So, going off of Taylor Green's "logic, " Jewish Congressmen can't be sworn in on Torahs? How is that not being anti-Semitic?

[adrienned]

I missed the part when Omar was agreeing with executing the people she works with.

[jacksparrowismydaddy]

I've been Jewish for over 20 years... "all about the benjamins" has NEVER been an anti-Semitic trope.

[davereynolds]

We desperately need Omar and those like AOC!

[BaronessFahrenheit]

Benjamins = Ben Franklin on the $100 bill? Rap slang? Has nothing to do with the Jewish faith. WTF?

[shadowjudge]

"False Equivalency" Wasn't that one of the courses at Trump University?

[showme]

I think Ilhan was spot on by saying what she said

[vampireheart]

The GOP - America's largest anti-Semitic party, which sees no problem whatsoever with its own politicians making anti-Semitic remarks, accuses politicians of other parties of making anti-Semitic remarks. Yeah. Makes total sense.

[BD-oryh]

Half of GOP Congress people would be ousted if they’re throwing ppl out for anti Semitic language

[DizzybyNature]

George Carlin said it best,
"Think about how stupid the average person is, then realize half of humanity is stupider than that."

[grapeshot]

Criticizing the apartheid state of Israel because of their policies is not anti-semitism.

[davidowens]

Since when is “all about the Benjamin’s” an Anti-Semitic trope? That is literally out of a Puff Daddy and the Family song and there is a movie with the same title. All it means is that it’s all about the money. Still confused how that is controversial?

[Stevethelightingguy]

But no false outrage from the right about MTGs "jewish space lazers"theory?

[kush_ste]

They had no problem with a "patriot" storming the Capitol wearing a "Camp Aushwitz" tee shirt. GTFOH. Like, seriously.

[LittlePixieBot]

To Marjorie Taylor: The Koran had many of the same books found in the Torah and the Holy Bible. We have freedom of religion. If a Buddhist were elected, so could be sworn by a Buddhist text if they wanted.

[GabiN]

'False equivalency' that's the GOP and right wing media strategy. That's why you always hear "b-but Obama" or "b-but BLM" from conservatives.

[SamiKotiranta]

Old, white, privileged men going after one black woman... They're soooo brave and not at all racist...

[Overqualified]

Ironic hearing conservatives complain about "anti-semitic" language

[nathanweber]

I really love Ilhan . She is calm during this storm. I gotta say that I have a crush . Other than being badass she is kinda a babe.

[EagleNebula]

First of all! “All about the Benjamins, ” is a Bad Boy Records song and who ever doesn’t know the song has no business telling her when she needs to apologize. I would have put the song on and laughed in their faces for using such a weak way to try to get leverage.
