Texas Dem Candidate Sparks Outrage With Call for ‘Prison for American Zionists’

Texas Dem Candidate Sparks Outrage With Call for ‘Prison for American Zionists’

“It will also be a castration processing center for pedophiles, which will probably be most of the Zionists,” she added.

In a weekend post on Instagram, Texas Democrat Maureen Galindo, who is running to represent the newly redrawn 35th Congressional District, vowed to turn the Karnes ICE Detention Center, located just outside of San Antonio, “into a prison for American Zionists and former ICE officers for human trafficking.”

“It will also be a castration processing center for pedophiles, which will probably be most of the Zionists,” she added.

Galindo’s stunning antisemitic comments, first reported Tuesday by San Antonio Current writer Michael Karlis, have drawn bipartisan outrage.

Galindo, a sex therapist and housing activist, finished ahead of her primary opponent, Bexar County Sheriff’s Deputy Johnny Garcia, in the March primary by a margin of 29.2% to 27.02%. Because neither candidate met the 50% threshold, a runoff will be held on May 26.

According to Karlis, she has accused Garcia of  “participating in a human trafficking conspiracy orchestrated by billionaire zionist Jews” and “pledged during a Texas Public Radio interview to put Garcia on trial for treason.”

In the video below, posted by Washington Free Beacon writer Jon Levine earlier this month, she attacked “‘Jews who own Hollywood’ as members of ‘the Synagogue of Satan’ and said she won’t take Israeli ‘Blood money.'” 

Galindo’s Facebook page is littered with inflammatory and antisemitic captions, such as: “Israel funded politicians are aiding Israel with the materials to terrorize America,” “ICE trains with Israel’s terrorist military, and “Johnny Garcia and all American candidates and elected officials who took money from Israel will be tried for TREASON.”

Yet, despite these posts, she shamelessly declared, “The thing I’m most proud of about my campaign is making democracy feel possible again!!”

In an interview with Texas Public Radio last week, Galindo denied allegations of antisemitism while continuing to voice opposition to what she described as “Zionist Jews.” She said:

I’m not antisemitic. In fact my last serious relationship was with a Jewish man. I’m against Zionist Jews. When I said that the Jews who own Hollywood are doing this, do all Jews own Hollywood? No. The Zionist Jews do. The Zionist Jews own our media, our banks and all of our politicians.

Naturally, Democrats are distancing themselves from Galindo’s vile rhetoric. Professor Jacobson noted that while “Democrats are running for the hills” over this, “it is exactly what they’ve been stoking” with their own political messaging. He’s right.

At any rate, in a Tuesday post on X, Rep. Jared Moskowitz (D-FL) wrote, “First current political candidate suggests concentration camps for American Jews. This should be national news!” He also called on national Democratic leaders to “call this out immediately.”

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said Galindo’s remarks were “absolutely disgusting” and “this bigoted garbage and antisemitism should be nowhere near our politics.” She called on Texas Democrats to support Garcia.

She added that the “donors behind the Republican super PAC funding her should be exposed.”

In a joint statement, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries and DCCC Chair Suzan DelBene went further in assigning blame to GOP leadership. They wrote:

House Republican leadership must immediately cease propping up this antisemitic candidacy, pull spending in the race and forcefully condemn these comments. This vile language by her is disqualifying and has no place in America politics, and certainly not in the Democratic Party. To embrace and uplift a fringe candidate with antisemitic — and extremely dangerous — rhetoric and views in order to win an election is beyond the pale.

Funny — where do they think Republicans got this idea?

The clearest example came during the 2022 midterm cycle, when Democratic groups and candidates spent heavily to boost far-right, Trump-aligned Republicans in GOP primaries, believing they would be the easiest to defeat in the general election. And in many cases, they were correct.

In remarks to the Jewish Telegraphic Agency, Texas Democratic Senate candidate James Talarico said, “This antisemitic rhetoric has no place in our politics. We need leadership in both parties willing to stand up and call out hate wherever it rears its ugly head.” Talarico’s campaign confirmed to Fox News that “he will not stump for Galindo if she wins the nomination.”

Democrats must be asked why they are only now condemning Galindo for her antisemitic tropes.

Although Galindo’s most recent round of hateful statements came to national attention on Tuesday, her campaign has been marked by repeated antisemitic smears. Texas Public Radio and The Texas Tribune both described the ICE-facility comments as part of a broader pattern of bigoted remarks throughout her campaign.

