GOP chairwoman Ronna McDaniel wants to know why we haven’t heard (presumably) the next House Speaker Nancy Pelosi condemn Michigan Democrat Rashida Tlaib’s support of a boycott of Israel.
It’s been a week since Rashida Tlaib became the second new House Democrat to support the boycott and delegitimization of Israel.
Nancy Pelosi still hasn’t condemned it.

Tlaib is the first ever Palestinian-American elected to Congress.
From the Jerusalem Post:
In an interview with The Intercept, Tlaib publicly endorsed the BDS movement and announced she would refuse an annual trip to Israel hosted by the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) for freshman congressmen, and instead will organize a competing delegation to “occupied Palestine.”
Tlaib isn’t the only Democrat to support a boycott of Israel.
Ilhan Omar of Minnesota also supports it and calls the nation “evil.”
Israel has hypnotized the world, may Allah awaken the people and help them see the evil doings of Israel. #Gaza #Palestine #Israel

McDaniel brought it up last week when Tlaib announced her stance.
Two new House Dems – Rashida Tlaib & Ilhan Omar – proudly support the BDS movement to boycott & delegitimize Israel.
Are they calling for a boycott of anyone else? No, just the Jewish people in the world’s only Jewish state.
Will Pelosi condemn this anti-Semitism in her caucus?

Is.
