In a stunning display of disconnect, Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff praised the Biden administration's fight against antisemitism at the White House Chanukah party - even as Jewish Americans face unprecedented threats on college campuses and city streets across the nation.
The jarring speech left Jewish leaders and activists reeling. "HAHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA," Harvard alumnus Shabbos Kestenbaum responded mockingly, pointing to Columbia University's transformation into what he called a "Hitler youth fest."
Activist Eyal Yakoby noted the bizareness of the situation: "You can't make this up," he wrote, blasting Emhoff's claims while noting that antisemitism has skyrocketed to historic highs under Biden's watch.
Adding salt to the wound, Breitbart's Joel Pollak delivered a scathing response: "How? By sending money to genocidal antisemitic terrorists?"
The administration's priorities came under further fire when, in the midst of surging antisemitism, the White House unveiled a new strategy to combat... Islamophobia. The timing left many questioning whether the administration truly understands the crisis facing American Jews.
Making matters worse, reports have surfaced linking Emhoff's own daughter to fundraising activities that critics say supported Hamas terror operations - a stunning revelation that makes his self-congratulatory speech all the more controversial.
