Staff Reports
White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre has had a rough week, folks. She’s in hot water for not speaking out strongly against anti-Semitism during Monday’s press briefing. Now, she’s claiming she misheard the question. Come on, Karine! There were so many questions about anti-Semitism that day, you can’t blame it on a hearing problem!
But hey, maybe we shouldn’t be surprised by Jean-Pierre’s lackluster response. The NYPD released hate crime statistics on Tuesday, and guess what? Since October 9, there have been 51 reported hate crimes in the city, and a whopping 30 of them were against Jews. That’s right, folks, anti-Semitism is on the rise, and it’s hitting New York hard.
Now, you might think this would be a wake-up call for the Biden administration. But oh no, they’re still pushing their narrative that targeting Muslims is just as important as combating anti-Semitism. The Gothamist reported that during the same time period, there were only three anti-Muslim hate crimes, compared to the 30 anti-Semitic ones. But hey, who needs facts when you’re trying to pander to a certain demographic, right?
And let’s not forget about Jean-Pierre’s remark during Tuesday’s press briefing, where she once again lumped anti-Semitism and Islamophobia together. Sorry, Karine, but the numbers don’t lie. According to FBI statistics released earlier this year, Jews experience over five times more hate crimes than Muslims. But hey, why let the truth get in the way of a good narrative?
But according to the White House, Muslims face a disproportionate amount of hate crimes. https://t.co/ktjm39SqCW

It’s not just Jean-Pierre who’s getting called out for this nonsense. The Biden administration and their allies in the mainstream media are all pushing this false equivalence between anti-Semitism and Islamophobia. They’re trying to tie the two concerns together, even though the numbers clearly show that anti-Semitism is a much bigger problem. But hey, it’s all part of their strategy to increase outreach to Muslim and Arab Americans, right?
Personally, I think Jean-Pierre’s excuse that she misheard the question is laughable. It’s clear that she just doesn’t want to condemn anti-Semitism, especially when it’s coming from the far-left radicals who seem to have taken over the Democratic Party. Just listen to Senator Ted Cruz and Ben Ferguson on their podcast “The Verdict.” They’re not buying Jean-Pierre’s weak explanation either. They’re calling her out for failing to unequivocally denounce anti-Semitism and for siding with the radicals against the people of Israel and American Jews. And you know what? They’re absolutely right.
So let’s not let the Biden administration off the hook here, folks. They can’t hide behind excuses and false narratives. It’s time for them to take a strong stance against anti-Semitism and ensure that law enforcement resources are in place to protect Jewish Americans. Because right now, the Jewish community is feeling the effects of this hatred, and it’s up to our leaders to address it head-on. Let’s hope they start listening.
