Councilmember Hugo Soto-Martínez said the posts from his aide, Josh Androsky, were antisemitic and misogynistic. 'I have accepted his resignation,' he said.
A high-level aide to Los Angeles City Councilmember Hugo Soto-Martínez resigned from his post Friday after facing criticism for making Holocaust jokes about the comedian Amy Schumer on social media. Josh Androsky, senior advisor to Soto-Martínez, took part in an exchange on X, formerly known as Twitter, earlier in the day that featured puns about concentration camps and what appeared to be disparaging remarks about Schumer's weight.
' Androsky did not respond to multiple inquiries from The Times. He initially deleted his posts, then his entire account. Schumer has not publicly commented on the controversy. She described her Jewish heritage in one recent Instagram post, mentioning a relative who had 'numbers from Auschwitz burned into his forearm.' In another, she apologized for making 'hurtful' remarks about Gazans, promising to 'be more careful.
