Writer Max Blumenthal is set to speak at the Woman’s National Democratic Club, drawing criticism for his anti-Israel stance and promotion of conspiracies. The event follows his recent address at a Republican club. A staffer for Rep. Summer Lee is linked to the 'Dear White Staffers' account, which has shifted focus to Israel issues since October 7, causing discomfort among Jewish staffers. Pittsburgh-area rabbis, including Rabbi Jeffrey Myers, have signed an open letter denouncing Rep. Summer Lee for her anti-Israel rhetoric.
Completely bizarre -- the historic Woman's National Democratic Club (@WNDC_1922) is hosting notorious conspiracy theorist & apologist for #Putin, #Assad & more for an event tomorrow... He'll speak on U.S. foreign policy. What on earth. https://t.co/lAb6x1js5D

SCOOP: Jewish Insider has linked the much-followed Dear White Staffers account, which has become almost a single-issue Israel page since Oct. 7, to a staffer for Rep. Summer Lee. Jewish staffers say its posts have made them feel unsafe at the Capitol. https://t.co/bnemDrB5VE

If you want to see how mainstream antisemitism is becoming on the left, this is akin to a Republican organization inviting the late David Irving to speak https://t.co/y0wQKUehow
