WATCH: Ilhan Omar Screams — America 'Is Not Going To Be The Country Of White People'
Different day, same Ilhan Omar.
The Minnesota Congresswoman who reportedly married her brother has once again made headlines by saying something obtuse.
Omar is learning to pander with the best of them.
At the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) conference, Ilhan said “some people did something” on 9/11.
On Wednesday, while speaking at an event organized by Black Lives Matter, Omar screeched about America not being the country of “white people.”
Sounds a little racist, no?
From The Blaze:
The freshman congresswoman said that Trump and his political allies are to blame for a surge in anti-Semitism and Islamophobia in the U.S.
Fellow freshman lawmaker Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.) was also in attendance at the event, which was held at the Capitol and called “Black Women in Defense of Ilhan Omar.”
She noted, “This is not going to be the country of the xenophobics. This is not going to be the country of white people. This is not going to be the country of the few. This is going to be the country of the many.“
WATCH:
Her tweet about the Notre Dame Cathedral fire in Paris has some claiming she just offended Christians worldwide.
LOOK:
Art and architecture have a unique ability to help us connect across our differences and bring people together in important ways. Thinking of the people of Paris and praying for every first responder trying to save this wonder.

“Art and architecture”? It’s a church.

Well, the “architecture” that the art was housed in is a cathedral. While Biblically Christ is wherever His people are, Notre Dame is a significant and storied icon of faith.

The “art and architecture” has a name. It’s called Notre Dame Cathedral. It is a place of worship for Catholics.

This is disrespectful toward Catholics specifically and Christians in general. Notre Dame represents a bit more than “art and architecture” — lest anyone think Omar merely enjoys dissing Jews.

Did the Louvre burn, or was it a storage facility for overflow art? Or was it a Catholic cathedral? Can’t tell from this word salad.

Omar doesn’t seem to understand that not only is she infuriating conservatives, but her own party isn’t exactly thrilled with her, either.
And yet, that didn’t stop Omar from going after liberal god, Barack Obama.
Ilhan says Barack “got away with murder” because of his “pretty face.”
Wild, huh?
From New York Post:
Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar ripped former President Barack Obama in an interview published Friday, belittling his “pretty face” and saying his agenda of hope and change was an illusion.
She cited the “caging of kids” at the Mexican border and the “droning of countries around the world” on Obama’s watch — and argued that he wasn’t much different from President Trump
Omar: “We can’t be only upset with Trump.“
Omar: “His policies are bad, but many of the people who came before him also had really bad policies. They just were more polished than he was.“
Omar: “And that’s not what we should be looking for anymore. We don’t want anybody to get away with murder because they are polished. We want to recognize the actual policies that are behind the pretty face and the smile.“
