‘The Truths I Tell Are An Inconvenience’: Rep. Ilhan Omar Unapologetic, Unfazed In Her Quest For 2nd Term
See BS local ^ | 7/23/20 | Esme Murphy

MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) - Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar is one of the highest-profile members of Congress. The Democrat swept to victory in the Fifth District two years ago, but now faces a well-funded challenger in next month’s primary.

Omar’s first term has been marked by unprecedented attacks.

At a July 2019 North Carolina rally, President Donald Trump blasted her for her stands on Israel, saying, “Omar has a history of launching vicious anti-Semitic screeds.” As soon as Trump said it, the chant of “send her back” erupted from the crowd.

Just days after, she received a tumultuous warm welcome at Twin Cities International Airport, to chants of “Welcome home, Ilhan.”

Her tweets about Israel, some of which she apologized for, and some of her pro-Palestinian positions, are helping fuel the fundraising against her.

“I think the truths I tell are an inconvenience,” Omar said.

She is unapologetic about her progressive agenda, which includes supporting Medicare for All, tuition-free college, and locally defunding the Minneapolis Police Department.

“We have a police department that has lost the trust of the public, that has lost the trust of other institutions they’re supposed to work with,” she said.

She doesnt have to. It’s been proven a dozen times over and the evidence would be overwhelming in court.

Among her other transgressions.

If she were one of us or an R she would be in prison already.

But even Rs in congress get a pass sometimes. The whole power structure needs to be brought down

The unfortunate, inconvenient truth about Omar is this: She was duly elected to congress. She received over 50% of the vote in her district meaning that by our system, she is a legitimate member of the House of Representatives. And guess what, she's going to win again in November and most likely will be in office for years to come.

Don't get me wrong, I find this woman to be loathsome as well as being an enemy of this country but my ire and contempt is directed at the everyday rank and file voter who put her into office. They must support the things she advocates for or at least are comfortable with her spouting an anti American platform.

The problem here isn't the politician. The real problem is the people who put the politician in power.

“We have a police department Congress that has lost the trust of the public, that has lost the trust of other institutions they’re supposed to work with,” she said.

Not to mention she's a rabid anti-Semite.

“The problem here isn’t the politician. The real problem is the people who put the politician in power.”

The real problem is George Bush and Barack Obama, who brought these American hating Somalis in our country.

Respectfully sir, I disagree. Bush/Obama may have brought them here (horrible move BTW), but the people in that district voted her in office. The House member before her was the race baiting Keith Ellison. That district is 63% white and has consistently voted liberal Dem for the last half century so it preceded the arrival of the Somalians.

There is something wrong with the majority of people in her district. She merely exploited it.
