The Oklahoma Republican Partyâs anti-Semitic Facebook post â and a far-right Senate candidateâs defense of the party â represent both an age-old discriminatory sentiment and a new wave of radical Republicanism, scholars and experts say.
While other Oklahoma Republicans told The Transcript they condemn the state GOPâs Friday Facebook post â which equated restrictions for the unvaccinated with Jewish Europeans being forced to wear gold stars during the Holocaust â Senate candidate Jackson Lahmeyer said he stands by and supports the partyâs anti-Semitic messaging. Lahmeyer is endorsed by John Bennett, chair of the state Republican Party.
