Joe Rogan has been accused of “casually spouting antisemitism” on his hit podcast while trying to defend under-fire progressive Rep. Ilhan Omar from the same charge.
The UFC commentator was discussing how certain terms led to people getting canceled when he decried the Democratic “squad” member getting booted from the House Foreign Affairs Committee for her past anti-Semitic comments.

“Benjamins are money. The idea that Jewish people are not into money is ridiculous. That’s like saying Italians aren’t into pizza. It’s -—ing stupid. It’s -—ing stupid,” he said.Rogan then said that “whether you agree with her or not,” Omar had shared “a bold opinion.”

Remember, Rogan is a fan of Bernie Sanders
I once heard Joe say that he had never voted for a Republican.
Joe Garelli not the brightest bulb or sharpest knife.
‘accused of “casually spouting antisemitism”’
Well, he was probably high as **** when he spouted it. So of course he’d be spouting it casually.
It’s case by case basis for me, normally I’m against the tit for tat removal of Representatives from Committees based on what they say.
Schiff and Swalwell are different cases, Schiff intentionally misled the country after getting classified briefings to try and get Trump removed.
Swalwell was sleeping with a Chinese Spy, he’s compromised and had to be removed.
These two are national security risks and had to removed, plenty of other Democrats can serve on that committee and these two idiots can be on other committees just not the intelligence committee.
Ilhan Omar is an antisemite, she got removed from the foreign affairs committee but is allowed on other committees which is never talked about. She is better for the Republicans being up front and in the media.
With politicians it’s always about the Benjamins, they spend a huge amount of time fundraising. It is not just support of Israel, it is virtually every political position they take.
........what Joe hasn’t learned but might get a lesson in is that what goes up (i.e. personal net worth) can come down.
Lots of millionaires and billionaires and corporations that can educate him based on personal/first hand experience.
I never liked the guy. If he’s defending the likes of America hating Ilhan Omar he can go to hell as far as I am concerned.
He’s no Liver King.
What’s insulting about saying people like money? Has communism become so trendy that it’s an insult to say someone likes money?
The truth is always “racist”, “anti-Semitic”, “homophobic”, “xenophobic” or something.
I don’t mind Rogan saying it, but a Congresswoman shouldn’t.
I like him. He’s all over the place.
“What’s insulting about saying people like money? Has communism become so trendy that it’s an insult to say someone likes money?”
It is not “people”, it is a particular group of people and it implies terms like money grubbing, greedy and negative. Go shave your head and get in the ring like a real man Joe.
I found Rogan interesting for awhile. He listens well, but often breaks into filthy mouth, freely using f-bombs for no reason except sloppy intellect. But my last straw was his discussion with Tulsi Gabbard, who is a very polite, proper and nice person. He started saying “You’re so pretty” and asked her if she would consider oral sex, apparently with him, one way or another. It made me ill, and I thought I had seen and heard everything. I do not know how it ended because I shut it down. No more! Sickening display of vulgarity.
Another Stern wannabe.
At one time Stern was probably as much a RINO as anyone, he was good friends with Alphonse D’Amato.
Oh no, not anti- semitism!
Quick run around in circles.
