Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., has long been a leading voice among Democrats calling for censorship and speech controls in the name of combatting disinformation. She is now accused of precisely the same conduct after posting a picture purportedly showing children killed by Israeli forces. In reality, it was a picture of victims of a 2013 sarin gas attack in Ghouta, Syria. The incident should, but is unlikely to, prompt Omar and fellow Democrats to reconsider their push for censorship and other anti-free speech measures. Such false imagery was quickly and effectively addressed in this incident without the need for bans and speech regulation.
Omar has denounced social media companies for their failure to take “information down and discontinuing the accounts of people who practice disinformation.”
The “Squad” member retweeted a photo of dead children with the caption “CHILD GENOCIDE IN PALESTINE.” The photo showed seven dead children wrapping in white clothes with the caption “614 Palestinian children murdered by the Israeli [IDF] forces.”
The false image was quickly identified and challenged, including in a community note from X, formerly known as Twitter. There are obviously children who have been and will be killed in Gaza. However, many will knowingly spread false images or claims as part of that debate. Whoever posted this picture had to have known that it was not showing children from Gaza.
Omar herself has been the victim of false photos, including photos widely reposted by political opponents like former president Donald Trump.
Conversely, she has had to apologize for “anti-Semitic” tweets.
The incident shows that free speech allows for its own disinfectant. Bad speech is countered by better speech as the public judges what is true and what is false.
Ironically, fellow ‘Squad’ member Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., triggered her own controversy after warning others about the “incredibly high” amount of misinformation on social media about the war and urged her followers not to be chumps in accepting manufactured or false images:
“If you see a claim, photo, or video that triggers a strong emotional reaction, take a moment to pause and check for veracity/confirmation from multiple sources.”
Meghan McCain then delivered a haymaker by posting AOC’s own picture of herself crying outside a chain fence during a protest over “kids in cages” during the Trump Administration. It was later denounced as a staged photo outside of a parking lot.
Such controversies will continue. The point is only that those advocates of censorship today could well be the targets tomorrow. Rather than silence those who are accused of such false images or claims, the solution is to protect the right of everyone to speak for themselves and to challenge others in these important national debates.
We also recently discussed how figures like Leon Panetta and even the Washington Post continue to voice or embrace debunked claims.
I would oppose efforts to censor Reps. Omar and Ocasio-Cortez despite my disagreement with their views. It is possible that we can, as Americans, unite behind our common article of faith in free speech and oppose the calls for censorship that have been mindlessly echoed by many, including Rep. Omar.
A wicked solution, a Pro-Choice ethical religion? Plausible, but not probable.

Douglas Murray has a point and provides excellent perspective in this short speech in an English Synagogue. We should follow suit and treat US Hamas supporters like Isis supporters.
—
Douglas Murray: ‘Treat UK Hamas supporters like Isis supporters’
Meyer – someone posted that a few days ago and I watched it. Excellent little speech.
I’m certain excellent perspective is no perspective at all.
The Hamas terrorists “didn’t care” if their victims were secular or religious, supporters of Likud or Yesh Atid… , “all that the terrorists cared about was that their victims were Jews.” In other words, what Hamas demonstrated was a willingness to destroy that which they hated, much like, here in America, organized Jewry’s willingness to destroy those it hates, be it an academic (e.g. Norman Finkelstein), an Historian (e.g. David Irving), a journalist (e.g. Joseph Sobran*), a politician (e.g. Pete McCloskey), or revered writer (e.g. Alexander Solzhenitzyn) — not a one of whom had ever physically harmed, hated, or advocated injury against anyone for their religion or political beliefs. So please, check your emotions at the door and stop pretending Hamas is the only group that harvests hatred for political purposes.
*An anti-Semite used to mean a man who hated Jews. Now it means a man who is hated by Jews.”
“Organized Jewry”? Really?
Can we all say “Nazi conspiracy theory”?
About the bestseller THE ISRAEL LOBBY it was said (Amazon): it “provoked both howls of outrage and cheers of gratitude for challenging what had been a taboo issue in America: the impact of the Israel lobby on U.S. foreign policy.”
I guess the issue is still taboo with some in Kansas.
LOL – the usual have gone bonkers in here since their not new at all new homeland war
I went to the link JT provided for ilhan omars disliked tweet, but you know what’s really strange, no tweet there.
I read it all it was blabbly bllaby blab.
No tweet no link no text of it.
