House Democrats plan vote in response to anti-Israel comments made by Rep. Ilhan Omar

House Democratic leaders on Wednesday will call up a vote on a resolution condemning anti-Semitism — a move meant to respond to anti-Israel comments made by Minnesota Democrat Rep. Ilhan Omar. Staff from the offices of Speaker Nancy Pelosi, House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer, Foreign Affairs Chairman Eliot Engel, Judiciary Chairman Jerrold Nadler and Ethics Chairman Ted Deutch worked on the resolution over the weekend but the text has yet to be finalized, according to a senior Democratic aide.

Omar is under fire for at least the second time this year after making remarks last Wednesday during an event with Michigan Democratic Rep. Rashida Tlaib at Busboys and Poets in Washington.

How is it that the Dems can censure someone for saying something that they all agree with?

It would be a fake apology. The woman is who she is. Live with it.

1) great idea

2) where is the meme of the black kid arrogantly saying “That’s racist.” We’ll need it.

It’s for show. If Democrats had it their way, every Jew in Israel would be dead, with a Palestinian standing over their body.

Nancy already made this Omar woman apologize once last month for her bigoted remarks.

So if she does it again, that would be - well rude. Pelosi would be accused of picking on a muslim woman.

Can’t have that, now can we?

Whatever works they do.

Remember the old Saturday Night Live line:
“It’s better to look good than to feel good.”

They will look noble, aristocratic and humanistic.

Muslims hate Jews and America. If they say that’s not true, it’s Taqiya.

Including the Jewish senators and house members!! :)

it’s just the truth. You are voting to one day have Jewish folks round up and at best, put into camps.

It’s the INEVITABLE outcome if the left has its way.

It’s religious and cultural suicide.

They're not censuring her. They're going to issue some general expression against anti-Semitism. Omar will even vote for it. Taqqiya, you know. Meanwhile, every time she says things like this, her re-election goes up and up in that Somali craphole she represents.

Agreed. Leftists insist that criticizing Israel is not anti-Semitic. So, now it is?

Enemy islamists run the place. It’s a wonder that we’d get so much as a nod from any one of them.

The woman is who she is. Live with it. -

indeed. Say what you will about her but 1.)she is accurately repping her district which no one should have a problem with and -

2.) She realizes that no one in either party has the balls to stop her and

3.) She’s done apologizing.

Billy Crystal used to say that while in character on SNL.
NOT Billy Kristol, the #NeverTrumper.
