212 House Democrats ➖ 43 House Democrats condemning Jayapal’s Antisemitic comments 🟰 169 Antisemitic House Democrats.
NRCC National Press Secretary Will Reinert said: “The House Democratic Caucus is full of rabid Antisemites — led by their prejudiced leader Hakeem Jeffries. The longer Democrats let their hatred of Israel linger in their party, the more outspoken and vile the 169 current bigots will be in their caucus.”
Background:
- Ilhan Omar flexed her anti-Semitic bonafides last week, saying there is “no way in hell” she’ll attend the President of Israel’s speech to Congress next week. Then, seeing no consequences from Democratic leadership, Reps. Jamaal Bowman, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez & Rashida Tlaib followed suit.
- House Democratic leadership called it “unfortunate” that Speaker McCarthy canceled Rashida Tlaib’s anti-Semitic Congressional event.
- The entire caucus defended Ilhan Omar’s anti-Semitism when she faced removal from the Foreign Affairs Committee.
- Democratic members rallied around Jeffries after his comments resurfaced defending rabid anti-Semites.
