Yes, Omar Should Be Tossed Off The Foreign Relations Committee – The Lid

Sometime on Ground Hog Day 2023, the full House of Representatives will vote on whether Rep Ilhan Omar (D-MN) should be removed from the House Foreign Relations Committee. They are not looking to remove Omar from every committee like was done to Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA), who was banned from serving on any committee. Or Rep Steve King  (R-IA), whose racist comments led him to be banned from serving on any committee. In the case of King, the ban came from his own party, by his own party.

The resolution to take Omar off of Foreign Relations allows her to serve on any other committee except Foreign Relations. Democrats are saying the GOP move to oust her from that committee was revenge for the Republicans, who were banned from any committee by the Democrats. The question they don’t answer is, “Why does it make sense for a woman who hates Jews to influence the way the House treats the Jewish state?”
