Omar is correct on the facts. Nothing to take back. If not the Benjamin then political. Israel is the aggressor in the region. Two states!
BarackObama ‘s manifest animus towards Israel was overlooked by the media and Democrats for eight years and now a freshman congresswoman from MN has suddenly broken the Overton Window? Sounds like misogyny. Democrats care to comment?
Shame on NancyPelosi and the House Democratic leadership for falsely accusing Rep. IlhanOmar of AntiSemitism. Stop defending the excessive influence of BigMoney in politics and using slanderous allegations to smear those who courageously stand against it.
They should be calling for her resignation!
Apologize? What a joke. So if Trump apologizes, does that mean Dems will actually compromise with him? Friday is coming and their clock is running out.
Name one of MSNBC journalist that has called Trump out to his face.... I'll be waiting
Deport her immediately.
Get rid of her. She aint no American !
Well, you get what you voted for. She’ll take away her remarks but this is what she believes. Congrats.
Democrats apologize for everything.Jeez. I understood her to be making a point about big money in government policy.Its called corruption🤑
Remember when the president joked about Native American genocide and his son described it as savage and then the media barely called him out on it? But sure let’s focus on Omar... and btw, I still can’t find her supposed racist tweet
Trump2020 SpeakerPelosi
she still believes in what she said. This has been going on for awhile now and the people are sick of her anti semitic remarks. Her apology is not excepted.
The swift and overwhelming response to her remarks kinda proves her point, I think.
I for one am glad SpeakerPelosi spoke up. Not that I disagree with Omar. But what each and every Congress person needs to remember is they are speaking for a collective. And if that collective isn’t all on your page? Consider that a person problem not for public eyes.
SpeakerPelosi SenSchumer ClyburnSC06 LeaderHoyer what was anti-Semitic about her remarks? Just asking for clarification
WE'RE NOT ALL IN BED WITH FUKIN ISRAEL!!!
We need to Condemn Trump for some of his rhetoric that is highly offensive She made a mistake Trump just don't give A SH HOLE So please do your job Condemn Trump NOW
So what no big deal...We need to have a strong debate about her statement. We must talk about racism in America n Middle East. Look at the make up white Americans/white Jews both racist..oppression ppl of color..IJS😎🌍🏆🍷
ShameOnYou HouseDemocrats Israel is a racist apartheid regime that you are funding! FreePalestine IsraelSaudiArabiaUSAcollusion
GOP would still be waiting for Fox News to tell them what to do.
Apologies is not enough she needs to be kicked out of congress
It still doesn’t mean we shouldn’t criticize the fascistic elements of current Israeli politics along with our own. This isn’t anti Semitic, it is not about the Jewish people or their faith, it is about corrupt extremist politicians and policies that violate basic human rights.
We have a Russian asset in the Oval Office but yes, please let’s focus on cutting down every democratic woman !! FuckOffMedia
Hypocrites
The words Semitic or antiSemitic shouldn't exist because it was taken of Sem mythology character of the bible. He never existed. In fact all the tale of the big flood was plagiarized for Jewish of the Sumerian ancient culture. It´s like saying descendents of Zeus or Jupiter.
No . She needs to step down
It appears she learned a lesson and apologised. Many of us should do the same.
Whether a Christian, a Jew, or Moslem, there is no place for this kind of Racism in a representative Democracy. Representative Ilhan has apologized and for now that should suffice. Should there be just one more statement such as this she should be expelled from the House.
fake apology
Shared values of racism, apartheid, and the murder of innocent civilians? Wait, maybe she’s right, look at what the United States empire has done in central and South America over the last century; all of the above.
Today's lesson: If you criticize aipac or Israel you’re automatically anti-Semitic—especially if you wear a hijab.
IStandwithOmar
how about throwing her azz out of the HOUSE
The Democratic Party can FUCK OFF .IlhanMN only criticised the Likud Party Lobbyists. (AIPAC) The Likud Party is an Ultra Right-wing Party .. it's NOT ISRAEL! To call IlhanMN an anti-Semite is OFFENSIVE!!
Democrats and their media enablers are really stupid. She has been showing her true colors even before winning her seat and they did nothing. They will lose the election. Well deserved loss.
When you’re truly an anti-Semite apologies ring hollow.
