(Pioneer Press) U.S. Rep. Ilhan Omar of Minneapolis found herself in hot water Friday, accused, again, of anti-Semitism for fresh remarks about American Jews who support Israel.
And she had just tried to put this behind her.
Over the past two weeks, Omar had several meetings in Minnesota with local Jewish leaders.
It was essentially part of a low-profile, not-on-Twitter, fence-mending tour following Omar’s remarks earlier in the month many saw as anti-Semitic and part of a pattern that dates back several years.
Then, on Thursday night, she said something publicly that many took as a statement that questioned the patriotism of American Jews.
