Everyone knows that Sen. Charles Schumer went off the rails by threatening two sitting Supreme Court Justices because he believes they will vote against an upcoming abortion-rights case. But little attention has been given to the hysterical reaction of two members of “The Squad”: Rep. Ayanna Pressley and Rep. Rashida Tlaib. Pressley said that “reproductive justice is racial justice.” This is the kind of statement we would expect from the Klan. We would not expect this from a black woman. Blacks, who are 13% of the population, account for 36% of all abortions. Pressley needs to explain why this is...

Look at what Jihad-Rep Il-han Omar said when news broke of President Trump’s warnings of the deaths of hundreds of thousands of Americans from Corona virus. Trump says next two weeks in the U.S. will be “very painful” and that he wants “every American to be prepared for the days that lie ahead.” Ilhan Omar: Subhanallah! = “May Allah be praised!” Pamela Geller ✔ @PamelaGeller Ilhan Omar is an evil bitch. https://twitter.com/yasmohammedxx/status/1245458853447122947 … Yasmine Mohammed ياسمين محمد 🦋 @YasMohammedxx Replying to @IlhanMN For those of you unaware, that phrase is said when you’re happy.

On Wednesday, Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) quoted a violent passage from the Quran calling for false accusers to receive a flogging of eighty lashes. She was responding to a Quran quote condemning adultery with another quote condemning those who falsely accuse "chaste" women of adultery. Her response was particularly rich given her recent marital history. Omar tweeted "Subhanallah," a celebratory phrase that roughly translates to "May Allah be exalted!" A Twitter user rained on her parade, tweeting a Quran quote condemning adultery. "'Nor come nigh to fornication/adultery: for it is a shameful (deed) and an evil, opening the road (to...

Rep. Ilhan Omar is not a fan of the coronavirus press conferences at the White House. The freshman rep from Minnesota became the latest Democrat to criticize the briefing as rambling and self-promotional. MSNBC and CNN did not run the press conference in its entirety. Erik Wemple, the Washington Post's media critic, penned a column titled, “CNN, MSNBC refused to carry full Trump coronavirus briefing. Yay!” Omar took to Twitter on Wednesday to call the press conference “disturbing to watch.”

On the stark difference between what experts are saying about the coronavirus and what President Trump is saying, Congresswoman Ilhan Omar says, “That kind of contrast is quite alarming and sort of shows you how much this president isn’t taking the time to hear what the experts are telling him and isn’t being honest with the public.”

Amazon faced questions Friday from Capitol Hill over how the online retail giant is protecting workers at its warehouses during the ongoing deadly global coronavirus pandemic. Sen. Bernard Sanders, Vermont independent, and Rep. Ilhan Omar, Minnesota Democrat, led a dozen other lawmakers in a letter seeking answers from Amazon chief executive Jeff Bezos. In addition to inquiring in detail about steps Amazon has taken to protect its employees during the pandemic, they asked him to ramp up those efforts to ensure they remain safe. **SNIP** “In a recent message to your employees, you recognize the critical work they are doing....

U.S. Rep. Ilhan Omar on Tuesday night suggested what she admitted may be a “radical idea” to help fight the coronavirus outbreak. “All private hospitals should be made public for the duration of the virus,” the Minnesota Democrat wrote on Twitter. She said a government takeover could help address “some of the pressures our healthcare system is facing.”

Rashida Tlaib just sunk the Democrats with a stunning proposal to deal with the coronavirus including giving direct cash to illegal immigrants. Her plan says: “In response to the Coronavirus crisis, the Automatic BOOST to Communities Act would immediately provide a U.S. Debit Card pre-loaded with $2000 to every person in America. Each card would be recharged with $1,000 monthly until one year after the end of the Coronavirus crisis. Guaranteeing Universality “Every person” includes: Dependents, so a couple with two children would receive 4 x $2000 = $8000 in total. Non-citizens, including undocumented people, permanent residents, and temporary visitors...

Iran’s regime has launched a massive new campaign claiming its failure to handle the coronavirus crisis is due to sanctions imposed by the United States. There’s not an iota of truth to this claim, and it’s by no means a widely held view. Still, several U.S. lawmakers are backing up similar talking points by the regime’s Foreign Minister Javad Zarif. Zarif on Tuesday claimed “unlawful US sanctions” are draining Iran's economic resources, impairing his regime’s ability to fight COVID-19.The next day Sen. Bernie Sanders tweeted: “As a caring nation, we must lift any sanctions hurting Iran’s ability to address this crisis,...

