>> Representative Ilhan Omar is a lawmaker who was elected by a large margin in Minnesota.
However, Republican lawmakers in the state of Alabama are attempting to essentially expel
her from her position.
So, the resolution which urges the state's elected congressional delegation to launch
the expulsion process for Omar, was passed over the weekend during a summer meeting in
Auburn, Alabama.
So, this is actually something that can be done, all though it is very unlikely that
this will be done because there needs to be a vote in the House of Representatives, and
2/3 of Congress needs to vote in favor of expelling Ilhan Omar, but nonetheless, here
is what we're seeing from GOP lawmakers in the state of Alabama.
There's precedence for Article 1, Section 5 of the Constitution being invoked to expel
members of Congress based on disloyalty to the United States.
That is a comment from state representative Tommy Hanes.
He's the person who has initiated this and is pushing the process.
He also says representative Omar is ungrateful to the United States.
And the opportunities that have been afforded to her.
Her rhetoric is despicable and unpatriotic.
So, he thinks that her comments about Israel and remember, there was a video that went
viral where she talks about loyalty, right?
He thinks that she is saying that she's not loyal to the United States.
That's the way they're trying to twist it.
>> No, no, there's a great irony here.
So you're going to see what she actually said in a second, but they're saying, since she's
not loyal to Israel, she's not loyal to America.
>> Yeah.
>> You're the one then claiming dual loyalty, that we should have dual loyalty.
Which is what you're pretending to be offended by.
But hey Republicans, what's the use of logic, right?
>> Yeah, and they're of course accusing her of being anti semitic, we're gonna come back
to that in just a second.
But first, I just wanna reiterate.
What she said, what she actually said is very different from the way Republicans are trying
to twist it.
So let's take a look.
>> I am fearful of is that because Rashid and I are Muslim, that a lot of our Jewish
colleagues, a lot of our constituents, a lot of our allies, go to thinking that everything
we say about Israel to be an anti semitic because we are Muslim.
And so to me, it's something that becomes designed to end the debate, that ends the
discussion because we end up defending that and nobody ever gets to have a proper debate
of what is happening with.
>> And with the attack of political influence, in this country, that says it is okay for
people to push for allegiance to a foreign country.
I want to ask why is it okay for me to talk about the influence of the NRA, of fossil
fuel industries, or big pharma, and not talk about a powerful lobbying group that is influencing
policy.
>> That is what she said, that is the full context of what she said.
And she specifically mentioned that she does not want to pledge allegiance to a foreign
country.
>> She, the whole point of the speech was I don't want there to be dual allegiance.
Republicans flip it on its head and go, see, she wants, she's accusing people of having
double allegiance.
No, she said the exact opposite.
She doesn't want anybody to have dual allegiance, and she doesn't have dual allegiance.
All right, anyway, so let's go back to the monsters in Alabama cuz, first of all, she
busted him up good.
>> She did.
>> And then we're gonna add on top of it and then we're gonna show you who the real anti-semite
is.
>> Exactly.
So, Ilhan Omar responded to this.
And here's what she had to say, and I love the fact that she fights no matter what.
She's not intimidated ever.
She says sorry, Alabama GOP, but this is a representative democracy.
I was elected with 78% of the vote by the people of Minnesota's 5th District, not the
Alabama Republican Party.
If you want to clean up politics, maybe don't nominate an accused child molester as your
Senate candidate.
>> Boom.
Love it.
That's called strength.
>> Delicious.
>> Pelosi look into it.
Okay.
>> So good.
>> Are there only four people or whatever?
>> I mean this is a woman who is dealing with constant threats to her life because of Donald
Trump targeting her, because of Democratic leadership abandoning her and refusing to
defend her.
I mean and she's still fighting.
She's incredible.
>> So notice the irony, not the irony but the Alabama Republicans like the bad days.
And going back and going, we have decided that the people of Minnesota shouldn't get
to choose.
We should get to choose our representatives.
So, we are just going to nullify what they have done.
And she should be expelled because the white racist Republicans in Alabama don't like this
black representative.
So, we should get rid of her.
You don't like her?
Do you?
Okay.
We'll take it under god damn advisement.
Okay.
In other words, we won't give a damn what you think.
And in fact, we're about to bust you up pretty good right here.
>> Exactly.
So, Ilhan Omar for anyone who might have missed it, did draw attention to the fact that Republican
lawmakers in Alabama supported Roy Moore who was accused by at least six women of molestation,
sexual assault.
Some of the women were under age at the time that he allegedly did these things, and so
they supported him, they backed him, and luckily he didn't win.
