Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), Ayanna Pressley (D-MA), Ilhan Omar (D-MN), and Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) are feeling pretty good. They’re national profile has gone through the roof. They appear to have won their fight with the House leadership. And they have nothing to apologize for, not even peddling or defending anti-Semitism. I wouldn’t expect anything less from this Leninist Girl Scout Troop or maybe four horsewomen of the apocalypseis more appropriate—all four support an agenda that will lead to the economic death of America. They want open borders, they hate Israel, and they want the president impeached. They’re the gift that keeps on giving…for the Republican Party. In swing House districts, these Marxist quartet is defining the Democratic Party for the worst. And for all their exposure, you’d think their approval ratings would be high. They’re actually trash, as is their agenda. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi knows these four are trouble and if they nationalize the House races in 2020, it could be a bloodbath, as the polling shows. The four were interviewed by CBS This Morning (via Free Beacon):

"Often times there are things that you might say might not hold weight for you, but to someone else, the way that we hear and consume information is very different than how the next person might," Omar said.
"So you don't regret your words either?" co-host Gayle King asked.
"I do not, but I have gotten the — I'm grateful for the opportunity to really learn how my words made people feel and have taken every single opportunity I've gotten to make sure that people understood that I apologize for it," Omar said.
King followed up by asking whether Omar would like to make it clear she isn't anti-Semitic.
"Oh certainly not," Omar said.
"Would you like to make that clear?" King asked again.
"Yes, nothing I said, at least to me, was meant for that purpose," Omar said.
Tliab, who famously said the far left was going to “impeach the motherf**ker,” chalking it up to it’s how she is and how her constituents talk. Yet, are we shocked that Omar’s version of her truth, using the Left’s language here, isn’t anti-Semitic? Maybe she doesn’t get that her views are rooted in hatred for Jews. After all, Pelosi tried to defend her in such a manner, saying more or less, that the Minnesota Democrat was too stupid to understand what she was saying the first time she stepped on a rake. Yesterday, Omar said the anti-Israel BDS Movement was like the Boston Tea Party.
