Anti-Semite Candace Owens dumped from Trump fundraiser

Candace Owens is the new face of American anti-Semitism. She has a lot of company, however, with university presidents and their students as well as Iran-funded protesters who hate Jews and Israel, as much as they hate America. 

Owens had been a weekly host on the conservative outlet the Daily Wire but was fired for her anti-Semitic sentiment and her downplay of the Holocaust atrocities. She even claimed that the experiments performed by Nazi scumbag Joseph Mengele on Jews during World War II sounded "like bizarre propaganda."

She was originally slated to headline the Friday event, which I wrote about, but having her at the event ignited a ton of backlash due to her recent anti-Semitic comments.

Donald Trump Jr. was also planning on attending.

“Donald Trump Jr. is making an appearance with Candace Owens, who recently suggested that the real victims of WWII were not the Jews but the Germans and the real villains not the Axis but the Allies,” Rep. Ritchie Torres (D-NY) wrote on X/Twitter after the initial announcement.

Dov Hikind, a former New York State Assemblyman from Brooklyn, New York and founder of Americans Against Antisemitism, argued on social media that the Trump campaign “being so closely associated with her [Owens] and the disgusting behavior we’ve witnessed from her almost daily, makes it near impossible to make the case to the Jewish people that the Republican Party is where we can trust that antisemitism in any form will not be tolerated.”

It was after these and many other negative responses about Owens' attending the event that she was removed from the poster  and no longer attending the event in Nashville, Tennessee.

“It was never announced Candace was hosting an event with” the Trump campaign, a spokesperson for Owens told Jewish Insider.

Perhaps not, but it certainly seemed that it was announced.

Owens got into a verbal altercation with a reporter on X who said she was kicked out of the event over her recent comments, including her suggesting on her podcast that AIPAC, the largest pro-Israel lobbying organization in the United States, was involved in the assassination of John F. Kennedy. 

So in her warped mind, Lee Harvey Oswald was working for Israel or the American Jews. How did she make that bizarre connection? Oh wait, it's like the connection liberals make when a conservatives states a truism, calling them racists. 

She even claimed in the same podcast episode that the US is being “held hostage by Israel.” In other words, if the US doesn't do the bidding of Israel, Americans are no longer going to receive Israeli-made tahini sauce.  

The reporter mentioned above, Stella Escobedo, posted that she could confirm that Owens was off the panel for this week.

“I’m told it was a group of Bitcoin guys, not politicians who organized the event and didn’t know about her Jew hatred,” she tweeted.

“I’m told Don Jr. was invited to the event prior to Candace being added to panel. Zero tolerance for antisemitism.”

Owens denied the accusation saying, “I was definitively not canceled from any event over ‘Jew hatred,’ least of all because of anything to do with Trump’s campaign. This is just entirely made up out of thin air.”

Sorry, Candy, but I don't believe you.

The event in Nashville was billed as a “VIP Meet & Greet” and reportedly costs as much as $5,000 to attend. I probably won't make it.

Long Island Muslima funneled money to ISIS via Bitcoin

A Brentwood Long Island woman, Zoobia Shanaz, 27, allegedly laundered tens of thousands of dollars via Bitcoin to support ISIS. 

Shanaz (pronounced "Schnoz") worked at a Manhattan hospital as a lab tech. She is charged with bank fraud, conspiracy to commit money laundering and money laundering.

The U.S. Attorney's Office said that in June and July, Shanaz used no less than 16 credit cards in her name to buy more than $62,700 in Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. She also is alleged to have obtained a $22,500 loan from a bank in Manhattan and all of the money was deposited into two separate bank accounts. She later wired the money to people in Pakistan, China and Turkey.

It's believed Shanaz used methods to avoid reporting requirements on transactions and to conceal her identity, source and destination of the illegally-obtained money.

Investigators said her efforts were intended to support the Islamic State, which she planned to join.

The court filing also stated:

"Specifically, the investigation has revealed that, during the time she was committing bank fraud and moving money overseas, the defendant accessed ISIS propaganda, violent jihad-related websites and message boards, and social media and messaging pages of known ISIS recruiters, facilitators and financiers. Additionally, the defendant conducted numerous internet searches for maps of and locations within ISIS-controlled territory in Syria, and attempted to locate information that would facilitate her entry into Syria."

According to prosecutors, Shanaz obtained a Pakistani passport, quit her job in June, but didn't inform her family. She booked a flight to Syria to leave NYC on July 31 and headed to the airport that day. Her family believed she was going to work. But she was planning to join ISIS.

She had a return ticket booked for September 4th, 2017, but she had no plan to return and only booked a return flight to appear less suspicious.

As the terrorist wannabe arrived for her flight at JFK Airport, agents intercepted her at the gate and questioned her. She gave them false and conflicting explanations about her overseas wire transfers. She had $9,500 in cash with her, which is just under the limit.

She was taken into custody and charged. She has no known prior criminal history.

Federal authorities said Shanaz obtained over $150,000 in illicit funds and made no attempt to pay back the credit cards used to buy Bitcoin.

"The defendant presents an irremediable flight risk and an extreme danger to the community," prosecutors said in the court papers. "Accordingly, she must be detained pending trial."

She sounds lovely.
