Republican Rep. Lauren Boebert of Colorado had a tense phone call with Rep. Ilhan Omar on Monday that centered around Boebert's recent controversial remarks about the Minnesota Democrat.
The phone call ended with Omar hanging up after both congresswomen demanded each other issue public apologies for past remarks, Boebert said in an Instagram video Monday.
Boebert said she organized the call with Omar because she "wanted to let her know directly that I had reflected on my previous remarks."
"Now as a strong, Christian woman who values faith deeply, I never want anything I say to offend someone's religion. So I told her that. Even after I put out a public statement to that effect, she said that she still wanted a public apology because what I had done wasn't good enough. So I reiterated to her what I had just said," Boebert continued.
"She kept asking for a public apology so I told Ilhan Omar that she should make a public apology to the American people for her anti-American, anti-Semitic, anti-police rhetoric. She continued to press and I continued to press back. And then, Representative Omar hung up on me."
Omar issued a statement blaming Boebert for how the call unfolded and confirming that she ended the conversation.
"Today I graciously accepted a call from Rep. Lauren Boebert in the hope of receiving a direct apology for falsely claiming she met me in an elevator, suggesting I was a terrorist, and for a history of anti-Muslim hate," Omar said in a statement.
"Instead of apologizing for her Islamophobic comments and fabricated lies, Rep. Boebert refused to publicly acknowledge her hurtful and dangerous comments. She instead doubled down on her rhetoric and I decided to end the unproductive call."

Apologizing and then calling that Muslim piece of schiff does not make one a strong Christian. Islam is a death cult. It's followers deserve zero respect. .
Be professional, be polite...but have a plan to kill everyone you meet.
"Omar could care less about Islam she just uses it"
Godless heathen dog and daughter of Belial.
The Squat need better advisors.
Excellent move on Boebert’s part. Now she can say” I tried to apologize, but the crazy bitch hung up on me!”
And the crazy bitch is complaining more loudly, proving Boebert’s point.
Just goes to show that you can’t reason with a terrorist.
Never apologize to muslim terrorist sympathizer scum.
Don’t try to apologize. If you offer them your hand, they try to take the whole arm. Omar deserves no apology for anything. She is a hate-filled angry woman always looking for reasons to be offended.
“”Now as a strong, Christian woman who values faith deeply, I never want anything I say to offend someone’s religion. “
Ignorant woman. “Jesus is Lord” is offensive to hundreds of millions of people.
Love that flick!
“...I never want anything I say to offend someone’s religion.”
The filth called islam(SPIT!) is not a religion, in any sense of the word.
Omar represents the best they have in the muslim religion.
That looks like dude.
Never apologize to a filthy democrat! Instead, double down.
Amen and AMEN! My New Testament Christian beliefs and missionary implementation DO offend Mohammedans, and they say so. And whenever, wherever it is possible, these Devil-impoverished religious opponents will KILL you for telling about having a personal relationship with Jesus, the Incarnated God of Creation, of Whom I am created a human image.
If present, Jesus would call them liars and children of the father of all falsehoods, the Devil. And, knowing in their hearts that is true, they would execute Him and you, if possible, to remove a vocal opposition to their maladjusted behaviors that cannot benefit their constituents, like those of Ilhan Omar.
Her declared religious beliefs, though permitted by constitutional oversight to be expressed, they are anti-Constitutional and unlawful to be carried out in her/their actions. She should be in jail for her bigamy, for her support of Muslim terrorists, and for not disclosing those factors to the people of her district.
No Mohammedan should ever be seated as a representative of the citizens of a district, or even placed on the slate of primary-selected candidates. And no one should apologize for saying so, particularly a Congressional Representative who promises to uphold the Constitution.
Period.
Make nice and send Omar a ham for Christmas.
Oh, FABRICATED lies! Those are the worst kind...
Why even bother with a fanatic.