However, there is other problematic issues at hand when it comes to Alabama.
In fact, the representative from Alabama's 5th district, this gentleman by the name of
Moe Brooks.
And recently, he quoted Hitler, to go after Democrats, if you don't believe me, here he
is.
>> Quote, in the big lie, there's always a certain force of credibility because the broad
masses of a nation are always more easily corrupted and the deeper strata of their emotional
nature, then consciously or voluntarily.
And thus, in the primitive simplicity of their minds., they more readily fall victims to
the big lie than the small lie, since they themselves often tell small lies and little
matters, but be ashamed to resort to large scale falsehoods.
Who is this big lie master?
That quote was in 1925 by a member of Germany's National Socialist German Worker's Party.
That's right.
Germany's Socialist Party more commonly known as the Nazis.
The author was socialist Adolf Hitler in his book Mein Kampf.
>> So he quoted Adolf Hitler in an attempt to attack Democrats, so in his context, Democrats
would be the Jewish individuals that Adolf Hitler was attacking.
>> Unbelievable, and you know how much you can coverage a new analysis is out.
Ilhan Omar's comments twisted completely not out of context, the exact opposite of what
she had said, got about 470 mentions on cable news.
You know how many Moe Brooks got, zero.
The actual anti-semite positively quoting Hitler on the congressional floor gets no
metions at all in cable news but the idiot democratic leadership helps to bash Ilhan
Omar.
So everybody goes well, I guess she must be wrong and Moe Brooks positively quoting Hitler
is right.
So if any member of the Alabama delegation dares to actually introduce this in the United
States Congress, if the Democrats had any knowledge of how to use power, what they would
do is go that's an interesting point but I don't know if you know this, we're in charge
of the House, you're not.
We're now moving to expel every member of the Alabama Republican delegation but certainly,
starting with Moe Brooks.
Moe Brooks is an anti-semite who quoted Adolph Hitler on the floor of the house and we move
to expel him immediately.
And now you need two thirds of the house.
The Democrats easily control the house but they don't have two thirds.
That's okay.
Republicans, I'd like to see you go on the record and defend the guy quoting Hitler positively.
Go ahead.
No problem.
I mean, by the way, I know you're going to, you all supported the child molester.
So, accused child molester, I read the stories.
You know what he did, what did, one of the instances.
He got a young girl, that was a waitress for him, and when he was in his 30's, she's a
teen, and he said I give a ride home.
And she get's in the car and he starts ripping her clothes off, and attacks her, and tries
to rape her.
And they are like, that's a good American Family values guy.
Us Alabama Republicans are so moral.
Quoting Hitler and in favor of child molesters.
Expel all their asses, give it a shot.
Look Democrats, I know that your leadership is pathetically weak.
But I don't know if you know this, you're in charge of the House.
You don't have to worry about what Republicans are gonna do, they should be worried about
what you're going to do.
Can they ever exercise power on our behalf?
Of course not Nancy Pelosi who's still hiding in a corner somewhere.
>> And of course, how can we forget?
They have no problem with the anti semitic remarks coming from Donald Trump.
And our very own Jackson put together a mash up, just to remind everyone of who the Alabama
delegation is in full support of.
Take a look.
>> I stood with Prime Minister Netanyahu.
I stood with your Prime Minister at the White House to recognize Israeli sovereignty.
I think any Jewish people that vote for a Democrat, I think it shows either a total
lack of knowledge or great disloyalty.
For those who control the levers of power in Washington and for the global special interests,
they partner with these people.
I'm a negotiator like you folks, we're negotiators.
Do you wanna renegotiate deals?
Some of us renegotiate deals.
I would say about 99.9, is there anybody that doesn't renegotiate deals in this room?
This room negotiates, I want to this room, perhaps more than any room I've ever spoken
to.
>> Maybe more.
It's okay.
I've been called in that a couple of times too.
In my opinion, you vote for Democrats, you're being very disloyal to Jewish people and you're
being very disloyal to Israel.
>> Where's the Alabama delegation?
Where are those conservative lawmakers who are so upset with representative Ilhan Omar,
but have nothing to say about Moe Brooks, and have nothing to say about Donald Trump?
>> Trump just said there on a number of occasions, the Jewish people are disloyal to Israel.
They're Jewish Americans, they're Americans and yes, 75% to 80% of Jewish Americans consistently
vote for Democrats not Republicans.
Cuz they're Americans.
But he accuses them of having dual loyalty which I hear from the Alabama Republicans,
is good enough to expel someone from their job.
So I'm sure that they're going to join an impeachment proceedings imminently.
