The media is eating Ilhan Omar alive for her remarks about lobbyists acting in favor of Israel. Thing is, she hasn't said or done anything but point out the blatant truth of where most of our politicians are being bought from.
I don't know if its that I'm just paying attention more, but it seems like a lot more people are calling out Israel for their parasitic politics.
The boycott legislation didn't get a lot of coverage but rustled some Jimmies. The big factor is that the liberals have loosely decided that Palestine is the victim of Israel and anything Israel branded is bad. Since the congresswoman is middle eastern ethnicity that is close enough to draw a parallel between the Israel vs. Palestine conflict and big bad AIPAC vs. congresswoman.
