Former second gentleman Doug Emhoff got some pretty brutal news from President Trump on Tuesday: You're fired. Emhoff, along with a slew of other high-profile Democrats, was summarily dismissed from his role on the board that oversees the US Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington, DC.

...

“Today, I was informed of my removal from the United States Holocaust Memorial Council. Let me be clear: Holocaust remembrance and education should never be politicized. To turn one of the worst atrocities in history into a wedge issue is dangerous — and it dishonors the memory of six million Jews murdered by Nazis that this museum was created to preserve,” Emhoff said in a statement to The Hill.

“No divisive political decision will ever shake my commitment to Holocaust remembrance and education or to combatting hate and antisemitism. I will continue to speak out, to educate, and to fight hate in all its forms—because silence is never an option,” he added.

Here’s the thing, though, about Emhoff’s claim that the dismissals were politically motivated: The now-dismissed slate of lefty politicos were appointed by Joe Biden on his way out of the White House. Yes, the appointments were made on January 17, 2025, in what can only be described as a last-minute, overtly political attempt to stack the Holocaust Museum board with leftists.

Emhoff is ignorant of Judaism he couldn’t explain Hanukkah.

You guys already politicized it. You turn everything into politics. Just stop it.

Emhoff is typical of self-important people who get appointed to multiple do-nothing "boards". He lost one of his sources of income. Rice, Joe and Jill were also following the gravy train pattern.
