I see nothing remotely anti-Semitic in this woman’s tweets. How is “jew buddies” anti-Semitic? If she wrote, “fraternity buddies,” what thought crime would that be? How about “white buddies”? “Black buddies”?
I hate to see a proud black woman taken down yet again by the Jew media.
ESPN: Miko Grimes, the wife of former Miami Dolphins and current Tampa Bay Buccaneers cornerback Brent Grimes, blasted Miami brass on Monday, using anti-Semitic language that she later tried to clarify.
In a tweet referencing Dolphins owner Stephen Ross and executive vice president of football operations Mike Tannenbaum, Miko Grimes tweeted:
Gotta respect ross for keeping his jew buddies employed but did he not see how tannenbaum put the jets in the dumpster w/that sanchez deal??

The family of her husband’s current team — the late Buccaneers owner Malcolm Glazer — Bryan, Edward and Joel Glazer and Darcie Glazer-Kassewitz — are the descendants of Jewish immigrants from Lithuania and lost family members in the Holocaust. Malcolm Glazer also contributed to the construction of the Palm Beach Synagogue before his death.
Miko Grimes later clarified on Twitter that her intent was not to offend Jewish people, tweeting: “Think I’m gonna tweet racist remarks in an attempt to offend TWO PEOPLE? Lmao!! Why would I? Why would I want to offend ‘Jewish’ ppl?”
She went further in a statement to ESPN:
“When I wrote ‘jew buddies’ I was speaking about how a lot of communities (Jewish, Christian, gay, sometimes fraternities and sororities) will hire their ‘own people’ for jobs before others. That’s a fact! Why people find facts offensive is strange to me. And now im a racist? Lmao! How?”
She added: “If what I said is racist or anti-Semitic, why isn’t it also racist to only hire their own? America is just an easily offended, fake reacting, bunch of cry baby a– p——! Anyone that thinks I’m a racist needs to build a f—— bridge and get over it. I’m not a racist, I’m a realist.”
