\u201cStop calling Candace Owens an anti-Semite.<\/a> She\u2019s not an anti-Semite. She just doesn\u2019t support Zionism, and that really has to stop,\u201d Boller told Dillon. \u201cI don\u2019t know why you keep bringing her up and Tucker [Carlson].\u201d<\/p>\n Dillon shot back that Owens and Carlson are the \u201ctwo most famous anti-semites,\u201d<\/a> while citing Owens\u2019 controversial remarks, such as saying her Jewish critics were from the \u201csynagogue of Satan.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cNo member of the Commission has the right to hijack a hearing for their own personal and political agenda on any issue. This is clearly, without question, what happened Monday in our hearing on antisemitism in America,\u201d Patrick wrote<\/a> while announcing Boller\u2019s removal. \u201cThis was my decision.\u201d<\/p>\n Boller rejected Patrick\u2019s assertion that he could remove her from the federal commission in a lengthy reply<\/a> on X.<\/p>\n \u201cAs the name states, this is President Trump\u2019s Religious Liberty Commission, not yours. You did not appoint me to the Commission, and you lack authority to remove me from it. This is a gross overstepping of your role and leads me to believe you are acting in alignment with a Zionist political framework that hijacked the hearing, rather than in defense of religious liberty,\u201d Boller wrote. <\/p>\n \u201cWe serve as equals on this Commission. Just as I cannot remove you, you cannot remove me.\u201d<\/p>\n She also accused Patrick\u2019s actions of reflecting a \u201cZionist political agenda,\u201d adding: \u201cI refuse to bend the knee to Israel. I am no slave to a foreign nation, but to Christ our King.\u201d<\/p>\n Boller previously drew criticism during the 2009 Miss USA contest <\/a>by stating she believed marriage should only be between a man and a woman. She has since moved into political commentary and has been highly critical of other hot-button MAGA issues, including COVID-19 restrictions.<\/p>\n![\"Carrie](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/SYNITXYVM5AKTLYOUUNJUZOMKQ.jpg\")
