Omar trolls McCarthy with ‘Goodfellas’ reference
The Hill ^ | 01/05/2023 | JULIA MUELLER

Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) on Thursday trolled Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) with a reference to the gangster film “Goodfellas” as the Republican lost out in eight consecutive votes for Speaker of the House.

With the caption “Kevin McCarthy walking into the new Congress with a fresh majority,” Omar shared a screengrab from the film, in which the violent character played by Joe Pesci dresses up and eagerly heads to what he’s led to believe is his initiation into the Mafia.

Pesci’s Tommy DeVito appears to realize the deception when he sets eyes on the empty room he’s been guided to, and is killed with a shot to the back of the head seconds later.

McCarthy has lost to Democratic Rep. Hakeem Jeffries (N.Y.) in each of the eight Speaker contests so far, despite the GOP’s control of the lower chamber with 222 seats.

Imagine if it was the other way around.

Filthy bitch.

Don’t blame Omar for the trash state of the Republican party.

... and McCarthy and McConnell truly believe, as they have done and acted so for years, that they can conducte reasonable negotiations with such human trash that makes up a sizeable portion of the Democrat/Communist Party in Congress.

I think Trump should be speaker. McCarthy would do all the real work. But Trump would wield the gavel and sit behind biden at the state of the union address and hold up fbi funding until they produced their documents on J6 and various other activities.

Nice little veiled threat of assassination. This awful woman needs a visit from the Secret Service.

It’s ridiculous to think Omar has ever seen Goodfellas. Some staffer being cute.

If it was the other way around, it would be described as a death threat and the FIB would be all over it.

Omar is right, the Republican trash needs to be taken out. This Republican CA representative would be worse than Pelosi, wonder why he can’t get the votes... Never mind, go look at his record. He makes Rhino’s look tame.

She is. It’d be great to see her investigated for all the fraud she’s committed over the years. But that ain’t gonna happen, ever.

But that is pretty funny.

Yes, it would have been called a “terroristic threat” from a White Supremacist.

Shut up Omar. You should be in jail for your crimes but, as a Democrat, you’re immune.
