The headline here&#8230; It\u2019s from The Daily Caller, which is Chatsworth Osborne Jr.\u2019s website. He\u2019s now recused himself from it, by the way. That\u2019s Tucker Carlson. It\u2019s our affectionate name for him. Chatsworth Osborne Jr. from Dobie Gillis, a show from way, way back. It\u2019s a great website, by the way.

Lopez-Pierre has regularly used slurs against Jewish and black New Yorkers in public forums and while running for office himself. While running for office in 2017, Lopez-Pierre specifically campaigned on &#8216;protecting tenants from greedy Jewish landlords.\u2019 Lopez-Pierre\u2019s own campaign website shows his rantings agains[t] &#8216;Greedy Jewish Landlords.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;His campaign website applauds the arrest of &#8216;Greedy Jewish Landlords\u2019 and says that &#8216;Jewish Landlords\u2019 are &#8216;punishing\u2019 black and Hispanic families. Lopez-Pierre\u2019s twitter bio says he is protecting people from &#8216;greedy Jewish landlords.'&#8221; It is a theme here. &#8220;In May of 2018,&#8221; that would be this year, for those of you in Rio Linda, &#8220;Lopez-Pierre ranted against &#8216;Greedy Jewish landlords,\u2019 saying Jesus should put them &#8216;In Hell.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Just this month[,] Lopez-Pierre tweeted about &#8216;Greedy Jewish landlords.\u2019 Lopez-Pierre also has tweeted about threatening white people and Jewish people with violence.&#8221; Now, this ought to go over big in Queens, don\u2019t you think? (laughing) They\u2019ve gotta eat this up in Queens! &#8220;On [his] YouTube channel, Lopez-Pierre&#8221; who is a No. 1 supporter of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez &#8220;can be seen campaigning for Ocasio-Cortez. In a recent video, he is wearing a[n] Ocasio-Cortez campaign shirt and declaring that he is campaigning against &#8216;greedy landlords.\u2019<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-278070\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/APP-062818-Thomas-Lopez-Pierre-FB.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/APP-062818-Thomas-Lopez-Pierre-FB.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/APP-062818-Thomas-Lopez-Pierre-FB-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/>&#8220;The caption on the video reads: &#8216;Thomas Lopez-Pierre campaigning in the Bronx for Democratic Congressional Pro-Tenant Candidate (2018): Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez&#8230;\u2019 Lopez-Pierre also posted a video of him smiling at Ocasio-Cortez\u2019s victory party as the candidate gives a speech about inclusion and tolerance.&#8221; He\u2019s talking about &#8220;greedy, Jewish landlords. &#8230; In 2013 while running for city council, Lopez-Pierre sent a racist, homophobic email to a black supporter of his opponent, Mark Levine.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The supporter, named Brain Benjamin&#8230;&#8221; Maybe that Brian and this is just a typo, but we\u2019ll go with what it says here. The supporter, named Brain Benjamin, was called [the N-word] five times, a &#8216;[B-i-itch]\u2019 six times and saying he is a &#8216;weak, little short man who&#8230;'&#8221; Well, I can\u2019t repeat this. Stephen Colbert would, but not me. But he does very bad things with white, Jewish genitalia. &#8220;Lopez-Pierre also threatened Benjamin with violence.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>This is one of this babe\u2019s No. 1 supporters.<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s just see. Now, this in the Daily Caller. It hasn\u2019t been in the New York Times or anywhere else. Let\u2019s just see if something happens.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Well, it turns out that Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has indeed denounced this wacko, Thomas Lopez-Pierre. Now, this guy Mark Levine &#8212; the New York councilman who defeated the anti-Semite, Thomas Lopez-Pierre &#8212; tweeted that this guy Lopez-Pierre has been showing up unwanted in campaigns for years, frequently jumps into pictures with people who don\u2019t know who he is. Let\u2019s give Ocasio-Cortez a chance to denounce him and his brazen anti-Semitism before jumping to conclusions.<\/p>\n<p>Right on schedule, here comes Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, &#8220;Thank you for this opportunity and your graciousness here. I have no idea who this guy is. Hundreds of people walked into the hall open to the public last night. I absolutely denounce any such bigoted and reprehensible statements.&#8221; (crumbling up paper) So bye-bye, Lopez-Pierre, at least publicly.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: This in the Daily Caller.
