It’s not just the dogs and the cats. There are full-on vampires, and everybody still thinks I’m crazy. But I’m not crazy. They’re full-on vampires. They love the taste of human flesh, and they drink human blood. They do. By the time we go in to vote for Trump, that he will open up everybody’s eyes and they will stop pretending to be asleep. You know what they say. You can’t wake people up that are pretending to be asleep. But I pray to God, please wake up. Even those who are pretending to be asleep with the irrefutable truth of what the worst people on this planet are really up to. They are really up to that. They’re doing it. There are so many victims. There are so many victims!

As the article points out, it's never clear who "they" are.

Isn't it weird who Tucker Carlson surrounds himself with?

This is the weirdest part of her doing the blood libel thing, although maybe it's because of the whole Mormon thing? I don't know.

Barr was born in Salt Lake City, Utah to a Jewish family. She is the oldest of four children born to Helen (née Davis), a bookkeeper and cashier, and Jerome Hershel "Jerry" Barr,[8] a salesman.[9] Her father's family were Jewish emigrants from the Russian Empire, and her maternal grandparents were Jewish emigrants from Austria-Hungary and Lithuania.[8] Her paternal grandfather changed his surname from "Borisofsky" to "Barr" upon entering the United States.[9] Barr's great-grandparents were murdered during the Holocaust.[10]

Her Jewish upbringing was influenced by her devoutly Orthodox Jewish maternal grandmother.[9] Barr's parents kept their Jewish heritage secret from their neighbors and were partially involved in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.[9] Barr has stated, "Friday, Saturday, and Sunday morning I was a Jew; Sunday afternoon, Tuesday afternoon, and Wednesday afternoon we were Mormons."[11]
