House Democrats are reportedly considering retaliatory moves against two top American and Israeli diplomats in response to Israel’s decision to block Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar and Michigan Rep. Rashida Tlaib from entering the country.
Senior Democratic members of Congress are considering legislative action against Ron Dermer, Israel’s ambassador to Washington, and David Friedman, the U.S. ambassador to Israel, according to McClatchy.
According to the report, the Democrats are discussing a possible vote on a statement of no confidence in Dermer, as well as the opening up of an inspector general investigation into Friedman.
Meanwhile, Tlaib’s 90-year-old grandmother, Muftia Tlaib, who lives in the West Bank, used fiery language as she ripped President Trump for his comments about the banned trip: “Trump tells me I should be happy Rashida is not coming,” she said, according to Reuters. “May God ruin him.”
Earlier in the week, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu cited Omar and Tlaib’s anti-Israel statements in saying it would block her and another Democratic congresswoman from entering Israel as part of a planned trip.
The move – announced shortly after Trump tweeted that it would "show great weakness" to allow them in – has ignited a massive outcry from Washington Democrats, as Netanyahu's government stands by the decision arguing the U.S. lawmakers have an ulterior, anti-Israel agenda.

Why on earth would they do that?
Aside from the satisfaction of pure spite, where is the political advantage?
well- the grown ups on the right need to stand their ground as the left throw their little childish fits- These children on the left are spoiled rotten brats and it’s high time they got spanked
The communists are hell-bent on civil war.
The Dems should let it go. It’s a lose, lose. They can accomplish nothing.
Would be funny if Trump said something along the lines of “Well, as you can see- childish people don’t like to be reprimanded for their vile behavior- What you are witnessing is a temper tantrum- wait it out folks- eventually they will grow up- Not”
So what language did Grandma speak in?
Islamic fascist Nazi Democrats being Islamic fascist Nazi Democrats even liberal loon Bill Maher, thinks that they have gone unhinged and are completely in the wrong here.
The communist and Nazi-islamonazi infestation of the DNC ( and thus congress) must be cleaned out ASAP! These traitors will eventually destroy this country - they’re undercutting our defenses, diplomacy, economy , moral and political values, the church and every other strength we’ve ever had as a free society.
Jew-hate is a kind of madness that ends up being harmful or even suicidal to the hater, and it’s somewhat contagious.
More BS spouted with the assistance of Fox News, now flying its true colors. The House of Representatives can scream all it wants, but it has no authority of power over foreign policy. The White House and Senate govern foreign affairs.
The concerned collectivists are considering...
blah, blah, blah.
Virtue signaling isn’t working. Violence signaling next. Amplify.
TLAIB AND OMAR SHOULD BE BANNED FROM WALMART!
The left has been engaged in a civil war. It’s the right who has been abstaining and mostly losing.
Looks like she should have gone a couple months ago with the 70 some congressional entourage.
Given the huge percentage of funding the Dems get from Jewish donors, I hope they go forward with this.
If the Democrats alienate their Jewish large contributors they will go the way of the Whigs.
It looks like the party needs to be put on a suicide watch. ;-)
Great! Choose sides!
Zogby Poll last week:
51% approval rating
49% Hispanic Approval
28% African-American approval
Now the Dems are willing to start throwing away Jewish support!
Beautiful it can only help the gop, even if it’s minuscule
