• Congresswoman Cori Bush’s Antisemitism Problem

  • Congresswoman Cori Bush (D-MO) has professed her commitment to “dismantling antisemitism,” yet her close association and friendship with one of St. Louis’ well-known and virulent antisemites, Neveen Ayesh, tells a different story.

    Ayesh held a fundraiser for Bush in October 2020. Bush not only sanctioned the fundraiser, she attended it, along with her special guests Linda Sarsour and Congressswoman Rashida Tlaib, both of whom are virulently anti-Israel and have faced serious charges of antisemitism themselves.
  • Who Is Neveen Ayesh

  • Neveen Ayesh is a notorious antisemite, an anti-Israel activist and terrorist supporter. She is the government relations coordinator for American Muslims for Palestine (AMP), a prominent anti-Israel organization known for its controversial links to terror organizations.

    Ayesh has made public her hatred of Jews, her support for terror groups (including Hamas, Islamic Jihad and the PFLP), and her desire for the destruction of Israel.

    Ayesh made public her antisemitic views both before and during her friendship with Bush.

  • Cori Bush’s Connection to Neveen Ayesh

  • Cori Bush has been associated with Neveen Ayesh since at least 2017, when they attended an anti-Israel event together. By 2018, they were documenting their friendship on Facebook.

    The 2020 fundraiser that Ayesh held for Bush took place just months after Ayesh was publicly exposed for her antisemitism and lying to Missouri’s state legislature while testifying against Missouri’s then-proposed anti-BDS legislation.

    While Ayesh testified to the Missouri legislature that she had “befriended” Jews and that “some of them are the closest people to me today,” her Twitter feed told a different story – that, in reality, she had a long-standing disgust for Jews and desired to kill all Israelis.
