A Trump-endorsed Arizona state senator is attacking Ukraine President Zelensky while pushing a myriad of conspiracy theories on her Twitter account.
“I stand with the Christians worldwide not the global bankers who are shoving godlessness and degeneracy in our face,” Wendy Rogers in one post.
“Zelensky is a globalist puppet for Soros and the Clintons,” she writes in another. Both Zelensky and Soros are Jewish, and rights groups note that “bankers” is often used as an antisemitic dog whistle.
“Macron, Ardern, Trudeau, Zelensky… they all report to the same Satanic masters,” she adds.
