Hamas Unloads on Ilhan Omar — For Comparing Terror Group to the U.S.

/0 Comments/in , /by

Rep. Ilhan Omar is taking flak from all sides: now she’s even offended Hamas.

The terror group on Saturday condemned the Minnesota Democrat’s explosive tweet that compared the US and Israel to Hamas and the Taliban — drawing the ire of both Democrats and Republicans this week.

Omar “equated between the victim and the executioner,” Basem Naim of Hamas’ International Relations Office complained in a statement that took issue with her Monday post on Twitter.

“it is unacceptable to make such an unfair comparison, which contradicts with basic norms of justice and international law,” Naim continued in a missive first reported by the Jerusalem Post. (Read more from “Hamas Unloads on Ilhan Omar — For Comparing Terror Group to the U.S.” HERE)

NY Rep. Wants ‘Liability’ Omar Booted From Congressional Committee

/0 Comments/in , /by

New York Republican Rep. Nicole Malliotakis slammed Rep. Ilhan Omar as “a liability” to the country amid a Democratic civil war over the Minnesota “Squad” member likening the US and Israel to the Taliban and Hamas.

Malliotakis said the Somalia-born congresswoman should be grateful to be living in the United States but instead “badmouths” her adopted country — and as a result should at least be thrown off the House Foreign Affairs Committee.

“She is a liability to that committee,” Malliotakis said in a Friday afternoon appearance on Fox News.

“When I went to Israel in 2019, I spoke to citizens … They for the first time saw the United States was wavering in its support for Israel because of members like Ilhan Omar and [New York Rep.] Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. She is a liability to the committee and she’s a liability to the United States of America.” (Read more from “NY Rep. Wants ‘Liability’ Omar Booted From Congressional Committee” HERE)

Pelosi Condemns Ilhan Omar for Comparing Israel, U.S. to Hamas and the Taliban

By Townhall. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and her leadership team issued a joint statement criticizing comments from Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) that compared the United States and Israel with terrorist groups such as Hamas and the Taliban.

“Legitimate criticism of the policies of both the United States and Israel is protected by the values of free speech and democratic debate. And indeed, such criticism is essential to the strength and health of our democracies,” stated Pelosi along with Majority Leader Steny Hoyer (D-MD), Majority Whip James Clyburn (D-SC), Assistant Speaker Katherine Clark (D-MA), Caucus Chair Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY), and Caucus Vice Chair Pete Aguilar (D-CA). . .

Pelosi’s statement comes hours after GOP Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) called Rep. Omar’s comments “abhorrent” and said the Speaker’s “continued failure to address the issues in her caucus sends a message to the world that Democrats are tolerant of anti-Semitism and sympathizing with terrorists.”

White House Silent as Dem Civil War Breaks Out

By Fox News. The White House has remained silent about a bitter feud between House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, the Democratic leadership and Rep. Ilhan Omar over her recent comments about the U.S. and Israel.

Omar, the two-term progressive representative from Minnesota, has come under fire over her Monday tweet that grouped the U.S. and Israel along with terror groups such as Hamas and the Taliban. She wrote that all had committed “unthinkable atrocities.” The tweet drew sharp condemnations from members of both parties. . .

Following Omar’s explanation, House Democratic leadership said in a statement that “false equivalencies between democracies like the U.S. and Israel and groups that engage in terrorism like Hamas and the Taliban foments prejudice and undermines progress toward a future of peace and security for all.”

“We welcome the clarification by Congresswoman Omar that there is no moral equivalency between the U.S. and Israel and Hamas and the Taliban,” the statement continued. . .

Rep. Rashida Tlaib of Michigan tore into her party’s leadership following the release of the statement Thursday afternoon. Tlaib, who has her own history of controversial remarks, said Democratic leaders “should be ashamed” of their treatment of Omar and other “Congresswomen of color.”

WATCH: ‘Squad’ Member Claims America Has Committed ‘Unspeakable Atrocities’

/1 Comment/in , /by

Far-left “Squad” member Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) equated the United States with Hamas and the Taliban Monday, writing on Twitter that all three had committed “unspeakable atrocities.”

During a House Foreign Affairs Committee hearing, Omar pressed Secretary of State Antony Blinken on his opposition to the International Criminal Court’s (ICC) investigation of alleged war crimes committed by US military personnel in Afghanistan, as well as the Israeli military in their conflicts against Arab militias.

“In both of these cases, if domestic courts can’t or won’t pursue justice and we oppose the ICC, where do we think victims are supposed to go for justice?” Omar asked.

In his response, Blinken referenced the fact that neither the US or Israel are parties to the ICC, saying “we continue to believe that absent a [United Nations] Security Council referral or absent the request by the state itself, that [an ICC investigation is] not appropriate.”

Democrats Are Turning On Biden Over ‘Shameful’ Plans To Resume Construction On ‘Racist’ Border Wall

/0 Comments/in , /by

Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) blasted President Joe Biden for his administration’s reported plans to resume construction of the southern border wall. . .

Omar lashed out at President Biden after a report this week by the Washington Times that said the Department of Homeland Security is considering continuing construction on the border wall to fill in “gaps.”

Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas reportedly told Immigration and Customs Enforcement staffers that due to the recent surge in illegal immigrants, the Biden administration is open to resuming some construction on the border wall.