None of her “apology” – characterizations or partial lines maybe but they included she said Aipac was still a problem.
So that whole deal is still a mystery and they don’t want me or anyone else reading her words or knowing her apology. So a censored link was provided
Gaza could have been the Singapore of the Middle East with all the resources that have been pumped in. But so many of the people there are in thrall to an ideology that prioritizes hatred, death, and destruction over life, health, and welfare. This includes their own death. Their saying is “we love death more than the Jews love life.” They are in a genocidal death cult that reared its ugly head on 10/7/23. Each person born there could have been like Tass Saada – born in Gaza in 1951 – if he or she had embraced goodness over hate.

Each demonized terrorist is initially a victim of a demonic spirit; they become less a victim and more a perpetrator as they give into, and ultimately embrace, that spirit. Then they make others their own victims.
It’s counterproductive to conflate Gazans and Hamas.
A.N.D.
Hence the qualifying phrase “so many” which perhaps you missed.
I almost ended the above comment with: “And I accept that A.N.D. will almost immediately respond telling me he disagrees” haha.
A.N.D. – The broader point has to do with the human capacity to embrace good or evil. I would be more interested in your perspective on that than on your little nit-picks of every comment I make. I mean maybe you’d rather not have that kind of conversation, but to me it would be more worthwhile.
I would think, too, that you would enjoy the book I linked to by a former PLO terrorist. It’s a fascinating first-hand account of his time in the PLO, his experiences as both a sniper and a personal chauffer of Yassir Arafat (including an interesting conversation he had with Arafat shortly before Arafat’s death), his almost-successful attempt to assassinate the crown prince of Jordan, and his ultimate embrace of a different kind of life in which he could do good to: Arabs, Gaza, Irasel, and Jews (all of the above).
I’m not sure what you’d like to know about my views of the human capacity to embrace good and evil. We’re a very confounding species — able to be peaceful, generous, kind, …, and also to be violent, greedy, hateful, … I aim for the former in my own life.
Thanks for the recommendation.
I agree and I’m glad to hear it.
You embrace the evil of jews and israel, and you expand and lie about the evils of gazans.
Time to look in the mirror.
@Shakdi: “You embrace…”. Captured Hamas documents and video taken from the bodies of your slain ‘freedom fighters” will speak truth to power of the butchery capable of a people whose level of moral and ethical turpitude has already been made known to the world through the recent war on non/believers of all stripe by ISIS and others of their ilk. It is less about the land and more about the depravity spawned of the perversions of the teachings of a man of God. Perversions not unlike that of other self/styled ‘prophets’ of the past, now rendered to the dung heap of history, who declared that there were those who should not live because they were deemed the inferior’children of a lesser God’, and therefore unworthy. Humanity will once again render its judgement on them. Do not send to know for whom the bell tolls. It toll for thee.
Hey bucky boy, 24 to 1 death rate.
You can’t win on they are terrorists. Only dumb idiots fall for it.
As I said before, we will take YOU as an example. Here is your test question – 4 of your family members, 6 extended members, 7 friends, and the rest, 6 more, known to locals. Out of the 24 of you, you can all die, or one can get the terrorists mistreatment.
It’s your choice, CHOOSE.

Talk to you later fool.
“Gaza could have been the Singapore of the Middle East with all the resources that have been pumped in. ”
Your delusions never end. Israel, the sworn enemy of those occupying their land given to them by God. The jews have starved them and forced them to remain without resources for nearly two decades.
If it weren’t for Israel and their jew policies, it would be a paradise.
Now let’s repeat you, and what you want – WIPE THEM OFF THE FACE OF THE EARTH.
You mean the demonic spirit of the israeli policies, taking their land, wiping them out 24 to 1, starving them, blockading them in … that demonic spirit.
Uncle Joe warns Israel not to occupy Gaza.
But the US occupies Germany & Japan for 70 years after WWII just in case.
We didn’t want to wipe them off the face of the earth. We made rich wealthy economic powerhouses and didn’t WAR WITH THEM for decades after we took over their lands. In fact we never took them over.
Next STUPID argument.
I mentioned below that part of Omar’s lie was in the word “murder” since Israel doesn’t intentionally target civilians. The terrorist apologists were quick to respond, somewhat absurdly, by pointing to other forms of murder recognized by Anglo-American common law. Two things about that: first, Omar clearly was not referring to those other types of murder. Second, even if she was they don’t fit, since there is no felony being committed apart from the killing (as necessary for felony murder) and there is no basis to suggest depraved-heart murder in a military-strike context.
