During the recent spat between President Trump and "The Squad" — Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York, Ilhan Omar of Minnesota, Rashida Tlaib of Michigan, and Ayanna Pressley of Massachusetts — Trump asked when the four women would atone for their anti-American and anti-Semitic behavior. Early Monday morning, Trump tweeted:
When will the Radical Left Congresswomen apologize to our Country, the people of Israel and even to the Office of the President, for the foul language they have used, and the terrible things they have said. So many people are angry at them & their horrible & disgusting actions!
For Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, this involves making amends for disparaging the officers of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) — the men and women who risk their lives to keep both Americans and immigrants safe — as well as asking forgiveness for disrespecting the six million Jews murdered in the Holocaust.
"The U.S. is running concentration camps on our southern border and that is exactly what they are. That is exactly what they are. They are concentration camps," Ocasio-Cortez said in an Instagram video. "The fact that concentration camps are now an institutionalized practice in the Home of the Free is extraordinarily disturbing, and we need to do something about it."
Acting Immigration and Customs Enforcement director Mark Morgan was insulted by the comment. "It's completely inappropriate, it's reckless, it's irresponsible, it's misinformed, and it's flat-out wrong," Morgan said in an interview. Josh Holmes, former chief of staff for Mitch McConnell, called Ocasio-Cortez's comments "an alarming and dangerous equivalence that suggests a breathtaking lack of appreciation for the unparalleled evil of the Holocaust."

1. Ilhan Omar must also apologize. In January, Omar tweeted that Israel had "hypnotized the world" and later stated that American support for Israel was "all about the Benjamins" and involved "allegiance" to a foreign country.
2. At a CAIR event in the spring, Omar callously described the 9/11 terrorist attacks as "some people did something," which sparked a large pro-Israel protest. According to an article in the National Review, CAIR was listed by the Department of Justice as an unindicted co-conspirator in funneling millions of dollars to Hamas, although to this day, CAIR vehemently denies this.
3. Rashida Tlaib, too, must make amends for her callous comments. Last June, she tweeted, "ICE is terrorizing our communities with zero accountability. ICE is a recent invention that makes our neighborhoods less safe, vindictively and cruelly tearing families apart. I'm proud to stand with the growing movement to #AbolishICE!"
She also said: "we're gonna go in there and we're gonna impeach the m‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑!'"
4. Ayanna Pressley, who has some insensitive things of her own to account for. According to the Washington Examiner:
Speaking at the Netroots Nation convention in Philadelphia on Saturday, Massachusetts Rep. Ayanna Pressley claimed black and brown people who work for the U.S. Customs and Border Protection are "a cog" in the machine that perpetuates oppression and incarceration of people that "look just like them."
“The Squad”??
More like “The Squawk”!!
“squeak, squander and squash”
The Jihad Squad will never apologize.
The Republican party is as divisive and hateful towards President Trump as the Scumbag Squad is.
The “Squad” should be taken into custody by Federal Marshals and remanded to an undisclosed location for some enhanced interrogation.
The Four Stooges fronting for the world wide Communist movement.
Why the Hell would I want an apology from these ones?
They mean what they say.
I want something from them, but I assure you that an apology is not it.
Four serpents.
As this plays out, Trump will once again be proven correct in focusing attention on these radicals who will represent ALL Democrats in 2020. Case studies will cite this tweet as the starting point of the radicalization of the old Dem party and the starting point of the radical new Democrat Socialist party.
Actually I think they should be called The Mean Girls
I’ve heard radio hosts also dubbing them the jihad squad. I really hope this sticks.
The dems are fully behind the jihad squad. Trump is a friggin genius.
I don’t want their fake apology. I do, however, want to see them using the exit door. Bye. Adios. Good riddance to bad rubbish. Get the heck outta my country.
