Several House Members including Reps. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) and Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) are vocal supporters of the BDS movement, and other younger, more progressive Democrats who haven't yet spoken out on the issue specifically, are likely to be at least sympathetic to the cause. Alexandria Obviously-Comatose is one of these dolts.
But Reps. Jerrold Nadler (D-NY) and Brad Schneider (D-IL) told Politico that they believe it's time for the House to make a strong statement in support of America's ally, Israel, and they believe the anti-BDS bill is the right way to do it.
"In a letter to colleagues Thursday, Nadler and Schneider described the global attempt to economically isolate Israel as an 'overly-simplistic and one-sided approach,' Politico reported.
“Its goal is Israel’s elimination, not the criticism of any particular policy of Israel,” the pair says about the BDS movement -- a statement that is certain to make both Omar and Tlaib bristle because of their blatant hatred of Jews and thus, the Jewish State of Israel.
Omar, a Somali refugee who is highly critical of the United States has also regularly expressed support for BDS since being elected. She lied however, on the campaign trail, that she had no love for the movement.

Haaretz reported, shortly after the Jew-hater's election, that a spokesperson with her campaign told a website called "MuslimGirl" that Omar fully backed BDS, and that "she has fought to make sure people’s right to support it isn’t criminalized."
If she could have it all her way, she would obviously want the total extermination of Jews decriminalized as well.
Tlaib is so passionate about BDS that she unleashed the historically anti-Semitic "dual loyalty" smear against her Congressional colleagues in the Senate when an anti-BDS bill came up for a vote there earlier this year. At the time, the Daily Wire reported that Tlaib tweeted:

They forgot what country they represent. This is the U.S. where boycotting is a right & part of our historical fight for freedom & equality. Maybe a refresher on our U.S. Constitution is in order, then get back to opening up our government instead of taking our rights away.Ultimately, most Senate Democrats dropped their support for the anti-BDS bill, after atheist Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) and Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) pressured their colleagues to stand up for Americans' "First Amendment rights" by refusing to condemn BDS outright.
It's only hate speech when it's directed against Muslims, illegal aliens and LBGT Democrats.
Only four Democrats voted with Republicans to advance the BDS bill, proving that the GOP really is the party of inclusiveness and the Democrats are the actual racists.
The new House bill will be a true challenge for Nancy "Dancing Hands" Pelosi, who was forced to back down just two weeks ago, when she and other high-profile Dems proposed a simple bill expressing unqualified support for the state of Israel, in opposition to comments made by Rep. Ilhan Omar to a group of progressive activists. Democrats are likely to be split on the issue, and may end up at odds publicly, as they were over the previous efforts.
Nadler and Schneider say they'll be bringing their bill to the floor as early as next week.

Hopefully this will wake up the left-leaning Jewish community and bring them into the Republican fold, but don't count on it.
I hope you'll follow Brain Flushings and have a few laughs while you get a conservative viewpoint. Politics is the new NFL without the mindless kneeling and this blog will both inform you and hopefully entertain you bigly.