I mean these types of responses just show what ridiculous lengths the terrorist apologists will go to to avoid admitting that Omar lied. Are they really that self-unaware? Do they really not recognize how ridiculous they come off looking? Sheesh!
I’m one of the people who responded to you, and I’m not a “terrorist apologist.” I have repeatedly condemned Hamas’s terrorist acts. I was simply noting that your claim about the connotation of “murder” is false. Whether you believe that the other forms of murder apply in this case is irrelevant. You made a false claim about the meanings of “murder,” and you were called on it. That’s it. Nothing about that implies that the person calling you out is an apologist for Hamas.
A.N.D.
A.N.D. – I accept that you are not a terrorist apologist, but I disagree with your analysis that I was wrong to state that Omar lied in accusing Israel of murder. It is clear what she meant, that Israel had intentionally killed the children in the photo.
For example, there is no basis at all to think she was suggesting Israeli soldiers were part of a group of people participating in a convenience-store armed robbery in which someone got killed by someone else (felony murder). Similar for depraved-heart murder. The average person would laugh at the suggestion Omar’s intended meaning was that Israel unintentionally killed the children in the photo but with a depraved heart.
You and I can only guess at Omar’s definition for “murder.” For example, I can imagine that she used “murder” simply to mean that the IDF killed Palestinian children and were aware that they’d be killing children when they bombed Gaza.
“The average person would laugh at the suggestion Omar’s intended meaning was that Israel unintentionally killed the children in the photo but with a depraved heart.”
I’m not saying that that’s HER meaning. I don’t know her meaning with any certainty. You don’t either. I was simply noting that your connotation is too narrow for how the word “murder” is actually used. And depraved heart murder is actually pretty close to my view of it: they’re not aiming to kill children, but they know that they’re going to kill children, and it doesn’t stop them. They seem indifferent to the fact that they’re killing children and other innocent people, even though that’s not the explicit intent.
A.N.D.
Well I mean every large military operation is known to have a high chance of resulting in civilian deaths. I don’t think that qualifies as depraved-heart murder. When the Allies bombed Hitler’s munitions factories, and his dams that supplied electricity to those factories, they were well aware some civilian deaths would occur. I would not call those bombings depraved-heart murder. But those bombings would fit within your description “they’re not aiming to kill children, but they know that they’re going to kill children, and it doesn’t stop them.”
If the Nazis used children as human shields, wouldn’t the Nazis be the ones responsible? Yet Hamas is known to use civilians, including children, as human shields. It purposely stations its military equipment in hospitals, schools, mosques, and so forth, to induce such civilian deaths. IMO if anyone is responsible for the civilian deaths it is Hamas, who provokes them by committing terrorist atrocities, and then induces them by using the civilians as human shields.
I blame Hamas as well, but not solely Hamas.
I don’t know if this will make sense to you, but I heard an Israeli Jew criticizing Netanyahu for having previously invested so much in Iron Dome and so little in negotiation. When your only tool is a hammer, you tend to see at all of your problems as nails.
I heard an Israeli Jew criticizing Netanyahu for having previously invested so much in Iron Dome and so little in negotiation
There are always going to be some yahoos in every bunch who say silly things. Good thing Bibi has more sense than that. Only a fool would negotiate with someone whose only goal in life was to kill him, wipe his nation off the face of the map, and wipe his people off the face of the earth. As I recall Neville Chamberlain tried negotiating with Hitler and that didn’t work out so well.
Neither I nor the person I referred to said “negotiating with Hamas.”
That kind of response is a dead end unless you clarify who the negotiation is supposed to be with.
Negotiate with Palestinian groups who aren’t terrorists.
Are you saying Israel doesn’t do that? And which groups specifically do you mean?
Not to mention that the premise of the argument is a false choice. Israel can do both-and, not either-or. Israel can walk and chew gum at the same time. So the whole premise of the comment is false, even if it is coming from an Israeli Jew.
Anyone who has been paying attention knows why Israel needs the Iron Dome, and needs it to be even more effective than it currently is.
It’s not a false choice. Again, what I wrote was “I heard an Israeli Jew criticizing Netanyahu for having previously invested so much in Iron Dome and so little in negotiation.” She was not saying that they do only the former and never the latter; it was a comment about the relative investment in each.
