Ilhan Omar calls Tucker Carlson a 'racist fool' in response to on-air attack

Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) called Fox News host Tucker Carlson a "racist fool" in response to his on-air comments about her.

Carlson on Tuesday night said Omar, who came to the U.S. as a refugee, is "living proof" that U.S. immigration laws are "dangerous.
"
"Omar isn't disappointed in America. She's enraged by it," he said. "That should worry you, and not just because Omar is a sitting member of Congress. Ilhan Omar is living proof that the way we practice immigration has become dangerous to this country."

Omar responded by saying that Carlson's remarks did not erase her patriotism.

"Not gonna lie, it's kinda fun watching a racist fool like this weeping about my presence in Congress," Omar tweeted Tuesday. "No lies will stamp out my love for this country or my resolve to make our union more perfect."
