Ilhan Unbound

Posted on March 3, 2019 by John Hinderaker in Ilhan Omar Ilhan Unbound

Eliot Engel, Chairman of the House Foreign Relations Committee, slammed Ilhan Omar for anti-Semitism on Friday. He didn’t mince words:

House Foreign Affairs Committee chairman Eliot Engel (D-NY) blasted Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) on Friday for suggesting that pro-Israel politicians hold “allegiance to a foreign country” and demanded the freshman congresswoman apologize for her “vile anti-Semitic slur.”

“I welcome debate in Congress based on the merits of policy, but it’s unacceptable and deeply offensive to call into question the loyalty of fellow American citizens because of their political views, including support for the U.S.-Israel relationship,” Engel said in a statement released Friday evening.

“Her comments were outrageous and deeply hurtful, and I ask that she retract them, apologize, and commit to making her case on policy issues without resorting to attacks that have no place in the Foreign Affairs Committee or the House of Representatives,” the New York Democrat continued.

I apologize, but for whatever reason I can't copy the twitter cat fight. The bottom line, is that perpetual victim, Ilhan Omar, ain't apologizing to anyone. Period. She is not supporting, or pledging allegience to Israel, and nobody can make her.

This just keeps getting better.

I really hope Trump is using the NSA to wiretap and intercept communication between Omar and her radical buddies.

She is, first and foremost, a Jew hating muzzie. Everything she does and says reflects that. I don’t expect her to change. We should keep her front and center as she is a great campaign issue for the GOP.

I suspect they’ll eventually get around to kicking her off committees and forcing her to resign from congress, maybe expelling her, but in the meantime, this is disastrous for the Democrats as they count Islamic terrorist sympathizers and open socialists among their ranks.

I wonder... We’ve already had Wasserman-Schultz hiring Pakistani spies as IT techs for House members. What will Omar do?

She’s too stupid to hide it. She sees a Jew behind every rock. I’m hoping that the Jewish voters will turn on her, and the Socialists/Dems.

In the meantime, she’s off on a boondoggle to Africa. We should pull her passport.

” I’m hoping that the Jewish voters will turn on her, and the Socialists/Dems.’m hoping that the Jewish voters will turn on her, and the Socialists/Dems. “

Dont know for certain, but i suspect her district is mostly made up of Minn. Somali’s. Doubt there are any Jews within 10 miles of it.

Engel is the dimmest of bulbs.

Isn’t this precisely WHY one CAN call into question a persons loyalty?

I’m sure you are right: I’m betting most of her constituents are black/muslim. However, that won’t mean much if powerful people want her gone. She does need to be removed from the Committee for Foreign Affairs. She has no business there, where she can cause trouble. IMHO.

They can kick her off committees (but kicking a muslim black woman off of a committee might be problematic for the dems), I don’t see how they can force her to resign, and as for expelling her, that really can’t be done. Oh, it can be with two-thirds vote of the House, but nothing could stop her from running for her old seat and no doubt winning it easily. She is reflecting the views of her constituents. And don’t forget she promised to “impeach that m-——f——r.”

I question ALL muslims allegiance to the Constitution.

They are religiously obligated to replace it with sharia.

Congress easily approves money for Israel but spending money to protect our border is like pulling teeth with them. They don’t have dual loyalty they have a single loyalty to whatever special interest groups gives them money. It’s not because they are Jewish, almost all of them are like that no matter what race , religion, gender they are.

That was the representative of Hamas from MI.
This is the representative of Al-Shabab from MN.
She is the brother f*cker.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

She’s from the Cedar/Riverside area of Minneapolistan. MiniMogadishu. I drive through that area every day on the way to the hospital across the river. It’s not part of America.

Her district is mixed jewish and somali. She needed the jewish vote and actively pirsued it. Of course they bought her bullsh*t. Now they have buyers remorse but too late
