Omar’s Most Frequent Attacker Zeldin Sets His Sights On Her Again After Miller Insult

Rep. Lee Zeldin (R-NY), who has mostly made a name for himself this term by being an omnipresent thorn in Rep. Ilhan Omar’s (D-MN) side, took to Twitter once again to blast her for calling White House senior adviser Stephen Miller a “white supremacist.”

The two have slung religious intolerance-based insults at each other before when they came to verbal blows over the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and BDS.

That spat ended with a (short-lived) pseudo-reconciliation over the condemnation of the religious hatred both of them receive.

  3. I’m waiting for the comment from Zeldin about Trump saying to American Jews about Bibi- “your prime minister”…

  4. Listen Zeldin, because someone is Jewish doesn’t mean they are sacrosanct from criticism.

  5. Puny little sh*t can only pick on a woman? Or is it because she a Muslim? Or is it because she has been beaten up by her own party and he is only chiming in because he thinks she’s weak?
