Senate Majority Leader Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) on Thursday recounted being evacuated from the Senate chamber during the Jan. 6 attack, including a close brush with rioters who he was told made antisemitic remarks about him.
"I was within 30 feet of these nasty, racist, bigoted insurrectionists. Had someone had a gun, had two of them blocked off the door, who knows what would have happened. I was told later that one of them reportedly said, 'There's the big Jew. Let's get him,' " Schumer said.
"Bigotry against one is bigotry against all. And I saw something that I had been told later never happened before, the Confederate flag flying in this dear Capitol. That's just one of many searing, grotesque images of that unimaginable, most un-American day," Schumer added.

I had no idea he was Jewish until I heard this
I thought this was an armed insurrection.
They targeted him because he’s a drunkard?
“I was within 30 feet of these nasty, racist, bigoted insurrectionists. Had someone had a gun, had two of them blocked off the door, who knows what would have happened. I was told later that one of them reportedly said, ‘There’s the big Jew. Let’s get him,’ “ Schumer said.
No video = Didn’t happen
They could have flown over the Capitol in a B-52 armed with nuclear bombs.
A New is one who is a Jew inwardly. No fair using it for politics or any other thing, if you’re just a JINO.
One that is lying thru his teeth!
Schumer is hardly religious
Seriously doubt that was said. He is pathetic.
Judaism is one of three Abrahamic religions
Jewishness is an identity
It’s weird
Most Jews I know are agnostic or atheists
But none deny their Jewishness
I have two in my family
My daughters half brother is Jewish and a reasonable leftist
I’ve requested him as a pall bearer when I die I’m that five of him and I want him to feel continuity with us
His dad in the other hand is a rabid asshole far left loon third gen Russian Jewish atheist
But he’s funny to his credit lol
Im Baptist but nobody calls me that
We’ll except some rabid FR Catholics
Jews are my favorite people that often aggravate me politically including my Los Angeles biz associate another lefty but a great guy to have a biz relationship with
Witty and self deprecating unlike Schumer
they’ve been as much a fixture of my personal life as any other group outside my own provincial southern peer group
He’s Amy Schumer Jewish.....
Jewish leftism notwithstanding
Many Jews here are tier one posters
Schumer is shameless and an embarrassment to them like the modern klan is to me
What a total LIE. Schumer has never identified as a Jew. He proudly marched in the GAY parade, as father of a gay daughter. When he marched in the annual Israel Day parade, it was a totally hypocritical, purely political ploy.
This guys career has been built on lies and running to get his mug on camera. I knew when he was a Congressman, he would be worse as a Senator. Power corrupts absolutely.
Putz isn’t a religion
<< “I was told later that one of them reportedly said, ‘There’s the big Jew. Let’s get him,’ “ Schumer said. >>
Lol, yeah right. Schmucky’s tale sounds about as legit as Jussie’s. What a loathsome yutz.
Leftists of any stripe lie
As do most politicians
Look at evangelist Ted Cruz hoof in mouth disease this week
Schumer simply isn’t likable
It’s not his Jewishness
Mel Brooks is Jewish and a liberal but he’s extremely likable
According to him he did a sing along with wermacht soldiers across the river in northern Germany in January 1945.....the German folk song Ja Ja
Brooks went to VMI for training before deployment
My dads roomie at vmi was a fellow from Long Island ....Ambrosia ..Jewish Italian heritage
They did fighter training together usaf 1955 and remained lifelong pals ...we would visit them in Huntington
But of course. His unlikability stems from his inauthenticity. Same as VP Harris. Or that phony Cruz, whom I’ve blasted this week more than any pol in a while.
Mel’s a mensch. Didn’t know about his stint at VMI.
