Overview

  • The administration cited four Jewish organizations as endorsers, yet CNN reporting shows most groups were unaware of Ingrassia or never offered support.
  • Mort Klein’s Zionist Organization of America and the United States Holocaust Memorial Council confirmed they did not back him, contradicting White House assertions.
  • The Israeli Defense and Security Forum also denied familiarity with Ingrassia and issued no endorsement, leaving only the Israel Heritage Foundation among named supporters.
  • Ingrassia has just six months of federal experience and a documented history of extremist rhetoric and ties to Holocaust denier Nick Fuentes.
  • The exposure of misleading endorsement claims has eroded administration credibility and heightened bipartisan resistance ahead of his Senate confirmation.
