Democrat Maureen Galindo Running for Congress in Texas Pledges to Send ‘American Zionists’ to Internment Camps
The Gateway Pundit ^ | May 20, 2026 | Margaret Flavin

Maureen Galindo, who was chosen by Texas Democrats, terrifyingly with about 29% of the vote, to advance to the party's primary runoff for the state's newly redrawn 35th Congressional District, is under fire for inflammatory remarks that include a pledge to send 'American Zionists' to 'internment camps.'

In an Instagram post last week, Galindo wrote, "When Maureen gets into Congress, she'll write legislation so that all Zionism and support of Zionism is undoubtedly Anti-Semitic, since it's Zionists harming the Semites."

"She'll turn Karnes ICE Detention Center into a prison for American Zionists and former ICE officials for human trafficking."

"(It will also be a castration processing center for pedophiles, which will probably be most of the Zionists)."

Fox News reporter Bill Melugin notes, "Maureen Galindo, a Democrat running for Congress in TX-35, says in an Instagram post that she would turn an ICE detention center near San Antonio 'into a prison for American Zionists', and will also use it as a castration processing center for pedophiles, 'which will probably be most of the Zionists.'"

"Yes, it’s real, and yes the post is still up. She has a runoff election next week."

"In other posts on her Instagram, Galindo claims that her runoff opponent, Johnny Garcia, was part of a human trafficking conspiracy orchestrated by 'billionaire Zionist Jews.'"

Galindo's social media is replete with anti-Zionist rhetoric, including claims of a 'cabal of Jewish zionists' controlling Hollywood, the media, and politicians.

In comments to the San Antonio Current, Galindo claims she only has an issue with “zionists or those advocating for the existence of a Jewish state in their ancestral homeland, rather than Jews in general.

Per the Current:

“I think it’s actually the zionists who are putting Jewish people at the most risk,” Galindo told the Current last week.

The San Antonio Jewish Federation (JFSA) doesn’t see it that way.

“The JFSA strongly condemns the spread of antisemitic tropes and conspiracy theories in public discourse,” the group said in a statement responding to Galindo’s remarks. “Divisive and hateful rhetoric targeting the Jewish community has no place in our civic life.”

Even some Democrats are distancing themselves from Galindo’s ugly and dangerous rhetoric.

Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries of New York and Rep. Suzan DelBene of Washington, who heads the House Democrats’ campaign arm, criticized Galindo.

“This vile language by her is disqualifying and has no place in American politics, and certainly not in the Democratic Party,” the two Democrats said in a statement released Tuesday night.

anti-semitism has been around a very long time.
it is inherently evil and irrational, crazy.
(It is fine to disagree with the faith premises of any church or synagogue or other house of worship. We all disagree with some things in other churches or else we’d have joined them already....this is our cherished freedom of religion in daily practice, we respect free will in America).

but still.... I have difficulty fathoming just how ANYBODY (especially those raised in civilized societies with all sorts of social support services like USA)... how anybody could wind up SO COMPLETELY EVIL (and utterly Crazy) ...

no wonder the (RC) Church recognizes Demonic Possession....
what else could explain such Satanism in a human being?

A good joke would be to arrest her for no good reason and send her to an internment camp

these people have serious personal problems that have gone unaddressed and have found a perverse outlet in hate - causeless hate of Jews, blind hate of DJT... it must be stronglydenounced, broadly shunned, etc and certainly not sanctioned by a national political party by allowing such a hater to identify under its label. so far on that score Ds have given a pass to Omar Tlaib Plather (sp?) Mamdani - and now Galindo.and there are more. draw your own conclusions.

“no wonder the (RC) Church recognizes Demonic Possession....”

All Christian denominations do, AFAIK. You wouldn’t believe some of the stories of demon possession told to us by foreign missionaries back in the States on furlough.

It is stronger than ever here on American soil, and progressing quickly.
