Jonathan Greenblatt, the ADL's director, has said that Sarsour's support of BDS "encourages and spreads anti-Semitism".<ref name="Sales">{{cite news|title=[http://www.jta.org/2017/05/02/news-opinion/united-states/linda-sarsour-why-the-palestinian-american-activist-has-courted-controversy Linda Sarsour: Why the Palestinian-American activist is controversial]|agency=Jewish Telegraphic Agency |date=May 2, 2017}}</ref> Sarsour has refused to condemn Farrakhan's extremely anti-Semitic rhetoric.<ref name=jpost>{{cite news|title=[https://www.jpost.com/American-Politics/Womens-March-leaders-refuse-to-condemn-Farrakhan-after-antisemitic-speech-544074 Women’s March leaders refuse to condemn Farrakhan after antisemitic speech ]|work=The Jerusalem Post|date=March 3, 2018}}</ref> Sarsour has called for adherents of [[Islam]] to carry out [[jihad]] against [[President Trump]] and has praised Imam Siraj Wahhaj,<ref><small>Siraj Wahhaj has said, "It is my duty and our duty as Muslims to replace the [[U.S. Constitution]] with the Quran."

===Green New Deal and Amazon===
Rep. [[Carolyn Maloney]] of [[New York]], who also supports the [[Green New Deal]], was livid when her fellow [[Communist]]s killed the prospect of [[Amazon.com|Amazon]] bringing its main headquarters to New York and creating 25,000 jobs with wages averaging $150,000.<ref>https://youtu.be/nnVS-Zah54k</ref> Elizabeth Warren and [[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez]] took credit for killing the deal.
Amazon was promised up to $1.5 billion in tax abatements in exchange for the promise of creating 25,000 jobs. Ocasio-Cortez believes a tax abatement is a bucket of cash the government can spend on subways or teachers. Warren called the tax incentives "bribes." Warren tweeted {{quotebox|"How long will we allow giant [[corporation]]s to hold our democracy hostage?"<ref>https://www.cnn.com/2019/02/14/politics/amazon-aoc-democrats-future/index.html</ref>}}
