Senate majority leader Chuck Schumer on Thursday endorsed a longtime liberal activist who has embraced the anti-Israel wing of the Democratic Party to lead the Democratic National Committee. In his endorsement, Schumer described Ben Wikler, currently the chairman of the Wisconsin Democratic Party, as a “tenacious organizer,” a “proven fundraiser,” and the best candidate to help the party “learn from the results” of the November election. Wikler’s support for anti-Israel activists would seem to put him at odds with Schumer, who bills himself as a staunch ally of Israel.
