Well, that was easy. Thanks Lauren. TEXT: President Joe Biden announced a new plan on Thursday to fight hate, bias and violence against Jewish people and combat an alarming rise in antisemitism — and Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-Colo.) is taking it very personally. The president’s plan outlines more than 100 steps the administration and its partners can take to combat antisemitism, according to The Associated Press. Biden said it sends a “clear and forceful message” that “in America, evil will not win, hate will not prevail” and “the venom and violence of antisemitism will not be the story of our time.” If you thought combating hate is something most Americans could support even in polarizing times, guess again: It seems Boebert assumed that targeting hate groups actually meant targeting conservatives. “When they say stuff like this, they mean they want to go after conservatives,” she tweeted. ”Their tactics are straight out of the USSR’s playbook.” Many Twitter users thought Boebert was revealing something about herself in her tweet, with one person proclaiming, “Every radical MAGA GOP extremist’s accusation is a Confession!!!” Another appreciated that the Colorado Republican seemed to admit that “conservatives are spreading hate and are antisemitic.” Others chimed in. As of Thursday afternoon, it looked like Boebert’s tweet was facing the dreaded Twitter ratio, but it did earn some snarky praise from one user, who called it “a self own without equal.” Boebert’s antisemitism tweet isn’t her only hot take that turned out not so hot. Earlier this week, she falsely claimed that having a child was cheaper than birth control. www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/lauren-boebert-suggests-effort-to-fight-antisemitism-is-an-attack-on-conservatives/ar-AA1bHGE9

So, dems try to fight anti-semitism and right wingers defending anti-semitism. We won’t hear a peep from SciFive on this.

The Rep might be right It's all right here, very easy to find with google. www.whitehouse.gov/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/U.S.-National-Strategy-to-Counter-Antisemitism.pdfI mean - we had a poster here demand that NO criticism of Israel and ONLY positive threads and posts be allowed to be posted about Israel on this board, so I can't see any of the steps being more severe/drastic than that. But I'd be curious as to what you would disagree with.

papamihelIn the White House document on page 40, it speaks about college campuses and really misses the mark. Biden’s Administration apparently sees the drastic hate campaigns against Israel as mere “criticism” instead of incitement.

Being anti Israel isn’t anti Semitic and I’m so sick of Zionist lowlifes saying it is. It’s not enough for the Zionists that we give Israel billions each year and fight wars on their behalf, they want to censor all criticism of Israel as well. They want special treatment.

This administration is desperate to create some ministry of censorship to give Dems/feds more control over free speech. They’ll disguise it any way they can. These are the same people that called a massive climate spending bill ‘the inflation reduction act.’ Actual clowns.

Biden doesn’t seem to address the drastic hate and incitement campaigns being aimed at Israel by the left.
If he’s not addressing these, he is missing the mark. Badly.
