JEWISH GROUP: Holocaust denier poised to claim GOP nomination in Illinois race for Congress

THIS IS THE JEWISH GROUP. RESPECT!

https://chicago.suntimes.com/news/holocaust-denier-arthur-jones-republican-3rd-congressional-district-lipinski-newman/

Arthur Jones — an outspoken Holocaust denier, activist anti-Semite and white supremacist — is poised to become the Republican nominee for an Illinois congressional seat representing parts of Chicago and nearby suburbs.

“Well first of all, I’m running for Congress not the chancellor of Germany. All right. To me the Holocaust is what I said it is: It’s an international extortion racket,” Jones told the Chicago Sun-Times.

Indeed, Jones’ website for his latest congressional run includes a section titled “The ‘Holocaust Racket’” where he calls the genocide carried out by the German Nazi regime and collaborators in other nations “the biggest blackest lie in history.”

Jones, 70, a retired insurance agent who lives in suburban Lyons, has unsuccessfully run for elected offices in the Chicago area and Milwaukee since the 1970s.


THE REPUBLICAN PARTY: THE NEW (and old) PARTY OF THE NEO-NAZIS.

Overton Window keeps moving to the right, people...... only 5 or so years ago this would have been unthinkable.

It's a safely Democratic district, where there hasn't been a Republican elected in 27 years.

Hence why this idiot can get on the Republican ballot: no one else bothered.

He's a loon who has been running for various offices for 20 years.

This is not the extreme end of the Republican Party. This is simply the Republican Party.