“The president has communicated quite clearly his decision that the emergency that triggered the devotion of DOD funds to the construction of the border wall is ended,” the DHS secretary allegedly said. “But that leaves room to make decisions as the administration, as part of the administration, in particular areas of the wall that need renovation, particular projects that need to be finished.” (Read more from “Democrats Are Turning On Biden Over ‘Shameful’ Plans To Resume Construction On ‘Racist’ Border Wall” HERE)

Ilhan Omar Tries to Make Car and Knife Attack at the U.S. Capitol About AR-15s

/1 Comment/in , /by

Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) somehow tried to make the latest attack at the U.S. Capitol about AR-15s and she received a lot of ridicule and mockery from social media in exchange.

The heinous attack at the Capitol on Friday was perpetrated by a suspect who was a supporter of the Nation of Islam who used a car to ram into Capitol police officers and then threatened other officers with a knife. He was shot and killed by other officers.

Despite the only gun in the incident being used to kill the assailant, Omar tried to shoehorn a gun control narrative into the lethal attack. . .

Omar’s tweet received backlash from many online, including Alaska Gov. Mike Dunleavy.

Ilhan Omar: The Need to Impeach Trump Is Just Like the Need to ‘Hold a Murderer’ Accountable (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , /by

Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) told MSNBC on Tuesday Congress must impeach and remove President Trump because he is responsible for the riot at the Capitol building that resulted in five deaths and many injuries.

Trump is facing another impeachment vote this week as Democrats in Congress say he incited the riot last Wednesday while they were in the process of certifying the Electoral College results, resulting in President-elect Joe Biden’s victory permanent.

“I know that some have likened the reaction that we are getting, obviously, from the President and some of, you know, Democrats and some Republicans in Congress, to someone saying, you know, if we were to hold a murderer or someone who has committed violence accountable, there will be more. And to me, it is really the — having consequences for actions that act as a deterrent,” Omar said.

Ilhan Omar Compares Trump Rallies to ‘Klan Rallies’

/0 Comments/in , /by

Rep. Ilhan Omar (D., Minn.) likened President Donald Trump’s campaign rallies to Ku Klux Klan rallies in a Monday interview with the Washington Post.

Trump “chose to speak about me at every single rally, didn’t really matter where he was, sometimes multiple times in a day, as he held his Klan rallies across the country,” Omar said to Post opinion writer Jonathan Capehart.

Omar, a member of the far-left group of House Democrats known as “the Squad,” reflected on ousting President Trump and what she perceived as “a four-year assault” on refugees and immigrants like her. She also discussed infighting between moderate and leftist Democrats, sparked by the party’s lackluster House and Senate election results.

Ocasio-Cortez, Ilhan Omar Join Event Organized By Blogger Who Said ‘America Deserved 9/11’

/0 Comments/in , /by

On Tuesday night, hard-left Democratic Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) and Ilhan Omar (D-MN) joined a group of gamers in a live-streamed event that was organized by Hasan Piker, a vlogger who infamously said in 2019 that “America deserved 9/11.”

In August 2019, Piker, a Young Turks commentator, reviewing a clip of Rep. Dan Crenshaw (R-TX) talking to podcast host Joe Rogan, mocked Crenshaw on a Twitch live stream, ranting, “This guy has the understanding of foreign policy of, like, a 12-year-old. What the f***? What the f*** is wrong with this dude? Didn’t he go to war and like literally lose his eye because some mujahideen — a brave f***ing soldier — f***ed his eye hole with their d**?” He added, “Isn’t that how he f***ing lost his dumba** eye, because he got his f***ing eye hole f***ed by a brave soldier?”

Piker added later, “America deserved 9/11, dude. F*** it, I’m saying it.”

After he was slammed for his remarks, Piker tweeted, “Americas foreign policy decisions has lead (sic) to 911. this would’ve been a controversial thing to say in 2001. stop being a f***ing idiot. We supplied arms to and trained bin laden. we destabilized the region long before 911. and now we’re stuck in perpetual war, which dan crenshaw was trying to justify in that clip. it’s exactly this kind of attitude that has sent thousands of young men and women overseas to die.”

Ilhan Omar Funneled $2.7 Million to Her Husband’s Company

/0 Comments/in , /by

Rep. Ilhan Omar (D., Minn.) funneled an additional $1.1 million to her husband’s company, bringing her total payments to the firm to $2.7 million for the election cycle, new filings show.

Omar’s campaign filings, released Thursday, show that she sent $1.1 million more to the E Street Group, a political consulting firm owned by her husband, Tim Mynett. The payments account for nearly 70 percent of the $1.6 million Omar’s campaign has disbursed between July 23 and the end of September. They have helped cover advertisements, consulting, travel expenses, and production costs.

Omar has faced criticism on a number of issues since she entered Congress in 2018. Among other things, her lack of transparency about her past marriages has come under fire, and the Minnesota Campaign Finance Board has ordered her to repay thousands for a campaign finance violation.

She now faces a complaint for potentially running afoul of House ethics rules in relation to an advance she received for her memoir.

The freshman “Squad” member has showered her husband’s company with cash this cycle. The E Street Group is the highest paid vendor from the campaign, and Omar had already sent $1.6 million to the group. (Read more from “Ilhan Omar Funneled $2.7 Million to Her Husband’s Company” HERE)
