Mike Pence Tears Into Anti-Semite Ilhan Omar, Calls For Her To ‘Face Consequences’
You listening, Ilhan?
Vice President Mike Pence often remains quiet while working on behalf of the nation as the president’s right-hand man.
However, the VP decided to make it known that he’s ticked off with Democrat Rep. Ilhan Omar (MN) and her anti-Semitic tweets.
Pence says Omar must “face the consequences.”

In other words, she needs to resign.
From Mediaite:
Vice President Mike Pence suggested Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) should resign from the House Foreign Affairs Committee and said “those who engage in anti-Semitic tropes” should face consequences.
“[Omar’s] tweets were a disgrace & her apology was inadequate. Anti-Semitism has no place in the United States Congress, much less the Foreign Affairs Committee,” Pence wrote, days after Omar tweeted “it’s all about the Benjamins” while commenting on AIPAC’s political influence. “Those who engage in anti-Semitic tropes should not just be denounced, they should face consequences for their words.”

President Trump, too, says Omar needs to step down.

Senate Minoirty Leader Chuck Schumer, who is Jewish, got in on the fun, as well…
Rep. Omar’s use of an anti-Semitic stereotype was offensive and irresponsible.
This kind of intolerance has no place in Congress—or anywhere in American society.
No one should invoke anti-Semitic tropes during policy disagreements.
— Chuck Schumer (@SenSchumer) February 11, 2019
Omar shows no shame after responding to a series of tweets from journalist Glenn Greenwald.
LOOK:
GOP Leader Kevin McCarthy threatens punishment for @IlhanMN and @RashidaTlaib over their criticisms of Israel. It's stunning how much time US political leaders spend defending a foreign nation even if it means attacking free speech rights of Americans https://t.co/It1fGm1b70
— Glenn Greenwald (@ggreenwald) February 10, 2019
Equating @IlhanMN & @RashidaTlaib's criticism of Israel to Steve King's long defense of white supremacy is obscene (McCarthy said it's worse). In the US, we're allowed to criticize our own government: certainly foreign governments. The GOP House Leader's priorities are warped.
— Glenn Greenwald (@ggreenwald) February 10, 2019
Sorry, but you're not going to turn the two first Muslim women to serve in the US Congress into overnight Jew-haters because of their criticisms of Israel. What's actually anti-Semitic is conflating the Government of Israel with Jews, so those of you doing that should stop.

Enter Omar with the anti-Semitic sterotype:

If not blatantly obvious to the untrained eye, here’s the problem with her tweet:
“It’s all about the Benjamins baby,” Rep. Omar said, a reference to Jewish people and money. A typical antisemitic stereotype.
She then retweeted a “hook-nosed” tweet:

Congresswoman, do you not realize what you’re saying here or do you not care? https://t.co/fh8a1OWhhz https://t.co/jcCvQuWXdC

Defending Israel from antisemites is “all about the Benjamins”? Really? It’s about money?
Another antisemitic trope for @Ilhan Omar? She’s like an antisemitic pinball machine that spits out old canards as the ball bounces around her brain.
She’s the gift that keeps on giving! https://t.co/w5HWhLqyWd

This is really disappointing, Congresswoman.
It makes me incredibly proud to see you in Congress. I believe you are a good person. Attempts to silence you are shocking and un-American.
But I’m starting to lose faith given your uses of anti-Semitic tropes. Please do better.

You are an anti-Semite.

WATCH:
In 2016, nine Minnesota men were charged with plotting to join ISIS.
Omar, who has blasted Israel for a good long while and has been photographed with some questionable personalities (as you’ll see below), asked the judge to show “compassion.”
Compassion for men who want to join ISIS, huh?
Wild.
From Fox 9:
The 9 Minnesota men charged with planning to join ISIS are scheduled to be sentenced next week. Ahead of those court dates, 13 letters were sent to Judge Michael Davis in the case of defendant Abdirahman Yasin Daud, including a letter from state Rep. Ilhan Omar, who on Election Night became with first elected Somali-American lawmaker in the nation.
Rep. Omar asked Judge Davis for “compassion” and a “restorative approach to justice,” concluding that “this ruling can set a precedent and has the potential to be a landmark case in addressing extremism.”
In 2012, Ilhan Omar tweeted about the “evil doings of Israel.”
She may not have imagined she’d one day be elected to Congress, forced to answer for her words.

