed only the slaves of the South whilst retaining slavery in the North for a while.

    I think you’re full of hot air; hatred of everything and your normal modus operandi is lashing out at al and sundry as we so often see in your posts. Knee-Jerker that you are.

  11. Well, since negating a negative produces a positive result, hating hate speech must be love speech, no? I would love to see these nutjobs put in straight jackets and pumped full of drugs to keep them quiet.

  12. I don’t know what world you’re living in, but the confederate flag is highly offensive to blacks since it’s a reminder of slavery. My point was if Kanye saying “heil hitler” amounts to protected free speech as Rogan and others claim, then allowing offensive speech and symbols should be applied across the board, no matter who’s offended. What is your problem with the point I was making? You’re the one sounding nuts. I didn’t say my comment wasn’t hate speech. I do hate Owens. I have the same freedom of speech that she has.

    Laura, you’re absolutely absurd. Since when was the Confederate Falag black, black and black. Yo’re just a nut case.

    BTW

    What part of “I HATE clandace Owens. ” isn’t “HATE speech?

    Meshuganah!!

  15. Throw a confederate flag in her face. If it’s now merely an expression of “free speech” to say “heil hitler”, I guess we are now free to wave confederate flags and say the N word and dress in Klan outfits. Joe Rogan and likeminded scum are complaining that kanye west’s “song” praising hitler is being censored. So, I guess they are ok with what I proposed above.

    I’m thoroughly done with MAGA which is increasingly antisemitic. It’s getting as bad as the democrats.

  16. Furthermore, unlike the narrator, I do not let that former USS Liberty sailor off the hook. Certainly, enough decades have gone by for the trauma to have worn off and for him to judge what happened with rationality. He’s guilty of spreading lies and disinformation for the purpose of smearing the Israelis.

    I’m curious as to why he is so certain it was deliberate. What does that tell us about what the Liberty spy ship was up to? Was it actually spying ON Israel and feeding info to its enemies and he thinks the Israelis caught on? Why is it so difficult to accept that it was an accident and what would be the motive to purposely attack the ship? I think the reaction of the surviving sailors of the USS Liberty says more about them and their mission than it does about the Israelis.

  17. Hi, keelie.

    But the Truth remains the Truth no matter how much individuals fantasize…

    I agree completely with you there.

    As for Candace, Tucker, etc., sometimes I wish they would flat-out label themselves as Nazis, to end the awful confusion that Jews and Christians alike have fallen into; but I will be careful what I wish for here, knowing that this is what happened in Hitler’s day. Everyone was given a clear choice back then, and everyone (but for the grace of God) chose to appease Hitler — even the Jews.

  18. I HATE clandace Owens. She was always a Jew-hater and has merely gone full circle back to her original commie roots before she suddenly became “conservative” for money. That horseshoe theory again. Debbie Schlussel was calling her out long before the rest of the conservative movement caught on to her grift.

  19. It’s an interesting balance. If she considers Jesus (Yehoshua) as being “just another Jew, it explains a lot. Some life decisions are extremely difficult to make, so we now have her joining the Jew-haters of the World…

    Seems that I was mistaken about her as many of us were. Apparently the same goes for Tucker Carlson, her buddy.

    But the Truth remains the Truth no matter how much individuals fantasize…
