(Jewish Group) Former Spy Accused Of Anti-Semitism Eyeing Senate Run

(THIS IS THE JEWISH GROUP! RESPECT!!)

Former CIA spy Valerie Plame Wilson is considering a run for the United States Senate in New Mexico, the Washington Examiner reported Friday.

One early obstacle for Plame Wilson, should she choose to run, is an anti-Semitism controversy: She was criticized in September 2017 for tweeting links to anti-Semitic articles, including a column titled “American Jews Are Driving America’s Wars” and another called “The Dancing Israelis” that insinuated the Mossad was involved in the 9/11 attacks. Plame at first defended her sharing of the “Jews drive wars” article, arguing, “many neocon hawks ARE Jewish.” But she eventually apologized and resigned from her position on the board of the Ploughshares Fund, an anti-nuclear not-for-profit foundation. She has not tweeted since.

Plame Wilson told the Examiner on Friday that she would “like another opportunity to serve my country” and would run as a Democrat. The seat will open up in 2020 after the retirement of incumbent Sen. Tom Udall.

1. With the titles like that I don't by her apology or excuse that she was unaware

2. Man, I must be cause

Moving to NM and all.

These twits are everywhere. I can't escape. Makes me regret even more not making aliyah in 1948. I was SO close.

I'm pretty unimpressed by the Democrat Party in NM. Bill Richards was not a great guy, and his shadow is large.

The only thing that impresses me less is the Republican Party in NM, which is basically the oil drilling party. Think Sarah Palin with a Hispanic surname.

Lots of corruption; been that way since Billy the Kid (who I have since learned was the good guy having recently toured Lincoln, NM).
