with that front page needs to be fired. That is blatantly calling for her assassination.

I am horrified over this.

I want to cheer her on as a young female Muslim in Congress, but I wish she would be sensitive to how her comments will be perceived.
She would do her causes more good by building bridges and being careful, rather than being a one term congresswoman.

I have friends that talk in dismissive ways and often that dismissiveness results from exposure and soft beliefs in unproven conspiracies or fake news. Was the phrase “someone did something” Intended to point to some particular alternative narrative about 9-11? I saw the video clip and I thought it was an odd way to describe it.

They spent more time on the Omar story than they did on Bill Barr's blatant, open corruption. That ditz, Savannah Guthrie topped it off by showing that front page. Fuck them.
