Weakest Speaker Of The House Ever ? Remains to be seen......

[struth]

Kevin McCarthy made the biggest move of his sad speakership on Thursday: taking revenge on Democratic Rep. Ilhan Omar.

McCarthy tried to dress up his partisan, racist attack on Omar, whom Republicans removed from the House Foreign Affairs Committee on a strictly party-line vote, by pretending it was about antisemitism. (And Kevin McCarthy knows a thing or two about antisemitism.) In reality, McCarthy's move was a blatant act of retaliation for Democrats stripping Qanon conspiracy theorist Marjorie Taylor Green of her committee assignments two years ago after she endorsed the assassination of public officials.

haha so it’s racist to keep a bigot off the foreign affairs committee…and now it’s anti-semitic to not want a few rich folks to buy an election? wow you guys are desperate

YOU are defending Omar? She’s shown her vicious hatred to Israel over and over again! She even tries to get Congress to defund Israel’s Iron Dome so as to leave it defenseless against the HAMAS rocket attacks! She wanted to make it easier for Islamic terrorists to kill innocent Israeli children.

You are completely deranged. You spend significant time defending Israel, and yet you object to an Israel-hater being removed from the Foreign Relations Committee.

You are an example of a Jew so driven by his liberalism, against his own self-interests. You should be applauding the removal of an Israel-hater from the Committee.

Worse. That poster you replied to is a Democrat and a pro-Israel Jew! And he’s upset that the antisemite who despises Israel was kicked off the Committee. SMH.

 

[The Duke]

Kevin McCarthy was voted Speaker Of The House yesterday after 15 attempts. From first to 15th Vote he had to make a lot of concessions to those Republicans who would refuse to vote for him.

All of those concessions are in the House Rules which will be voted on this coming Monday.

The question is, will the Rules be voted in, or will it be voted down? Who may vote them down and why?

If voted down, will there be a need to re-negotiated? How will the process work?

Also, if Kevin McCarthy's role as Speaker is so weakened because he had to give up so much, make so many promises, what will happen in the next two years? What will be done and not done?

How will any of this will affect the running of the country?

I will be following what happens from Monday on and we will see together what will happen with that vote and then what may or may not work, and see what the consequences to each is.

What has Kevin McCarthy given up, and at what price?

The new Speaker has offered guarantees to the rebels. But every concession comes with a cost.

She was kicked off after her comment about Jews. So why are you fine with MTG being kicked off, but not the antisemitic Isrsel-hater? You should be applauding that her Jew-hating ass got kicked to the curb.

Has Omar done anything against Israel or Jews after she was reprimanded by Pelosi ? Not to my knowledge. In other words, she may have learned her lesson.
No, it does not mean that she is less ignorant about Israel or less against Israel, but she has learned that the Congress is not the place to say the kind of things she did.

Now, as to MTG.....Jewish Space lasers, CRT is about ????

Greene, a Republican from Georgia, made the statement during the House Oversight and Accountability Committee's hearing on federal pandemic relief.

Is she allowed to continue to be antisemitic AND racist AND have committees she should not have?

And let us not forget being homophobic:




Antisemitic, racist and homophobic voters put MTG in Congress . Twice.

Instead of learning to not be any of the above, she now feels empowered to continue to be more and more and more, thanks to Mr. Kevin McCarthy, the Speaker of the House .

1) Yes, she lobbied her colleagues to defund the Iron Dome. Isn’t that bad enough?

2) If that’s not bad enough, she cheers on the Boycott movement against Israel (BDS) while simultaneously saying we shouldn’t have sanctions against Iran because it hurts innocent people.

IOW, she speaks up against sanctions when they hurt innocent Muslims, but cheers them on when they hurt innocent Jews.

I am working hard to defeat people like you - Jews who defend antisemites and Israel-haters, particularly when they are in Congress. I would recommend one of my groups to you, but you wouldn’t like them: they work to help Isrsel.

Yes she does. She’s in Congress and advocating to harm Israel. And you are defending her.

You are suffering from major cognitive dissonance. (Being a Jewish Democrat is proof of that.) You defend Israel while at the same time defending a Muslim antisemite who wants to weaken Israel.

