Ilhan Omar rocketed to notoriety a few years back by warning that some American officials have dual loyalties. As it turns out, she was one of them.
Back in 2019, the winsome and patriotic congresswoman had the courage to declare, “I want to talk about the political influence in this country that says that it is OK for people to push for allegiance to a foreign country.” She was talking about American officials who supposedly had loyalty to both the U.S. and Israel, but on Sunday, a video appeared on X showing Omar telling a Somali crowd that they all were “Somalis first, Muslims second.” Nothing about being Americans. And that was the least jarring and offensive part of the speech.
Omar was speaking in Somali, and the translation was made by someone who clearly opposes her; however, in response to the controversy that her statements sparked, she didn’t take issue with the accuracy of the translation, but only with its interpretation. To a certain extent, Omar is right about this. She is being criticized for saying, “We Somalis must have the confidence in ourselves that we call the shots in the U.S. The U.S. government will only do what Somalians in the U.S. tell them to do. They will do what we want and nothing else.”
That sounds terrible, but an Omar defender on X contended that it was innocuous: “Omar says she is representing the interests of Somalis in the United States, which is a legitimate task, as a Congresswoman in any democratic system.” Commenting approvingly on that post, Omar herself added: “It’s not only slanted but completely off, but I wouldn’t expect more from these propagandists.”

IMO-—OMAR IS OPENLY TREASONOUS
She’s the one who married her brother.
A VERY funny Australian has our present administration down perfectly:

What the US should do with Somalia is invade and lay waste to the pirate/s den.
Then instal a puppet government.

Just de-elect the POS.
Although she claims her family fled from Mogadishu for political reasons, I’ve often wondered how many of her family members were either involved, or were related to the terrorists who murdered our Army Rangers in October 1993.

As pointed out by Laura Loomer when no one else would, yet Loomer is ridiculed by many FReepers.
Had she been listened to more, we might not have this Somalian traitor in Congress.
She needs to be out of her position so fast that it is nearly invisible to watch. If she can’t be loyal to the U.S. she is most certainly not fit to serve as a representative for any U.S. citizen. Treason is the reason, I’d say. I will also say that I spotted this one coming a long ways back. Deportation doesn’t seem like enough.
Demonstrating once again that whenever democrats level an accusation of wrongdoing on others it is the democrats themselves who are guilt of the wrongdoing
They project their lawbreaking on others and the corrupt media supports their phony accusations.
As in the Trump-Russiam Hoax...
