Ocasio-Cortez, Tlaib criticize ‘appalling’ suspension of Omar’s daughter at Columbia
The Hill ^ | April 19, 2024 | Theresa Maher

Democratic Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (N.Y.) and Rashida Tlaib (Mich.) slammed the suspension of Rep. Ilhan Omar’s (D-Minn.) daughter from college after she participated in a pro-Palestinian protest on campus.

“From UM to Vanderbilt to USC to Columbia, students across our country are being retaliated against for using their constitutional rights to protest genocide. It’s appalling,” Tlaib added while sharing Isra Hirsi’s post to social platform X.

Hirsi, Omar’s daughter, announced earlier that day in her post that she had been suspended from the university for “standing in solidarity with Palestinians facing a genocide.”

“How does a student with no disciplinary record suddenly get to a suspension less than 24 hours after a nonviolent protest? What merits asymmetric crackdowns on Palestinian human rights protests,” Ocasio-Cortez said, also sharing Hirsi’s post.

...

Barnard did not comment on specifics Thursday, but pointed to an announcement from its senior staff saying Columbia and Barnard students “set up an unauthorized encampment” on Columbia’s South Lawn.

Columbia made multiple requests that students participating in the protest leave the lawn before “a number of Barnard Senior Staff also went to the lawn to ask students participating in the encampment to leave,” according to the statement.

Senior staff members also advised students they would face sanctions if they did not leave, in addition to written warnings they would receive interim suspension if they did not leave by Wednesday night, according to the school.

Hopefully the terrorist spawn is permanently kicked out and maybe she can eventually join her mom and leave the US and go home.

To hell with Omar, AOC, and Omar’s daughter - or niece. These b*tches think they should be protected from real life no matter their words and actions. Time for a reality check.

unfortunately, Hirisi was born here, so we’re stuck with her; she can’t be “kicked out”.

What’s appalling is AOC and Tlaib’s presence in Congress, and indeed, in America.
Out !!!
Don’t let the ICE door hit you in the ass on your way out.

Get her brother to join the Taliban ambassador’s mission to the UN, then she can marry the brother and gain immunity! Make this kind of idiocy a family tradition.

Why is this Omar idiot not been arrested and deported for incest/illegal inter-family marriage and immigration fraud?

Oh that’s right... the FBI and the DOJ are filled with corrupt Praetorian hacks and open criminals.

I’m sure she was given special privileges that resulted in “no disciplinary record.”

Her face showing disdain as she says “Do you know who my mother is? I’ll have your job taken away and you’ll be canceled when you try to apply for the next one.”

Finally one stood up to her.

I don’t know why they are educating a mudslime girl. The Mudslimes want Sharia law so the girl should be checking out burkas and finding a husband to beat her frequently.

Show them the door.

Joke from Venerable Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen. "I was on a plane last week and as it climbed farther and farther through the clouds a lot of us wanted to rest or contemplate or read.

But two loud children were running back and forth, yelling, pushing at each other, pulling things from the hands of people on the plane. Just making a nuisance of themselves.

Finally, the two flight attendants who had tried to be sweet to them had endured enough. One took them aside and said: "Why don't you two go outside and play?"