She didn’t say which groups would be involved in the negotiations, at least not in the portion of the interview that I heard. Since it’s a comment about actions over time, my guess is that the groups could well change over time (e.g., Hamas was not initially a terrorist group, so perhaps early on Hamas would have been included in negotiations even though it wouldn’t more recently).
your people on the border of the gaza strip were human shields – for many hours no police or military showed up – the lowest report is 5 hours and the tweeting air force pilots claiming 45 minutes is a known lie since people on the ground would have seen them and they did not.
Reports are 12 hours is generally the outside response time.
So you had a human border shield, after DECADES of an ongoing conflict and war.
You of course means israel but you since you argue only from one side.
Old man,
I offered the felony murder response. As with A.N.D. have and will condemn Hamas and support Israel. I also do not support Omar at all. The point of the response was to get at the lack of precision with which you were attacking Omar. One can disagree with her actions without grossly simplifying the definition of murder.
Murder (at least in the Anglo-American tradition; I cannot speak to Ottoman law), does not require require specific intent in all cases. You noted that “murder” requires intentional targeting of civilians. That is not true. Why reduce an argument to incorrect oversimplification?
Finally, there absolutely are tons of felonies committed. Whether there are affirmative defenses to those felonies – i.e., justified actions to protect kidnapped Israelis, etc.) is a different story. Again, you oversimplify with your generalist and imprecise language.
Side note: Not everyone who disagrees with you is a “terrorist apologist.” I am Jewish. I support Israel. I also am generally a fan of precision and accuracy, whether with bombs or words.
You’re a joke. We all know israeli soldiers mow down gaza civilians.
Both you war mongerers are murderers.
Israel murders 24X more than gazans, SO MOWING DOWN CIVILIANS IS A MUST FOR ISRAEL.
“I mentioned below that part of Omar’s lie was in the word “murder” since Israel doesn’t intentionally target civilians.”
To imagine IDF isn’t in there slaughtering civilians like a raging wildfire or erupting volcano is to be an idiot, to even believe the big lie is to be as dumb as rock, and that includes before the latest skirmish in the ongoing decades of war.
Why you proved it to me yourself, with your insane screeds. Not that I need it I’ve got the numbers. Now I will check the most recent numbers, which may be banned since the slaughter went over even steven a long time ago….
At least 2,778 people have been killed and 9,700 wounded in Gaza.
At all counts about half were women and children in gaza.
My condolences, it’s not 24 to 1 yet, I’m sure you are very disappointed.
It would good if we stopped referring to these people as the “squad” in fact shouldn’t we stop calling the Democrats as the Democrat party given their current politics? I’m sure there’s a more appropriate name we can give?
To me, they’re inciting frauds. And think and gaslight like communists do

And why is she still in congress with her constant lying , especially starting with her marriage?
Anonymous (Banned anonymous), I read your post, and it makes me wonder if you bother to look at the world around you. In 2005, Israel departed from Gaza and left small industries destroyed, not by Israel but by Hamas and those filled with hatred. Since around 2007, Gaza has sent unprovoked missiles into Israeli territory, most of the time not responded to. The children are trained to be anti-Semites, filled with hate, and taught that killing Jews is good.
The rest of the world, including Israel, supplies Gaza with money and resources. That money is spent not on the people but on weapons, missiles, and terror to attack Israel almost daily.
Israel doesn’t enter Gaza except when attacked. Israel doesn’t control the Gazan people, Hamas (and Iran) do. Gaza is small with a large population, but if it were peaceful, it would have thrived. Singapore did. Why? I decided to do a comparison and happily found this article.
What is Gaza like under the rule of the terrorist group Hamas? Hamas’s Taliban-like mini-emirate is a brutal tinpot dictatorship where LGBTQ+ people and anyone living other than a strictly Islamic lifestyle lives under terrible repression. ….

NEXT STUPID ARGUMENT.
“NEXT STUPID ARGUMENT.”
Shakdi, your intellectual development is stunted, leaving you spewing ignorance.
The Japanese occupied Singapore in WW2, and following the war, the British controlled it similarly to its post-war control over the Middle East. Afterward, Singapore and its adjacent neighbor united only to split because of ethnic, religious, and social reasons.
Singapore’s beginnings were difficult as it had massive unemployment and scarce resources in a multiethnic state with multiple languages.
The atomic bomb has nothing to do with Gaza’s development.
