Vincente Gonzalez stands with Omar, anti-Semitism, and anti-Americanism
February 3, 2023
Vincente Gonzalez just made it clear: he stands with Ilhan Omar and her anti-Semitic and anti-American rhetoric.
Gonzalez voted to keep Omar on the Foreign Affairs Committee because he thinks this is acceptable:
- Describing the 9/11 attacks as “some people did something.”
- Comparing America and Israel to Hamas and the Taliban.
- Suggesting American officials who support Israel are paid to do so because it’s “all about the Benjamins baby.”
Worse, the vote could not even begin until Democrats embarrassingly screamed on the House floor in defense of anti-Semitism and anti-Americanism.
“Ilhan Omar’s rhetoric is extreme and Vincente Gonzalez just rubber stamped it with their seal of approval. Shame on Gonzalez for refusing to stand up to the worst elements of his party.” – NRCC Spokesperson Delanie Bomar
