Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., held a town hall Tuesday evening in her home district amid recent shootings involving federal immigration agents and local agitators in Minneapolis.

The event started out mostly uneventful until a man attacked the congresswoman with some sort of chemical spray that had a foul odor, according to those close by. Those nearby Omar wanted her to leave, but Omar refused and continued on.

"Please don't let them have the show," Omar could be heard saying after she was hit with the foul-smelling spray. "We will continue! These f----ing a--holes are not going to get away with this."

"Here is the reality that people like this ugly man don't understand," Omar said as she returned to the microphone. "We are Minnesota strong, and we will stay resilient in the face of whatever they might throw at us."

Let me guess, you still believe we were attacked on 9/11 because they hate us for our freedom.

There were two attackers. They were wearing MAGA hats, threw a noose around her neck, and yelled "This is MAGA country!"

Dunning-Kruger "Didn't Earn It" (DEI) hires like Ilhan Omar think others are as dumb as she is and will buy this.

Sadly, she's not completely wrong.

And the Propaganda Media is going to run with it, breaking the law regarding illegal political contributions-in-kind.

Do you have a link to one of those slow motion videos? I’m having trouble finding one.

Exactly what I thought when I saw it. Her handler sounded like she was repeating rehearsed lines. Do we have the name of the guy and was he arrested? Obviously I didn’t read the article...

“”she gets to use some naughty language, to help build her street cred.””

She doesn’t need a reason - it’s her normal way of speaking.
