Of course, it don’t count, onaccounta Mr. B. is from the late unlamented U.S.S.R., and therefore almost certainly White — i.e., not brown,black,red,or purple (yellow don’t count anyways); and even worse he’s Jewish! So for both reasons he is an angel of Shaytan and speaketh with forked tongue.

Even more, thanks for the info on the razocharovanty, a term I’ve never come across before, especially the fact that they went back to the good ol’ Motherland, found she just didn’t suit, and came back.

The same thing, by the way, happened with my mother-in-law’s parents, who came here from Hungary shortly after the turn of the century. My Honey’s grandma gave birth to his mother in NYC, but decided she just couldn’t stand it here, and dragged the family back to a normal country, namely Hungary. After three years there, she decided she’d made a mistake, so they all trooped back here, and remained for the rest of their lives.

Edward, thanks for the PJ Media link. Mr. Steinberg sounds downright annoyed!

Tangentially, from Edward’s link above, a quote from Mr. Steinberg’s piece in which he not-so-gently chides the Strib for its lack of interest in presenting any less-than-laudatory material on Mizz Omar. He notes that the Minneapolis Star-Tribune is not the only bad guy on the block vis-a-via Omar, not to mention — well, see for yourself:

…[T]he Washington Examiner — having mostly passed on our Omar story for three years until the Star Tribune deemed it an acceptable topic — flew a reporter to Minneapolis. The reporter published an article on Omar which was a duplicate of virtually all of our work as well. It was touted by the reporter as an “EXCLUSIVE”. The reporter praised herself on social media for flying to Minneapolis and finding so much evidence in just 48 hours.

Migosh! Edit is back!! YAY!!!

I don’t think you read my entire answer about Jews and being “brown.” The word “brown” is in quotes for a reason. It’s not about the color of the skin. It’s about being a favored victim group as designated by the left, and the Jews are not, no matter how dark their skin. I even mentioned the darkness of certain Sephardic Jews (from Ethiopia) and how they are only considered “brown” by the left when the left is trying to say Israel discriminates against them. “Brownness” is a totally political designation by the left, not an anthropological or biological one.

And I’m merely describing it, not ascribing to it.

If trump’s accusations get minimal mentions even in cnn and other liberal outlets, liberal media choosing to sweep it under the rug instead of debunking the accusations with hard evidence and weaponize the false accusations to hurt trump and paint him as racist is a tell there is at least probable cause

One possible reason I have seen given for Trump’s stand is that–given the numerous pieces of documentary and other evidence that have recently come to light about Omar’s possible Immigration fraud in entering this country, her actual family name and family, her marital status, and tax filings, etc.–it is possible that the DOJ has opened an investigation into Omar, and all these potential violations of Immigration and other Federal laws.

If that is the case, Trump does not want to give any ammunition to his opponents to be able to say that Trump had animus against and was persecuting Omar, if and when Omar is indicted, prosecuted, convicted, and potentially stripped of her U.S. Citizenship, her membership in Congress (can’t be a member of Congress if you aren’t a legitimate citizen of the U.S, now can you?), and deported back to Somalia.

If these allegations are, indeed, true, can you actually see the DOJ prosecuting Omar?

Can you actually see our left-leaning and gutless government stripping Omar of a fraudulently obtained citizenship and deporting her?

Can you see our current Congress revoking her membership in that supposedly august body?

What a firestorm those actions, if taken, would create!

That’s why I doubt that–however merited such a prosecution and the actions to follow guilty verdicts might be–they will never happen.

But of course she has a decent explanation (she always does):
…a false charge “that I will not dignify with an answer.”

“…and that’s all ye need to know…”

“Jews are never “brown”—except perhaps…”

Might this mean that you haven’t seen too dark-complexioned Ashkenazim. Or Cochin—or other Indian—Jews lately? Or Jews originally from North Yemen (as opposed to Aden)?….

avi: I once had a Mexican co-worker named Jaime Del Palacio. A very special guy. But he hardly looked Mexican at all. Pale blue eyes, silky ash-blonde hair, fair skin.

That was Jaime of the Palace.

Yes, to fight back is the answer. Not every single thing Trump does or says to fight back is quite right, though. But he is spot on far more often than not. And accepting the left’s definition of things, and their accusations of racism, is absolutely not the way to go.

They need to be challenged. Racism exists. But a great great deal of what they call racism is not racism at all.
