On Thursday’s episode of “The Sara Carter Show,” Fox Business host Lou Dobbs explained the Trump presidency and its historical significance, saying President Trump entered the White House a critical time. Trump’s entrance into politics certainly shook up the political establishment of both Republicans and Democrats running the show in Washington, D.C., Dobbs told host Sara A. Carter.

“It’s about a man who arrived at the perfect moment in history, to do what had to be done to save this country’s destiny and to restore our greatness as a nation. I after years, and I’m referring to both political parties, years of leadership that was not always in alignment with our national interest, and with the needs and the interests of the American people and the American working man and woman, this president chose the perfect, perfect time in history, to step forward or go down that escalator to announce his candidacy,” Dobbs said.

He added, “He (Trump) has changed everything. People may not even realize that for 20 years preceding President Trump’s decision to run for president, we had stagnant wages in the middle class. Now the middle class, right is the bedrock of this nation. It’s where the American Dream resides most brightly, it is so critical to all that we are and identify as, as Americans, it is where we look to if we aspire to the middle class, it’s where we look to, to, to arrive, and from which we hope that we will launch the next generation to do even better than we do.”

Democratic Rep. Ilhan Omar was voted off the House Foreign Affairs Committee Thursday. The action was expected, as Republican members of Congress had criticized Omar’s antisemetic and anti-American rhetoric.

After intense debating on the House floor, the resolution passed with a 218-211 vote. Democrats attempted to pull the race card, accusing Republican House members of racism for removing Omar from the committee.

Omar also accused House Republicans of racism, saying, “I am Muslim, I am an immigrant, and interestingly, from Africa…Is anyone surprised that I am being targeted? Is anyone surprised that I am somehow deemed unworthy to speak about American foreign policy, or that they see me as a powerful voice that needs to be silenced?”

“There is this idea that you are a suspect if you are an immigrant or if you are from certain parts of the world or certain skin tone or a muslim.” Omar said during the heated debate. A fiery Alexandria Ocasia Cortez also chimed in shouting, “This is an attack on women of color!”

Republican Rep. Nicole Malliotakis, from New York, said she had personally witnessed Omar spew anti-American rhetoric. Malliotakis said, “I have been in that committee room where, the representative, equates Israel and the United States to Hamas and the Taliban. Absolutely unacceptable for a member of that committee.”

A four-page resolution was written for the justification of removing Omar from the house Foreign Affairs Committee. The resolution states that in 2019, Omar suggested that Jewish people were buying U.S. political support when she posted on Twitter, “it’s all about the Benjamins, baby.”

Omar also commented on the September 11th attacks saying, “some people did something.” This type of comment is unacceptable for any representative who is sitting on the House Foreign Affairs Committee, lawmakers said.

In the resolution it states that members of this committee should all be held to an “equal standard of conduct due to the international sensitivities and national security concerns under the jurisdiction of this committee.”
