Rep. Ted Lieu, D-Calif, demanded the resignation of U.S. Ambassador to Israel David Friedman and suggested that his "allegiance" is with the Jewish state after Friedman supported the decision made by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's government to bar Reps. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., and Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., from entering the country.
Appearing on CNN, Lieu slammed the Trump administration for "working against" Tlaib and Omar, calling its conduct "outrageous."
"Ambassador Friedman, the U.S. ambassador to Israel, actually I think he should resign," Lieu told "The Situation Room" anchor Wolf Blitzer. "He doesn't seem to understand that his allegiance is to America, not to a foreign power. He should be defending the rights of Americans to travel to other countries and to visit their relatives."
When asked to elaborate what he meant about Friedman's "allegiance to a foreign power," Lieu called Friedman's statement "outrageous" and despite Blitzer's rejoinder that the ambassador was following President Trump's position, Lieu still demanded his resignation.
"His allegiance, again, is to America, not to a foreign power," Lieu reiterated.
Lieu made a similar attack against the ambassador on Twitter. He later deleted the tweet and issued an apology.

Well, Teddy, Tlaib and Omar have allegiance only to Islam.
If Lieu had any loyalty or concern for the well being of the USA , he’d immediately sponsor a motion to eject these Satanic islamicist witches from the Congress.
..................
Typical lowlife dem. He pulled his libel of Friedman, a Jew. I'm not a twitter person, but as I understand it he's making the same accusation of disloyalty of Christian supporters of Israel. Honestly, an Air Force JAG 06, he should know better. Guess his inner democrat politician is coming out.
“He doesn’t seem to understand that his allegiance is to America, not to a foreign power.”
Where does your allegiance lie you filthy democrat puke? Those two r4ptiles shouldn’t be allowed in the US much less congress. FU.
Have these fricking IDIOTS forgotten 9/11 what the hell is wrong with these legislators standing up for these two muzzies over Isreal !!! I still can’t believe that in such a short time we have gone from 9/11 to these two women being in our congress WTH!!!
The lib insanity runs strong in this one.
Imagine if 9/11 had happened under Gore. We’d already have sharia supporters on the SCOTUS.
I suspect that Ted is tightly allied to his boyfriend.
Another anti semite heard from.
How dence is Ted Lieu?
Israel doesn’t have nukes pointed at the US. Whereas Lieu’s primary loyalty is to China, which does.
I suspect Ted is an undercover Republican. His job is to make the Democrats look like idiots.
What do you expect from Ted Lieu, whose best buddy Ed Buck murdered two young black men in his apartment by giving them a lethal amount of drugs
The gentleman from China’s time has expired.
And a large portion of the jewish population will continue to support the Dems.
Rather dense.
F#CK OFF TED, if we want to hear your opinion, we will beat it out of you.
Obama and Deep State Marxist US intelligence agencies, democrats, republicans and state media. Piece of cake
I think Rep. Lieu’s allegiance is to Hanoi.
