House Democrats erupted into a full-scale brawl Wednesday, challenging leaders over indirectly sanctioning freshman Rep. Ilhan Omar for alleged anti-Semitic remarks amid an outcry over party inaction to President Trump’s divisive comments on race.

In a closed-door session, Democrats protested plans to vote this week on a resolution condemning religious hatred, a measure prompted by Omar’s comments last week suggesting supporters of Israel have “allegiance to a foreign country.”

The remarks have exploded into a larger debate over how Congress should respond to individual racial and religious grievances. It also touched off Democratic concerns that the splintering was overshadowing the newfound majority’s agenda, with Republicans seeking to capi­tal­ize politically on the divide.

Jews are finding out where they are on the grievance group peaking order. The only group lower on the list are straight, white, and christian men.

This is a microcosm of the strength of Islam in America.

This whole “Im outraged that a Muslim would say anything anti Israel” from the commie left is laughable. The Democrat Party is anti Jew and Anti Israel, we have all known that for the longest time I dont know why many are so shocked..and why many would be shocked that a Muslim would be anti Israel, of course she is, its in her DNA..go ask a member of Hamas in gaza to “pretty please like Jews” its the same thing with Omar, Omar and Hamas are one in the same

Mad Mo says, kill all the Jews. Anything less would be a hateful insult to Muslims.

Since Liberal Democrats constitute the largest HATE group in America there should be no surprise that they HATE Jews.

Also, can the Dem’s, in an honest fashion, articulate ‘divisive, racists comments’ made by the President?

The DNC should hold their next convention in either Auschwitz or Dachau, ya think?

When you combine their full support for the murder of infants at birth and their antisemitism, they should feel right at home in a WWII camp, IMO.

You’ve got to be kidding me? Jews are at the very top of the grievance list. All it takes is talk of “six million” and we are rampaging across the middle east for them.

The Boomers’ obsession with Jews and Israel is mind numbing to me.

“The remarks have exploded into a larger debate over how Congress should respond to individual racial and religious grievances. It also touched off Democratic concerns that the splintering was overshadowing the newfound majority’s agenda”

really, this, and much more to come, are the inevitable result of the plethora of Democrat-inspired identity and grievance groups who hate each other ... it’s now impossible for the Dems to defend any one group without seriously offending the other groups ...

“indirectly sanctioning freshman Rep. Ilhan Omar for alleged anti-Semitic remarks amid an outcry over party inaction to President Trump’s divisive comments on race.”

The idiot Democrats are more than willing to accuse Pres. Trump of being a racist but give the Muslims, who call for “Death to America”, a free pass to say what they want because of free speech.

That’s actually not a bad idea - and order some Zyklon B for enhancing the ambience during dinner.

There is nothing “alleged” about the womans remarks ... she is a faithful Muslim who hates Jews ... wait for it ... she will show her anti-Christian bias soon as well.
