Trump Pentagon aide penned antisemitic tirades — and called for deporting senator: report

Trump administration Department of Defense deputy press secretary Kingsley Wilson is facing scrutiny for a lengthy history of posting antisemitic rants on social media, Jewish Insider reported — along with other inflammatory statements and conspiracy theories.

Wilson, a former aide to Office of Management and Budget Director Russ Vought and the daughter of former Trump campaign strategist Steve Cortes, recently made the news for going out of her way to defend the Trump administration's purge of top officers at the Pentagon.

She's now under fire over posts that experts say are antisemitic.

"In social media posts that are now drawing particularly fierce scrutiny, Wilson attacked the Anti-Defamation League for memorializing the lynching of Leo Frank, a Jewish man who is widely believed to have been wrongly convicted of raping and murdering a child over a century ago in Atlanta," wrote Matthew Kassel. "'Leo Frank raped and murdered a 13-year-old girl,' Wilson wrote in response to the ADL in 2023, repeating her claim just over a year later. 'He also tried to frame a black man for his crime. The ADL is despicable.'"

This is far from her only extremist outing, however, the report continued.

"Wilson has frequently boosted the antisemitic 'Great Replacement Theory'; celebratedChristian nationalism; called Robert E. Lee, the Confederate general, 'one of the greatest Americans to ever live'; praised the far-right Alternative for Germany party, which has downplayed the Holocaust, while using a slogan with ties to neo-Nazis; suggested that women should not be police officers; and compared the murder of Israeli babies by Hamas to abortion shortly after the Oct. 7, 2023 attacks, among other claims."

In addition to her adamant opposition to any U.S. support of Israel in the fight against Hamas, she has also expressed sympathy for Russia's Vladimir Putin and raged against any U.S. military aid to Ukraine against the Russian invasion, saying, “The only place U.S. troops should be sent is the southern border.” (No U.S. troops have been sent to Ukraine.) She even went so far as to say the U.S. should "deport" Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) and "ship" him to the front lines of the Ukraine war.

Graham has historically been one of Ukraine's most outspoken defenders in the Senate, but more recently has defended Trump's 180-degree reversal of U.S. policy in Ukraine's defense.
