United States Attorney John Bash attacked the white supremacist allegations that are now being associated with his wife, Zina Bash, over the way her hands rested during Tuesday’s congressional confirmation hearing for Brett Kavanaugh.
The attacks today on my wife are repulsive. Everyone tweeting this vicious conspiracy theory should be ashamed of themselves. We weren’t even familiar with the hateful symbol being attributed to her for the random way she rested her hand during a long hearing. 1/3

Bash is a former Kavanaugh clerk who previously worked in President Donald Trump’s administration. With her arms crossed, it appeared as if Bash was making an “Okay” sign on her forearm. That hand gesture is allegedly associated with white supremacy.

Zina is Mexican on her mother’s side and Jewish on her father’s side. She was born in Mexico. Her grandparents were Holocaust survivors. We of course have nothing to do with hate groups, which aim to terrorize and demean other people — never have and never would. 2/3

Her husband adamantly refuted the accusations on Twitter. He called them a “vicious conspiracy theory,” and explained that his wife is Mexican and her grandparents were Holocaust survivors.
Some of the Twitter comments have even referred to our baby daughter. I know that there are good folks on both sides of the political divide. I hope that people will clearly condemn this idiotic and sickening accusation. 3/3
