White House counselor Kellyanne Conway blasted Congresswoman Ilhan Omar’s tweets Monday, implying that House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy maintains a pro-Israel stance because of lobbyist dollars.
“You’ve got this congresswoman from Minnesota, again anti-semitic sewage spilling from her mouth overnight,” Conway declared in an extended riff on strife within the Democratic party. Conway added that she would like to see Democratic presidential hopefuls asked if they agree with Omar’s comments on the Israel lobby.
Conway’s reaction is the first from the White House after Omar’s tweets, which have been widely panned by Republican and Democrat’s alike. Omar’s tweet implied that McCarthy was only calling for punishment against her and fellow Democratic House member Rashida Tlaib because of financial support from the pro-Israel lobby.
