Does Jon Ossoff Think America Deserved 9/11?

Rapid Response

Georgia Democrat Senator Jon Ossoff is cowardly refusing to condemn raging antisemite and terrorist sympathizer Hasan Piker's support.




Piker — who is widely known known for claiming "America deserved 9/11" — has a history of unsettling rhetoric that Ossoff is refusing to condemn:


  • "America deserved 9/11”
  • He doesn't "have an issue with" Hezbollah
  • "It doesn't matter if fucking rapes happened on October 7”
  • Date rape is “better” if it happens to rich women
  • Fantasized about killing landlords: "Kill those motherfuckers, murder those motherfuckers in the streets. Let the streets soak in their fucking red capitalist blood.”
  • Called Jews “inbred” and “rabid”
  • "I would say China is probably the closest…to an example that we should follow and lessons that we should learn from."
  • "I don't have any sort of patriotism in my heart for… for America.”

Why is it so hard for the Georgia Democrat to condemn someone who so blatantly and openly hates America?

 

Ossoff's silence is disgusting, but not surprising
