1. Karma! Here's another one for your list.

For what goes around, comes around.

And by the way, Marjie! Ilhan Omar is a US Citizen. She cannot be deported. The only way she can be removed from Congress, as with George Santos, is for a majority of US House to expel her and that is NOT going to happen. She can be UNELECTED come November.

You Marjie, have NO proof Omar is an agent of Somalia.

26. Us citizen....

If naturalized, there are rare instances where your citizenship can be revoked, and you can be deported.

Usually it involves obtaining your citizenship under false statement, but there are other conditions as well.

Just pointing that out. Not advocating it.

Not that green head understands the law let alone nuances.....

2. Fuck Three Names

Or as a friend used to say, why wish something good on her? UN-fuck her.

[Jerry2144]

25. I don't think I could

When I see her, and hear how stupid she is, I get a soft-off.

3. If justice were proportional, then Marge would be jailed for life

4. Treasonous statements?

Would calling for a “national divorce” qualify?

[AllaN01Bear]

9. what about her boss trying to overthrow the legitimate gvt of usa and not leaving the

white house when he had to because prez biden was incoming.? take that lady.

[Kid Berwyn]

5. Confederate Klanswoman said wut?

“We need a national divorce. We need to separate by red states and blue states and shrink the federal government,” Greene, R-Ga., said in the tweet. “Everyone I talk to says this. From the sick and disgusting woke culture issues shoved down our throats to the Democrat’s traitorous America Last policies, we are done.”

8. wtf is this about?

Hoping for a short answer

[AZSkiffyGeek]

10. Omar made a statement a few days ago

That her loyalty was to Somalia first, and Islam second.

[onethatcares]

13. thanx

i missed that

[WhiskeyGrinder]

15. That is not what she said.

[Nevilledog]

17. They're lying about what Omar said

Republicans smeared Ilhan Omar over a faulty translation. Here’s what she really said.

[obamanut2012]

18. She did not say that

Why are you stating she did???

[underpants]

19. Bad translation

Republican lawmakers and commentators questioned U.S. Rep. Ilhan Omar’s allegiance to the United States — even calling for her to be deported — over a video clip with an inaccurate translation of her remarks from Somali to English.


Omar told the audience that Somalia would remain united, and that she would use her influence to keep it that way.

Social media posts have asserted Omar said they are “people who know they are Somalians first, Muslims second.”

Neither of the Reformer’s translations show she said “Somalians first, Muslims second.”

24. Thanks for the update

I was going off the Somali ambassador's tweet about the statement.

[emulatorloo]

22. Faulty translation, see below.

[hlthe2b]

36. No. She did not. RWers used a "mistranslation" (accidentally, of course)...

[TwilightZone]

11. Serving as a foreign agent isn't treason...

Unless we're officially at war with the foreign country.

Why am I not surprised that she doesn't have the first clue?

[Initech]

31. And that second tweet is from a far right news blog. It should be removed here.

[Freethinker65]

12. MTG is not the one to introduce such a resolution

MTG has actively sided with the failed insurrectionists against the US government (treasonous at same level) both in public for media attention, and at events when trolling for votes and donations.

Omar should either outright apologize, or explain that saying she doesn't prioritize American interests over those of her birth country was merely said to energize potential voters and affirm that she would voice their concerns.

She was pandering and, IMO, went way too far.

[Autumn]

14. Fuck that three toed bimbo.

16. Nothing better to do I guess

Except for getting owned AGAIN

27. Where the hell would they deport her to?

That fool does know she’s an American doesn’t she? God what a maroon.

[Walleye]

28. "Treasonous statements" are not a thing in the US Constitution

And I’m sure she hides behind a speech and debate clause every time she says something incendiary or slanderous

[malaise]

29. She's so jealous of AOC

That is all

[Initech]

30. Go eat the steamest bag of rancid dog shit, Marjorie!

God what a fucking piece of shit that woman is.

[Johonny]

32. Deported?

We can do that? I mean, Biden could just send MTG back to hell? That's allowed?

[limbicnuminousity]

33. Did she include Hunter Biden's junk in an attachment photo?

Stay classy MTG.

34. Viral Ilhan Omar Speech That Sparked Fury on Right Reportedly a Total Mistranslation

https://www.mediaite.com/news/viral-ilhan-omar-speech-that-sparked-fury-on-right-reportedly-a-total-mistranslation/

House Majority Whip Tom Emmer (R-MN) was one of the main dissenting voices who called on Omar to “resign in disgrace” over her “appalling, Somalia-first comments” that were not just a “slap in the face” to her constituents, but “a direct violation of her oath of office.” Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) called for Omar to be deported and expelled from Congress.

snip-the reporter notes problems with the translation and continues:

For one thing, people from Somalia refer to themselves as Somalis, not “Somalians.” For another, here is the translation provided by the Reformer:

We Somalis are people who love each other. It’s possible that we might sometimes have disagreements but we are also people who can rely on each other. We are people who are siblings. We are people with courage. We are people who know that they are Somali and Muslim. We are people who support each other.

The Reformer article also notes that “[a] devout Muslim like Omar would have faced outrage from the largely Muslim audience had she placed her religion second, according to one translator.”

35. You can not deport a US citizen just because MTG is unhappy

[struggle4progress]

37. Greene hoping she can incite yet another crazy with a hammer?
