On Monday, Representative Debbie Wasserman Schultz (FL-D) wrote an op ed for The Hill in response to Representative Steve King’s (IA-R) statement during an interview with the Boston Herald Radio. He said:
I don’t understand how Jews in America can be Democrats first and Jewish second and support Israel along the line of just following their president. They’re knee-jerk supporters of the president’s policy.
In response, Wasserman Schultz said:
The Democratic Party is the natural home of Jewish Americans.
Do you think the 2nd Amendment will be destroyed by the Biden Administration?(2)
To really drive her point home even though if it was off she also said:
Then she really started to lie when she said the following:American Jews are overwhelmingly Democrats because of our values, and, yes, because of our deep connection to and support of the State of Israel.
To those ends, we are proud of the way President Obama has supported Israel over his tenure – from unprecedented military and intelligence cooperation and economic collaboration to affirming Israel’s right to exist, to defend herself, and to thrive.
Not quite sure where she got that one from. Apparently facts don’t matter anymore.
Wasserman Schultz took it a step farther when she posted her op ed on Twitter:
People quickly took notice but not in a good way. They responded with negative tweets. One person even called her a chicken.The other pointed out a very valid point, it was the Democrats after all who boycotted Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s speech.
Democrats have also been on damage control in recent days trying to mend ways with Israel, well some of them at least. So for Wasserman Schultz to make such claims that were blatant lies either she wanted to see if anyone was paying attention or she needs to start paying more attention herself.
Oh, I almost forgot. This is the same Wasserman Schultz who said that their was a problem with intermarriage in the Jewish community.Remember this eye-opening audio recording of Wasserman Schultz?
