House candidate Maureen Galindo pledges to send ‘American zionists’ to internment camp

Controversy-tarred congressional candidate Maureen Galindo this week pledged to transform a site south of San Antonio now used by the Trump administration to detain migrants into an internment camp for “American Zionists.”

“She’ll turn Karnes ICE Detention Center into a prison for American Zionists and former ICE officers for human trafficking,” Galindo wrote in an Instagram post over the weekend, referring to herself in the third person. “It will also be a castration processing center for pedophiles, which will probably be most of the Zionists.”

Galindo’s latest set of inflammatory remarks comes as the Democratic hopeful for Texas’ newly redrawn 35th Congressional District continues to draw national attention for remarks critics have called antisemitic and untethered from reality. The controversy is snowballing as she heads into the May 26 Democratic primary runoff.

Over the past week, Galindo has accused her runoff opponent — former Bexar County Public Information Officer Johnny Garcia — of participating in a human trafficking conspiracy orchestrated by billionaire zionist Jews. She also pledged during a Texas Public Radio interview to put Garcia on trial for treason.

Beyond her attacks on Garcia, Galindo has continued to promote the narrative that a cabal of Jewish zionists controls Hollywood, the media and even local politicians.

Even so, in comments to the Current and other media outlets, Galindo maintained she only has an issue with zionists, or those advocating for the existence of a Jewish state in their ancestral homeland, rather than Jews in general.

“I think it’s actually the zionists who are putting Jewish people at the most risk,” Galindo told the Current last week.

    just robotically going down the list of reddit shit heal cliches.

    Your over-reliance on that thought-terminating insult is pathetic.

    TIL “reddit prose” means anyone that disagrees with you.

    Nobody said anything about extrajudicial before you. Work on your own fucking reading comprehension.

    Concentration camps, by their very nature, are extrajudicial. The fact that you need that spelled out multiple times is just sad.

    Unless you really want to argue that these “immigration detention facilities” are actually totally legal and constitutional and only being used to enforce court rulings via due process?

    Nuremberg didn’t send people to Auschwitz. They didn’t arbitrarily imprison anyone. They sent convicted nazis to legitimate prisons, and in some cases gibbets. They did so legally, through judicial process.

    Concentration camps are extrajudicial. They are not legitimate or legal detention facilities. And your attempts to conflate these concepts while pretending you’re not, are not getting you very far.

    You’ve said this like 3 times now. Shut the fuck up

    You shut up. If you didn’t repeat the same mindless drivel multiple times in a row then I wouldn’t be giving you the same dismissive replies.
