I saw this on Rawstory, a website my readers know often gives me an idea for a Substack.
DHS official flips out over question on meme tied to white nationalist account
Excerpt:
The Department of Homeland Security was caught using a meme created by an antisemitic white nationalist activist to promote their mass deportation efforts, journalist Zaid Jilani reported for The American Saga — and when confronted over it, a senior DHS official was completely unapologetic.
This is emerging on the same day that Trump's DHS faces a firestorm of controversy for having Sen. Alex Padilla (D-CA) tackled and handcuffed when he tried to ask DHS Secretary Kristi Noem about the administration's military occupation of Los Angeles during a news conference.
"On Wednesday, the DHS Twitter account posted an image of an Uncle Sam figure alongside the text 'REPORT ALL FOREIGN INVADERS,'" wrote Jilani.
"'Mrrobertwp' aka Mr. Robert is a white nationalist Twitter account," wrote Jilani. "He accuses Members of Congress of being 'Jew owned' and he’s a big fan of anti-black racial slurs, defending their use. He believes that Trump is the 'Great White Hope,' and one of his favorite slogans is 'Wake Up White Man,' which he posted repeatedly." Mr. Robert gloated about being able to get the cabinet department overseeing immigration and border security to post his meme, writing, “It's far reaching fellas. We really hit it out of the park with this one.”
This is the Substack which the RawStory article linked to:
Why is the Department of Homeland Security Cribbing from a White Nationalist?
Conservatives have long argued that their calls for immigration restriction are race-neutral. Someone in the administration is making this hard to believe.
I know many of my readers boycott X so they miss things posted there. For example the X poster, Robert Reichlin-Melnick , who identified the origin of that meme as coming from an account known as “mrrobertwp.”posted the following:
This tweet led to 89 replies (not a lot for X), but included these:
You can see that he brought out some of the haters as well:
Who, inquiring minds may want to know, is the lovely lady who said the following:
"These assertions are fundamentally unserious and reflect the completely juvenile state of mainstream journalism. These reporters should get off social media and start focusing on the very real victims of illegal alien crime. Every American citizen should support federal law enforcement in their just effort to deport criminal illegal alien invaders from our country. During the Biden Administration our borders were opened to an invasion by the very worst from around the world. Now President Trump and Secretary Noem are reversing the destruction of our nation and sending these thugs back."
She’s just another pretty face of the Trump dictatorship:
It is painful to listen to her but I suggest that you gird your loins and resist your gag reflex and click here.
Some may think this woman is physically attractive. I think she proves that beauty is only skin deep.
Updates: This is about Tricia McLaughlin: DHS official asks Kim Kardashian which murderers, rapists she would like to see ICE put back on streets. It was on Fox News’ website.
Excerpt:
In the midst of violent riots in downtown Los Angeles aimed at disrupting ICE operations in the city, the celebrity pleaded with the government to find a "BETTER way" of curbing illegal immigration.
In an Instagram story she shared on Tuesday, Kardashian stated, "Growing up in LA, I’ve seen how deeply immigrants are woven into the fabric of this city. They are our neighbors, friends, classmates, coworkers, and family. No matter where you fall politically, it’s clear that our communities thrive because of the contributions of immigrants. We can’t turn a blind eye when fear and injustice keep people from living their lives freely and safely."
"There HAS to be a BETTER way," she added.
Who knew? Kim Kardashian…
