When I heard that we are going to remove a Member of this House from their committee for anti-Semitism, I raced down here because I thought, finally--finally--in this Chamber there is going to be some accountability, some accountability from this Conference that continues to allow its members to root for rioters, to show sympathy for the insurrection, a Conference that harbors a wanted international criminal and has members who choose violence over voting every single day. Finally. I thought that if we were going to hold someone accountable for anti- Semitism, surely it is the author of this tweet: ``Kanye. Elon. Trump.'' October 6, written by Chairman Jim Jordan. October 8, what does Kanye say? That he is going to declare ``death con 3'' on the Jews. So, surely, this tweet came down, that it was deleted? No. Two more months it was kept up. Don't come here looking at us for anti-Semitism. Look in your own damn mirror before you ever come over here.
