Anti-Semitism Rocks Congressional Race in Tennessee – By Adam Kredo (Washington Free Beacon) / April 20, 2022
An anti-Semitic remark made by a Tennessee state lawmaker who successfully campaigned to remove Morgan Ortagus, a Trump-endorsed Jewish candidate, from the primary ballot has the former State Department spokeswoman up in arms.
The Republican state senator who led the charge to get Ortagus booted from the primary ballot said only Jewish people in Trump’s orbit—his daughter, Ivanka Trump, and son-in-law, Jared Kushner—would care about their campaign to boot her from the ballot.
“I don’t think Trump cares one way or the other,” State Senator Frank Niceley said in an interview last month in defense of removing Ortagus from the ballot. “I think Jared Kushner—he’s Jewish, she’s Jewish—I think Jared will be upset. Ivanka will be upset. I don’t think Trump cares.”
