Yep. You heard correctly. Former Pennsylvania Senator and current presidential candidate Rick Santorum was a brother in Tau Epsilon Phi, a historically Jewish fraternity.
Before Santorum graduated in 1980, he joined the Epsilon Phi chapter of TEP at Pennsylvania State. The chapter is now dormant.
Don’t worry, the super-Catholic candidate for the White House didn’t compromise his beliefs. TEP was originally founded at Columbia University by 10 Jewish men. But in the 1950s, the Tau Boys, along with many other fraternitites, opened their doors to non-Jewish brothers. TEP welcomed Catholics in particular, like Santorum.
It’s the closest thing we’ve had to having a non-goyim in the White House since Lieberman in 2000.
But not really.
Not even close.
