Evidence (2022-11-09): The @GovGlanforte account made its first tweet at around 5 p.m. Wednesday: "Every day is meat day in Montana!" That tweet was followed by a series of others that reworked the governor's actual recent tweets, including one where Gianforte visited a shop class at Capital High School. [...] On Tuesday, Gianforte — the actual Gianforte — tweeted, "On this day in 1889, Montana was admitted to the Union as the 41st state. May God continue to bless the Last Best Place." The tweet was accompanied, with photo credit, by four photos taken by Helena Independent Record photographer Thom Bridge: one of a rodeo, one of mountains, one of the Capitol and one of an old cowboy. [...] Then, just like the gray check mark that made the account look real, @GovGlanforte was gone from Twitter. The account had been suspended by 6 p.m.

Claim: Montana Governor Gianforte Tweeted that wife ‘immaculately conceived’ their child (Viral Post, 2023-01-26)
Evidence (2023-03-01): After Roe v. Wade was overturned in June, state elected officials voiced their support for the rightward, religiously conservative shift of the Supreme Court. Montana’s Republican governor, Greg Gianforte, called the reversal a "historic win for life," and began a push for the state’s Supreme Court to revisit the ruling that protected aspects of the privacy clause. In 2021, one state lawmaker even called Montana’s Constitution a "socialist rag" that "we need to throw out." [...] Women and children land at Safe Space for a number of reasons. There’s a shortage of affordable places to live: Montanans have seen the cost of housing jump statewide, and in Butte, the median home price increased from $159,000 in 2020 to almost $300,000 just three years later. There’s the statewide fentanyl, methamphetamine and opioid epidemic: In October, Gov. Gianforte declared a crisis in Butte-Silver Bow, which, from 2011 to 2020, had a higher per capita rate of opioid-related deaths than Montana’s other populous counties. That crisis can have particularly devastating consequences for women.

Evidence (2023-10-17): The video shows Trump at a rally saying, "Israel has hypnotized the world. May Allah awaken the people and help them to see the evil doings of Israel and the United States." The post has received more than 116,000 likes. [...] Technically, Trump did say this. At a 2019 campaign rally in Minneapolis, while discussing Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar, Trump said, "Omar wrote that ‘Israel has hypnotized the world. May Allah awaken the people and help them to see the evil doings of Israel and the United States.'" [...] In November 2012, when fighting had erupted over the Gaza Strip, Omar wrote on Twitter, "Israel has hypnotized the world, may Allah awaken the people and help them see the evil doings of Israel." That was about six years before she took office in 2019, becoming one of the first two Muslim women elected to Congress. Omar has since called her words in that tweet "unfortunate."

Evidence (2019-07-16): This was not the first time that Omar had been criticized for being anti-Semitic, though. As she was running for Congress last year, an old tweet of hers criticizing Israel surfaced.

When the issue arose, she said that her comments were meant as criticism of "the apartheid Israeli regime."

