Speaker Pelosi bowed to her radical wing on Wednesday.
Instead of passing a resolution to condemn Democrat anti-Semite Ilhan Omar, the Democrat leader will rewrite the resolution to omit Omar’s name. Now the resolution will include bigotry and prejudice of all kinds.
Apparently, their need to be inclusive and politically correct trumped the need for the truth.
What a disgrace.
GOP Jewish Rep. Lee Zeldin weighed in on the Democrat Anti-Semitism.
“The hatred that increasingly pours out of the House chamber emboldens anti-Semites & legitimizes rhetoric & stereotypes that have rightfully been shunned in our society.” @SpeakerPelosi must #PassHRes72 & take @IlhanMN off @HouseForeign. Read my op-ed: https://t.co/06xm2uxAfN

Republican Zeldin called out Zeldin for not being tough enough on Rep. Ilhan Omar’s anti-Semitic comments.

Fox News reported:
“A House vote on a resolution condemning anti-Semitism, following recent comments by U.S. Rep Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., has been delayed, as Democrats scramble to rewrite the motion to include all forms of prejudice and progressives like Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez come to the defense of their embattled colleague.
The declaration – which doesn’t mention Omar by name – was initially set to be introduced Wednesday. It was to set out the history of anti-Semitism and other bigotry in America and provide examples of anti-Jewish tropes about divided loyalties.
It was also supposed to say the House “rejects anti-Semitism as hateful expressions of intolerance that are contradictory to the values that define the people of the United States.”
