Husband of Kamala Harris calls move political and decries turning historical atrocity into ‘a wedge issue’
The Trump administration has fired several members of the US Holocaust Memorial Council appointed by Joe Biden, including Doug Emhoff, the husband of Kamala Harris.
Emhoff described the move as a political decision that turned “one of the worst atrocities in history into a wedge issue”.
He said he had been informed on Tuesday of his removal from the board, which oversees the US Holocaust Memorial Museum and other Holocaust commemorations.
“Let me be clear: Holocaust remembrance and education should never be politicized,” Emhoff said in a statement. “To turn one of the worst atrocities in history into a wedge issue is dangerous – and it dishonors the memory of six million Jews murdered by Nazis that this museum was created to preserve.”
Why did they fire him when he is a foremost Holocaust expert? His wife is literally nicknamed “Holocaust Harris”.
Oh no, you’re offending the liberals.
Like Harris and her husband didn’t make a complete mockery of the memory of the Holocaust already.
