Far-left, anti-Semitic Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) unsurprisingly lashed out at the American people in a disgusting manner after a GOP congressman called for her to be sent back to Somalia.
As The Gateway Pundit reported, Rep. Brandon Gill (R-TX) circulated a petition earlier this month that called for the arrest and deportation of Omar for treason. Gill, a first-term Congressman and son-in-law of conservative filmmaker Dinesh D’Souza, urged supporters to sign a petition to deport Omar in a fundraising email.
Omar, the first Somali American elected to Congress, entered the United States in 1995 during the Somali Civil War by claiming refugee status. She became a citizen five years later at 17 years old, although there are reports that she married her brother to obtain a green card.
Omar sat down with Zeteo’s Mehdi Hasan on Sunday to respond to Gill’s provocative comments. What followed was an outrageous attack on Trump supporters and any American deviating from the leftist narrative.

“You and I have discussed people attacking you in the past, but you have this new freshman Congressional Representative, this lawmaker Brandon Gill, Republican, who tweeted out that video of you and wrote America would be a better place if Ilhan Omar were deported back to Somalia,” Hasan began. “I mean, I thought I’d seen everything, and I’ve seen a lot of attacks on you.”
“But now you have a Republican colleague, dare I say, in the House saying to deport an American citizen, an American lawmaker, and an elected representative. How do you deal with that?” He inquired
Omar responded by insulting Gill and her other critics as idiots.
“These people are just idiots,” Omar replied. “I really am at the point where it has become really hard to have an intellectual debate with any of these people because the level of stupidity that they are displaying every single day is frankly embarrassing.”
Then she doubled down with an outrageous comment targeting the intelligence of the American people for daring to elect Trump.
“Not just in Congress but as Americans, and the fact that these people are allowed to say just the most ridiculous things tells you that the dumbing of the United States has arrived because how else do we get a Trump presidency again?”
