Trump Nominee Jeremy Carl Champions 'Anti-White Racism,' Calls for the Death Penalty for Teachers Union Chief



https://globalextremism.org/post/trump-nominee-jeremy-carl-champions-anti-white-racism/



In April 2023, Jeremy Carl, a senior fellow at the Project 2025-supporting Claremont Institute, posted a message on X about Randi Weingarten, president of the American Federation of Teachers. “If the U.S. were a serious nation,” Carl wrote, “Weingarten would be tried for crimes against America’s children and would get the death penalty.” Weingarten, who is openly gay and Jewish, had become a target of conservative anger over COVID school closures. Two years later, on June 16, 2025, the Senate received Carl’s nomination for Assistant Secretary of State for International Organizations. The Yale graduate and senior fellow at the Claremont Institute — a key organization behind Project 2025 — would oversee U.S. policy at the United Nations if confirmed. He served as Deputy Assistant Secretary of the Interior during Trump’s first term.

Before the nomination became public, Carl scrubbed the Weingarten post. He also deleted roughly 5,000 tweets that summer, CNN reports. The social media posts he attempted to erasee reveal a pattern. “American whites are victims of a cultural genocide,” Carl wrote in The American Mind. “The great replacement is real,” he posted in 2021, “and they’re going to try to make you pay for it.” In February 2022, he became more explicit: “We must utterly defeat the Great Replacement as a political strategy, and permanently remove from power all who advance it.” The “Great Replacement” theory is a racist conspiracy theory that alleges that political elites in the United States, often Jews, are secretly conspiring to “replace” the “native” white population with a non-white, immigrant population in order to win elections, and has been a primary factor promoting white supremacist terrorism globally over the past decade

Asked on the Liz Wheeler Show in 2024 whether such rhetoric could lead to violence, Carl said: “The history of multiracial and multi-ethnic polities is not necessarily the [rosiest] one. I mean, often they do kind of end up fighting against each other in kind of some pretty brutal and bloody ways.” On March 15, 2019, a gunman walked into two mosques in Christchurch, New Zealand and killed 51 people. He titled his manifesto “The Great Replacement.” On May 14, 2022, an 18-year-old white supremacist drove to a predominantly Black neighborhood in Buffalo, New York, and killed 10 Black people. Prior to the shooting he posted a manifesto citing the Great Replacement conspiracy theory. On May 6, 2023, a shooter whose writings were saturated with replacement theory rhetoric killed eight people at an Allen, Texas outlet mall.

Carl’s stance on anti-white racism resonated with conservative media and he made the rounds on far-right podcasts. Carl appeared on The Tucker Carlson Show and made multiple appearances on The Charlie Kirk Show, where he and Kirk discussed how the Civil Rights Act created a “beast” and an “anti-white weapon.” These appearances promoted his book The Unprotected Class: How Anti-White Racism Is Tearing America Apart. In August 2024, he told host Liz Wheeler that “one of the most severe, even existential threats facing our country today is racial hatred, discrimination against white people.” Progressives who hate white people, he said, created a system where “more qualified white people are being passed over” and, “something like 98% of interracial rape murders” target whites. Carl’s claim has no basis in federal crime statistics. The FBI does not track a category called ‘interracial rape murders,’ and FBI statistics report that most violent crimes are intraracial.

Hold that thought on the death penalty.
Especially how it is called for when treason is committed. We will get back to you on that, say around 2028?
