White House squirms under questions after Dem lawmaker called Israel a 'racist state'
Fox News
Fox News' Jacqui Heinrich pressed White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre Tuesday over Rep. Pramila Jayapal calling Israel a "racist state."
"I mean, the president has been very clear, right? And I kind of stated this, at the beginning, the United States and Israel's relationship is a special one. There's a special bond, there's a commitment. And it is a commitment to Israel's right to exist, Israel's security and its legitimacy," Jean-Pierre said.

"They're going to have a conversation on how we continue to grow that special relationship. As I just laid out, 75 years of Israel's independence is being celebrated this year and we think it's important to continue that relationship," she said, sidestepping the question about Jayapal's comment.
