Mediaite reports:
Arizona GOP gubernatorial nominee Kari Lake rescinded her endorsement of an anti-Semitic GOP candidate who said “Jews will go to hell.” Kari Lake had endorsed Jarrin Jackson, the Republican nominee for Oklahoma’s Senate District 2, on Thursday.
According to The Oklahoman, Jackson has said “all Jews will go to hell if they don’t believe the gospel of Jesus Christ … just like everybody else” and “I love Jews because Christ told me to, not because they deserve it.”
He’s also said that he’s not “beholden to Jews or any other group” and “I ain’t owned by the Jews. I worship Jesus Christ. He’s my Messiah.” In addition to anti-Semitism, Jackson also has a history of homophobic remarks, according to The Oklahoman.
Axios reports:
What Lake is saying: “I looked at Jarrin’s resume as (a) Combat Veteran in Afghanistan. It is impossible to dig into everything someone has said in their life. If his reported comments are true, I obviously rescind my endorsement.”
“I respect Jarrin’s service to our Nation, but clearly denounce that kind of derogatory language. Let me be clear: Our great movement welcomes anyone and everyone who wants to fight for a better future,” Lake said in a statement provided to Axios Phoenix.

Self-proclaimed “American Patriot” Jarrin Jackson would love nothing more than to shoot godless commies in the face, but since he’s “a law-abiding patriot,” he won’t do that “because that’s illegal. Or is it?” pic.twitter.com/xY41l4L1hA
