Democratic Party fundraising platform ActBlue ended the facilitation of donations for TX-35 Democratic primary candidate Maureen Galindo, the politician said, in the wake of scrutiny for her campaign promise to imprison Zionists<\/a>.<\/p>\n

ActBlue did not immediately respond to a Jerusalem Post query about the deactivation of its fundraiser, but as of Sunday, the donation page for Galindo was still not accepting donations.<\/p>\n

\u201cThank you for your interest in making a donation. At this time, the fundraiser is not accepting donations. This may be temporary,\u201d read the ActBlue donation page.<\/p>\n

Galindo\u2019s website shifted to the Quick Contribute platform to gather donations, and on Instagram proclaimed that ActBlue had shut down her donation page over \u201clies and defamation.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cClose all internment camps!\u201d Malindo said on Friday, referencing ICE facilities. \u201cArrest pedophile billionaire Zionists!\u201d<\/p>\n

After social media posts last Thursday in which \u00a0Galindo pledged to turn the Karnes County Immigration Processing Center into a prison for \u201cAmerican Zionists and former ICE officers,\u201d several major Democratic figures condemned her.<\/p>\n

On Wednesday, Democratic Party<\/a> Representatives Josh Gottheimer and Jared Moskowitz said that if Galindo entered Congress, they would force a vote to expel her every day.<\/p>\n

\u201cMaureen\u2019s insane, antisemitic views \u2013 including putting Americans in concentration camps \u00a0\u2013 have no place in our party or country,\u201d the congressmen said in a joint statement.<\/p>\n

House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries and Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee Chair Suzan DelBene released a Tuesday statement condemning her and blaming the Republican Party campaign for propping her up.<\/p>\n

Galindo claims media twisted her words<\/p>\n

Galindo<\/a> issued a press release on Friday, arguing that she had never uttered the words \u201cinternment camps\u201d and that the media had twisted and misrepresented her words.<\/p>\n

\u201cShe does want Karnes ICE facility to be turned into a prison for the billionaire Zionists who have profited off genocidal prison state materials and trafficking. Prosecution has nothing to do with religion,\u201d Galindo clarified in her statement. \u201cIt\u2019s their behaviors and actions that will be judged. It\u2019s also true she wants a whole department and TV channel of exposing pedophiles and yes, sending them for castration at Karnes Prison, then moved to prisons with violent criminals.\u201d<\/p>\n

Galindo has claimed that Zionists sought to conquer the US using Immigration and Customs Enforcement and the Department of Homeland Security to occupy the country, asserting that the former was trained by the IDF and the latter was based in Israel.<\/p>\n

The politician has also claimed that the \u201cbillionaire Zionists,\u201d which supposedly orchestrated human trafficking in southern Texas, also controlled her Democratic primary opponent, Bexar County Sheriff\u2019s Deputy Johnny Garcia, and called for him to be put on trial for treason.<\/p>\n

Galindo has defended herself from accusations of antisemitism<\/a> by repeatedly claiming that Zionist Jews were not real Jews. Zionists are European colonizers, according to Galindo, in contrast to the \u201cindigenous people to the Middle East and Northern Africa Region,\u201d whom she dubbed Semites. Consequently, Zionism was supposedly the real antisemitism, she said in a social media post last Thursday, gushing about the support she was receiving over such comments.<\/p>\n
