China is responsible for this pandemic

China is responsible for this pandemic. From day one, the Chinese Communist Party intentionally deceived the world on the extent and severity of the virus. And now there is growing evidence that the virus didn't just start in China but was unintentionally let out of a lab in Wuhan. If this is indeed the case, China is responsible for every single life lost because of the virus and every dollar spent fighting this virus.

2013: GOP support of Israel shows "dual loyalties"

They do control the Republican Party right now. The Republican Party is essentially a neoconservative party that believes [in] unending support for Israel. A blind loyalty towards Israel is the linchpin of being a good Republican. And when you get those sort of dual loyalties, what happens when it's not in America's best interest?

Question dual loyalty of American Jews toward Israel

Jason Lewis said on the radio in 2013 that some of his fellow Republicans had "dual loyalties" to the U.S. and Israel, and he attributed political support for the country to what he called "a very strong American Jewish lobby."

Lewis's comments are similar to a comment from Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar last February about Israel's political influence in Washington. Omar, a Democrat, faced widespread condemnation for what critics on both sides of the aisle described as playing on anti-Semitic tropes. Omar apologized.

Lewis was a longtime Minnesota radio talk show host before 2016. Lewis said his radio job "meant asking rhetorical questions, challenging audiences, playing devil's advocate and seeing both sides of every issue." His campaign manager said Lewis's House voting record showed strong support for the U.S.-Israel relationship.

In the 2013 broadcast, Lewis claimed "there were a number of dual citizens" making policy during the administration of President George W. Bush.
