Dershowitz said the “fringe” of the party has far too much influence, specifically, “‘the Squad,’ the people like [Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth] Warren and [Vermont Sen. Bernie] Sanders,” who walked out on [Israeli Prime Minister] Benjamin Netanyahu’s speech to Congress over the summer. Dershowitz said even “Harris herself… refused to comply with her constitutional duty to preside over the Senate when Netanyahu was speaking.”
