For Anti-Semites, Mastriano Is The Clear Choice, And Not Just Because His Opponent Is Jewish

If your dislike for Jews is an important criterion when you’re trying to decide whether or not to support a particular candidate, then Doug Mastriano is definitely your guy in this year’s Pennsylvania Gubernatorial Election. 

With a conspicuously Jewish opponent (Josh Shapiro), it might seem beyond obvious that Mastriano would be the choice for Anti-Semites.

But even if he (both of Mastriano’s parents are of Italian ancestry) had an opponent with the kinds of genes that Donald Trump was praising at a rally in Minnesota, Mastriano might still be deemed the worthier candidate by the Anti-Semitic bloc.

 

This is not to say that some Jew-Haters won’t be put off by what they might perceive as Mastriano’s occasional pandering to the Jewish Community, and his expressions of support for Israel (See Facebook post below).

Some Anti-Semites might feel less than comfortable knowing that their candidate, at a Pro-Trump rally in Washington, D.C. (not the January 6 “rally”) gave what sounded like a Purim Spiel, which from a Jewish perspective was both funny as hell, and offensive (although probably not intended to be either).

 

And, just a few weeks after showcasing his in-depth knowledge of a relatively obscure Jewish holiday, Mastriano kicked off his gubernatorial campaign (January 8, 2022) with some guy named  Pastor Don, donning a Tallit (prayer shawl) and blowing a Shofar. Anti-Semites, not knowing quite what to make of this spectacle, might have a more favorable opinion of Mastriano,  knowing that commentator Bill Kristol (a Jew) was offended, and Tweeted his disapproval of what he considered to be Mastriano’s appropriation of  “two of the most meaningful elements of Jewish worship, the prayer shawl worn on Shabbat and the shofar sounded on Rosh Hashanah, for his political event.”

So Where’s The Treyfeh (Not Kosher) Beef?

Well, there’s Mastriono’s flirtation with QAnon.

Before he was elected to the Pennsylvania Senate, Mastriano Tweeted more than 50 times with the hashtag #QAnon. According to Morning Consult, “Seventy-eight percent of U.S. respondents who agreed with the Protocols of the Elders of Zion also agreed with QAnon, while 49 percent of QAnon adherents agreed with the century-old antisemitic slur.”

In April of 2022, Mastriano was “The Headliner” at the Patriots Arise Conference in Gettysburg. Patriots Arise was organized by Allen and Francine Fosdick. The Fosdicks are QAnon supporters.

In August of 2019, the Fosdicks posted a link to a now defunct website called Humansbefree.com that suggested The Rothschilds appear to have a secret compact. Each member of the dynasty will die if he refuses to advance the plan for the subversion and enslavement of the human race outlined in “The Protocols of Zion.” 

The Humans Be Free article included a now broken link to a site featuring Protocals of the Elders of Zion.

If Mastriano’s reaching out to the QAnoners and appearing in video and on stage with the Fostdicks isn’t enough to convince the Anti-Semitic Community that he is worthy of their support, his very public friendship with Wendy Rogers should be more than enough to close the deal.

On several occassions Mastriano has re-posted Rogers’ Tweets, including but not limited to Tweets in which Rogers endorses him. 

And Rogers’ credentials as an Anti-Semite are impeccable.

Last year she echoed the “Great Replacement Theory,” made famous by “the  very fine people” at Charlottesville, Virginia – who under the flames of their Tiki-Lamps chanted, “Jews will not replace us.“

Rogers also appeared by video, and praised Nick Fuentes (He makes hysterical jokes about the holocaust, see below) at his America First Political Action Conference that also featured Paul Gosar and Marjorie Taylor Greene. After the conference Gosar said, he “didn’t know anything about the group,” before he spoke at their conference. And  Greene said that she didn’t know who the organizers of the event were and their views.

On her own website, Rogers promotes her appearances on TruNews.

TruNews was banned by YouTube in 2020 for violating the rules of the site against hate speech. Rick Wiles is the founder of TruNews. In March of 2020, Newsweek wrote of Wiles, who claims to not be Anti-Semitic –

Conservative pastor Rick Wiles has claimed that the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic is spreading in synagogues as punishment from God for Jews refusing to follow Jesus.

Wiles made the comments on the Wednesday night edition of his show TruNews. The preacher reacted to news that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was considering a national lockdown due to COVID-19 by insisting that God had sent a “plague” to the synagogues in order to punish Jews.

“Stay out of those things, there’s a plague in them. God’s dealing with false religions,” said Wiles. “God’s dealing with people who oppose his son, Jesus Christ. He’s dealing with the forces of Antichrist. And there’s a plague moving upon the earth right now, and the people that are going into the synagogues are coming out of the synagogues with the virus.”

 

Rick Wiles, TruNews Founder – 

The Impeach Trump Movement is a Jew Coup. Plain and Simple, the men and women who are the driving forces to remove Donald J. Trump from the White House, are Jews.
