Show Notes

Back in March, Rep. Ilhan Omar spoke passionately about pro-Israel political forces that “push for allegiance to a foreign country.” She later apologized for unwittingly deploying an anti-Semitic trope. Why were Omar’s words so triggering? And is she making a fair point? 

Guest: Slate economics & policy writer Jordan Weissmann. 

This episode originally aired in March 2019. 

Podcast production by Mary Wilson and Jayson De Leon.
