Israel will deny entry to Reps. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) and Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.) during an upcoming overseas trip, according to multiple reports.
The decision was announced moments after President Trump tweeted that it would show “great weakness” for Israel to allow the two congresswomen into the country. The President has let his feelings be known on this issue before now.
The president has been an outspoken critic of both Omar and Tlaib, a couple of anti-Semites.
The congresswomen have supported Palestinian rights and terror groups. They also back the anti-Semitic boycott, divestment and sanctions movement targeting Israel. Both have been accused by other members of Congress of using anti-Semitic language, but leaders of both parties had said they should be allowed to visit Israel.

The President said they hate all Jewish people. Who knows?
