Ellison, the first Muslim elected to Congress, had ties to the Nation of Islam and defended its anti-Semitic leader Louis Farrakhan

Ellison, who is running to be the new chair of the Democratic National Committee was amongst the minority of Democrats who voted against the effort to condemn the UN censure of Israel. Not surprising

Ellison represents the extreme left wing of the Democratic Party, just when the party -- if it is to win again -- must move to the center

Ellison convinced 53 other Democratic members of congress to sign the infamous “Gaza 54” which falsely accused Israel of humiliating and wreaking “collective punishment” on Gaza

Ellison trafficked with incredibly virulent, open anti-Semites supporting and defending them until it became politically inconvenient, then lied about it, once in office he started targeting Israel

Some pro-Israel activists recall, with dismay, Ellison's efforts to unseat a pro-Israel New Jersey congressman, Steve Rothman, in 2012.
