Pence calls for Omar to be removed from House Foreign Affairs committee

Vice President Pence renewed his calls on Friday for Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) to be removed from her post on the House Foreign Affairs Committee over her comments about Israel and Venezuela.

“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 an interview on Fox News.

"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,” he added.

The rookie lawmaker has been a frequent target of Republican lawmakers on Capitol Hill.

Just so much Moslem baiting. I'd much rather see the House Foreign Relations committee subpoena Pence about his knowledge of Mike Flynn's collusion with Russians.

They were the ones that let Iran know about the STUXNET virus in the controller mechanism that ran the uranium centrifuges. As a result, our banks and other critical infrastructure were hacked by Iran, just to let us know that they could.

Israel looks out for Israel. Israel looks out for the US when it is convenient. This will be typical for almost any nation.

As soon as you remove actual Republican criminals (Chris Collins and Duncan Hunter) and actual Republican racist (Steve King, Mark Meadows and Matt Gaetz) from Congress.

to the office of vice-president as prelude to her becoming president by nomination and confirmation by Congress. When Trump does the right thing and resigns due to the the role of Russia and the Trump family in corrupting our 2016 election ( in which the winner, H. Clinton was denied the office to which voters elected her) Clinton then can take her rightful role as president.


One step forward for justice...... then we deal with the court appointments.
