Rep. Ilhan Omar on Saturday condemned her GOP colleagues' inaction following the recent publication by Rep. Lauren Boebert of an anti-Muslim video in which the Colorado Republican lies about the Somali-American lawmaker being mistaken for a suspected suicide bomber inside the U.S. Capitol.
"These anti-Muslim attacks aren't about my ideas but about my identity and it's clear," Omar (D-Minn.) tweeted.
Addressing House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.), she added that "your silence speaks volumes."

(3,703 posts)Republican representatives, perhaps with guns, avoiding the metal detectors are the most likely to shoot-up half the Congress.
They prove they can not be trusted to follow rules, laws and common sense. That team regularly threatens 2nd-amendment violence.
