Omar & Tlaib Cross the Line, Double Down On Anti-Israel Bias By Sharing Holocaust-Denier's Tweet
If there was ever a doubt, it should be gone…
John Salvatore
As if everything they've said about Israel wasn't bad enough, Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib decided to take things a full step further.
It's pretty bad.
And yet, nobody in the mainstream media will say a word – neither will any of their liberal colleagues.

Oof. Looks like both Rep. Omar and Rep. Tlaib shared this awful Carlos Latuff cartoon in Instagram stories yesterday. In 2006, Latuff came in second in Iran's International Holocaust Cartoon Contest, which is a thing that exists, in case you thought the TL couldn't get any worse.

Ungar-Sargon pointed out that the artist who drew the cartoon, Carlos Latuff, has a history of cartoons that compare Israel to Nazis, including an entry in the 2006 Iran Holocaust Cartoon Contest that won him second place.
Latuff himself shared the cartoon on his Twitter page, and early Sunday morning he posted a link to an interview he did with the Forward where he discussed his controversial artwork. He defended his use of the Holocaust to criticize Israel's treatment of Palestinians, even while acknowledging that the two are not exactly the same.
"Of course Israel isn't building gas chambers in the West Bank, but surely we can find some similarities between the treatment given to Palestinians by the [Israel Defense Forces] and the Jews under Nazi rule," Latuff said.
Turns out the women who support BDS were anti-Semites! What a twist!

Antisemities sharing antisemitic cartoons and continue to be antisemitic? I'm shocked

They posted counting on outrage to spread this editorial cartoon even further, with which some people will agree. My vote is not to even post.

What the actual f***. It shouldn't be too much to ask that members of Congress not promote the work of anti-Semitic cartoonists. Surely someone on their staffs has access to google! 🙄

WATCH: Dems On MSNBC Now Spreading Conspiracy Theory That Trump Has Alzheimer's
President Trump, well known for being a counterpuncher, has had enough of the Democratic Party taking shots at him, raking him over the coals, and being in the way of him accomplishing the agenda he set out to accomplish when campaigning for president back in 2015-2016. The latest scheme of the Democrats is, of course, the impeachment proceedings, with the Senate trial set to begin this week. Trump has claimed there has been "zero fairness" for him by the radical left in this country who have been on a witch hunt to see him removed from office for a long, long time. Here's more from Fox News: "They didn't want John Bolton and others in the House. They were in too much of a rush. Now they want them all in the Senate. Not supposed to be that way!" Trump tweeted Monday, referring to Democrat-sought witnesses like Bolton, his ex-national security adviser. https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1219285375736328192 "Cryin' Chuck Schumer is now asking for 'fairness,' when he and the Democrat House members worked together to make sure I got ZERO fairness in the House," he continued. "So, what else is new?" https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1219286662221651970 The president's tweet comes just hours after Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., vowed to "force votes on witnesses and documents" in the impeachment trial, which is slated to begin Tuesday. "We Democrats aim to get the truth," Schumer said. "Make no mistake about it, we will force votes on witnesses and documents, and it will be up to four Republicans to side with the Constitution, to side with our democracy, to side with the rule of law, and not side, in blind obeisance, to President Trump and his desire to suppress the truth. Because, in my judgment, he probably thinks he's guilty." One thing liberals have never been able to stand…
Gun Rights Activists In Virginia Want Northam To Step Down: 'Racist Ralph Has Got To Go'
Things are heating up in Virginia as pro-Second Amendment citizens of the state show up at a massive pro-gun protest rally to let the state government, particularly Gov. Ralph Northam — the blackface guy — know exactly what they think of the gun ban being pushed by Democrats in the government. Protesters made it clear in no uncertain terms they've had enough of Northam, as they demanded that he step down from his position immediately. Here's more on this from The Washington Examiner: "Hey-hey, ho-ho, racist Ralph has got to go," the protesters chanted about Gov. Ralph Northam, a Democrat. https://twitter.com/dcexaminer/status/1219252570612555776 Thousands of Second Amendment activists took to the streets for a rally on Monday in response to sweeping gun legislation proposed by Northam and the commonwealth's Democratic-controlled General Assembly. https://twitter.com/MichaelCoudrey/status/1219270532668915713 The legislation would limit purchases of handguns to once a month, virtually ban military-style weapons, and give local governments the authority to seize guns from people law enforcement deems a threat to the public. The proposed measure has sparked outrage among gun enthusiasts in the state, where nearly 100 towns, cities, and counties have declared themselves "Second Amendment sanctuaries." https://twitter.com/gmoomaw/status/1219275065000415233 Our Founding Fathers would truly be proud of the people of Virginia for opposing tyranny and standing up boldly for their God-given right to defend themselves from oppressive government by upholding the Second Amendment, featured prominently in the Bill of Rights in the Constitution. This is precisely why they also enshrined freedom of speech in the Constitution, to enable every day citizens to air their grievances with the government and allow like-minded individuals to form movements that would put pressure on elected officials to uphold the law of the land. Kudos, Virginia.
