Maybe establishment party hacks and donors will think twice about making up rumors of antisemitism in the future. Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian, hosts of The Young Turks, discuss. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.

"Top candidates vying to be the next chair of of the Democratic National Committee rebuked one of the party’s wealthiest donors on Wednesday, calling on billionaire Haim Saban to apologize for labelling Rep. Keith Ellison (D-Minn.) “an anti-Semite.”

HuffPost’s Ryan Grim asked the seven DNC candidates on stage to raise their hands if they believed Saban needed to apologize for calling Ellison an “anti-Semite” who “would be a disaster for the relationship between the Jewish community and the Democratic Party.”

All but Jehmu Greene and Ellison raised their hands, including Ray Buckley, Jaime Harrison, Sally Boynton-Brown, Pete Buttigieg and Thomas Perez.

“An attack against one of us really is an attack against all of us,” Buckley said.

“Keith is a great guy,” Harrison said. “I don’t believe that there’s an anti-Semitic bone in his body.”

Greene, a former Fox News commentator, didn’t call for Saban to apologize. “We need to stop falling for these gotcha questions,” she said, claiming “the media” was trying to “divide our funders from our leaders.”"
