At a time when Iranians are fighting and dying to be free from the Ayatollah Khamenei’s murderous, inhuman Islamic regime, it has come to light that Mandela Barnes, the Wisconsin Democrats’ far-left candidate for the Senate, praised Khamenei, a notorious Jew-hater who has repeatedly threatened genocide of the Jews in Israel. No one among the Democrats is likely to mind. Their position on the Jews and Israel is close to Khamenei’s as it is. As antisemitism has become the norm on the left, no leftist is likely to take issue with Mandela Barnes over his old tweets.
“Barnes Praises Khamenei, Hopes to Be ‘Dennis Rodman’ of the Assad Regime,” by Alana Goodman, Washington Free Beacon, October 19, 2022:
Mandela Barnes, the Democratic Senate candidate in Wisconsin, praised Iran’s supreme leader Ali Khamenei for supporting Black Lives Matter, said he wanted to be the “Dennis Rodman” of the Assad regime, and used his Twitter account to defend some of the world’s most notorious dictators and repressive regimes.
On Jan. 1, 2015, Barnes applauded a Twitter post by Khamenei that slammed the U.S. government over slavery.
“The issue of US govt oppression against blacks is a 100s year-old issue,” wrote Khamenei, adding the hashtag #BlackLivesMatter. Barnes “liked” Khamenei’s post on Twitter and responded to the Iranian leader: “The first tweet of 2015 from @khamenei_ir is #BlackLivesMatter. Let that sink in. May This be a most wonderful year for you and yours.”
Barnes’s social media posts could raise questions about the candidate’s willingness to align himself with anti-American and undemocratic leaders. The news comes as Barnes, the Wisconsin lieutenant governor and former state legislator, has faced criticism over his repeated appearances on RT, a Russian state-run news network that the U.S. State Department has described as “propaganda support for the Kremlin’s foreign policy objectives.”…

Sell him in a slave auction. For real. As we speak, there are Black slave auctions- run by muslims of course- in Libya. Islam is unbelievably racist v Blacks. Google “Simon Deng”.
This BLM fool is too stupid to know history-gets in the way of his ideology.
His handle is a kicker-“Mandela”, forsooth!

If he likes them that much over there then he should denounce his US citizenship and move over there.

How did he get such a first name, though people forget that Mandela was an admitted communist.
To openly praise such an evil Iranian devil seems to be accepted these days as some kind of campaign promise.
