According to Andrew Torba, CEO of social media network Gab, who is a political consultant to Republican candidate for Governor of Pennsylvania, Doug Mastriano, Jews are not welcome in the conservative movement. In a livestream video, Torba said that the United States is “an explicitly Christian country and conservatives belong to an explicitly Christian movement,” The Jerusalem Post reported.
WoldIsraelNews.com Andrew Torba, CEO of social media network Gab, which is reportedly favored by the far-right, is a consultant for Doug Mastriano, the Republican candidate for governor of Pennsylvania. American outlets reported recently that Mastriano spent $5,000 on advertising on Gab as well as paying for “campaign consulting” from the platform, with users set to automatically follow him, the Post noted.
“Jewish conservatives like Ben Shapiro are dishonest. They’re liars. They’re a den of vipers and they want to destroy you. My typical conversation with them when they email me is ‘repent and accept Jesus Christ as your lord and savior.’ I take it as an opportunity to try and convert them,” Doug Mastriano’s consultant said.
“This is the most important election of the 2022 midterms because Doug is an outspoken Christian,” said Torba in the video. “We are going to build a coalition of Christian nationalists, of Christians, of Christian candidates, at the state, local and federal levels and we’re going to take this country back for the glory of God.”
“My policy is not to conduct interviews with reporters who aren’t Christian or with outlets who aren’t Christian and Doug has a very similar media strategy where he does not do interviews with these people. He does not talk to these people. He does not give press access to these people,” said the Gab founder, according to the Post.
Torba called Mastriano’s Jewish opponent, Josh Shapiro, a “Soros puppet.”Regarding non-Christian – actually, Jewish – conservative commentators Ben Shapiro and Dave Rubin, he said:
“These people aren’t conservative. They’re not Christian. They don’t share our values. They have inverted values from us as Christians. So don’t fall for the bait of Populism Inc, don’t fall for the bait of this pseudo-conservatism, big tent nonsense. This is a Christian movement. This movement needs to be centered on the gospel and truth of God’s word and of Jesus Christ, our lord and savior and king. That is the only way that this is going to work…
“We don’t want people who are atheists. We don’t want people who are Jewish. We don’t want people who are, you know, nonbelievers, agnostic, whatever. This is an explicitly Christian movement because this is an explicitly Christian country.
“We’re not saying we’re going to deport all these people or whatever. You’re free to stay here. You’re not going to be forced to convert or anything like this because that’s not biblical whatsoever. But you’re going to enjoy the fruits of living in a Christian society under Christian laws and under a Christian culture and you can thank us later.”

I never cared for his fanaticism.

I’ve got nothing against Christians running for political positions.
I do have a problem with Christians who think that conservatism is for Christians only. That could alienate a large portion of his base.
Bumbling Biden has alienated his Hispanic democratic base by throwing them under the bus. That’s to be expected because Biden is a senile potato who can’t even read a teleprompter (“end of quote. Repeat the line”).
As an atheist of Jewish heritage and a conservative with some liberal values, I’m disappointed to hear a Republican candidate say that Jews are not welcome.

I’m reeling in Horror. I never dreamed I would hear this Satanic Filth from so-called Republicans.
The Dirty, Demonic beings are NOT Christians.
ANTI-CHRIST GAB; Anti-Christ Doug Mastriano and his vile supporters are Rabid Jesus Christ Haters.
The despicable fiends have BLASPHEMED, Jesus Christ, Christianity and the Bible.
The SATANIC FILTH are who Jesus Christ warned us about in the Bible. They’re RAVENOUS WOLVES who will spend ALL of Eternity in FIERY HELL:
“Beware of the false prophets who come to you in sheep’s clothing but inwardly are RAVENOUS WOLVES.

And meanwhile in the UK, a failed local mayoral candidate has been fired from her job because in her promotional pamphlet she had the ” audacity ” to state she advocates traditional marriage.
I would have thought the name of the party she is in would have been a clue !
The Christian Peoples Alliance.
I voted for her anyway.
The statement doesn’t comply with her employers ” inclusive” policies, and is seen as anti LGBTQWERTY plus whatever they want to call themselves.
BareNakedIslam says
Unbelievable!

That’s not all, I was in my local Tesco supermarket, when a recorded message came over the PA system.
I paraphrase,
“Hi I’m XXXX, I look out for the LBGTQWERTY staff members, and if I hear anyone talk about them in an unacceptable way while they’re not in the office, I see to it the perpetrators are dealt with.”
I don’t use Tesco anymore.

OK, for the second time in a week I find myself having to remark on a BNI post.
As a Christian I am totally ashamed by the Hitler-isk remark from a campaign Consultant for repub Mastriano. When I read this my heart started beating harder and my hands started to sweat, I am appalled . I cannot believe this! We are a Judeo/Christian country founded upon Judeo/Christian principles. We have been grafted into the Jewish people Romans 11:11! We are not separate or above! Let us not forget genesis 12:3 If you bless my people( I God) will bless you. IF you you curse my people I will curse you!😡 This guy better study up if he’s going to try to throw Jewish people under the bus, dumb ass.
BareNakedIslam says
Burbs, I was kind of shocked to see that, too. But I’ve heard that Gab has a lot of anti-Semites on it. In fact, I just asked my webmaster to take the Share link to Gab off my site. This candidate was endorsed by Trump and he seems to have good conservative values, so I don’t know why he would allow a consultant of his to post this Nazi-like stuff.
Linda Rivera says
Burbs, I’m in deep shock.
Romans 11:11. Yes!!!
The Old Testament, Jewish Scriptures is an EXTREMELY important part of our Bible. Containing the Ten Commandments; other Laws, the wonderful, uplifting Psalms, the wisdom of Proverbs.
The entire Old Testament is a history of humanity and of the Jewish people. Invaluable teaching, and the hope to come.
Jews are the elder brothers and sisters of Christians.
Over the years, in addition to going to church, I have gone to many Jewish services in different synagogues. I felt I belonged there just as I felt I belonged in church.
chobers says
Christian ethics and morality are, for the most part, Jewish.

I smell a RINO, or worse. Very sad 😥
Doug Mayfield says
This is how the Republican party destroys itself. This brain dead creature, Torba, should not be allowed to empty trach unsupervised, much less have a position of authority within the Republican party. His evident antisemitism is an embarrassment to any decent human being. He is to be condemned, fired, and immediately shown the door. If not, it once again proves that members of the Republican party are nothing more than useless cowardly RINOs who cannot muster the intellectual and moral courage necessary to defeat the left and their allies.
usnveteran says
Seems Mr. Torba may be suffering from a bit of ‘foot-in-mouth-dis-ease’.
