Oh boy….is this schaudenfrau (sp?) or what?!
By way of background, a few years ago this DC Council member blamed Jews for causing a big snowstorm, so that “the greedy Jews can make money with their snow plow companies” - a antisemitic conspiracy theory that Farrakhan had peddled just a week prior. DC Jews wanted the guy ousted, but the liberals rallied around him, said they weren’t going to let Jews push them around, and….no surprise….the antisemite retained his seat, and was later re-elected.
So what has this antisemitic liberal done now? Apparently, Trayon White has taken bribes for granting city contracts, and a full investigation is underway. For now, he is being stripped of his chairmanship of the committee that grants those contracts.
