Prominent Democratic strategist and former Clinton White House communications director Ann Lewis appeared to sidestep the anti-Israel issues surrounding freshmen Reps. Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.), Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) and Alexandria Ocasio Cortez (D-N.Y.).
Lewis was speaking at an event hosted by Zioness Movement, a group that advocates progressive causes, in addition to speaking out against anti-Semitism, as the leaders of the Women’s March have associated with Jew-hatred such as supporting Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan. Lewis, who serves on the board of Zioness, called the aforementioned congresswomen as “two-and-a-half people” with Ocasio-Cortez being “much more muted on foreign policy.”
