(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 has publically taken the side of the Iranian regime. In fact, the Minnesota Congresswoman’s shocking statements today sound like she’s a representative of Tehran, not the United States. Well, that’s why Americans immediately torched her in ways she won’t soon forget. You don’t want to miss this.
Just when you think you can’t be shocked by anything Ilhan Omar says, the Somali refugee publicly makes ridiculous allegations against President Trump about the situation with Iran. It’s almost like Omar’s getting her talking points straight from the Mullahs in Iran.
Omar’s been on a roll making “treasonous” statements.
First, the 38-year-old freshman congresswoman has committed to “step in and stop” Trump after a U.S. airstrike killed Iranian terrorist Qassem Soleimani last week. Omar accused the president of wanting war as a distraction against impeachment.
On Tuesday, Minnesota’s most infamous congresswoman was getting blasted by conservative reporters after it was discovered she’s giving Iran advice to take out President Donald Trump’s hotels around the world. It’s so bad, Robert Spencer, the director of Jihad Watch, is labeling Omar a “representative of Tehran.”
Omar posted: “Trump needs to immediately divest from his businesses and comply with the emoluments clause. Iran could threaten Trump hotels *worldwide* and he could provoke war over the loss of revenue from skittish guests. His business interests should not be driving military decisions.”

Unfortunately, today’s treasonous rhetoric takes the cake. Omar sounds exactly like a spokesperson for the Iranian regime:
“This makes no sense. Sanctions are economic warfare,” the Minnesota Democrat said Wednesday on Twitter. “They have already caused medical shortages and countless deaths in Iran. You cannot claim to want deescalation and then announce new sanctions with no clear goal. This is not a measured response!”

Americans are sick and tired of Omar’s blatant hypocrisy and her devotion to enemies of the United States.
“What you just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response, were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it,” tweeted Graham Allen.

“So you admit BDS is economic warfare, then. You’re a hateful, raging, anti-semitic hag, and an embarrassment to our country. Can’t wait to block literally EVERY SUPPORTER of yours who defends you on this,” tweeted “Chicks on the Right.”

“Donald Trump is keeping his eye on the ball. He will keep using economic sanctions until the Iranians overthrow the tyrannical Mullahs, or until the Mullahs end their acts of terrorism against ‘infidels.’ Sorry if reigning in terrorists disappoints you,” tweeted John Betts.

“Yet you keep demanding BDS; an economic warfare on our biggest ally in ME Israel who are fighting same radical Islamic Irani regime you’re trying to save. It’s ok to cause medical shortages & countless deaths there cause they’re Jews. You’re the definition of hypocrisy @IlhanMN,” tweeted Sarai Idan, who is also “Miss Iraq.”

Besides the fact that Omar is clearly not faithfully representing the United States, she also has been named “2019 Antisemite of the Year.”
The advocacy group, stopantisemitism.org, selected the Minnesota Democrat as its “Antisemite of the Year” for comments accusing Jews of dual loyalty and influence-buying, as well as saying Israel is “hypnotizing the world.”
Danny Danon, Israel’s UN Ambassador is calling for action to be taken against Ilhan Omar. “@StopAntisemites just named Congresswoman Ilhan Omar it’s 2019 Antisemite of the Year,” Danon said. “Here is a clear opportunity to prove that all the talk about standing up to #antisemitism is not just an empty promise, but will be followed by action.”

Danon has previously stated that Omar needed to be removed from public office over anti-Semitism. “If you have people that use that kind of language, eventually I think the public need to remove them from office. If you allow them to continue the message, you send to the people that’s OK,” the ambassador said in May. “That’s what happened in the past in other countries, and we should not tolerate it.”
So, when is enough, enough?
Ilhan Omar has no business serving as a United States Congresswoman. It’s high time the Minnesota people do the right thing. Omar’s statements just in the last week are enough evidence for her constituents to call for her removal. We can now say with any doubt she is a danger to the security of the United States, and it’s time to take whatever steps necessary to make sure she no longer has access to America’s most classified information.
