@jdickerson You, along with many of the talking heads, are making the mistake of assuming they'd have the votes of progressives/liberals/Dems for whatever "bipartisan" nonsense they come up with. Margins are slim.
The attacks on Ilhan Omar serve to distract from the fact that both the United States and Israel decided NOT to become part of the International Criminal Court.
Other states who did not join include:
China
India
Iraq
Libya
Yemen
Qatar
And Russia withdrew its signature in 2016.
@TWLadyGrey Jesus Christ. Lmao Brb, gonna go look up the physiological profile of people who... go to Dunkin' Donuts. 🤣 Do the "good" Muslims get glazed or frosted?? Ffs.
Dear Ilhan Omar:
— You’re correct to point out atrocities committed by US.
— You’re correct to point out atrocities committed by Israel.
— You’re correct to point out atrocities committed by Hamas/Taliban.
All are EQUALLY accountable.
PS: Keep speaking out on human rights…
Actually the US has likely committed worse atrocities than the Taliban and Hamas combined. Remember the Iraq war? Abu ghraib?
The Jewish Congressional Caucus should find something constructive to do with its time instead of bad faith attacks on Ilhan Omar.
It’s shameful for colleagues who call me when they need my support to now put out a statement asking for “clarification” and not just call.
The islamophobic tropes in this statement are offensive. The constant harassment & silencing from the signers of this letter is unbearable.

Wait till you hear about the new guy and his party's leader. https://t.co/ZFcHgMQs8E
@ArgentMottyl @katierogers@ktbenner I'm underwhelmed, too. From blocking the Barr memo, to blocking the zero tolerance documents, to tossing the Lafayette Sq lawsuit... underwhelming is... being generous.
