Exclusive — Rep. Lee Zeldin: Democrats ‘Run Interference’ for Ilhan Omar’s Antisemitism, Anti-Americanism Because ‘They Are Fearful’ of the Squad
Robert Kraychik 14 Jun 2021
Rep. Lee Zeldin (R-NY) told Breitbart News on Monday that Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and the broader Democrat Party depend on Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) and her “wing of the party” to maintain power in Washington, DC.
Zeldin noted that Democrats’ narrow eight-seat majority in the House of Representatives — Democrats’ 219 seats to Republicans’ 211 — further amplifies the political power held by Omar and her fellow “Squad” colleagues: Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), Ayanna Pressley (D-MA), Rashida Tlaib (D-MI), Cori Bush (D-MO), and Jamaal Bowman (D-NY).
“[Ilhan Omar] helps keep Nancy Pelosi in power, and they are [so] fearful of this wing of the party that’s taken over more and more of the party that they’re going to run cover,” Zeldin said on SiriusXM’s Breitbart News Daily with host Alex Marlow, author of Breaking the News: Exposing the Establishment Media’s Hidden Deals and Secret Corruption.
On June 7, Omar grouped the U.S. and Israel with Hamas and the Taliban in terms of commission of “crimes against humanity.” She tweeted, “We must have the same level of accountability and justice for all victims of crimes against humanity. We have seen unthinkable atrocities committed by the U.S., Hamas, Israel, Afghanistan, and the Taliban. I asked [Secretary Antony Blinken] where people are supposed to go for justice.”