You are a prime example of your liberalism trumping your Judaism.

They didn't keep any bigots off the Foreign Affairs Committee.

January 2023 was the least productive month in Congressional History. The House defunded the IRS, passed a bill to make killing a baby illegal (it was already illegal), and made it illegal for the federal government to show a profit on the oil reserves, but they did allow members to carry guns in the House!!!

The "Seinfeld Congress" a good name for this Congress: A TV show about "nothing".

Is she writing, while in Congress, any bills which would harm Israel? Which ones? When?

The last time I say, Free speech is still part of the first Amendment, and anyone can be for or against anything. It does not mean that their ideas will be taken by the US government, or passed as bills in Congress.


Keep attacking me personally. It is laughably weak as you have nothing to stand on, just words. Worthless words.
Try dealing with the topic of the conversation only. It will show maturity, and not some "Jewish superiority" to me simply because you are an observant Jew and I am not.
Or because you assume that I do not support Israel and you do.

The US will not stop funding for the Dome, or anything else Israel needs. And if it ever does again, as with Obama during the boat issue, Israel more than came up on top by starting to manufacture the much needed ammunition it was buying from the US. In other words, the US lost a business deal in the process of not understanding what was going on then.


Am Israel Chai.

She has proposed defunding the Israel Dome, and along with her fellow Israel-haters on the Squad, lobbied her fellow Congresspeople to make Israel vulnerable to HAMAS rocket attacks. That you excuse her by saying “well, she didn’t write a bill to do that” is weak indeed.

I have no sense of Jewish superiority. I simply note that secular Jews will excuse, defend, and circle the wagons around an antisemitic Israel-hater if she is….drum roll….a liberal. For secular Jews, their liberalism trumps their Judaism.

I will work to continue to defeat self-loathing Jews such as yourself.

 

[Lisa558]

It is a wonderful accomplishment. It is chilling how liberals - including Jewish liberals - are upset that an Israel-hating antisemite has been removed from a critical committee, with access to highly classified info involving Israel, has been removed from that position.

[ An article to think about ]


But it’s also clear that a lot of Omar’s critics don’t have much of a leg to stand on. Conservatives have been trying to label Omar an anti-Semite since she was elected in November, on the basis of fairly flimsy evidence. Rep. Kevin McCarthy, the Republican House minority leader, blasted her tweet despite having sent his own tweet accusing prominent Jewish Democrats of trying to “buy” the 2018 election. Trump once told a room full of Jewish Republicans that “you’re not going to support me because I don’t want your money,” adding that “you want to control your politicians, that’s fine.”

The fact that Omar apologized under pressure, and that Trump and McCarthy have never faced real consequences for their use of anti-Semitic tropes, tells you everything you need know about the politics of anti-Semitism in modern America.

This is not to minimize Omar’s offense: Her tweet was ignorant at best, and she was right to apologize. If we’re trying to understand anti-Semitism in American politics, though, we need to be clear-eyed about where all the problems are — and what’s being done to address them.

There are two core truths about this incident. First, Omar’s statement was unacceptable. Second, Republicans going after her — including the president — should spend less time on Democrats and more time dealing with the far worse anti-Semitism problem on the right.

-----
It’s true that in some cases, all criticism of Israel or AIPAC, even if it’s legitimate, is labeled anti-Semitic — and that’s a real problem. Omar’s faith has made her a particular target, and it’s fair to want to defend her against these smears in the abstract.

But the specifics of Omar’s tweet make things quite different. In the original context — where she was quote-tweeting Greenwald— she says that US lawmakers’ support for Israel is “all” about money. Yes, it’s a Puff Daddy reference, but she’s a member of Congress and maybe should be a little more careful about the implications of what she says:

It's all about the Benjamins baby https://t.co/KatcXJnZLV
— Ilhan Omar (@IlhanMN) February 10, 2019

There are two problems here: First, the tweet isn’t true. The US-Israel alliance has deeper and more fundamental roots than just cash, including the legacy of Cold War geopolitics, evangelical theology, and shared strategic interests in counterterrorism. Lobbying certainly plays a role, but to say that “US political leaders” defending Israel is “all” about money is to radically misstate how America’s Israel politics work (and discount the findings of the scholars who study it).

