ANTISEMITISM: KCRCC’s safe harbor

The Kootenai County Republican Central Committee has openly endorsed David Reilly, a Christian antisemite who has made every effort to conceal that fact as he runs for the Post Falls school board.

The KCRCC is taking responsibility for its choice by bringing Reilly under the umbrella of its political influence and protection. They’re giving a platform, legitimacy to someone undeserving of such recognition and acceptance.

It’s a bold statement and suggests a more “rational organizational approach” to antisemitism than Richard Butler’s Aryan Nations.
