28. McCarthy's Objection

to Rep. Omar serving on the Foreign Affairs Committee, I think, has to do w/ 1) She was born in Somalia, was displaced by war there, and immigrated to the USA. Repugs don't like "furriners."
2) She has the audacity to hold Israel accountable for its many human rights violations against the Palestinians. Repugs don't like that.
