Reps. Josh Gottheimer (D-NJ) and Jared Moskowitz (D-FL) said on Wednesday that they would seek to expel Maureen Galindo, a Democrat running for Congress in Texas who has expressed extreme antisemitic views, if she is elected.

He made a similar comment, and expounded on the situation, during a House hearing earlier in the day, describing Galindo’s comments as a logical escalation of attacks on Jewish and pro-Israel Americans and U.S. support for Israel, which have become increasingly common in Democratic politics.

    I can see someone casually saying “all those ICE pigs need to be thrown in alligator Alcatraz” but that would an incredibly flippant public statement from a real political candidate.

    Why? Because we all pretend that it is together? Throwing ICE in Alcatraz should be the moderate opinion.

    It’s immoral and wrong but I’m not gonna support throwing people in concentration camps for their awful opinions.

    How about for sending weapons to genocide Muslims in a concentration camp?
