(JEWISH GROUP) US Congressman blasts Puka Nacua for antisemitic dance on livestream
It’s been a rough few weeks off the field for Los Angeles Rams receiver Puka Nacua. Most recently, he’s come under fire for his actions during a livestream with two internet personalities, Adin Ross and N3on.
In one clip from the stream, Nacua is seen doing an antisemitic dance where he spins a dreidel and rubs his hands together. It’s an antisemitic trope known as the “Covetous Jew,” aimed at mocking Jewish people.
Nacua promised Ross he’ll perform the dance if he scores a touchdown.
“You promise?” Ross asks.
Nacua: “I promise. I got you, bro.”
It's unclear if Nacua knew the meaning of the dance when he performed it on the stream and promised to do it during a game.
