Republican Congressional Candidate Tells Muslim Congresswomen They Should ‘Consider Leaving Before I Get There,’ Adds ‘#BombsAway’

Michael Luciano Nov 26th, 2024, 9:41 pm


A Republican running for a congressional seat that will soon be vacant appeared to threaten Reps. Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib by telling them they should consider quitting Congress, adding, “#BombsAway.”

Florida state Sen. Randy Fine is running in Florida’s Sixth Congressional District, which is currently represented by Mike Waltz. President-elect Donald Trump nominated Waltz as National Security Advisor, which means Waltz will need to resign from Congress to take the position.

Fine, who is Jewish, touted the endorsement of the Republican Jewish Coalition on Tuesday by referring to himself as the “Hebrew Hammer” while tagging Omar and Tlaib in a tweet.

“The “Hebrew Hammer” is coming,” he wrote. “@RashidaTlaib and @IlhanMN might consider leaving before I get there. #BombsAway.”............

ridiculous ignorant "Jewish States of America" post before it was deleted (at least, I assume from responses that that's what it said). I'd thought that the recommendation to self-delete was for another post saying that if Omar and Tlaib said anything about it in their defense, it'd be called antisemitic. My bad, I needed to pay better attention.

I'm in the congressional district next to Omar's and I get really sick of her being labeled antisemitic every time she opens her mouth. And I'm really tired of both antisemitism and Islamaphobia both!

Someone making bomb threats to four sitting Representatives (and one new one) is coming to the Capitol in January. They may want to take him in for questioning.

I would assume such threats are a crime.

folks like Musk, MTG, RFK jr, and even Trump himself do not like Jews either. The support of Israel is in the hope that you wont chllange them when the teache try to make/trick your children into converting.

I know I'm being petty but this Nazi is being threatening. So, I think being petty in response to threats of death is perfectly reasonable.

He reminds me of a Weeble, a Nazi Weeble.

The first Muslims to arrive in America were enslaved people from West Africa. Today, Muslims make up an enormous 1.34% of the US population. Run!!!

I imagine this Floridian Lion of Judah would prefer 0.00%, starting with Congress.
