Pelosi Admits She Defended Ilhan Omar’s 9/11 Remarks Without Knowing What Was Said

(INSET: Ilhan Omar) WASHINGTON, DC - APRIL 09: House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, (D-CA) speaks during a ceremonial bill enrollment for legislation which would end U.S. involvement in the war in Yemen on April 9, 2019 in Washington, DC. President Donald Trump has said that he would veto the legislation if …

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) on Tuesday admitted that she does not know the content of Rep. Ilhan Omar’s (D-MN) recent remarks about 9/11 — despite offering a full-throated defense of the freshman congresswoman in the wake of criticism from President Donald Trump.

“I don’t think the congresswoman is anti-Semitic. I wouldn’t even put those in the same category,” Pelosi told interviewer Christiane Amanpour in Ireland. “We have no taint of that [anti-Semitism],” she added. “And just because they want to accuse somebody of that doesn’t mean that we take that bait.”

Pelosi also dismissed criticisms that she hasn’t done enough to defend Omar, conceding, “Until I talk to somebody, I don’t even know what was said.”

“I do know that what the president did was not right,” she added.

Omar is facing blowback for downplaying the September 11, 2001, terror attack, describing it last month private fundraiser for Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) as a day on which “some people did something,” before adding “and that all of us were starting to lose our civil liberties.”

In reaction to the Minnesota Democrat’s remarks, President Trump shared a video to social media of Omar’s remarks and scenes of the World Trade Center engulfed in flakes shortly after it was attacked by radical Islamic terrorists. The video’s caption reads: “WE WILL NEVER FORGET!”

“We have to pass the bill so we can find out what is in it.” This hapless fool needs to be in an institution for demented clowns.

Nancy doesn’t have even a basic understanding of Islam. Or she’s a really bad liar. Has to be the latter.

I have always wondered which is worse, a real enemy or an incompetent fool that will lead everyone to slaughter.

What a dementia addled old bat.

Actually yes, that is correct.

Uh uh. Sorry Nancy.

That’s YOUR little muzzie pet on that leash, and you haven’t yanked it back into it’s proper place.

You own it, Sweetie. You and your sorry ass excuse for a party.

She admits it - it was just a “Let’s hate Trump” statement.

Oh, she understands islam. Every leftist does. Just like every muzzie understands the commies. They know they hate each other, but they have a truce, a Molotov-Ribbentrop pact of sorts. Together they will work to destroy western civilization, then Barbarossa will commence.

The muzzies are feeling confident because they can picture themselves slicing through the soft butter of buttplugs and occasional cortexes and armies of ignorant snowflakes.

But they don’t know history. The commies will birth another Stalin and the muzzies will be massacred before they can allah a snackbar. And after victory the Stalin will turn on his allies at home and devour them. The world will go dark.
