A former Democratic congresswoman and one-time Green Party presidential nominee has once against sparked controversy with antisemitic posts on social media.

Less than a month after she used her Twitter/X account to promote a livestream event featuring former KKK Grand Wizard David Duke and the black nationalist author of a book called Jews Are The Problem, Cynthia McKinney retweeted a series of posts parroting antisemitic canards.

On Wednesday, McKinney posted a series of comments to Twitter/X referencing several recent incidents of Orthodox Jews spitting on Christians in the Old City of Jerusalem, as well as a video of a confrontation between several Christian missionaries and ultra-Orthodox Jewish children.

Later that day, McKinney retweeted a post accusing Israel’s Sephardic Chief Rabbi, Yitzhak Yosef, of racism and declaring that he “burn in hell right now [sic],” and another comment accusing Jews of promoting slavery of both blacks and whites, pedophilia, and organ trafficking.

“Jews and Israel love trafficking organs, children and women, murderers, slavery black and white, genocide Muslims and other countries worldwide, lies, manipulations, pedophilia and sex offenders, funding training azoz nazis and alqaida….”

In yet another post, which linked to a video of a confrontation between Christian missionaries, Israeli Border Police, and several Israeli civilians, McKinney retweeted that Jews “promised to murder” Christians.

“Jews promised to murder Xtians…they boast that they murdered Christ…so Christ followers no biggy to Jews. World, we have a problem!”

McKinney, who represented Georgia in the U.S. House of Representatives from 1993 to 2003 and again from 2005 to 2007, left the Democratic Party in 2007, registering as a member of the Green Party ahead of her 2008 presidential bid.

In the past she has promoted conspiracy theories regarding the 9/11 terror attacks and the number of Jews killed in the Holocaust.

Former Democratic congresswoman Cynthia McKinney promotes crossover event featuring antisemitic black nationalist author alongside white supremacist David Duke.

By Andrew Bernard, The Algemeiner

Cynthia McKinney, a former US congresswoman and 2008 presidential nominee for the Green Party, on Monday promoted a livestream event featuring notorious white supremacist David Duke and the black nationalist author of a book called Jews Are The Problem.

“I know where I’ll be and what I’ll be watching at 6:00 pm EASTERN time today!” McKinney posted on X, the social media platform formerly known as Twitter.

Her post included a promotional image of an event with the question “Can Black people and White people work together to defeat our common enemy?” written above a large Star of David and a photo of the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks against the US.

Duke is a former leader of the Ku Klux Klan who has been described by the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) as “perhaps America’s most well-known racist and antisemite.”

The other co-host of the event, Ayo Kimathi, has been described by the ADL as an “antisemitic and anti-LGBTQ+ Black nationalist extremist” who makes appearances on podcasts and other media forums with white supremacists, often finding common ground over a shared hatred of Jews. His 2022 book, Jews Are The Problem, blames Jews for COVID-19, feminism, pornography, and a host of other real or imagined societal problems.

McKinney — who served in the US House of Representatives from 1993 to 2003 and again from 2005 to 2007 as a Georgia Democrat before running for president in 2008 as the Green Party candidate — has a long and prodigious history of promoting antisemitic and other conspiracies, including Holocaust denial.

In recent days, McKinney has also waded into the controversy between X/Twitter owner Elon Musk and the ADL.

“Elon Musk is telling the truth if he felt as if they were trying to ‘shake’ him down,” she said after claiming that the “pro-Israel lobby” had pressured her campaign donors. “That’s what they do […] ask [Dallas Mavericks star Kyrie Irving] who had to donate money to make his problem with them go somewhat away.”

Last year, Irving, a professional basketball player, was suspended from the Brooklyn Nets, his team at the time, after he promoted the antisemitic film “Hebrews to Negroes: Wake Up Black America,” which accuses Jews of being responsible for the slave trade and controlling the media. The film also peddles other antisemitic tropes and conspiracies.

McKinney recently said that “we know that the Jews represented by AIPAC [the American Israel Public Affairs Committee] and ADL have a problem with strongly opinionated Black men” and that “Zionists run Washington.”

Cynthia McKinney, 65, who left Congress in 2007, posted a link to an article on Saturday from the Israeli daily Haaretz that explored the issue of how the number of victims of the Holocaust was calculated.

A former U.S. congresswoman and notorious anti-Israel activist and conspiracy theorist has engaged in Holocaust denial on social media twice over the past three days.

Cynthia McKinney, 65, who left Congress in 2007, posted a link to an article on Saturday from the Israeli daily Haaretz that explored the issue of how the number of victims of the Holocaust was calculated.

McKinney commented, “So, the figure wasn’t six million after all?? What about those punished and even imprisoned for saying so?? Is this a ‘You can’t say, but I can’ kind of thing??”

Replies to McKinney’s tweet were replete with Holocaust denial, with users posting statements like “Six million fake news also,” “Easily the most epic criminal extortion racket ever perpetrated on humanity,” and “Nuremberg, where the Germans had been brutally tortured into saying anything asked of them.”

Many commenters, however, criticized McKinney, with comments such as “No wonder you’re ‘former’ congresswoman — good riddance anti-semite Holocaust Denier” and “Cool, cool, literal Holocaust denial.”

On Monday, McKinney responded, saying, “Haaretz writes, ‘According to Yad Vashem’s estimates, once the double listings are removed, the database contains about 4.8 million names.’ I post. Message to me: ‘What turned you into an anti-Jewish bigot and Holocaust denier? You’re a piece of s**t.’”

The article in fact did not say the 4.8 million names were the final tally of victims, only that the names of the rest are likely to remain unknown.

McKinney, a Georgia native, is known for her radical views, including conspiracy theories regarding the 9/11 attacks.

After being defeated in a 2006 primary, she left the Democratic party and joined the far-left Green party and later the Libertarian party. In 2008, she was the Green party’s candidate for president, and received 0.12% of the vote.

She has a long history of anti-Israel activities, including participating in two attempts to breach the Israeli naval blockade of the Hamas-ruled Gaza Strip.

The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) said that McKinney has accused Israel of genocide, referred to the pro-Israel lobby as a “ruthless” entity that “rears its ugly head in too many facets of life in this country, particularly political life” and engineered her political defeats, and personally met with representatives of Hezbollah and Hamas.

She also referred to President Donald Trump as a “Zionist puppet.”

Addressing an anti-Israel audience at the DNC, a congressman likened Jewish Israelis living in Judea and Samaria to “termites.”

Rep. Hank Johnson, a Democratic member of the House Armed Services Committee, compared residents of Jewish communities in Judea and Samaria to “termites,” the Washington Free Beacon reported.

Speaking in Philadelphia at a Democratic National Convention event sponsored by the U.S. Campaign to End the Israeli Occupation, an organization that promotes Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) against the Jewish state, the congressman from Georgia stated:

“There has been a steady [stream], almost like termites can get into a residence and eat before you know that you’ve been eaten up and you fall in on yourself, there has been settlement activity that has marched forward with impunity and at an ever-increasing rate to the point where it has become alarming.”

According to Johnson, “Jewish people” routinely steal land and property from Palestinians.

Cynthia McKinney, a former member of the House of Representatives, on Sunday posted on Twitter that Israel was complicit in the recent terror attacks in Nice and Munich. Also a Democrat from Georgia, she based her libelous allegation on the fact that an Israeli photographer was present at both incidents.