And while few Democrats go quite as far as Galindo did, many have come very close. After AIPAC congratulated Ed Gallrein for his win over incumbent (and antisemite) Rep. Thomas Massie in Kentucky’s Republican congressional primary on X, Rhode Island state representative Enrique Sanchez, a Democrat, responded, “Go f*** yourselves. Your end will come soon f***ers.”

Classy guy.

While I haven’t been able to find any recent polling for this race, the newly redrawn district, currently represented by Democrat Greg Casar, is widely expected to flip to Republicans in November.

    If it was just Paxton by himself I’d be concerned. But….its not. There are the Gov, LtGov and AG running as well. There won’t be enough cross overs from those three other races to put Talarico over the top.

    This candidate and continued Democrat double downing doesn’t help Mr T

The evil communist/Islamofascist/Muslim supremacist Dhimmi-crats have gone full-Jew-hater, embracing candidates with Nazi tattoos, candidates who support “globalizing the ‘intifada,'” candidates who vilify American Jews who support Israel as allegedly being “all about the Benjamins,” and, now, candidates who want to put American Jews (“Zionists” is just a fig-leaf euphemism) in “camps.”

The evil party of Satan continues its march into hell.

Jews owned Hollywood because of a high average verbal IQ. Probably doesn’t apply today owing to idiocy in Hollywood reducing the demand.

Another moron who doesn’t know that “treason” is very narrowly defined by the Constitution and that the authors did that purposefully to prevent prosecutions for just about anything that might be labeled “treason.”

Unfortunately, too many conservatives paved the way for this form of idiocy.

Wow; well she’s just syaing what the Squad would like to say outloud and frankly some people in my field of mental health currently say (i.e. see anti-colonial therapy if you don’t believe me). It’s not lost to me that a year to the date Yaron Lischinsky and Sarah Miligram were murdered in DC for walking while being Jewish (actually Yaron was a Christian Israeli). Guess according to this “firebrand” politician, I’m going to prison because I refuse to be told that Israel isn’t an essential component of my identity. Of course 80 to 90% of American Jews would agree with me; so I guess lock us all up; it worked out great for Germany didn’t it?

    Statement by Maureen Galindo:

    “I am a sex therapist running to represent the newly redrawn 35th District. I am known for my “liberation-based” sex-positive approach. I have helped numerous democrats navigate intimacy, reclaim self-agency, and heal from trauma—especially trauma caused by Jews.

    Having learned the basics, I now turn to politics. If elected, I promise to heal everyone in Texas—except Jews of course. I will lock up the Jews and set everyone else free.

    So if you are not a Jew, vote Maureen and experience the healing and liberation you deserve.”

      Indeed. ‘We’re gonna need a bigger’…nationwide investment in mental health facilities to house the large number of antisocial, dangerously deviant, whackos who insist on their ‘crash out’ moment instead of being willing to exist within the cultural and social framework of a civil society. Either that or drive them out of our midst completely via extraordinarily ‘uncivil’ methods which most are too squeamish to employ.

“The clearest example came during the 2022 midterm cycle, when Democratic groups and candidates spent heavily to boost far-right, Trump-aligned Republicans in GOP primaries”

Actually, the most IMPRESSIVE example is when Democrats boosted the first candidacy of Trump himself, thinking he would be easiest for Hillary to defeat. Talk about a Grand Canyon-style pratfall.

This woman is an unserious candidate and has no real plans to hold office. This was a trial balloon to see if the time is right to transition to explicit, direct Jew hate instead of hiding behind Palestinianism. The focus-group polling after this incident will be a gold mine of data for the Democrats.

The distinction between “Jews” and “zionist Jews” is farcical. A Jew who is not a zionist is a Jew only by accident of birth. much like someone born a US citizen but sworn to the USA’s destruction.

If you are a Jew understand, they are coming.

There are the comments of this creature and others in it’s party.

There is the ‘libertarian’ remarks from Massie in his concession.

There is the groyper front

And that’s just the US.

The marching morons in the UN and the EU parliament are right there with them.

And then there’s Islam.

I used to live in San Antonio, before hubby and I moved out to a smaller town in an another county with a good, friendly Republican Congressman. Galindo is a weapons-grade whacko, a foul-ball off the Rosie Castro bat (no doubt you know her sons Julian and Joaquin?). How she ever managed to pull off a larger vote than Garcia is a mystery, because Garcia is just as bad as she is, but in a different way.