You want to be an anti-Semite. That is fine with me, but why do you want to be a stupid one?
Same answer as before dimbulb. So the atomic bomb doesn’t matter ? The 200 or whatever Israel has doesn’t matter with gaza’s dev ? OK GET RID OF THEM AND we shall see what it matters….ROFL YEAH NICE TRY BUCKO.
So you and your people put Intel’s works in gaza, right ? Because I know plenty is in israel. Also in Malaysia, gigantic money Intel.
LMAO
You’re a lying fool.
Singapore is famous for being a global financial center (gee why was the jew thinking about it ?)
SEND YOUR BANKERS INTO GAZA
You’re an idiot, a liar, a war monger. If you spoke the truth I wouldn’t reply. Get your head screwed on straight. Good luck.
“Singapore is famous for being a global financial center “
Your type of hate and ignorance is why Gaza exists in such a low state. They spend money on weapons and killing rather than building things. The same goes for you.
Singapore is a center of trade with its ports., but stupid you doesn’t realize that. Where is Gaza? On the Mediterranean Sea which is very valuable land if used correctly. You are too stupid to figure that out.
A BEAUTIFUL TROPICAL ISLAND NATION… A CITY NATION STATE A BANKING CENTER
One of the key factors contributing to Singapore’s economic miracle was its strategic location, which made it an ideal hub for international trade and commerce. Singapore is the regional hub for wealth management.
YEAH THANKS SO MUCH FOR YOUR GREAT FCKN BRAIN, THROW IT IN THE TRASH MEYERS

All jewish slave ships there are more- not sure what percentage can be called british, but up to 40 percent of all jews owned slaves (1820), and although only 1.6 percent of the American public were slave owners, (1860) 1.25% of the American public were jews and slave owners ( US Census). So most of the slave owners were jewish families in 1848 jews were 3.125% of the American public.
Well, isn’t that interesting. So beating and hanging slaves and drawing and quartering them in torture deaths. Golly, not good !

A group of House Dems has introduced a resolution calling for an immediate ceasefire to prevent further loss of Israeli and Palestinian lives.
Co-leads: André Carson, Rashida Tlaib, Cori Bush, Summer Lee, Delia Ramirez
Co-sponsors include: Bowman, AOC, Omar, García, Pressley, Velázque
So the ——-s are done with their slaughter?
First they shoot at you and then they say they want peace. Sincerity is not one of their traits.
It was sometime yesterday or two days before the death tally was equaled up by Israel.
Now they have far exceeded it.
It’s like you drop a nuke then someone claims let’s call for peace, and you say, nope, you started it… (which isn’t true anyway)
No it’s not as bad as a nuke, but it’s a lot worse than evening up the score.
People are calling for a cease fire because the score was evened up some time ago.
Is it their fault Israel is a much more efficient murdering machine ? I’d say no. I’d say it’s Israel’s fault, they pump themselves full and have started the gaza strip for decades.
So when you retaliate and exceed the even it up score expect people to say slow down time to make peace.
It’s probably quintuple right now, and since 24X murders have been required by Israel for decades, I’d say israeli resistance is still gung ho.
614 Palestinian children murdered by the Israeli [IDF] forces.”
The other lie is in the word “murdered.” That connotes the intentional killing of children. That’s what Hamas does. Israel never intentionally targets civilians, certainly not children. If civilians are killed in Israeli strikes, it’s because Hamas uses them as human shields (Hamas even put roadblocks to prevent civilians escaping to south Gaza along the safe route), or that some civilian deaths are inevitable when striking military targets. Again, to qualify as a murder, the purpose of the strike would have to be the death of children, which is never true of Israeli military strikes.
War crimes are being committed by both Hamas and Israel: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2023_Israel%E2%80%93Hamas_war#War_crimes
That isn’t true, at least per the US understanding of the term.
Felony murder is a thing.
What’s the felony in this case?
LMAO “The same day, independent United Nations experts[o] condemned the military actions of Israel, saying that the nation had resorted to “indiscriminate military attacks” and “collective punishment.”
Of course, Israel will probably increase that 24 to 1 death murder kill ratio to 30 to 1 or 50 to 1 .
Israel wants them wiped, has wanted it for some time.
Israel is the only one who can wipe out the other side, and they have made great progress in 75 years.
One man’s ceiling…
is another man’s floor.
