Women’s March national co-chair Tamika D. Mallory’s attempt to tamp down anti-Semitism concerns prior to next weekend’s march may have backfired.

Ms. Mallory refused to condemn Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan in an appearance Monday on ABC’s “The View” under tough questioning from co-host Meghan McCain, who asked about Mr. Farrakhan’s past comments on “wicked Jews, “false Jews,” and homosexuality. “We did not make those remarks,” said Ms. Mallory. “What I will say to you is that I don’t agree with many of Minister Farrakhan’s statements.”

Asked about his remarks about Jewish people, Ms. Mallory repeated, “As I said, I don’t agree with many of Minister Farrakhan’s statements.”

The Women’s March has seen its sponsors fall off in advance of the third annual march on Washington, D.C., slated for Saturday on the National Mall, as Ms. Mallory and co-chairs Carmen Perez and Linda Sarsour wrestle with criticism over their Farrakhan associations.

Sorry Ms. Mallory but you can’t use guilt by association Alinskyite tactics against president Trump and then not have it apply to you. Doesn’t work that way.

Sansour is a diversity placement. Her anti-Semitism has been constant and public for years. They only tolerated her because she was a white liberal in hijab.

Bunch of hypocrites. Farrakhan sat on the same stage as Bill Clinton at the Aretha Franklin funeral and no one said a word.

Their tweets say it all. Carmen Perez is "msladyjustice1"

I was looking forward to someone such as Madonna saying she wants to blow up the White House. Or some Hollywood idiot actresses share agony over menstruating into their favorite pants. Maybe we will meet us out on all that.

Meet out should be. Miss out.

Mid 40s and lots of rain. Oh, how I love a parade, especially when God shows His humorous side.

Aside: wonder why they don’t have their parade in June? Oh, that might make sense.
