WASHINGTON, D.C.—Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi has sent a letter to Representative Ilhan Omar asking her to clarify her ambiguous and possibly concerning statement "We should kill all the Jews."
It's rather unclear what you meant by 'Kill the Jews', Rep. Omar, and we'd appreciate some clarification," Pelosi wrote in a letter to the congresswoman. "We look forward to hearing from your unique perspective as a woman of color and are excited to hear what it is you meant. We know you don't always know how to use words good like we do, so sometimes that can be tough for an oppressed immigrant like yourself. We deeply appreciate any clarification you can offer."
Other members of "The Squad" immediately jumped to Omar's defense, saying her "freedom of speech" was being trampled upon for even asking for clarification on her "Kill the Jews" statement.
"This is outrageous," said Representative Rashida Tlaib. "We oppressed female Muslims can't even eat, breathe, or call for the killing of an entire people without the whites jumping in to attack us. Until we women of color can safely call for the killing of the Jews without raising an eyebrow, we won't truly have freedom of speech in the United States of America."
Omar did eventually clarify her statement, saying she didn't mean "kill the Jews" but rather "murder the Jews."

The Bee got me again.
You are right it is getting harder every day to realize it is the Bee. I was halfway through before I checked who had put this out. The Bee is great.
Trouble is no longer satire it true
It’s hard to tell if a parody.
“Use words good like we do.” That is a keeper. I didn’t realize it was the Bee cause it sounded so plausible.
ALL four of the squad should be removed from Congress...
Never in my life time, have I been so sick and tired of the US CONGRESS.
Time for a House cleaning...let’s make it happen in 2022.
I read a full paragraph before realizing it was the bee. Country is turning into a real life version of Babylon right before our eyes.