MINNEAPOLIS — Rep. Ilhan Omar’s marriage appears to be headed for the rocks, a longtime friend of the couple told The Post. The congresswoman’s husband, Ahmed Hirsi, the source said, is poised to file for divorce after the revelation in a bombshell court filing that she allegedly had an affair with DC political consultant Tim Mynett. The Minnesota congresswoman and her husband allegedly separated in March, and Omar asked Hirsi to divorce her around that time because she didn’t want to file the papers — but Hirsi refused, telling her if she wanted a divorce she should do it herself,...

Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) is back in the spotlight and no—it’s not because she spewed anti-Semitic tropes again. Omar has done everything under the sun to become one of the Hill’s most controversial lawmakers. From her rendition of the Protocols of the Elders Of Zion to seemingly siding with the Somali militiamen who were shooting at American troops during the 1993 raid that was immortalized in the book and film Black Hawk Down, Omar has always taken the wrong position, even arguably the anti-American position. But her latest scandal revolves around her marriage history and the allegation that she committed immigration...

MINNEAPOLIS, Minn. — Dozens of official documents suggest that Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., was living with her current husband, Ahmed Abdisalan Hirsi, throughout her entire legal marriage to Ahmed Nur Said Elmi, contradicting the story she tells to explain her multiple marriages. Omar tells her marital history in the following way: <><> 2002: Omar married Hirsi in a Muslim faith ceremony, but never legally married. <><> 2008: Omar and Hirsi “decided to end our relationship in our faith tradition. ” <><> Early 2009: Omar legally married Elmi. <><> 2011: Omar and Elmi religiously divorced. <><> 2011: Omar and Hirsi reconciled....

Rep. Ilhan Omar’s marriage to a political consultant has drawn renewed focus on her campaign’s payments to her now-husband and his firm, which are at the center of a pending complaint with the Federal Election Commission. Omar (D-Minn.) on Wednesday announced on Instagram that she had married Timothy Mynett, and the couple filed their marriage license in Washington that same day. Following Omar’s marriage announcement, conservative critics raised concerns about payments by her campaign to E Street Group, which is run by Mynett. “Taxpayers funded her campaign. Now they’re funding her marriage. How is this not an FEC violation?” conservative...

The Minnesota Democrat announced on Instagram Wednesday night that she’d remarried, apparently to the political consultant she allegedly had an affair with. “From partners in politics to life partners, so blessed,” Omar captioned a black and white shot of her and her new husband canoodling with rings on their fingers.

On Wednesday, Rep. Ilhan Omar announced on her Instagram account she is married. The photo attached to the post shows her and who appears to be political consultant Tim Mynett, who she has been romantically linked to.

by Sheri Urban According to a new bombshell report, Omar’s campaign has been paying $250,000 to her ex, Ahmed Hirsi, for his silence on her affair with D.C. political consultant Tim Mynett. Federal Election Commissions records also show that Omar’s campaign has paid Tim Mynett’s fundraising company $500,000 in the last year alone. This is NOT the kind of scrutiny Omar wants, since the FBI announced it was investigating criminal allegations against her.

Minnesota Democratic Rep. Ilhan Omar unexpectedly praised President Trump's handling of the coronavirus pandemic on Wednesday night, saying it was "incredible and the right response in this critical time." Omar, normally a staunch critic of the White House who herself has repeatedly drawn the president's ire, went on to quote Rep. Ayanna Pressley, D-Mass., as saying "unprecedented times require unprecedented leadership" -- and, Omar added, "we are seeing that in our country right now." "Finally, we should never let politics get in the way of good policy," Omar concluded. "This is a great start and hope others will be part...

Rep. Ilhan Omar drew a torrent of negative responses on social media Thursday after she reacted to a pro-family Twitter post by Ivanka Trump. The president’s daughter’s post called for families to make the best of their time at home together during the coronavirus outbreak, suggesting they have a “living room camp out” along with sandwiches and other treats. “A fun activity that also brings family together for a meal!” the 38-year-old Trump wrote. The post included a past photo of Trump with two of her and husband Jared Kushner’s three children.

A woman close to Omar posted a YouTube video packed with degrading insults about wheelchair-bound Abdihakim Osman and pressed members of her Somali-American clan to go after him. . . . She went on to say Osman has a ‘big bell, small udder, pillar-like head’ and mocked his disability which was caused by contracting polio as a child in Somalia. ‘You Majeerteen men, we despise you,’ she added, talking to her clan members. ‘You are letting this ox seated on the ground harass us. ‘Why don’t you stop this crippled dog?’
