Jean-Pierre Talks Up “Antisemitism Plan” Days After Leading Democrat Called Israel A “Racist State”
On 7/18/2023, White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said, “The administration’s new plan to counter antisemitism. As you all know, this past May, we announced a very comprehensive once-of-a-kind antisemitism plan, which we think is incredibly important at this moment.”

Karine Jean-Pierre Refuses To Comment On Democrat Rep. Cori Bush’s Antisemitic Remarks
On 7/18/2023, a reporter asked White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, “four members of the House who are going to boycott President Herzog’s address tomorrow. And one of them, Representative Cori Bush, said that the Israeli government is “enforcing an apartheid state” and that it “shows no respect for human rights.” So, by your definition, is what Representative Bush said antisemitic?

KJP: Look, what I can say is that the President has a longstanding relationship with Israel. It is — he is committed to their security, committed to continuing that relationship — hence why he is meeting with the President of Israel. And so, that is what’s important. I cannot speak to other — other congressional members in the House. That is for them to speak to why they choose to boycott or to do whatever it is that they’re doing today. But what we can speak to is our commitment — our longstanding commitment to Israel, our longstanding support to Israel.

Q: not comment, but Biden already has held Trump responsible in his rhetoric
Reporter: on January 6th. I understand that you guys aren’t going to comment specifically on this case.

So I’m wondering how does he feel about the fact that the former President may now be held accountable for the events of that day?

KJP: So, look, this is an ongoing case. I’m just not going to respond to — to any hypotheticals that’s currently, you know, out there

With that — oh, you are not Zeke. You are Josh.
Reporter: I am. (Laughter.)
KJP: Hi. Hi, Josh.
Reporter: But if it — if it makes it easier, you can just call me “Zeke.” That’s fine.
KJP: (Laughs.) No, I’m going to call you by your given name.
Reporter: Okay.
KJP: Go ahead, Josh.

Q: Dem Jayapal said that “Israel is a racist state.”
On 7/17/2023, a reporter asked, “on Israel. The Congresswoman Jayapal said that “Israel is a racist state.” She later walked that back, but there’s been one in a number of comments from some Democratic lawmakers about Israel. I’m just wondering if the White House had any response to — to those comments.

Kirby: We saw that she apologized, and we’re glad she did. We think an apology was the right thing to do for those comments.

Q: you took a two-by-four earlier to Senator Tuberville.
Reporter: And then lastly, you took a two-by-four earlier to Senator Tub- — Tuberville. The senator is a —
KJP: A two-by-four. (Laughs.)
