JNS.org – The West Virginia State Democratic Party is calling for the state’s GOP to condemn “antisemitic hate speech spread by Robert Karnes,” a Republican state senate candidate.
Karnes, a former West Virginia state senator, won the June 9 primary against incumbent Sen. John Pitsenbarger.
According to the Democratic Party in a Facebook post, Karnes, in a conversation with Mike Pushkin, a Democratic Jewish member of the West Virginia House of Delegates, “pushed a false conspiracy theory that George Soros made his fortune by ‘selling Jews to the Nazis.’ ”
Karnes said that since Pushkin was a Jew, like billionaire liberal activist Soros, Pushkin could “be like George.”
