House Democrats on Thursday called for increased security in response to the “Send her back” chants that got hurled at Rep. Ilhan Omar during President Trump’s rally in North Carolina.
“It’s crystal clear to me that [Omar’s] life is in imminent danger,” said Democratic Illinois Rep. Bobby Rush in a statement.
“[Trump] has threatened the safety of a member of Congress,” he added. “That takes this to a whole different level.”
Congressman Al Green (D-Texas) announced plans Thursday — while speaking on the House floor — to introduce legislation for more enhanced security measures.
“Leadership has adequate security,” he said. “Members do not have adequate security. I want to thwart the efforts of those who might want to harm a member of this House.”
Green argued that Omar and the other congresswomen who make up “the Squad” — Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Rasihda Tlaib and Ayanna Pressley — all needed increased security following Wednesday night’s rally attack.

The President's tweet listed NO race, NO color, NO Country, NO names & NO amount. So how did 4 Congresswomen of color know that the tweet was about them? The "Squad" condemns the President as Racist but there's no white women in the Squads camp. Does that make the "Squad" racist? pic.twitter.com/Za910izLBI— Diamond and Silk® (@DiamondandSilk) July 18, 2019
Well, if her life is in danger here, the best thing to do for her is to SEND HER BACK!
How I hate democrat hyperbole!
LOL!! Right on, D&S!
Well Bobbie then you and the other Dems should pitch in and provide security out of your own pocket. She ran off her mouth and that’s on her, no taxpayer money should be spent on her.
A bunch of liars.
If anything should happen to her, they are already setting up to blame Trump.
I hope nothing will happen to her and she continues to lead a long, happy life.
Yeah, right.
I think that in a show of goodwill, we should all invite Illhand to be a Walker at the Westminster Kennel Club Show.
American’s lives are in danger from America-hating radicals infesting our country-
Anything to fabricate anti-Trump drama. Yawn.
Personally, I wouldn’t want to be in the same chamber day after day with such a virulent, Islamic, anti-American. Maybe the House GOP should claim IT is in imminent danger.
Jeeze, if a Republican argues against a Democrat who wants to increase welfare spending by 1%, the Democrat will run out of the meeting screaming his life is in danger.
Seth Rich used to work for Democrats too, honey. If you are in danger it’s NOT from Trump.
Yeah - remember when that nazi went to the congressional baseball practice and shot up all those democrats?
Me too. But she should lead it in the beautiful land she loves, not America.
Why? Is she going to go to a House Republican softball game?
Such nonsense
The 4 HAGS OF A CHILDISH "SQUAD" are in NO "danger" whatsoever, from ANY GOPer or their supporters!
