Rep. Ilhan Omar Removed From Foreign Affairs Committee, Democrats Melt Down

In a party line vote with one Republican simply voting “present,” Democrat Representative Ilhan Omar was removed from her seat on the Foreign Affairs Committee. This follows significant controversy over anti-semitic and racist comments she has made. She’s compared the nation of Israel to terrorist organizations like the Taliban and claimed that the America’s relationship with Israel is “all about the Benjamins” while insinuating that some American lawmakers are being paid by Israeli organizations. She defended herself by pretending like she didn’t realize these remarks might be offensive to Jewish Americans. Right. Ultimately, her offensive comments about an entire nation and demographic of Americans and her clear disdain for a nation that has thus far been our ally begs questions about her fitness to serve objectively on the Foreign Affairs Committee.

She’s being removed for good reason. But Democrats would have you believe that she’s only being removed because Republicans and Kevin McCarthy in particular are vindictive racists who don’t like that a Muslim woman is in Congress. Watch Democrats Rashida Tlaib, Cory Bush, and AOC have epic meltdowns on the House floor about it. AOC is actually bouncing up and down with how mad she is that Ilhan Omar is being held accountable for the things she’s said. Nevermind that Marjorie Taylor Greene was removed from her committee assignments for past comments she made. It’s a double standard, see. Republicans can be removed from committees for past comments, but Democrats are supposed to get a free pass to say whatever they want and maintain their committee seats. How DARE they hold Ilhan Omar accountable!

It has nothing to do with her being Muslim.

    If only Ill-handed Oh-my-goodness could be removed from America with the same ease as removing her from that committee. Airhead Occupying-Congress, (AO-C) sounded like a whiny, catty government schoolgirl during her outburst over Omar’s dismissal and was equally patronizing.

    Don’t forget that the Quran that Omar believes in directs Muslims to lie to non-believers (taqiyya) to protect their own credibility. She lied to get in the country. She even lied taking her oath of office. Omar doesn’t doesn’t give a rats rear-end about our Constitution. She would bring Sharia law into the US in a heartbeat if she could.

    You know, I’d probably get censured, but, if I was on the floor today, I’d have yelled out, SHUT THE EVER LIVING F*** UP, you useless wankers!
