Somali-born Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar decided to lecture Americans on Wednesday about what it means to be “American,” calling an immigration law signed by President John Adams “un-American.” But her comments only prove why some foreigners should never hold office in the United States.

If she is actually a U.S. Citizen, then she lied when she affirmed that she had no allegiance to any foreign country, leader, etc. when she filled out her petition to be naturalized.
African raghead refugees in the U.S. Congress. I knew that was going to happen when the far-left politicians legalized happy smoke. That Ilhan skank needs to be deported and Sandy AOC sent with her back to the caravans.
I hope she on the list to be deported.
Ungrateful sub human needs to be deported like the invaders
She hates America. She wants to change it into something impotent that doesn’t offend her.
Allegedly fraudulently.
She is upset because many of the people were voted for her were illegals.
That skank needs to be sent back to Africa. She’s not getting any reparations so she is wasting her time being here.
Their brother-sister relation was verified from DNA samples obtained from cups they had discarded, to be retrieved by right-of-center investigators. It certainly must have been an uncomfortable honeymoon. Or, maybe not ...
Basic humanity is secondary to basic Americanity
MAGA........ rid America of the Omar trash
