Mike Pence isn’t your ordinary Vice President. Yesterday he spent the afternoon in St. Louis, cleaning up a vandalized Jewish cemetery with Missouri’s Governor.
H/T Independent Journal Review
“There is no place in America for hatred or acts of prejudice, or violence, or anti-Semitism. I must tell you the people of Missouri are inspiring the nation by your love and care for this place, the Jewish community in Missouri.
And I want to thank you for that inspiration, and showing the world what America is really about.”
The vandalism happened at a cemetery in University City near St. Louis.

It’s hard to believe the left can really come up with anti semiotic criticism toward the Trump administration.
President Donald Trump spoke out Tuesday against a series of recent threats against Jewish Community Centers and other Jewish institutions, but advocacy groups and political opponents said his remarks did not go far enough and are now urging a more robust federal response.
The Anne Frank Center for Mutual Respect delivered a searing statement late Tuesday morning, accusing the White House of tacitly embracing anti-Semitism with its earlier silence and for failing to specifically cite the Jewish people in its International Holocaust Remembrance Day statement last month.
“The President’s sudden acknowledgment is a Band-Aid on the cancer of anti-Semitism that has infected his own administration,” the group’s executive director, Steven Goldstein, said in a social media post. “(Trump’s) statement today is a pathetic asterisk of condescension after weeks in which he and his staff have committed grotesque acts and omissions reflecting anti-Semitism, yet day after day have refused to apologize and correct the record.”
They will complain about anything.
