Ilhan Omar says she does not recognize Venezuelan interim president (shortened)

Minnesota Democrat Ilhan Omar said she does not recognize Venezuelan opposition leader Juan Guaido as the interim Venezuelan president, defying consensus among Western leaders and her own party.

The Democrat refused to endorse Guaido and even came out against the opposition leader in an interview published on Thursday, where she went on float the far-left conspiracy theory that the U.S. government is sending humanitarian aid to Venezuela “in the guise of eventually invading this country.”

“Well the constitution of Venezuela says that there needs to be an election called within 30 days and we’re waiting for that to happen,” Omar said during an interview with the Intercept.

“What we should be involved in is having diplomatic conversations and bringing people to the table and being a partner in facilitating that. But we are threatening, we are threatening intervention. We’re sending humanitarian aid that is in the guise of, you know, eventually invading this country and the people of the country don’t want us there,” she added.

The host of the podcast then asked whether Omar shares the view of her fellow Democrats and Western governments that Guaido is the current leader of the country.

“Absolutely not,” Omar replied.

I’m sure Juan Guaido is very concerned an islamofascist congresscritter does not recognize him.

Maybe he should send her a signed 8x10 photo of himself.

Wow, she did that? Then she goes on to be in Congress? Aren’t there enough actual Americans for the jobs in government? I bet there are. Why is it immigrants feel the need to come to western countries and get into politics?

Trump has stopped Somali immigration - for now.

But Ilhan Omar has proven one thing, which Obama knew all along. If you want to “fundamentally change” (ie. destroy) America, bring in lots of Somalis like Ilhan Omar.

Yeah, it’s pretty obvious that she did, and was actually married to her biological (same father) brother while cohabiting with the man she had children with and finally marrying him after divorcing her brother on paper a couple years ago.

She used her brother’s citizenship status to get a green card and then citizenship.

I agree. “Almost Obama’s Clone” is a good expansion for AOC.

How about: “Airhead On Crack”?

I sure she doesn’t recognize a lot of things. Civilized behavior, potty training and personal hygiene among them, but these are all her problems.

“”How far is she going to be allowed to go?””

I think we’re going to be saying that every day. Right now, she’s been there one day too many. Sure is amazing how MUCH she thinks she knows to be fact. “The people don’t want us there.” I guess when we’ve sent aid to those dark holes of countries on the continent of Africa, that was because we were getting ready to invade them also. Did we kill some of her kin when we did go in to see that OUR AID was distributed where it was meant to go? Were those some of her relatives with the RPG’s? That place should have been leveled then!

Is it true she was in a refugee camp in Somalia - how did she get out of there? How did she get to the United States AND WHY? She could have gone to any other stinkin’ country there and been right at home. WHY on earth did anyone think we needed her kind here? The MOST we could do would have been to keep her from ever sitting in a seat in Congress!

“”Did she make an oath to defend our Constitution?””

They did but I don’t think it was on our Bible - she and all the other loud mouthed trouble makers!! They lied when they took that oath no matter what book they used - throw the witches OUT!

That may be, but I fear she is the future of the Demonrat party.

Congresswoman Omar does not decide U.S. foreign policy.

As a Minnesotan, I say deport the Somali Democrat representative to Congress [I don’t acknowledge her as a legitimate Minnesotan.]

Who gives a shit who or what she recognizes? She’s been in Washington for about ten minutes and she, Kotex, Tlaib, et al, are already more F’d up than the losers who have been there for 30 years.

Hey Dems, your slips are showing...
