Mike Pence Calls for Ilhan Omar to Be Removed from House Foreign Affairs Committee

Plus this bonus feature:  Muslim Ilhan Omar and Stalinist Angela Davis Form Mutual Adoration Society
. . . "We collectively must make sure that we are dismantling all systems of oppression…we’re the party of love, the party of compassion.” (Ilhan Omar expressing her lifelong adoration for Angela Davis, lifelong devotee of a system that conquered, enslaved, tortured and murdered many more human beings than Hitler’s Nazis.)"

"Today, in an interview with Fox News, Vice President Pence called on the Democratic House leadership to remove Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) from the powerful House Foreign Affairs Committee.

“ 'Ilhan Omar has made statements, anti-Semitic comments against our most cherished ally, Israel, that ought to be rejected by every American," Pence said in the interview. "And frankly the fact that very recently, she’s been trying to blame the United States of America for the deprivation and the poverty brought on by the dictatorship in Venezuela tells me … Congresswoman Ilhan Omar has no place on the House Foreign Affairs Committee and the Democratic leadership ought to remove her."

"This is not the first time Pence has called out Omar for her despicable views. “Anti-Semitism has no place in the United States Congress, much less the Foreign Affairs Committee,” Pence said of freshman congresswoman back in February. Democratic leaders have yet to hold her accountable for her anti-Semitism, and it’s unlikely they will now. Omar did offer a rather insincere apology for her statements, but hopes that the controversy surrounding her would fade away were lost when she managed to put her anti-Semitic foot in her mouth again, Rather than hold Omar accountable, Nancy Pelosi actually defended Omar’s anti-Semitism, claiming Omar "has a different experience in the use of words."

"The Democratic Party has a growing problem of tolerating anti-Semitism amongst its ranks, and failure to address it has allowed it to become mainstream in their party." . . .

. . . "Even if the Democrats did remove Omar, it would be over a public relations concern, not a genuine desire to oust the anti-Semites from their party."

Don't try posting the above in Denmark: Crackdown on Islam-Critics in Denmark

. . . "Shakespeare was right. There IS something rotten in the state of Denmark.
"I took a quick look at Steen’s Steen’s blog. He has posted — using a borrowed computer — about what happened. He’s not the only one who was rounded up this morning; evidently this was a big day for cracking down on “Islamophobes” in Denmark." . . .
"In Denmark! I thought Denmark was different, but evidently not." . . .
