(This post may contain disputed claims. We make no assertions as to the validity of the information presented by our Opinion Columnist. We are an opinion blog, not a traditional news outlet, and this post should be treated as such. Enjoy.)Rep. Ilhan Omar is back in the news, and this time she has gone too far. The Muslim Congresswoman is claiming there is a homosexual conspiracy going on in the Oval Office involving President Donald Trump and Senator Lindsey Graham. The Minnesota politician who is known for her anti-Semitic remarks is now spreading these vicious lies, and boy did she get destroyed. Don’t miss this.
To understand the vicious lies Rep. Ihan Omar is spreading, we must start with where this homosexual conspiracy first started. It all started earlier when MSNBC anchor Stephanie Ruhle claimed Sen. Lindsey Graham was being blackmailed by Trump over “something pretty extreme.”
“Earlier this week, and without any evidence, Ruhle closed an MSNBC segment about Graham’s support for Trump with the media/left’s latest form of McCarthyism: ‘It could be that Donald Trump or somebody knows something pretty extreme about Lindsey Graham. We’re gonna leave it there’,” Breitbart reported. “Everyone knows what Ruhle is referring to, which is why she was comfortable saying she would ‘leave it there.'”
For years now, rumors have swirled that the never-married 63-year-old Graham is a homosexual. Ruhle wanted to get this rumor swirling as a means to punish Graham for his energetic and effective support for Trump of late, and so far it has worked and that’s where Rep. Ihan Omar comes in.
Just 24 hours after MSNBC insinuated Graham was being blackmailed by Trump over his alleged homosexuality, which by the way the Senior Senator has outright denied, the Muslim Congresswoman using her verified Twitter account, wrote of Graham, “They got to him, he is compromised!”

It’s pretty ironic that Rep. Omar is retweeting Qasim Rashid who Jihad Watch’s Robert Spencer finds to be a “one-man cottage industry of deception and hypocrisy.” Spencer reports:
Previously Rashid has whitewashed Muhammad’s support for torture and the reality of jihad violence and Sharia oppression; dissembled about the Qur’an’s sanction of deception of unbelievers; lied about the presence of violent passages in the Qur’an; lied about the Qur’an’s sanction of beating disobedient women; lied about the nature of Sharia; and called for limitations on the freedom of speech.
Well, when Rep. Omar was confronted with her salacious and slanderous allegations, what did she do? Of course, she feigns shock and denies she was referring to homosexuality at all. Omar tweeted, “Yes, because the Right thinks being homosexual is ‘compromising.’ Well I have news for them, being LGBTQ+ isn’t something we should be ashamed of! Y’all know my tweet had nothing to do with his sexuality and everything to do with his blind cooperation w/ Trump. Let’s focus!”
Funny thing, we are pretty sure homosexuality is outlawed in Muslim countries. So what was the Minnesota Congresswoman referring to as the big problem Lindsey Graham has that caused her to tweet he is compromised?
Well, she doesn’t know. She decided to use deflection on her Twitter feed calling everyone Islamophobes and bigots who called her out. Many Americans were ripe with anger, and they destroyed her. “It’s not great that *the defense* of Omar and Ruhle is that maybe they were spreading some different baseless conspiracy theory,” tweeted Free Beacon reporter Alex Griswold.

“And just why should we care if Lindsey Graham is gay? I am not a huge fan of his but it shouldn’t matter. Democrats are supposed to be for equality for all but they are now showing their true colors and I don’t think it is rainbow. #LiberalismIsAMentalDisease,” posted “GT Wilson.”

Just because a man remains single does not mean he is gay. I agree, it really is not my business if Graham is gay, but if people would do a little research on the South Carolina Senator, it makes sense why he never got married.
When he was just a freshman in college, his parents died, and he had a younger sister who was in grade school. His sister took the deaths very hard and she had to go live with an aunt, and they were not close. Lindsey then returned after college and made sure his sister Darline could live with him in their family home.
Darline Nordone, who lives in Lexington, has said Graham always has been a father figure to her. Graham later adopted Darline so she could receive his medical benefits. Graham admits he almost married a flight attendant named Sylvia when he was overseas, but after one year of courtship, it didn’t work out, says Graham.
On why he never married, Graham told Politico: “It’s something I really don’t know the answer to, other than I think it’s OK. At the end of the day, there’s nothing wrong about not being married. Having a marriage and a good family and children is a blessing. But I don’t think I’m a defective person by any means.”
Rep. Ilhan is straight up lying when she pretends her accusations that Graham is “compromised” have nothing to do with the rumors about his sexuality. Of course, she watched that MSNBC report and the next day she posts the damning tweet. Why lie? Well, that’s how these Democratic sewer rats roll. Their minds are in the gutter, and they will lie and cheat and ruin a man’s reputation. How anyone can vote for these scumbags is beyond me.