Dem Lawmaker Shouts ‘F— Donald Trump’ At Pro-Elizabeth Warren Rally In San Diego (Video)
So very childish!
Democrats. Always on their best behavior. Except when in public. Or at rallies. Or on social media. Or on the internet, in general. Strike that. Dems are hardly ever on their best behavior. For example, via Daily Wire: At a pro-Elizabeth Warren event in San Diego, California, a group of protesters showed up to demonstrate against Warren-backer and California Assemblymember Lorena Gonzalez (D-San Diego) for authoring AB5, a disastrous labor law that has essentially declared war on the state’s gig worker economy. During the event, Gonzalez can be seen delivering a speech, but she momentarily seems to lose her train of thought as the group of protesters shift around and the audience breaks into a chatter. Amidst the pause, someone in the audience can be heard shouting “F*** Donald Trump.” CONTINUED: Gonzalez takes the opportunity to blare the phrase back into the microphone: “F*** Donald Trump!” As Gonzalez regains support, protesters break out in chants condemning the labor law, repeatedly shouting “Repeal AB5,” as the lawmaker’s supporters boo them. VIDEO: https://twitter.com/BlueUrpi/status/1231815695723184128?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1231815695723184128&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.dailywire.com%2Fnews%2Fabsolutely-no-doubt-money-analyst-points-to-bernie-as-stocks-tank Socialism has failed so badly in Venezuela that people are forced to fend for meals from garbage trucks. They also look for drinking water from sewers. When the government runs amok and guns are stripped from the citizenry, these are the kinds of results people can expect. When asked if they would trade President Trump for dictator Nicolas Maduro, some people actually said, “yes.” Think about that for a second. How uninformed can a person be? WATCH: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zQO-2fv5mXI#action=share Not only is Warren not likable but she’s simply a bore. Nobody cares what she has to say. Not even her supporters.

CNN Panel Mocks Biden for Now Claiming He Never Said South Carolina Was His ‘Firewall’
Video of the day??
Former Vice President Joe Biden has an extremely selective memory, especially about things he says that happened or didn’t happen very recently. For example, the 2020 Democrat presidential nominee absolutely, 100%, without a doubt said that he viewed South Carolina as a “firewall” for his campaign. Then, in a recent interview, Biden looked a reporter in the eye and claimed that he never said it – that the reporter said it. He lied. He knew he lied. The reporter knew he was lying. And now, even a CNN panel is mocking him for it. WATCH: https://twitter.com/RNCResearch/status/1232059816392175617?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1232059816392175617&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.weaselzippers.us%2F From Fox News: Biden had been heavily favored heading into the Feb. 29 contest in the Palmetto State. He has touted his support among black voters, but recent polling suggests he is losing ground among that demographic just days before the primary. […] Biden is tied for third (with Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass.) in total delegates heading into South Carolina. He trails Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., and former South Bend, Ind. mayor Pete Buttigieg. But Biden expressed confidence while addressing supporters following his second-place finish in Nevada. If there is anyone who “doesn’t get it,” it’s Joe. It’s pretty clear from the constant gaffes and flubs and errors and unintentional racist remarks, that the dude isn’t playing with a full deck. Where Joe found the stones to run for president against Donald Trump is anyone’s guess. Biden could’ve sailed off into the sunset, himself and many members of his family a millionaire multiple times over. But some people just love the spotlight too much. When Joe’s team tweets something like this, it proves that they’re out of touch with reality.
