WFB: A democratic socialist candidate identifying publicly as a Jewish immigrant was actually born in Miami and was a devout Christian campus leader until only a few years ago.
Julia Salazar is a Democratic community activist running for New York State Senate. Before running for office, she cut her teeth as a Jewish anti-Zionist, writing articles critical of Israel for left-wing sites like Mondoweiss and serving as senior editor for a blog affiliated with the pro-BDS Jewish Voice for Peace.
According to a profile by Jewish magazine Forward, Salazar has “a unique Jewish background. She was born in Colombia, and her father was Jewish, descended from the community expelled from medieval Spain. When her family immigrated to the United States, they had little contact with the American Jewish community, struggling to establish themselves financially.” more here
I guess not so “devout” after all!

Is it me, or do all these young Che wanna be women look identical?
I can remember that not all that long ago that lying was considered one of the most — if not *the* most — reprehensible things one could do. Liars were bad people, not to be trusted henceforth. It was always a very big shock to learn that someone of some standing, or a respected family member was caught in a big lie.
What happened? More postmodernism at work?
Well, if Elizabeth Warren can be an Indian, then this Salazar wench can be a Jewish immigrant.
You’re not Christian if your anti-israel
Esa muchacha Colombiana tiene víboras en la cabeza.
unique? nothing unique about being a lying bullshitter. They’re a dime a dozen.
Elect her! She already has lying mastered so just needs to learn cheating and stealing.
She just wants the lead role in one of those new millennial sitcoms….”My Mother Hated Methodists”….”Daddy Always Thought About Being a Jew”…or ” Palestinian Presbyterians”….
the important thing (to her) is that she identifies as a Jewish immigrant.
And the Onion takes it’s last breath…and collapses….Nevermore.
Lying political pimps gotta be lying political pimps…
If Lizzie can be an Indian, why not allow Julia to be a Jew.
thought the link was to “FreeBacon”
sadly it isnt.
Probably an easier gig to pull off than being Black or Native American!
Conflicted much? Clearly, she thinks self denial and barefaced lies work well in the real world.
