Controversial freshman congresswoman Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., responded to a tweet from President Trump Wednesday by accusing him of “lying about the border” and calling the often debated border wall a “monument to racism.”

“This is a fake emergency! Donald Trump is lying about the border in order to build his monument to racism,” Omar tweeted Wednesday.

Omar was responding to a tweet by Trump calling on Congress to “eliminate the loopholes” and saying if they don’t act, he would close “large sections” of the border.

“Congress must get together and immediately eliminate the loopholes at the Border! If no action, Border, or large sections of Border, will close. This is a National Emergency!,” the president tweeted.

The president has threatened to close the border this week, prompting outrage from Democrats, and called on Mexico to help prevent illegal immigration by using its own “strong” immigration laws. He also threatened to shut down aid to three Central American countries.

Omar, in just her fourth month in Congress has become a lightning rod for controversy.

Given Trump’s inaction and bluff on closing the border, it sure seems that Trump agrees with this monster.

...... Does anybody ever ask any of these pinheads .... Firstly .... Please explain why you do not believe there is a crisis at the border ..... Then Secondly.... Have them explain what they actually think an Emergency at the border would look like.

.... I have done this numerous times and it is fun to stand back and watch them stumble trying to come up with a logical cogent response. They have been backed into a corner where all of the Liberal Socialist talking points can't help them. Their minds are never challenged because they all socialize and dwell with people of like mind and shun any thought that may challenge them. They like being comfortable only among themselves.

.... Be careful that we don't do the same. Like the bible says in the Book of Peter .... Always be prepared to give an answer ...

It’s difficult to maintain a charitable perception toward the viewpoint of the enemies of America, especially when they are U.S. congresswomen.

This is the kind of crap we get for electing an ignorant, bigoted Mooslum slut to Congress. Pretty sure she believes in “honor killings.” LOL

Omar is just another foot soldier of Mad Moe's Mafia. Their current plan of victory through migration and expanding population is actually working . A wall literally puts an end to that plan and is therefore the most evil thing that can be done in their twisted minds. A wall put up by the most powerful country in the world only makes it central to their goal to have it destroyed.
