At least seven House Democrats are known to have direct ties to Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan Farrakhan is a notorious anti-Semite and racist A photo shows Barack Obama smiling with Farrakhan at a Congressional Black Caucus meeting in 2005.
At least seven House Democrats are known to have direct ties to Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan, a notorious anti-Semite and racist who has called Jews "Satanic" and said white people "Deserve to die."
Davis called Farrakhan an "Outstanding human being" in an interview with The Daily Caller in February and said he has regularly visited with Farrakhan.
The statement, which did not mention Farrakhan, claimed that anti-Semitism is "Antithetical to everything I believe and everything that I work for on a daily basis." Davis' attack on reporters covering his claims came after the Anti-Defamation League, a Jewish civil rights organization, blasted the congressman for praising Farrakhan and called on him to denounce the Nation of Islam leader.
Ellison is a former Nation of Islam member and once defended Farrakhan against claims of anti-Semitism but claimed in 2006 when he ran for Congress that he had left Farrakhan in his past.
The meetings Ellison has since attended with Farrakhan undercut his claims of cutting ties.
The Congressional Black Caucus held a meeting with Farrakhan in 2005 where then Democratic Sen. Barack Obama of Illinois was photographed smiling with Farrakhan.
