Claudia Oshry, the Internet’s ‘Girl With No Job,’ Twitter Account Is Deleted [Variety] Todd Spangler
Variety 2 March 2018
The Twitter account for internet personality Claudia Oshry Soffer, known by her online handle as the Girl With No Job, has been deleted. The disabling or suspension of her Twitter account happened after anti-Muslim tweets she sent several years ago came to light earlier this week.
The Twitter account of her sister Jackie Oshry, aka jackieoproblems, also has been deleted or suspended.
On Thursday, Verizon’s Oath division said it was immediately cancelling the sisters’ “The Morning Breath” daily social-media talk show. That came after the Daily Beast an article Wednesday about their mother, anti-Muslim agitator Pamela Geller, and the unearthing of Islamophobic tweets from both Claudia and Jackie Oshry.
The sisters’ past comments on Twitter included Claudia Oshry’s 2014 tweet, “I can’t but feel like I’m funding terrorism when I take a cab” and one from 2012 in which she said “#OBAMA is a #MUSLIM!!!! YA I SAID IT.”
Her sister Jackie, in a 2015 tweet directed to Barack Obama, said, “Hi @POTUS, Can you reimburse me for all the cabs I’m taking bc your piece shit of plan to defeat ISIS makes me scared to take the subway? Ty.” In 2012, Jackie Oshry tweeted a New York Times story about Obama’s likely visit to Israel with the comment, “No thanks! There are enough unwanted Muslims there already.”
Both Claudia and Jackie Oshry have apologized in statements posted on Instagram for their past anti-Muslim tweets. Reps for the Oshry sisters have not responded to requests for comment.
