Hey, everybody, this is Carmine Sabia for Explain America
0:02
And, you know, folks, some days I come on here and I don't know
0:06
you know exactly how I'm going to explain something that's happening in the government, in Congress or whatever
0:12
And then some days there's just not much you have to say. And so today is one of those days
0:18
So what I'm going to tell you before we start this video is first, you know, to help us more channel like ours out, we need you to like, comment
0:24
share, subscribe, please follow us and explain America on Facebook. Please go to your little search bar on top
0:30
Type in Explain America Lounge. I know it seems monotonous when I say these things, but they really
0:35
really help a small channel like ours and conservatives. Well, we need all the help we can get
0:40
And there's some other people that need all the help they can get. Two members of the squad named Representatives
0:46
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Rashida Tlaib. They went out of their minds, folks
0:54
after Kevin McCarthy and the Republicans took Ilhan Omar off her committee
0:59
the representative from Minnesota. They took her off her committee because of past anti-Semitic remarks
1:05
They didn't believe she belonged on the Foreign Relations Committee. And I can't say I blame them
1:11
Now, this, the reaction. AOC, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, blames the fact that they're going after women of color
1:21
Well, Eric Swalwell and Adam Schiff, two other white male representatives, were taken off their committees
1:28
Are they women of color? Is that how they're identifying them? I didn't hear that in the news
1:33
And then Rashida Tlaib. You just have to watch the video I'm about to show you
1:37
She breaks down in tears. Guys, watch this video. Share this video
1:41
Hilarious. Be nice for one minute. Thank you. Now, as also as a fellow New Yorker, I think one of the things that we should
1:51
talk about here is also one of the disgusting legacies after 9-11 has been the targeting
1:55
and racism against Muslim Americans throughout the United States of America. And this is an extension of that legacy. Consistency
2:03
There is nothing consistent with the Republican Party's continued attack, except for the racism
2:08
and incitement of violence against women of color in this body. I had a member of the Republican caucus threaten my life, and you all and the Republican caucus
2:17
rewarded him with one of the most prestigious committee assignments in this Congress
2:22
Don't tell me this is about consistency. Don't tell me that this is about a condemnation of anti-Semitic remarks when you have a member
2:31
of the Republican caucus who has talked about Jewish space lasers and an entire amount of
2:37
tropes and also elevated her to some of the highest committee assignments in this body
2:41
This is about targeting women of color in the United States of America
2:46
Don't tell me because I didn't get a single apology. My life was threatened
2:51
Thank you. Censor Congresswoman Omar in the same week, they introduced a bill to ban federal employees
2:59
from engaging in censorship. Where are the free speech warriors today? The hypocrisy is obvious to the American people
3:09
You are showing who you all are, really. The gentleman's time has expired
3:15
I will not be silent. The gentleman's time expired. Congresswoman Omar, I am so sorry that our country is failing you today
3:24
Through this chamber, you belong in the next committee. The gentleman is no longer recognized and the gentleman from Mississippi is recognized
3:35
Madam Speaker, I reserve. Gentleman from Mississippi. Thank you