You’re mistaken about the connotation of murder. Consider, for example, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Depraved-heart_murder
Where’s the depraved heart in this case?
(Putting aside that clearly Omar wasn’t talking about felony murder or third-degree murder. Sheesh!)
I didn’t say that there’s depraved heart murder in this case. I simply pointed out that Henry’s claim was false and gave an example of why.
First – thanks for remembering my name. Second, every conversation and every assertion has a context. It was clear that I was explaining the meaning of the word “murder” in this context – that is, the context of Omar’s accusation that Israel had murdered children. Trying to score a point against me by evaluating my assertions in a different context only comes off as pedantic and irrelevant.
In other news: “Leading Democrats Justify Hamas’ Decapitation of Israeli Babies as ‘Deferred Abortion'”
~+~
The Current Democratic Party leadership has bowed to its fringe and labeled the killing of Israeli children as “Deferred Abortion”, stating that “Hamas freedom fighters have a right to choose” when dispatching civilians deemed as infidels.
Planned Parenthood considered this a novel approach toward terminating the lives of human beings. It had long argued the legality of abortion comes down to a matter of timing but with the Deferred Abortion option, “We can now support the intersection of abortion with infanticide without the constraint of an arbitrary point in time such as Live Birth interfering with choice.”
The caucus known as “The Squad” on Capitol Hill announced its intent to introduce legislation codifying Deferred Abortion as federal law, but soon discovered that they were unable to locate a willing lobbyist or special interest group able to write the text of the statute, since they are unable to figure out how to do this themselves.
“Deferred abortion!”
Sure; why not?
“The caucus known as “The Squad” on Capitol Hill announced its intent to introduce legislation codifying Deferred Abortion as federal law, but soon discovered that they were unable to locate a willing lobbyist or special interest group able to write the text of the statute, since they are unable to figure out how to do this themselves.”
Maybe the squad could try contacting anonymous since as one of their own disciples he would be on board for something like this, but then again, given his impotent, clueless response, maybe not.

In my comments to Prof. Turley’s blog for at least a year or more, I’ve been advocating that donors to universities and colleges re-evaluate their contributions in light of the changed policies of the schools since those donors were students, which in some cases dates back to the 1950’s and earlier, a much different time than now. And i am gratified to the blog reader who shared a link to a Free Press article indicating that billionaire Bill Ackman and others have begun closing their checkbooks — i hope this continues. I no longer contribute to my Ivy League alma mater due to how unrecognizable it has become in the age of rage (as Turley puts it) and increasing woke-ism. Then the 10’s of millions in annual donations begin to slow to a trickle, you know that old expression: ‘money talks.’
My heart is warmed that it took the israelis and their 75 year war and gore pics to finally have what should have sunk in by 1970, finally sink in a year ago for you and now for the billionaire.

Anything for israel of course.
If the Republican controlled house will not censure these radical American-haters and then expel them for supporting America’s enemies then they all, every last Republican, should resign their seat as they do not have the best interests of America and its citizens at heart. This is far more offensive than the fake women we have to endure in our government or the open borders that are infesting our nation with just who knows what. WHEN will these rino lily-livered chumps take action like true Americans?
Geeze, that wipes out the entire Congress.

You are unable to read. It called something false but then fails to produce the evidence. Snopes bases a lot of its claims on turning the English language into a pretzel.
Almost all your claims are the same and lack validity.
I agree, the pics snopes have show it is all BRAND NEW it looks like a super upscale gated neighborhood.
So AOC was swimming in luxury as she fake cried for the photo op.
On the other hand, some of the right wingers go down there then walk through the brush and dry regions with border patrol and see what is actually going on, going for miles and risking their lives on foot.
So AOC scores negative 3
The right wingers positive 5 or 10
Rep. Ilhan Omar: the fraud that keeps on giving.
Omar is the embodiment of evil. Period
What kind of person stages a photo in a parking lot and sells it like she is at the border crying over kids in cages. We must have a sober judgement about the character of such a person. She must have gone to the Jussie Smollett school of drama. We should forever take into account this moment when we consider anything that she has to say in the future. No more than a racist Jew hating drama queen begging for attention.
AOC is a fraud. What else would you expect?
A very ignorant fraud . . . .
TiT,
She is the reflection of the kind of people who voted for her.
She didn’t stage it, and if anyone is a drama queen here, it’s you.
Yet you have no proof except for a link that proved nothing.
did she commit an anti-semitism at the border ?
