Ms. Rachel (Rachel Griffin Accurso), the kids\u2019 YouTube star known for upbeat educational videos, posted a tearful apology after an Instagram mishap made it look like she endorsed an antisemitic comment. She had shared a post calling for \u201cFree Palestine, Free Sudan, Free Congo, Free Iran,\u201d and a user replied with the antisemitic phrase \u201cFree America from the Jews.\u201d A screenshot circulated showing Ms. Rachel had \u201cliked\u201d that comment, which sparked backlash and confusion among some followers. She later said it was an accident\u2014she meant to remove the comment but hit \u201clike and hide\u201d instead\u2014and emphasized she deletes antisemitic comments whenever she sees them. In an emotional video, she apologized to anyone who thought she agreed with it, stating she does not and noting she has Jewish family and friends. Many followers, including some Jewish fans, responded that they believed it was an honest mistake based on her character.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The text also includes a separate controversy involving Haliey Welch, the viral \u201cHawk Tuah\u201d creator, who became tied to a meme coin called $HAWK. Reports describe the coin\u2019s value collapsing rapidly shortly after launch, prompting accusations of a \u201crug pull,\u201d where insiders allegedly sell off holdings and crash the price. In a leaked podcast episode with FaZe Banks, Welch appears in tears, saying she feels terrible for people affected and claiming it didn\u2019t go as planned, while Banks later publicly blamed her team for mishandling the situation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
