Who is Pamela Geller? Mother of Instagram's 'Girl With No Job,' Oshry Sisters Revealed
What some people might not know is that Pamela Geller is the mother of three incredibly famous Instagram influencers, including @GirlWithNoJob's Claudia Oshry. Fewer people might not know that Geller is a proud and prominent activist of a hate-group, the anti-Islam Stop the Islamization of America (STIOA).
Oshry and her sisters—Jackie, Olivia and Margo—were tied to Geller for the first time in a Daily Beast report, published on Wednesday. While the sisters often share photos of one another on their Instagram accounts, their mother has flown under the radar.
The sisters became successful following the launch of Claudia Oshry's @GirlWithNoJob Instagram account in 2014. She has nearly three million followers, while sister Jackie Oshry's @JackieOProblems and Margo Oshry's @hungoverandhungry_ Instagram accounts have 100,000 followers each. Meanwhile, Olivia Oshry executive produces Claudia and Jackie Oshry's YouTube talk show, The Morning Breath.
Fans took to social media to share their shock and outrage upon learning of the sisters' relation to Geller, who is a far-right advocate and publisher of The Geller Report.

Others on social media noted the sisters may have kept their relation to Geller under wraps for personal safety since their mother faced death threats in the past, including a 2015 attempt on her life orchestrated by an ISIS soldier.
In a statement on Wednesday, the Oshry sisters denied being "anti-Muslim."
"We want to be clear to our audience and fans that our political and cultural beliefs are not anti-Muslim or anti-anyone," they said. "Our views are separate from our mother's. Being raised by a single parent, we were taught to make our own choices based on our personal beliefs. We are inspired to think for ourselves and we do. We do not condone discrimination or racist beliefs of any kind."
Geller has also authored several books spreading conservative and anti-Muslim views, including Fatwa: Hunted in America, The Post-American Presidency: The Obama Administration's War on America and Stop the Islamization of America: A Practical Guide to the Resistance. Geller's STIOA organization has been classified as a hate-group by the Southern Poverty Law Center.
