DOUG EMHOFF RAGES AS PRESIDENT TRUMP RECLAIMS HOLOCAUST BOARD FROM BIDEN’S POLITICAL CRONIES:
“Today, I was informed of my removal from the United States Holocaust Memorial Council. Let me be clear: Holocaust remembrance and education should never be politicized. To turn one of the worst atrocities in history into a wedge issue is dangerous — and it dishonors the memory of six million Jews murdered by Nazis that this museum was created to preserve,” Emhoff said in a statement to The Hill.
“No divisive political decision will ever shake my commitment to Holocaust remembrance and education or to combatting hate and antisemitism. I will continue to speak out, to educate, and to fight hate in all its forms—because silence is never an option,” he added.
Emhoff was just one of a handful of prominent Democrats who got the boot. Also sent packing were:
- Ron Klain, former chief of staff to Joe Biden
- Susan Rice, Biden’s director of Domestic Policy Council of the United States
- Tom Perez, former chairman of the Democratic National Committee
- Anthony Bernal, who was an advisor to former First Lady Jill Biden
Here’s the thing, though, about Emhoff’s claim that the dismissals were politically motivated: The now-dismissed slate of lefty politicos were appointed by Joe Biden on his way out of the White House. Yes, the appointments were made on January 17, 2025, in what can only be described as a last-minute, overtly political attempt to stack the Holocaust Museum board with leftists.
