In a now-deleted tweet from late July, Weisman, deputy Washington bureau editor, received unwanted attention for rejecting the notion that Reps. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., and Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., are truly "from the Midwest" in response to comments made by former Sen. Claire McCaskill.
"Saying @RashidaTlaib (D-Detroit) and @IlhanMN (D-Minneapolis) are from the Midwest is like saying Lloyd Doggett (D-Austin) is from Texas or @repjohnlewis (D-Atlanta) is from the Deep South. C’mon,” Weisman wrote.