Evidence (2024-10-08): Given their effectiveness as an emotional tool, Brooks thinks such sharing of conspiracy theories has become the most powerful community bonding mechanism of the 21st century.[289] Conspiracy theories usually have a strong political component[299] and books such as Hofstadter's The Paranoid Style in American Politics describe the political efficacy of these alternate takes on reality. Some attribute Trump's political success to making such narratives a regular staple of Trumpist rhetoric, such as the purported rigging of the 2016 election to defeat Trump, that climate change is a hoax perpetrated by the Chinese, that Obama was not born in the United States, multiple conspiracy theories about the Clintons, that vaccines cause autism and so on.[300] One of the most popular though disproven and discredited conspiracy theories is QAnon, which asserts that top Democrats run an elite child sex-trafficking ring and President Trump is making efforts to dismantle it. An October 2020 Yahoo-YouGov poll showed that these QAnon claims are mainstream, not fringe beliefs among Trump supporters, with both elements of the theory said to be true by fully half of Trump supporters polled.[287][288]
Claim: purports Trump said 'Israel has hypnotized the world' (Video, 2023-02-11)
Evidence (2019-02-13): As one of the most prominent new members of Congress (she has 538,000 Twitter followers), Omar has an opportunity that few ever get. Instead of spending her first few weeks on Capitol Hill pushing a progressive agenda, she’s had to defend herself from accusations of anti-Semitism. Before the latest blow-up, she had already had to address a 2014 tweet saying that Israel "hypnotized the world." What a waste of precious time when you have a real chance to help shape the trajectory of your party’s politics.
Claim: purports Trump said 'Israel has hypnotized the world' (Video, 2023-02-11)
Evidence (2019-10-24): In supporting the BDS movement but issuing a general call to action against sanctions, Omar has embodied that double standard, once again proving that she is no friend to the Jews. Having already tweeted that she believes "Israel has hypnotized the world," and having already engaged in classic anti-Semitic tropes about Jews and money for which she apologized, I can’t help but think of Maya Angelou’s timeless warning: When people show you who they are, believe them.
Claim: purports Trump said 'Israel has hypnotized the world' (Video, 2023-02-11)
Evidence (2023-03-28): Both the far right and left today have sought to frame Jews as being a part of global conspiracies. This is easier to notice on the right, with the recent tour of hate led by Kanye West (with the help of Neo-Nazi Nick Fuentes), where the rapper repeated decades old antisemitic conspiracies about Jews controlling the film industry, the banking industry, and the music industry. These suggestions of Jews being apart of international conspiracies are not isolated to the far right though. On the "left" we can see Congresswoman Ilhan Omar claiming Jewish people "bought support" for Israel as well as how Israel has "hypnotized the world." While these statements seem "less" antisemitic, they are very much rooted in ideas based on antisemitic theories, the same theories which Kanye West’s rants were based on.
Claim: purports Trump said 'Israel has hypnotized the world' (Video, 2023-02-11)
Evidence (2024-02-07): In 2012, Omar said, "Israel has hypnotized the world," which draws on tropes about Jews as hypnotic conspirators. And in 2018, Omar said Israel’s influence is "all about the Benjamins," a reference to a Puff Daddy song, to communicate Israel’s lobbying power. A large number of Jewish groups condemned Omar’s words for relying on antisemitic tropes. Omar subsequently apologized for both remarks.

Evidence (2024-08-06): Notably, both these congresswomen have been vocal in their disdain for Israel, with Omar saying, "Israel has hypnotized the world, may Allah awaken the people and help them see the evil doings of Israel," and Tlaib calling Israel’s actions in Gaza "genocide."

[...] The report is based on survey responses from 402 people who lived, worked or owned businesses in West Maui and Kula at the time of the wildfires. Respondents were generally representative of the 12,000 residents and 6,000 people who commuted to these areas before the fires, researchers said. There was a higher share of low-income individuals among participants but not to a degree that would overturn the report’s conclusions, Bond-Smith said.

Evidence (2023-08-22): The flames of the Maui fires have engulfed a community in grief, displacing thousands of locals, burning down more than 2,500 acres, destroying artifacts and museums in historic towns, and taking down the homes of hundreds more since early August. [...] While much of the world recognizes Hawaii as a lush paradise, the Aloha state has the fifth highest rate of homelessness when compared to all other U.S. states, territories, and Washington, D.C. At the center of the issue lies a complicated relationship with tourism—which fuels but can also harm the state—and rising living and housing costs. While shelters were already working to help house families and individuals with unstable living conditions, the Maui fires have further exacerbated the issue, leaving thousands more unhoused and further tightening the already limited housing supply in Maui. [...] The fires have also impacted families that had recently found housing through the Family Life Center. Kelly tells TIME that the day after the fires, at least five leases for families who were going to be placed into permanent housing were revoked. In the following days, the center also started getting calls from former patrons who told Kelly they were being evicted after recently being placed into homes.
