Ha! I won’t disagree with that. But there’s at least one exception, Harriet Tubman. She was a pistol-packing, 2A-believing Republican.

Daily Wire personality Candace Owens endorsed a centuries-old conspiracy theory about Jewish rabbis drinking the blood of Christians on X last week.
Owens has emerged as an outspoken critic of Israel — and then later the Jewish people — in the aftermath of the October 7 terrorist attack. In November, she mistakenly claimed that Muslims in the Israeli capital of Jerusalem are confined to the Muslim Quarter and then feuded with her Jewish colleague Ben Shapiro over the war between Israel and Hamas.
“You cannot serve both God and money,” declared Owens in what was widely viewed as an anti-Semitic shot at Shapiro.
More recently, Owens has blamed rising levels of anti-Semitism on “political Jews” and suggested that there was a “small ring of specific people” in Hollywood and potentially Washington, D.C. who are “using the fact that they are Jewish to shield themselves from any criticism.”
“All of us Black, Spanish, Jewish, Chinese, Japanese, all Americans should want answers because this appears to be something that is quite sinister,” she concluded.
But it appears that Owens has taken her theorizing about the Jewish people to a deeper level still.
In a post on X last Wednesday, celebrity Rabbi Shmuley Boteach accused Owens of being an “arch antisemite” who “is inciting her Jew-hating followers to threaten to murder Jews and especially me.”
“I have received untold numbers of messages like these from Candace’s Jew-hating fans. Candace Owens and @officialbenshapiro will be responsible for any acts of violence against Jews incited by Candace and the @dailywire,” declared Boteach, who also shared a direct message he received from someone threatening to knock him “the fuck out” and “spit in your face.”
“I will catch you jew boi. Ima knock you the fuck out. Ima watch you cry like a bitch,” read the message.
Boteach — who was also the subject of Owens’s “small ring” rant — received countless replies mocking him for his post, including one that Owens evidently found particularly compelling.
“It says February 20th, Rabbi. Are you drunk on Christian blood again?” asked a use with the handle @christ_gnosis.
It says February 20th, Rabbi. Are you drunk on Christian blood again?

Owens, evidently charmed by the user’s advancement of the wild anti-Semitic conspiracy theory, liked the post.
According to the Anti-Defamation League (ADL), the theory endorsed by Owens is the original “blood libel” or “false allegation that Jews murder Christians – especially Christian children – to use their blood for ritual purposes, such as an ingredient in the baking of Passover matzah.”
“Scholars have documented about 100 blood libels that took place from the twelfth to sixteenth centuries. Many of them resulted in massacres of Jews,” notes the ADL.
Owens also liked a post that read, “You’re making it too easy for people to hate Jews.”
Amidst Shapiro and Owens’s feud this fall, Daily Wire CEO Jeremy Boreing insisted that the company “would not fire Candace” because she “is paid to give her opinion.”
“Unless those opinions run afoul of the law or she violates the terms of her contract in some way, her job is secure and she is welcome at Daily Wire,” said Boreing.
It really is all about the benjamins, with or without deep-seated bigotry.
maybe it wasn’t her- but whoever it was just flip flopped- saying it was the drugs that killed him, then intimating that racism had a part later on-
In this day and age of insane gender beliefs on the left, it's not crazy at all to think that's impossible.
As to the rest of what this article claims, I seriously doubt what is being said is true. I don't see that being said by her on her X feed. So I don't believe it.
She liked a twitter post. They wrote an entire article about something that could be an accidental click whe scrolling through her phone.
I’m not saying she hasn’t been dippingnher toes into conspiratorial waters recently, but if she has really become so blatant of an antisemite, you shouldn’t have to stretch so far to find the evidence.
She never fell for the GF lie. She was always saying Floyd died of overdose.
Well, she was hanging out with Kanye, so it looks like she is an anti-Semite, too.
Disappointing and disgusting.
"Diversity", "Inclusion", "Equity", minority set-asides, a massive welfare state, black separatism, constant shrieking about "white supremacy" and similar evils are all the inevitable and probably intended consequences of that fight.
except that the whole blood libel against her is based on her liking a tweet.

No more than any other group in conflict with another group. Unfortunately, it’s the nature of human beings. (”Conflict” is probably not the best word there.)
I agree wholeheartedly. If you remove much of the race baiting propaganda regarding Jews or other races to divide people with an "us vs them" mentality, I think history will show that most clashes were more tribal than racial. In modern American terms, think of clashing with people "from the wrong side of the tracks" more often than with people of a different skin color.
For example, much of WW2 was white vs white or Asian vs Asian. Obviously some outliers like U.S. vs Japan. But if you look at the total casualties of Asians killed it was usually by other Asians (Chinese killed by Japan) or whites in Europe usually killed by other whites. The same thing with centuries of many, many clashes in sub-saharan Africa (black on black), indigenous Americans on indigenous Americans, etc.
Let’s not kid ourselves. This is not the first Jew-hatred she’s displayed.
And, speaking for myself, I’ve never “accidentally” liked a post accusing Jews of using the blood of Christian children to bake matzah.
Everything you mentioned there is true. But I don’t blame the original civil rights leaders for that. By and large, most of them just wanted a level playing field.
It’s all on LBJ. His wicked “Great Society” deliberately turned many blacks into wards of the state. So many horrible things grew from that program.
Adrenochrome has been a thing for a very long time.
Wait! Was this an article published in Mediaite? Oh, Okay. She’s goring somebody’s Ox! Otherwise, she wouldn’t be attacked so viciously. Ya think Charlie Kirk would keep-her-on if any of these libels were true? Jes axin’
one has to wonder if she is trying to get out of her daily wire contract.
That certainly is what we have been taught to believe.
They always looked like a bunch of commies, to me ...
She is.
She seemed so straight on for a while.
i see, sorry for the confusion on my part.
maybe it wasn’t her- but i remember her saying something that i thought “Great, another black ‘conservative’ falls for the lie” at the time- She seemed to say both that he died of overdose, then later said the following- She also repeated it during an interview at some point too i believe-
“The controversial commentator noted that what she was saying was not any defense for Chauvin, and that Floyd’s family deserves justice of the way that he died. “Just because he was a criminal does not mean you deserve to die at the knee of a police officer. I can’t say it enough, no, he did not deserve to die in that manner.””

Media just trying to destroy Candice any way they can.
