Mohamed Hadid<\/strong><\/a>‘s apologizing for racist and homophobic direct messages he sent to Congressman Ritchie Torres<\/strong> … while still criticizing Torres for supporting Israel.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

The real estate developer — and father to Gigi<\/strong><\/a> <\/strong>and Bella Hadid<\/strong><\/a> — posted to Instagram to address DMs he sent to the congressman … revealed by the New York Post<\/strong><\/a> <\/strong>Saturday.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

\n

Among the unsavory insults … Mohamed said Ritchie was dumber than New York sewer rats, said he should dress in a KKK hood to cover his face and he might be qualified to be a bouncer at a gay bar.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n


\n<\/p>\n

\n

Torres became the first openly gay, African-American man elected to Congress … so, Mohamed’s comments are very pointed at his identity.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

\n

Mohamed starts off by saying he’s not apologizing for his anger but for the words he used to express himself … though he quickly goes on the attack against Torres saying he’s a shill for the Israeli government.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

Mohamed says he’s upset he became a refugee from the country so many years ago, and he’s angry at the genocide unfolding … making a note to apologize to the Palestinian community for shifting the conversation away from the violence in the region.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

\n

Basically, Mohamed’s apologizing, but not really to Torres. Instead, he’s still slamming Ritchie’s political beliefs … and, acknowledges he should’ve used different words to do so earlier.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

Mohamed’s daughters have been outspoken about their support for Palestine with Gigi and Bella both posing in the aftermath<\/strong><\/a> of the October 7 attack … and, the family received death threats for their support of Palestine.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n
