Ilhan Omar REALLY Not Happy About Removal From House Foreign Affairs Committee

In case you hadn’t already heard, Rep. Ilhan Omar is being removed from the House Foreign Affairs Committee. And she’s really pissed.

Kevin McCarthy’s purely partisan move to strip me, @RepAdamSchiff, and @RepSwalwell from our committees is not only a political stunt, but also a blow to the integrity of our democratic institutions and a threat to our national security.

As the only African born, not being on the Africa subcommittee is not just an elimination of a unique voice but an elimination of all the voices that have never been heard on a committee on the continent.

It’s racist, xenophobic and discriminatory.

Same energy:

Actually, it has the same energy as all the times an antisemitic Muslim woman has accused those criticizing her of antisemitism as being Islamophobic. Like Ilhan herself has done.

No Ilhan. You need to take responsibility for your own words and actions.

Also, I really don’t think your removal is “a threat to [the USA’s] national security.” The opposite actually.
