• The co-hosts of ABC’s “The View” on Friday argued over whether Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., should have been voted off the House Foreign Affairs Committee for her history of antisemitic comments.
• Co-host Joy Behar sparked a verbal battle during the Friday episode of the daytime talk show by claiming she doesn’t believe Omar’s excuses for some of her antisemitic remarks, suggesting the Democratic congresswoman isn’t as innocent as she claims.
• Behar: “(Omar) said that she did not know that what she said that was construed as anti-Semitic, she didn’t know that was what they call a ‘Jewish trope.’ And that she didn’t know that, that people equate money with Jews, for instance. I don’t believe her.”
