On Tuesday’s The View, co-host Sunny Hostin claimed that Nancy Pelosi“pulled” Minnesota’s Democrat Rep. Ilhan Omar aside to rebuke and force her to apologize for a 2019 tweet that parroted anti-Semitic tropes.
Hostin said that Omar has “never said anything like that again,” which is not true. Omar, shortly after apologizing for the first tweet, pushed another anti-Semitic go-to about dual loyalty.
“I want to talk about the political influence in this country that says it is okay for people to push for allegiance to a foreign country,” she said at an event.
In response, Pelosi said that Omar “has a different experience in the use of words [and] doesn’t understand that some of them are fraught with meaning.”
Co-host Sara Haines pointed out that Omar last year compared the United States and Israel to the Taliban and Hamas. Haines correctly noted that the Taliban and Hamas are “organized terrorist communities.”
“Depends on who you talk to,” interjected Whoopi Goldberg.
