WATCH: Pompeo Eats Ilhan Omar Alive, Unloads On 'Abhorrent' Dem Like He Got Paid To Do It
There’s a reason President Trump wanted Mike Pompeo to succeed Rex Tillerson as secretary of state.
Pompeo is a smart and dedicated former Congressman and CIA director. He knows a thing or two about putting people in their place.
When it came to talking about freshman Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN), Pompeo wasn’t playing around.
He called her out pretty hard.
From Daily Wire:
Secretary of State Mike Pompeo slammed Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) over her anti-Semitic rhetoric during a Thursday interview with CBN News, calling her actions “deeply troubling” and “abhorrent.”
Pompeo: “To see this from a member of Congress like Congresswoman Omar is — I talked about this being dark. The rise of anti-Semitism in the United States and in Europe and in, frankly, all across the world is something that is deeply troubling, and to see someone — a duly elected congressman — behave in that way, to speak about anti-Semitism in that way, is of great concern.“
Pompeo: “It’s a great concern to me. This administration speaks the truth, and anti-Semitism is unacceptable in any form from anyone, but to see it come from one of America’s leaders is just abhorrent.“
WATCH:
Omar clearly stated that President Trump is not “human.” Now, the Democrat Congresswoman is doubling down and further attacking 45’s humanity.
Her tweet…
For many children, school lunch is the only meal they eat all day. Trump’s budget would cut $1.7 billion from child nutrition and eliminate food assistance for millions—literally taking food out of kids’ mouths.
This is not humane. This budget isn’t humane. He is not humane.

About Trump not being “human”…
WATCH:
Democrat Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (NY) rushed to the defense of the embattled Omar after she tweeted an anti-Semitic remark.
Correction: after she tweeted another anti-Semitic remark.
From Daily Wire:
Ocasio-Cortez’s defense of Omar came after Omar’s latest anti-Semitic incident over the weekend when Omar “displayed her blatant anti-Semitism by tweeting that GOP support for Israel was ‘all about the Benjamins,’ and followed by accusing AIPAC of paying American politicians to support Israel,” The Daily Wire reported.
Ocasio-Cortez, who has a long history of walking lockstep with anti-Semites, waited a couple of days to weigh in on Omar’s anti-Semitic comments, which drew widespread condemnation from both sides of the aisle.
Ocasio-Cortez responded by falsely suggesting that President Donald Trump was the one who has a problem with anti-Semitism.
Ocasio-Cortez tweeted:
Unlike this President, Rep. @IlhanMN demonstrated a capacity to acknowledge pain & apologize, use the opportunity to learn abt history of antisemitism,+grow from it while clarifying her stance.
I’m also inspired by Jewish leadership who brought her in, not push her out, to heal.

AOC is “proud” of Omar:
Lots of people here proclaiming to be “woke” trying to police communities on what they are/aren’t allowed to be upset by.
I’m proud @IlhanMN raised the issue of lobbyist 💰 in politics & equally proud of her sensitivity to communities. Both are possible.

Omar showed no shame after responding to a series of tweets from journalist Glenn Greenwald.
LOOK:
GOP Leader Kevin McCarthy threatens punishment for @IlhanMN and @RashidaTlaib over their criticisms of Israel. It's stunning how much time US political leaders spend defending a foreign nation even if it means attacking free speech rights of Americans https://t.co/It1fGm1b70
— Glenn Greenwald (@ggreenwald) February 10, 2019
Equating @IlhanMN & @RashidaTlaib's criticism of Israel to Steve King's long defense of white supremacy is obscene (McCarthy said it's worse). In the US, we're allowed to criticize our own government: certainly foreign governments. The GOP House Leader's priorities are warped.

Sorry, but you're not going to turn the two first Muslim women to serve in the US Congress into overnight Jew-haters because of their criticisms of Israel. What's actually anti-Semitic is conflating the Government of Israel with Jews, so those of you doing that should stop.

Enter Omar with the anti-Semitic stereotype:

If not immediately obvious, here’s the problem with her tweet:
“It’s all about the Benjamins baby,” Rep. Omar said, a reference to Jewish people and money. A typical antisemitic stereotype.
Omar then retweeted a “hook-nosed” tweet:
@IlhanMN retweeted this comment in response to her "Benjamins" tweet. (She's since deleted it.) pic.twitter.com/kT0VVdOnqS

Reactions:
Congresswoman, do you not realize what you’re saying here or do you not care? https://t.co/fh8a1OWhhz https://t.co/jcCvQuWXdC

Defending Israel from antisemites is “all about the Benjamins”? Really? It’s about money?
Another antisemitic trope for @Ilhan Omar? She’s like an antisemitic pinball machine that spits out old canards as the ball bounces around her brain.
She’s the gift that keeps on giving! https://t.co/w5HWhLqyWd

You are an anti-Semite.
