Rep. Steve Scalise (R-LA), the minority whip and second highest-ranking Republican in the House.
"Israel has the right to decide who can come into their country just like we do," said Sen. Martha McSally (R-AZ) in an interview with Fox News.
"Israel is a sovereign nation and they have no obligation to let in anti-Semitic Congressional members into their country," said Sen. Rick Scott (R-FL).
Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) also defended Israel's decision by also accusing the two congresswomen of "vile anti-Semitism." She provided no evidence for her claim.
"I stand fully with Prime Minister Netanyahu and Israel regarding their right to deny admittance of anyone who advocates against the interests of Israel," said Rep. Chip Roy (R-TX).
"I support Israel’s decision 100%," wrote Rep. Jim Banks (R-IN).
"Hard to believe the righteous indignation when you support the economic destruction of a country, then get mad when they don’t let you in," said Rep. Dan Crenshaw (R-TX).
"If you boycott Israel, you probably shouldn’t be surprised if Israel boycotts you," Jim Hagedorn (R-MN) posted.
"Like many nations, Israel bars enemies from entering Israel. How can anyone disagree with that?" asked Rep. Mo Brooks (R-AL).
"It shouldn't be shocking they are unwelcome in a nation they are taking great pains to tear down," Rep. Lee Zeldin (R-NY) said in a statement.
True Blue Media isn't getting many comments. No need for them to feel lonely in their snow globe world.
Incidentally, contrary to Mr. Willis' assertion, Representatives are not elected to represent the United States. They are elected to represent their district at the legislative branch of the federal government of the United States.
Oliver Willis is still around? I thought he died of Terminal Flatulence.
Just 10? Pretty dang sad! Or 10 who admit it.
Many Democrats in Congress are the Enemy Within whereas Israel is our faithful friend.
A foreign government has every right to keep people out for any reason. This particular case didn't even involve normal diplomatic considerations because the two mutants weren't traveling to Israel on any government business. The Israeli government specified this when it explained why it denied entry to them.
If a member of Congress travels to a foreign country and kills four people in a horrific drunk-driving crash, does the author expect everyone in Congress to publicly support them against any prosecution in the foreign country -- just because they're members of Congress?
There are lefty politicians who try to ban Trump from places like El Paso. Is this not true? Now Trump is the POTUS. To some degree he has jurisdiction over El Paso. The screech sisters have no such jurisdiction over Israel. So I would file this under lefty hypocrisy.
USA has very similar laws preventing the entry of enemies or seditionists or terrorists, you name it.
As do almost all civilized countries on earth.
President Trump is no fool, I agree with his statement on this matter that Jerusalem was correct to bar the entry of these evil evil women.
I also respect PDJT’s integrity in speaking up about it. Thank you, President Trump!
Yeah, well look at those fellow members of Congress.
You can add one US citizen to that list.
But instead of standing with their fellow members of Congress who are elected to represent the United States, several Republicans made their preference for the foreign government’s position clear.
Israel has the right to decide who can come into their country just like we do,” said Sen. Martha McSally (R-AZ) in an interview with Fox News.
Wasn’t McSally one of the RINOs that was publicly against the President when he started cracking down on the border?
As for her statement, I haven’t read anything about her standing up in the Senate, or elsewhere, talking about how the US makes those decisions or should be able to make those decisions. Haven’t read anything about her condemning Wyden when he aided an illegal alien to illegally enter the US to get medical care at taxpayer expense.
So, while she can get a few claps for supporting Israel, she’s no less a fraud than the rest of them.
Thanks to 10. 10?? Where are the rest of the 535 spineless SOBs? We the people are paying these punks. DISGUSTING.
Thank you to my Senator Martha McSally.
You mean, as opposed to Ilham Omar (D-Somalia) and Rashida Tlaib (D-Palestine).
I would never “side with” those leftist disgraces in our Congress.
I’m sure that True Blue searched and was unable to find examples of Democrats siding with other countries over the US.
But the funny thing, trying finding a case where Democrats actually sided with the US over over other countries, and you’ll have to go back decades.
That is who they are now, and what they have become.
They are siding with a Jewish state against antisemitic congresswomen.
When parliamentarians and other political riff-raff in Britain were taking up their cause of disenviting the President I didn’t hear the press and Demnuts condemning their actions. Chalk this up to the usual bs hypocrisy from the left.
They respect a country to deny entry by those who intend to do harm to it. Whatchoo talkin’ about, Willis?
Israel could have done us a favor by arresting the two Moslem harpies.
They deserve death at the end of a rope.
