Dem candidate who called for imprisoning 'Zionists' blames her own party, media for backlash
Democratic House candidate Maureen Galindo faced backlash for proposing legislation to imprison 'American Zionists,' which she claims was mischaracterized by journalists and her own party. Galindo blamed the DCCC and her runoff opponent Johnny Garcia for fueling controversy over her comments, while maintaining she never called for internment camps but rather the imprisonment of 'billionaire American Zionists' involved in what she called 'genocidal prison systems.'