Second, and more important, totalizing statements like this play into the most troubling anti-Semitic stereotypes. The Protocols of the Elders of Zion, an infamous early-20th-century Russian forgery, describes a plot by Jewish moneyed interests to subvert and destroy Christian societies through their finances. This in turn draws on longstanding European anti-Semitic traditions that portray Jews as greedy and conniving.

After World War II and the creation of the state of Israel, the conspiracy theory shifted. Anti-Semites started using “Zionist” or “Zio” as a stand-in for “Jewish,” using Jewish activism in favor of the Jewish state as proof that they were right all along about the Jewish conspiracy. David Duke, the former Louisiana state representative and Ku Klux Klan grand wizard, released a YouTube video in 2014 that bills itself as an “illustrated” update of the Protocols. The video features footage of leading Democratic and Republican politicians speaking to pro-Israel groups, with the caption “both are in the grips of Zio money, Zio media, and Zio bankers.”

“Do you really think, in politics, that he who pays the piper doesn’t call the tune?” Duke asks rhetorically.

Omar is, of course, not coming from the same hateful place as Duke is. But by using too-similar language, she unintentionally provides mainstream cover for these conspiracy theories. After her comments, Duke repeatedly defended her, even tweeting a meme that said “it took a Muslim congresswoman to actually stand up & tell the truth that we ALL know” (he rescinded the praise after her apology).

This is not to equate Duke and Omar — which, to be clear, would be absurd — but rather to point out how if you’re not careful when talking about pro-Israel lobbying, you can provide ammunition to some awful people. By saying that US support for Israel is “all” about money, Omar was essentially mainstreaming ideas that have their roots in anti-Semitism, helping make them more acceptable to voice on the left.



What’s more, this kind of sincere willingness to reconsider past comments is characteristic of Omar. She had previously gotten flak for a tweet about Israel “hypnotizing” the world, and recently gave a lengthy and thoughtful apology for the connection to anti-Semitic tropes during an appearance on The Daily Show.

“I had to take a deep breath and understand where people were coming from and what point they were trying to make, which is what I expect people to do when I’m talking to them, right, about things that impact me or offend me,” she told host Trevor Noah.

This is not the kind of behavior you see from deeply committed anti-Semites. Yair Rosenberg, a journalist at the Jewish magazine Tablet who frequently writes about anti-Semitism, argued on Monday that Omar has earned the benefit of the doubt:

I’ve covered anti-Semitism for years on multiple continents, and this level of self-reflection among those who have expressed anti-Semitism is increasingly rare. Not only did Omar apologize for the specific sentiment, but she put herself in the shoes of her Jewish interlocutors and realized that she ought to extend to them the same sensitivity to anti-Semitism as she would want others to extend to racism. ... Omar has just begun her congressional career, and she has expressed a genuine willingness to reexamine her prior beliefs. She deserves all the denunciation today, yes, but tomorrow, she deserves a chance to move beyond it.

This is what it looks like when the system works. A member of Congress says something offensive, most of her party explains why it’s wrong, and then she issues a sincere apology and demonstrates an interest in changing. That is a healthy party dealing with bad behavior in a healthy way.

This is not what you see on the Republican side when it comes to most forms of bigotry — up to and including anti-Semitism.

Take McCarthy, the House minority leader, whose campaign to stigmatize Omar and fellow Muslim Rep. Rashida Tlaib kicked off this whole incident. Last summer, McCarthy sent a tweet accusing three Democratic billionaires of Jewish descent — George Soros, Tom Steyer, and Michael Bloomberg — of trying to buy the midterm election:

As many noted at the time, this kind of tweet engages in exactly the kind of Protocols-esque rhetoric that Republicans have condemned Omar for. Yet McCarthy quietly deleted the tweet, with nothing like the level of internal criticism from his own party that Omar has faced.

Around the same time, President Trump claimed that protesters against Brett Kavanaugh were being paid by Soros:
