The White House is hosting a social media summit this Thursday, and cartoonist Ben Garrison is among the guests.
Honored to be invited to the White House! Thank You Mr. President! @realDonaldTrump #SocialMediaSummit pic.twitter.com/8b6zIa2XN3

If you’re unfamiliar with Garrison’s oeuvre, here’s a sample:
Ben Garrison, who drew this cartoon, will be a guest at the White House on Thursday for the social media summit.
It’s important to note the name in the upper right hand corner. The Rothschilds have been the subject of Anti-Semitic conspiracy theories for centuries. pic.twitter.com/fgp4ZPn8GA

That cartoon was reportedly commissioned from Garrison by alt-right conspiracy theorist Mike Cernovich.
More from CNBC:
White House spokesman Judd Deere said last month the meeting would “bring together digital leaders for a robust conversation on the opportunities and challenges of today’s online environment.”
We’re dying to know how Garrison’s viciously anti-Semitic “art” will contribute to this “robust conversation.”
Trump is the most pro-Israel president in US history, you should be ashamed of yourself.

Yashar Ali should be ashamed of himself for shining a light on anti-Semitism? Please. Donald Trump’s policy toward Israel has no bearing whatsoever on the fact that the White House is inviting someone like Garrison to be part of their social media “conversation.”

This is a guy who talks with no sense of irony about “the Illuminati.” Honestly, he’ll fit right in on Thursday. https://t.co/O8OsI8NBNo

I’m not even sure that’s a top 10 most offensive Garrison cartoon, tbh. The competition is so stiff.

Yeah if I had the stomach for it now I'd go through, but honestly remember seeing much worse from him

The giant skull eating Syria with the Star of David on it comes to mind.

So yeah. This is par for the course with Garrison. And apparently the White House is OK with that.
Disgusting

Utterly, utterly repugnant. "Rothschilds" playing puppet-master is an old, odious anti-Semitic trope. https://t.co/TxAgYfWYog

We’ll leave you with this from Spectator columnist and senior Federalist contributor Daniella Greenbaum Davis:
true friends to the Jews will condemn anti-Semitism whether it appears on the right or left. Bigotry is not partisan. https://t.co/QwBt5w2NtY
