WASHINGTON - Death threats are a persistent part of U.S. Rep. Ilhan Omar's life.
"I have to have regular conversations with my kids: 'What happens if I am killed?'" Omar said in an interview. "I have to have regular conversations with them about how to walk down the street, things to look for."
Since the Minneapolis Democrat won her congressional seat in 2018, two men have pleaded guilty to threatening to kill her. Omar's name, along with those of other prominent Democrats and some media figures, was found on a list put together by a man federal prosecutors warned "stockpiled assault weapons, studied violence, and intended to exact retribution on minorities and those he considered traitors."
In the most recent incident of threatening behavior, a man accused of starting fires at two Minneapolis mosques allegedly vandalized Omar's congressional office nearby and sent harassing emails.
When Democrats ran the House during her first four years in office, Omar said she could count on Speaker Nancy Pelosi to make sure she had the help and protection she needed. She said she lacks that confidence with the new Republican speaker, Kevin McCarthy.
"I don't know if I feel confident that if things were to rise to a dangerous level again if I can rely on the current speaker to take my safety and the safety of some of my other former vulnerable colleagues [seriously]," said Omar, the first Somali American and one of the first Muslim women to serve in Congress.
A spokesman for McCarthy responded in an email that the speaker "has made clear his expectation that politics must be separated from security and has empowered the House Sergeant at Arms to work with U.S. Capitol Police to protect all Members of Congress as they deem necessary."

LOL!
Let me think about that, maybe we celebrate.
Exactly.
Death threats are nothing new for those fighting against the likes of Ilhan Omar.
No one would care.
We have a party at the graveyard with plenty of non-bud light beer and recycle that to water the grass on your grave.
I'd suggest a steak dinner with all the trimmings.
Uh, who cares?
She’s just a big tease to the Right.
That’s not a question you want to ask if you want an honest answer.
Kevin McCarthy is personally responsible for the protection and safety of Ilhan Omar?
What happens if you are Killed?” -0mar
You would be dead Ilhan same as anyone else.

The US becomes a slightly safer and better place. Like asking what would the world be like without Idi Amin.
That's Idi Amin Dada...Two D's, Two A's and One Gun!
Celebration.
It would prove there is a God in Heaven.
Hmmm...
Tough question...
Personally, I’d shrug my shoulders and make use of the “memory hole”...
Your husbro will notice.
The collective IQ of the country goes up 3 points, the average amount of corruption goes down 3 points, and terrorists all over the world will mourn the loss of their queen. And Satan will reward his good and faithful servant.
Yep. Had an Army buddy from ND that advocated violence.....HATED the slimy little Tom Daschle. Said thinks like killing him because they had a Rep. Governor and such. When Daschle was ousted by a Republican and bounced by Obama, he had a mental breakdown. I have another friend in DC that knows his wife from Kansas (where I was based and lived a while). She said he had a very hard time being rejected by voters AND the Kenyan Marxist Muslim. He is making millions though lobbying but has no Power.
Conclusion: Watching them suffer from defeat is more gratifying than violence.....so far. Lets keep it that way if we can.
