Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) said he is undecided on whether he will vote to block Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) from sitting on the House Foreign Affairs Committee, expressing concern about censorship of opposing views.
“The reason I think a lot of Republicans want to kick Ilhan Omar off of the Foreign Affairs Committee is because they don’t like what she has to say,” Gaetz said on Newsmax Monday night.
“I am undecided as of tonight as to whether or not I would vote to remove Ilhan Omar from the Foreign Affairs Committee, because it’s one thing to do dangerous things to the country with intelligence. It’s quite another to say, ‘I don’t like your viewpoint, and thus I want to remove you,’” Gaetz said. “I don’t support that with Direct TV and Newsmax. I didn’t support it when it was directed at my friend and colleague, [Rep.] Marjorie Taylor Greene [R-Ga.].”

How about sending a criminal referral to DOJ for violation of our immigration laws?
Why does the Committee want a lying, defrauding fool on their group.
Why would he be UNDECIDED??
Why would you have an anti-Semite on the foreign Affairs Committee?
That was admiral Rogers at NSA wedding told Trump
That was admiral Mike Rogers of the NSA who warned Trump.
Yikes. She needs to be kicked off because she is impolite, but rather because she is a traitor. If Gaetz cannot tell the difference between opinions and treason...
Yes, because playing nice with these people has worked so well in the past.
"First they came for the Communists And I did not speak out Because I was not a Communist Then they came for the Socialists And I did not speak out Because I was not a Socialist Then they came for the trade unionists And I did not speak out Because I was not a trade unionist Then they came for the Jews And I did not speak out Because I was not a Jew Then they came for me And there was no one left To speak out for me."
No, she committed immigration fraud by marrying her brother to get him a US visa so he could 'immigrate'. That's called emoulments, use of official office for personal gain.
Ehh, she’s still a bro-....er.
Thanks, I always confuse Flynn and Rogers, you’re right.
That would surprise me that she beat a longstanding Jewish woman, among Jewish women voters.
Ya lear something new every day, and I lived in the Twin Cities when she got elected.
A hostile foreigner on the foreign affairs committed…. And the GOP has to struggle with that question.
If Santos has to step down from committees for lying, so should Omar - she’s lied about so many things in her life, not the least of which is how she lied to become a US citizen.
“ The 6 million jews who suffered and parrished are evidence of this nation’s neglect to thwart evil and vile people who spout a damnable vision calling for eradication of an entire nation. It all starts with people like Omar.”
Now the Holocaust is from Americas neglect?. Just shut up
Gaetz is a disappointment in this case, albeit his argument is sound as a stand alone.
Omar is an embed enemy.
Matt seems like he is doing these things for attention. He went to WY to correctly support a primary challenge to Liz Cheney, but he’ll keep Omar on a committee? I also criticized him for keeping the voted going into the night against KM.
Gaetz has been reading Marquis Queensbury again. The Democrats never hesitate, but Gaetz has to bend over in order to get something - but what? Favorable comments in liberal media, party invites, guaranteed lifetime supply of fresh-off-the-boat lobster and crab? What?
The “shut up” doesn’t prevent me saying what is true. God bless you.
