Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) has been caught in yet another cringeworthy scandal.

This one involves traveling with a radical group that supports socialism.

Here are the details…

From Fox News:

Rep. Ilhan Omar has attended a travel delegation to a South American country sponsored by a radical anti-American and anti-Israel organization that supports countries opposed to the U.S. and calls for the return of Guantanamo Naval Base to Cuba.

The Minnesota Democrat was accused of anti-Semitism after asserting that the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, a bipartisan group, was buying lawmakers.

She also grabbed headlines after first accusing the U.S. government of leading a coup against Venezuelan socialist tyrant Nicolas Maduro and then attempting to grill Elliott Abrams, the Trump administration’s new special envoy for Venezuela.

Now it was revealed that she once traveled to Honduras with an organization called Witness for Peace, a group formed during the Reagan administration that opposed America’s actions in South America aimed at stopping the spread of communism.

Omar tweeted the following four messages:

After traveling to Honduras as part of the Witness for Peace delegation, I’ve returned home with a heavy heart and deep concern for the electoral process and human rights crisis the people of Honduras are enduring.

Our delegation heard testimony of the ongoing intimidation through use of security forces including US-funded Honduran National Police and the TIGRES unit, incidents of fraud and violence at polling places, and a total lack of transparency about the electoral process.

This morning we awoke to images of US munitions that have been used against protestors overnight, and partners around Honduras are sending videos of the massive militarization, including military road blocks around the country.

Check out the fiery exchange Omar had with Elliot Abrams, the Trump administration’s special envoy to Venezuela, who was fed up with the Congresswoman’s “ridiculous” questions…

From Fox News:

The Trump administration’s new special envoy for Venezuela, Elliott Abrams, clashed Wednesday with freshman Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., during a House hearing on the Caracas crisis after the congresswoman tried to turn focus to Abrams’ history in Latin America while asking him point-blank whether he’d support “genocide” if it served American interests.

Abrams fired back, calling the line of questioning “ridiculous” and refusing to respond to the personal “attack.”

WATCH:

Omar showed no shame after responding to a series of tweets from journalist Glenn Greenwald.

LOOK:

Enter Omar with the obvious stereotype:
