Rep. Ilhan Omar faces calls to ‘resign in disgrace’ over speech in support of Somalia

- A top House Republican called on Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) to resign Monday for delivering a speech in which her critics say she placed Somali interests ahead of American ones.
“Ilhan Omar’s appalling, Somalia-first comments are a slap in the face to the Minnesotans she was elected to serve and a direct violation of her oath of office,” House Majority Whip Tom Emmer (R-Minn.) wrote on X. “She should resign in disgrace.”
Omar, the first Somali American in Congress, appeared to assure her Somali American constituents that she would do everything in her power to prevent the disputed, breakaway Republic of Somaliland from entering into a sea-access deal with landlocked Ethiopia.
A clip of the Minnesota lawmaker went viral with over 2.6 million views after it was posted on X, with a translation saying Omar had said: “As Somalis, one day we will go after our missing territories.”
The congresswoman claims her remarks were lost in translation.

But she calls Trump anti-American. What a joke.
Didn’t trump just send his manga goons to attack the White House ?

He still allows dual citizenship Israeli in congress

So I’m a Russian immigrant, and if I was a congress person who said the same thing about Russia, I would be kicked out of congress and sent back to Russia and NOBODY would have an issue with it. Time to go Ilhan
But she is black and woke braindead gangs support her, remember laws are not written for liberals
😂😂😂 she said the same thing American Jews in congress say about Israel. Just admit you are a racist.
You just saying, you are Russian might get you kicked out.
you are mot russian
Only if you were a republican. It would be allowed if you were a Democrat and pulled in more votes for them.
If you are a member of congress, your loyalty should be first and only to the United States.

She can’t be . Her book is -and always will be her number one . If dogs had a Bible and it told dogs to bite everyone who wasn’t a dog… i’d be afraid of most dogs. And the idea that some dogs don’t bite other people won’t help …

She became a citizen at 17 to now destroy the very country she chose to live it.
This is extremely telling of how inconsistent and racist conservatives have become. They have an issue with this, but not the dozens of Jewish congressional officials who openly put Israel first?
she should never have been allowed to run for congress in the first place because she wasn't born in the usa.
Married her brother and committed immigration fraud.
Now that's what you call radical she's f***** up I don't like her she don't even help her on
It’s the plan, they don’t immigrate here to embrace our culture, it’s a take over.
Why isn't she a congresswoman in Somalia?
We should be asking this of Antony Blinken as well. And all the other Israel bootlickers

Expel & Deport
What a shame to put her in congress in first place 😕
She should be forced to resign out of congress. This is insanity! 🤦🏼♀️
for what? international diplomacy?
Omar became a US citizen in 2000 by taking this oath: "“I hereby declare, on oath, that I absolutely and entirely renounce and abjure all allegiance and fidelity to any foreign prince, potentate, state, or sovereignty, of whom or which I have heretofore been a subject or citizen; that I will support and defend the Constitution and laws of the United States of America ..."

Send her Immediately on a One Way Trip to Somalia NOW! She has No business in American Politics Period - she is Not WITH America she is WITH Somalia!
Let her return home and be elected to tell the US government what to do from there.
Don't say I didn't warn you about Ilhan Omar. Now look what that thing has gotten us into.
Every member of Congress’ loyalty should be first & foremost to the United States. Clearly that is not the case with Omar. She should move back to Somalia if that’s where her allegiance lies. Why is she here if her heart is in Somalia?
She represents district 5 minnesota.
You should go back too 😂
@@iwarsame946You’re an Islamic terrorist just like her. You should be in a prison in Israel.
@@LJama6119I know. All people like her who hate the American way of life. They should go back to their own country if they won’t adopt the American culture. We’re not converting to Islam, we’re not adopting their sharia law.

It is finally time for Omar to resign in complete disgrace.
@Ilbeg777 Well said.
She would be happier in Somalia. Au recoil!
Spell check……….sugh. Au revoir
She doesn't belong in our Congress.
Why
She not only perpetrates actions detrimental to the U.S. and the district she is meant to represent, but she has also contributed to the division within the Somali community, despite claiming to advocate for their interests. She has aligned herself with her uncle, a warlord in Putland, and has also associated with the so-called SSC, a recognized terrorist organization situated on the border between Somalia and the city of Las Anod in Somaliland. Furthermore, her collaboration with Al-Shabaab, another terrorist organization in Somalia, raises concerns about her potential role as a foreign agent within the United States. It is time for her to leave both Congress and the country.
oo huwantana miyay taageertay dee iyadaaba haddaa terrorist ah
Well said! It is time for Ilhan to Go. She is a Disgrace to think she was trusted to do a job on behalf of the American people. She Infiltrated our government. Traitor
Can she just leave please? Why does the rest of the country have to suffer for the bad votes of a few Minnesotans?
Speak English, Your in America now, Not Somalia
Focus oj AIPAC.
NOT Ilhan defendinh her country of Origin
@@MohamedAmin-zz8wothen she should defend her country of origin and step down as a united states congresswoman.
Why didn’t she mention the millions she stole !!!!
She represents who? Certainly not the USA but her folks back in failed STATE
You should've put the failed in capitals , or the words "failed state" in all caps.
Highlighting its a state is not really saying much.
Btw Somalia is a US ally. The US funds Somalia to defeat terrorists and there are several US soldiers who have fought on behalf of the US in Somalia . Showing support for an ally is natural . Similar to supporting Ukraine.
She represents her electorate, as long as they support her that’s what matters. Lucky for her, they aren’t so quick to hate just because of her ethnicity
well theyre doing the same thing with israel whats the difference
And what about your country Always in The failed state what they doing there They should go
What type of anti American ish is going on right here??
Lovely we have foreigners sitting inside the government isn’t it.
Dems Gone Wild
She hates this country and should be removed from congress immediately 😡
@LadieKadie we need to dump her back in the sandlot she so desperately crawled out of 😤
Lovely we have isreal dual citizenship sitting inside congress
She is disgraceful
This woman is chasing the dream that her father and her uncle „dictator Siyaad bare“ couldn’t achieve, which is to make Darood „small tribe“ that is inhabitant mostly in Ethiopia, Kenya and small number in Somalia an empire that want to rule the other 85% of Somalis and the Horn of Africa. Her father was a general/Officer who specifically took part the Isaaq genocide.
Fake history has no source. Isaaq 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂😂 invisible😢😢 maskiin
They should never had allowed her to be sworn in on the Koran. That was a sign of loyalty to her country and NOT to the US. I knew it then, and she is proving it now. Matter of fact, she's been proving it all along with her anti- semitism remarks.
Obama was also sworn in on the Koran. That's gone well, hasn't it?
Why dual Israel citizens in congress are allowed 10billion of our money
The Quran belonged to Thomas Jefferson, the founding father of this nation. The US is for all people and it’s what this nation represents, that includes equality for all religions. You can’t put Bible over everyone else.
@@Handle0108 In which part of my comment have I mention the bible?
@@destiny3423 what kind of question is that? You do know that usually people are sworn in with the Bible right, well all I was saying was that Ilhan Omar ain’t Christian so that’s not possible.
Translation: Her allegiance is towards Somalia and Islam. She is in the US to protect the Interests of Somalia and Islam.
Shes an elected representative of the American people...whose main preoccupation is Somalia and Islam 🙄
@@shenitasalade8623
She’s a somoli and should go back.
The jews are in USA to protect israel interest too.
This is extremely telling of how inconsistent and racist conservatives have become. They have an issue with this, but not the dozens of Jewish congressional officials who openly put Israel first?
❗️
The UNITED STATES OF AMERICA needs to rid itself of omar
This is why nobody in Congress should be able to be an immigrant. Just like for President.
I smell a stinky racist 😊
So that means only native Americans can be in congress? Because all white Americans are descendants of European immigrants.
Just like all those jews
MAJOR CONFLICT OF INTEREST
WE KNOW WHO SHE'S SUPPPOSED REPRESENT..DOES SHE?
HOW MUCH MORE OF THIS PERSON DOES OUR COUNTRY HAVE TO DEAL WITH???
According to Hakeem Jeffries, its all Extreme Maga Republicans fault.
Although you are from Somalia, treat yourself an American, and act like you are an American! Appreciate this country, don’t just take advantage of it.
And why trump act like israeli
I@@endtoend4856 Israel is of American interest.
@@itsmepeople1tf😂
Tell that to our Secretary of State
So, she’s elected in the US, but does the interests of other Countries. Much I Va. say against Italian politicians but at least they speak our language and do our interests
I am somali and a linquist. The translation is 100 percent correct. The small flag (green white blue) hunging next to her is actually her indigenous state in somalia called puntland.
She was actually there celebrating the anauguration of her states selected president.
Thats why she was there.
Thank you for that information.
If that's her state, she needs to go live there.
@@jeanettevandiver8934 yup you are correct bro. Asap too.
Oh no!
She said that while she's in Congress she's going to make sure Somalia's sovereignty is respected--that it doesn't fall victim to the US like other nations have.
The horror!
She's ate up with demons.
One of the reasons America First doesn't happen.
Whut. She can't represent real American taxpayers. Oh heck no.
Her book is -and always will be her number one . If dogs had a Bible and it told dogs to bite everyone who wasn’t a dog… i’d be afraid of most dogs. And the idea that some dogs don’t bite other people won’t help …
No need to bring books into this, it’s about allegiance to a foreign country. Secondly, her book doesn’t say that.
what does that even mean
@@jamesbroughton4706 It means she is more loyal to her Quran instead of the country.
sux to be you then
cant say i blame her your leaders arnt even for your country theyre robbing you all blind @@blackman4861
Youre suppose to be an American Govt official. Act like it or leave and stop with the jibberish
Are those Israeli politicians in congress acting american?
She likes the sound of her own voice and wants to look like a big deal.
Hey! She’s got 7 brother-husband mouths to feed!
🤣🤣😂
Umm..🤔 “Conflict of interest” You’re a congresswoman in The United State Of America. I’m confused? I don’t believe she’s fit to continue as a congresswoman; not stable and trusted. She Should resign immediately
I am a Somalilander and she has hate towards Somaliland who gained independent from Britian on the 26 of June 1960s, simply because we are democratic self proclaim nation who are so different to 'Somalia the failed state"
One day hopefully the world will recognize Somaliland's independence
There is no such thing as Somaliland just a pipe dream and false hopes because there is no grounds for "Somaliland" to become its own country because we are the same people, same ancestry, same ethnicity, same language, and same religion. Literally no valid reason to separate.
The USA was a nation of Christian Europeans with one shared culture. If you keep importing the third world the US will become a third world country.
True. The demographics of our country is purposely being changed.
😂😂😂😂
@@ThomasDOsborn_1999 Do you think it's funny that the US is filling up with third world poverty. You won't find it funny.

Violation of her oath of office. Deport the traitor.
What is wrong with people In Minnesota that they vote in Omar?
A nation deserves what it elects.
Obama flooded her district with somolian imagrants and we've already seen how much she cheated to get elected.
But 90% of her voters are Somalian and can not speak English, she was caught offering some of them $200 per votes too.. our congress does not have a back bone to kick this woman out
She is supported and voted for by a mostly Somali immigrant community in Minneapolis. She is by no means supported by most Minnesotans. But we do not vote in her district.
@@jeanmccreight3809 unfortunately we can not
@@jeanmccreight3809…so, you’re saying that community is larger than the whole state of Minnesota???
This laday should be designed a long time ago. Useles.
You cannot shame the shameless, or disgrace the disgraceful.
What is she still doing in congress???
Representing Somalia's interests from within the U.S. government. Keep up Pepper 😁
Disgraceful
The invasion from within, they say or is it just the Art of War that some say.
As someone not even from US I think its high time Americans do something about this whole mess
I'm a Republican and I don't think anything is wrong with what she said. I'm not a fan of hers, but she didn't say she was putting Somalia's interests above U.S. interests...she just said, she's going to help Somalia all she can. I mean, we help Israelites all we can. We've sent our sons and daughters to war to help Iraqis' We've sent out best sons and daughters to help Afghanis. What's wrong with her trying to help Somalians? As usual, the MEDIA is trying to turn her words into something they are not. They labeled her words, "Somalia First" words. That's ridiculous. She didn't say that at all.
Somalia is 6 different countries right now, gotta establish which one is the real one before claiming territory 😂
That matters not at all...what does matter is her betrayal to the U.S.
Only one is legitimate and represented in the UN, there is no other entity that claims to be a state.
The only other entity is Somaliland which is what she is fighting against.
She needs to go to jail
This explains why she said Jewish congressmen had dual loyalties, she was projecting.
Or she was simply calling them out for what they were. Just because she represents her nation of origin doesn’t mean that what she said about them is untrue.
I confused, was she voted in to represent American?
Why did you NOT show the whole video to put more context behind her "Muslim" and "Somalia" First Policies?
She didn't say Somali and Muslim first, she just mentioned being Somali and Muslim. Propagandists added fake translations she didn't say she was "first" anything
@@rise3987 lol, she sworn in the Qur'an and what does Qur'ran says about infidels and secular countries like USA? DEATH!
Ilhan you are in wrong congress go to Mogadisho this is not Somalia congress.
Sedition, Treason...she deserves what the Constitution mandates for her actions. Restore the Republic.
That translation is wrong
Fifth column , deport now!
TRUMP 2024
How come she never gave a passionate speech like this when it comes to America?
Who could have guessed this would happen.
Never forget Black Hawk Down
Thinking the samething.
She should have been out after “some people did something” rant. Anyone surprised by US flag burned in the heart on NYC yesterday?
I don’t like Ilhan, but the “some people did something” was taken out of context. She was basically saying innocent Muslims shouldn’t have to deal with stuff because of terrorists. Instead of saying terrorists she said some people did something, which was definitely not the right wording. It was the one thing I’ll defend her on.
Does anyone have a link to the entire speech with an English translation? I'm unable to find it.
So she is representing her motherland in our Congress?
That might be the most annoying language I’ve ever heard in my life.
🤮🤮🤮
I thought i was listening to a political candidate in Somalia 😅
She doesn't represent Americans, she has been antisemitic saying its all about the Benjamin's etc why is she still has a job ??
She needs to go
Back to Somali 😂
We shouldn’t have foreigners in elected office. Period!
Go home!
It’s unconscionable that any government representative be allowed to speak to Americans in a foreign language!
She needs to be prosecuted and sent back to Somalia where she can tell them how to run their country.
Look what’s happening in Europe and stop this madness now.
What's happening
Book of peace follower...What do you expect!
Enemy of the state.
You mean dual Isreal citizenship holders in congress??
And whatever happened to her claiming her brother as her husband. These hacks gotta go.
She and whoever send her to congress is a threat to this country, she is not a rep. for this country but rep. for foreign country interest?????
Back to the sand dunes !
Let her go join her fellow skinnies.
Nothing racist about this comment at all...
@@Yoseman1 What’s racist about that! Clearly it’s where her loyalties lie.
@LadieKadie She's much more "American" than an anti-choice dumb redneck who worships the born wealthy, boarding school class.
Get her out
As a US citizen I don't think she can be deported, but charged w treason.
This is probably the least intense part of her speech that is shown here.
Doesn't she realize how lucky she is to live in this country with free speech. If she gave a speech in Somalia about how great America is, they would cut out her tongue.
That's why , it's best to throw this trash out of america to voyage with somalian pirates,
she is not an intellectual woman, why this woman should be a frustration among patriotic american.
They wouldn’t
We saved her, her husband, and her brother whom she illegally married to in minesota, and paid all her expenses to come to USA , they were all on food stamps all their lives, full benefits, food, rent, medical bills and free university, and now she claims USA is last. Shame , shame on our spineless wike gangs in congress that do not expel her, its truly disgusting
She does not have to resign - Calm down people she was talking to American Somali voters. Yes, American voters come in many colors and nationalities not just whites who speak only english
Makes one wonder which side she's on...
Remove her now, enough is enough
IMMORAL AND TRESONUS IS RESON ENUGHT!
Is her brother/husband supporting this?🤔
Except that’s not what she actually said. Unlike people here, I read the actual translation of what she said instead of just reacting emotionally to a bullish!t mistranslation. But hey, that took 5 minutes, which is more effort than most people here can manage. Most people prefer to be led by the nose and told what to think, instead of doing their own research.
If she isn't tried for treason then the people will have to let the government know how we feel.
Legit evil
Why not only have Americans representing this country
