A Washington D.C. lawmaker pushed a conspiracy theory on Friday that a well-known Jewish banking dynasty uses “climate manipulation” to control the weather.
Democrat D.C. Council member Trayon White Sr., Ward-8, posted a video to his official Facebook page on Friday morning as it began snowing in the District. The video, shot through the windshield of a car driving shows downtown D.C., amid snowy skies.
“Man, it just started snowing out of nowhere this morning, man,” White said, according to The Washington Post. “Y’all better pay attention to this climate control, man, this climate manipulation.”
“And that’s a model based off the Rothschilds controlling the climate to create natural disasters they can pay for to own the cities, man,” he added. “Be careful.”
The Rothschilds are a European Jewish family that once possessed the largest private fortune in the world. Their banking businesses provided the financing for government projects such as the Suez Canal. Their wealth and influence has made them the subject of several conspiracy theories, most of which are anti-Semitic.
After facing a serious backlash from Jewish groups and lawmakers, as well as a social outcry, White released a statement on Twitter apologizing to “the Jewish Community and anyone I have offended”:
I really do apologize. I work very closely with the Jewish community and never want to offend anyone, especially with Anti-Semitic remarks. pic.twitter.com/TvUgf55UeF

“I did not intend to be Anti-Semitic [sic], and I see I should not have said that after learning from my colleagues,” White said. He added that he was working to “understand the history of comment [sic] made against Jews.”
White was elected to the D.C. city council in 2016. He represents Ward 8 in the city, the seat once held by controversial former Mayor Marion Barry.

Honestly, I find this more comical than anything else.
another DEMOCRAT AND ANOTHER ANTI-SEMITE
Now Trayon, lets get this right. The next time it snows remember it’s not Rothschilds who is doing it – it’s Trump in collusion with the Russians.
“HATER: DC Council Member Apologizes After Blaming JEWS For Snow…….”
He sounds like a hater but after hearing him speak, I find him to be a stupid ignoramus who is wrapped up in his own personal world of Ebonics. Unfortunately, there are many more morons out there roaming the planet.
Eric Holder taught us that it’s all about race and party. If you are a black democrat, you can say what you want without any consequence, regardless of who gets offended. If you get caught and exposed, just apologize and everything is cool. The media will make sure it gets buried.
If it’s the other way around and it’s some obscure white Republican who says hurtful things against blacks, it’s all over. All hell breaks loose. No apologies accepted. The must resign. They must pay reparations. They receive death threats. The Thought Police in the media makes sure to rile up the dregs of society to ensure something bad happens to them or a member of their family.
I’m quite certain this goon was sitting in the audience of screwy Louis sermons
He is not just a Jew hate White is a white hater (snow is white).
Trayon White Sr. for President 2020

Unfortunately, you’re correct.
Remember: He who designs a foolproof system fails to take into account the ingenuity of fools.
These are the very idiots that cause all the grief.
Fake news as usual. No where is the word jew or jews mentioned.
I can’t wait to vote Democrat in the fall. I got an email today to buy a book about being a Jew in Trump’s America. I doubt it’s about this.
He represents ward 8.
How many mental wards are there in Washington DC
Retard.
This ditz is ignored by Blacks as well as whites in the D.C. government. He represents a lower income area of the city where they consistently vote for anyone who promises the usual “free stuff”, victimization agenda etc. Good news is that the gentrification of D.C. is spreading a more affluent and educated Black electorate into that district and should be reflected soon in the quality of elected officials. In the interim, we have to deal with minority dumpkopfs just as we deal with a large number of majority (aka white) dumpkofps in elected office. Both sides seem to have their fair share of individuals who get elected for reasons no one can understand in retrospect.
The TRUTH came out !!!!
A. There are a large part of this country who are stupid
B. There are a large sect that are hateful
C. Sometimes the TRUTH comes out
D. People will still try to cover the Truth (back to stupid)
Y’all be supposed to go back to Africa. Dem Rothschilds don’t control the climate out there.
We do control the weather! We daven mashiv haruach… And then Hashem answers! 😉
He has now clarified his apology….apparently he meant Soros, not Rothschild
Apology not accepted! If this were a white guy saying this about blacks the usual suspects including Sharpton and Jackson would demand his resignation and all of the MSM would jump on the bandwagon insisting the same.
@Big Bob
he is a self hating white
(that is his name)
This is the most interesting BLACK and WHITE story I’ve ever read!
Soros is a liberal democrat just like this guy, I highly doubt that he was referring to him
