Blacklisting and intimidation just before an Election... how very Hitlerian of DJT.

This woman doesn't have a strong opponent in this election, does she?

A Hail Mary from a doomed MAGA. Red meat for orange dogs.

It all suggests that Trump will attempt to run wild with the midterms. Buckle up.

I hope the agents thoroughly investigated her panty drawer.

Visitor describing herself is very amusing.

Whats odd is I always assumed they were a man.

Watching this on Steve Lookner's Agenda Free TV. This seems to be only going on at Omar's DC home. I'm not sure what that means. High strangeness, indeed.

Oh, good... now Mavis is going to supply the proof that Evidence was planted.

Or not, right?

"I'm not sure what that means"

I know exactly what it means.

The mid-term and accountability is coming and Trumpy and his co-conspirators are getting desperate.

Desperate to hold on to power for the sake of power so that they continue to abuse that power.

Lookner just now reiterated that there is no indication that her Minneapolis home is likewise being searched. Wouldn't that be the usual protocol if it were a broad search? It seems they are looking for something fairly specific related to that particular property.

I'd wager they're on a witch hunt desperately looking for anything to pin her with.

Ilhan Omar has been on Trump's hit list ever since her learned her name.

Let's see a link for that, bozo. Memes don't count.

She was 12 years old when she came here after being in a refugee camp from the age of 5. She was naturalized as a result of her father being naturalized when she was 17.

They are claiming she committed fraud by marrying her brother to get her green card. Can we say "witch hunt"? I knew you could.

Squirrel! Where are the Epstein files?

And Visitor once again proving what a buffoon he is.

#19 Isn't the popular story that "she married her brother"
in order to facilitate his immigration status, not hers?

They are trying to find anything they can to justify revoking her US citizenship.

Destroying Omar or getting her tossed from the country would be a huge win for maga just before the midterms.

But.. I still don't think this is THE October Surprise.

So.. Stand back and stand by and keep your powder dry and choose your targets carefully!

Nazi germany?

"Although Adolf Hitler had been appointed Chancellor in January 1933, the Nazi Party (NSDAP) did not yet hold absolute control. To secure an absolute majority in the Reichstag, the Nazi regime orchestrated a campaign to suppress, criminalize, and silence political opponents."

"... a campaign to suppress, criminalize, and silence political opponents."

Interesting how history (and definitions) are rhyming with this more recent rwing authoritarian white nationalist party.

Her father was a warlord and should have been executed and not given the gift of US citizenship. And she married her brother. And she hates America.