Be really cool if the Congress would call on Israel to stop shooting protesters
Her statement was not anti-semetic! You can be against Isreal without being anti-semetic. They are not the real Jews anyway! That is stolen land and real Jews are Brown/Black people.
In what way was her tweet hurtful? She isn't wrong the Israeli lobbyist is all about money that's how lobbying work
Be careful Nancy many of your supporters are anti Israel. Decades of reeducated people were indoctrinated into the anti Semitic view in the liberal education system.
Russian interfered through the NRA. AIPAC had bibi speak on the floor of the Senate without the president approval how is this not foreign money meddling in our elections.
Yeah right, when has a democrat ever apologized for the evil they do?
She said it's all about 'Benjamins' (Money) Oh that hurts our feelings so so much? Are you freaking kidding me? 🤣
I’m a little confused by this... it sounded like she was talking about foreign lobbying towards a political party. We criticize Russian money going through the NRA, but that is not racist against Russians. I’m open to changing my mind, but I’m not seeing it
Because says it's so don't make it so
Rekt
That organisation is racist all day everyday stay strong sis u spoke the truth
Man I'm done with clyburn n Jefferies when will these clowns stand by our women
She was just making a comment about lobby money... Democrats shooting themselves in the foot again by apologizing instead of sticking up for our own.
As an American, I support the innocent Palestinians that get blamed for everything that happens in Israel, by saying this, it doesn’t make me anti Semitic for not siding with Israel, it’s my right to decide
I've only seen the two tweets, about congressional support for Isreal being based upon lobbyists' funds. Can someone please explain to me how that is anti-semitic? Did I miss some tweets or is the claim that those tweets are anti-semitic? If so, please explain why?
And yet the left wing hack media did not call her out or condemn her for this
There is no leadership here just fear of the machine as usual
And who didn't see this coming?
SJW progressives eating their own.
Showing weakness as Democrats bow to Israeli lobbyist big money. Swampy
But wait.... those Russians who interfered in 2016 elections...
Show boating.
Apologists of Israel are war criminals. AIPAC members are supporters of Israeli terrorism
Why aren't they removing her from the Foreign Relations Committee? Because they are condoning her Anti-Semitic views. More Democrat politicians showing their true colors: Racists, Anti-Semitics, Baby Killers, and Rapists.
Democrats are some sick people. I would never vote for a Democrat. Pelosi is the worst she needs to go as well she nothing but a drunk.
censorship
If speaking out against AIPAC is wrong, then let’s tax the churches in America
The American voter demands she leaves the country.
That's bull shite from the leadership. Always doing the smears for the reps. AIPIC is all about the money & buying influence. Omar is right.
How is it ok for a person to say whatever the hell they want and by apologizing make it all ok? Have all people lost the ability to utilize the ‘self monitoring’ part of their brain and keep their mouths shut? Seems like this phenomenon started about 2+ years ago.
PatrioMedia Why not remove omar from office. Going to lose the house at this rate anyways. Give it time.
Uh huh....and when she does nothing, the 'leadership' will yank up their panties and run away
Apologists of Israel are war criminals. AIPAC members are supporters of Israeli terrorism
What did she say that was anti-semitic? Nothing.
THE LAST SENTENCE ON THE DOCUMENT WAS PURE UNADULTERATED BULLSHIT AND I HAVE PROOF IN MY PERSONAL POSSESSION. .
Apology is a waste of words and breath--that is it--seriously!! She needs to be pulled from the committee. Pelosi comments are $ short and many days to late--jerk
I guess we wait and see. Hard to feel the apology though
Apologize? The Socialist Commies love her
SHE DON'T CARE...
All this does is prove IlhanMN right. AIPAC owns Congress and Democrats are just as boholdened to their money as republicans. The only time Congress is bi-partisan is when they are doing the bidding of their donors.
She needs to be removed from the Foreign Affairs Committee.
She need to not give GOP anything to start something they already do not want her here or in Congress
resign now...
Where is the demand that she resign now?
BBoyle310 agrees with Omar.
This is the most ridiculously ‘controversy’. You got bored of resistance clapback already?
so nice to see everyone making 45 apologize for all the hurtful horrible name calling stuff he's said via Twitter, eh? for sure let's rake the newbie over the coals and let the old goat keep on bleeting. Why not?
Speaker Pelosi says she spoke with Rep. Omar on Monday: 'Congresswoman Omar and I agreed that we must use this moment to move forward as we reject anti-Semitism in all forms.'
