I'm sure all the usual suspects will be in here to condemn Schumer, Pelosi, and this fukkface for creating unnecessary division in the Democratic Party. I :salute: you for your consistency.


And the dumbest part they don't get is that Palestinians ARE Semitic people. But the idiots think that only they can use the phrase "anti-semite" while shytting on all the Semites they themselves hate.

In fukking 3 months Ilhan Omar has done more to finally break open the fukking facade of our government than any Democratic politician has done in 50 fukking years. She'll have them rationalizing their support for Ibn Saud by June.

I dunno, between Omar on Israel, AOC on economics, and Bernie on the establishment cabal, I'd say it's been a strong three-legged joint project. All three of them have exposed Democrats something fierce over the last three years.

here we go again :snoop:


fukk her for that, she's in the wrong for being dismissive about 9/11

we can talk about why it happened, but it doesnt change the fact that 3,000 people from all walks of life got up to go to work that morning and didnt come back to their families. i see what she was trying to do, and it was :camby:

the optics aren't great on that, I wish she would put more thought into what she says


she's failing miserably

No, she isn't. The GOP is putting stupid false outrage at every turn AND DELIBERATELY putting shyt out of context for clicks and headlines. Fukk them.



The supposedly controversial comments came in a speech Omar gave at a banquet for the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), a Muslim civil rights organization, in late March. In footage of the address uploaded to YouTube on Tuesday, Omar discusses the need for organizations like CAIR to ensure that Muslims writ large aren’t punished for the actions of a handful of extremists on 9/11.

“Far too long we have lived with the discomfort of being a second-class citizen, and frankly, I’m tired of it, and every single Muslim in this country should be tired of it,” Omar said at the event. “CAIR was founded after 9/11 because they recognized that some people did something and that all of us were starting to lose access to our civil liberties.”

Sounds harmless, right? But if stripped out of the context, Omar’s phrase “some people did something” can be spun as minimizing the significance of 9/11 for both the victims and the country writ large. This is not remotely accurate if you watch the full video, which I encourage you to do as a counterpoint to the out-of-context attacks. At the end, for example, she speaks movingly about how America’s national values motivated her family to immigrate to the United States.

“As an American member of Congress, I have to make sure I live up to the ideals of fighting for liberty and justice — those are very much rooted in the reason why my family came here,” she says.

Not exactly what an anti-American ideologue would say. But the full context hasn’t stopped Republicans from using the out-of-context version to bash Omar.
