(Jewish Group) Joe Rogan says 'The idea that Jewish people aren't into money is ridiculous' [View all]
Podcast host Joe Rogan once more spread racist stereotypes on a recent episode of his massively popular show, The Joe Rogan Experience.
During an episode released Feb. 4, Rogan was talking with guests Krystal Ball and Saagar Enjeti about their dislike for elected Democrats such as Nancy Pelosi and Adam Schiff. The conversation pivoted towards U.S. Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., who was accused of antisemitism in 2019 after tweeting “It’s all about the Benjamins” in reference to why American politicians defend Israel.
Omar later apologized for the tweet. Last week, House Republicans voted to remove her from the Foreign Affairs Committee, citing her alleged antisemitism.
Rogan told his hosts he doesn’t believe Omar should have apologized.
“That’s not an antisemitic statement, I don’t think that is,” he said. “The idea that Jewish people aren’t into money is ridiculous. That’s like saying Italians aren’t into pizza. That’s f–king stupid.”
