New York Post: Ilhan Omar’s pathetic bid to play victim after she downplayed 9/11

Democrats, Twitter and the national news media offered plenty of outrage Thursday over Rep. Ilhan Omar’s description of 9/11 as a day when “some people did something.” But they directed it entirely at The Post’s front page for exposing and highlighting Omar’s cavalier words.

Omar, echoed by her allies, played the victim, accusing us of “incitement.” Others claimed we took her remark “out of context.”

Here’s the relevant passage of her 20-minute speech to the Council of American-Islamic Relations: “CAIR was founded after 9/11 because they recognized that some people did something and that all of us were starting to lose access to our civil liberties.”

Her comments were horrible and everyone should have condemn them, but the Dems are defending her and her statement.

someone should make a work of art entitled “poo ihlar omar and holy koran”... a simple bottle with a book and photo would “doo.” put it on display at the rotunda. then invite her and aoc to the “art” opening.

use NEA money and lots of it to fund this art. maybe all of it.
