Senator Moran: Antisemitism rise "deeply concerning"

Senator Jerry Moran

(KAIR)--"Deeply concerning."

That's what United States Senator Jerry Moran calls "the rise in antisemitic violence in the U.S" in a post made to his official social media Sunday.

Through that post, the Kansas Republican, without naming names or specifics, and intentionally or unintentionally, enters the ongoing national debate regarding the recent mainstream appearance of self-proclaimed antisemite Nick Fuentes, who has publicly praised Adolph Hitler and denied the Holocaust, in an interview hosted by well-known, Republican political commentator Tucker Carlson.

Since the airing of the conversation, which critics say offered no pushback to the beliefs of Fuentes, the debate has raged regarding the so-called platforming of such personalities, with many Republicans voicing their disagreement with the interview, including South Carolina Senator Lindsey Graham, who NPR reports voiced his perspective at the recent Republican Jewish Coalition meeting in Las Vegas.

Moran, in his post, labels "promoting, accepting or even a tepid tolerance of Nazism" as "despicable," adding that Americans "must commit ourselves to never forgetting the horrors of the Holocaust and fighting the poison of antisemitism that has sprung up in America," saying that "promoting or committing violence or hatred against people based on their religion or ethnicity goes against the core principles of our nation- founding."
