Dual Citizenship Politicians

[Desperado]

Why is this even allowed? Seems that we cannot trust that their first
allegiance would be!

This is a real problem.

Particularly when the nations where these so-called representatives have citizenship actively work with our elected officials to attack our own civil liberties as well as interfere with our own process of governance.

Ahem...Israel.

Yet all we ever hear from malfeasant media and two-timing politicians is Russia, Russia, Russia.

On Wednesday, Netanyahu's office quoted the PM as saying that “in recent years, we have promoted laws in most US states, which determine that strong action is to be taken against whoever tries to boycott Israel.”

This came shortly after the UN Human Rights Council released a database of more than 100 companies “involved in certain activities relating to settlements in the Occupied Palestinian Territory,” infuriating Israeli officials.

''It was also not for nothing that the American administration has taken this step together with us. In recent years, we have promoted laws in most US states, which determine that strong action is to be taken against whoever tries to boycott Israel.''

Seems that is from an anti semitic website.

Here is a list of foreign born Congressional members. It does not state if they hokd dual citizenship, though
In 116th Congress, at least 13% of lawmakers are immigrants or the children of immigrants

You mean why do we allow Jewish Americans to hold office?

I can see why that would be an issue for Trump voters.

Funny isn't it how the writer left out the Republican Jewish congressmen?

Just another example of anti-semitism at its best.

On a practical level- this list is far from complete- it is purely the anti-semitic list. There are likely dozens of other congressmen who hold dual citizenship without even knowing it- because lots of countries citizenship rules would make them citizens even if their grandfather happened to be born there.

Not going to give this list the time to bother to look them up, but we can be pretty certain that none of these people have ever done anything to acquire Israeli citizenship- for instance I bet none of them have served the mandatory military service in Israel- but that doesn't serve the anti-semitic narrative of the OP.

Oh, please. It has nothing to do with Trump voters. It has to do with desperado that posted it only. That list was made a few years ago by an anti semite. They also stated below the list-
And that’s just the democrats! I’m sure the republicans are just as bad if not worse, but it seems harder to find information on. Here’s another list: american3rdposition.com/?p=12767
They call themselves the resistance and prepare for change. Lol
89% of our Senators and Congress hold dual citizenship citizenship with Israel

They look looney tunes.

Personally I think all Congressional members should not be able to hold dual citizenship.

All democrats? Why is that?

Closed. The OP failed to provide evidence this is true and several of people listed aren't even in Congress anymore
