President Trump has invited a controversial cartoonist who has been accused of anti-Semitism to the White House.

Ben Garrison, a political cartoonist affiliated with the far-right, posted the invitation on his Twitter account on Friday.

‘The President requests the pleasure of your company for The Social Media Summit to be held at The White House on Thursday, July 11, 2019, at three o’clock,’ the invitation reads.

Garrison tweeted: ‘Honored to be invited to the White House! Thank you Mr. President!’

The ‘social media summit’ planned by Trump in the East Room of the White House is expected to be a gathering of conservatives who believe they are being censored by tech companies.

Jake Tapper, the CNN anchor, tweeted news about Garrison’s invitation on Saturday.

In August 2017, the Anti-Defamation League slammed Garrison for what is said was a 'blatantly' anti-Semitic cartoon.

It shows H.R. McMaster, who at the time was Trump’s national security adviser, and retired four-star Army general David Petraeus performing in a puppet show.

Their puppet strings are being pulled from above by George Soros, the Hungarian Jewish financier who has contributed money to numerous liberal causes and is considered an enemy by conservatives.

In the cartoon, Soros is also a puppet whose strings are pulled from above by someone with reptilian hands.

The name on the sleeve reads ‘Rothschilds.’

The cartoon also showed a puppeteer from the Rothschild family, the European Jewish banking dynasty. The image above is a stock photo of the Rothschild & Cie logo in company headquarters in Paris

The Rothschilds are the famous European Jewish banking dynasty whose name has been historically invoked by anti-Semites and conspiracy theorists who blame them for the world’s ills.

At the time the cartoon was drawn, McMaster was assailed by Trump supporters as a ‘globalist’ who stood in the way of the president’s ‘America First’ agenda.

McMaster eventually left the White House. He was replaced by the current national security adviser, John Bolton.

The reference in the cartoon to Petraeus is unclear since Petraeus, a former head of the CIA, was never appointed to any official role in the Trump administration.

Before Trump came into office, he interviewed Petraeus for the secretary of state position, which was eventually filled by Rex Tillerson.

The ADL said that the cartoon by Garrison was allegedly commissioned by Mike Cernovich, the alt-right blogger and radio host who is best known for promoting the Pizzagate conspiracy theory.

‘Pizzagate’ alleged that senior members of the Democratic Party were running a child sex ring from the basement of a Washington, DC pizzeria.

Earlier this year, Trump himself was crudely depicted in a political cartoon which appeared in the international edition of The New York Times that was widely denounced as anti-Semitic

Cernovich is also a regular guest on Infowars, the web site run by far-right conspiracy theorist Alex Jones.

After many on social media noted that the cartoon was anti-Semitic, Cernovich replaced it with a cropped version that removed the ‘Rothschilds’ puppeteer.

The ADL said that the original cartoon went viral on Reddit discussion sites and other social media platforms.

Earlier this year, Trump himself was crudely depicted in a political cartoon which appeared in the international edition of The New York Times that was widely denounced as anti-Semitic.

It showed Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu as a dachshund wearing a Star of David collar and leading a blind and skullcap-wearing President Trump.

The newspaper apologized for the cartoon, which generated an intense backlash.

Last month, the Times announced that it would no longer print political cartoons, though it denied that the decision had anything to do with the controversial cartoon.
