Pelosi on Rep. Omar: ‘I Feel Confident that Her Words Were Not Based on Any Anti-Semitic Attitude’

EXCERPT:

PELOSI: “I understand how advocates come in with their enthusiasms, but when you cross that threshold into Congress your words weigh much more than when you are shouting it at somebody outside. And I feel confident that her words were not based on any anti-Semitic attitude, but she didn’t have a full appreciation of how they landed on other people where these -- these words have a history and a cultural impact that may have been unknown to her."
