New York Post stirs Ilhan Omar controversy with 9/11 cover featuring out of context quote
Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., on Wednesday urged fellow lawmakers to condemn a Fox News host and a Republican congressman for what she called “dangerous incitement” after they accused her of downplaying the 9/11 terror attacks.
The comments were picked up this week by conservative media outlets when Mohammad Tawhidi — a self-described “imam of peace” who has “dedicated his life to ideologically tackling the spread of Islamic extremism” — tweeted a 19-second clip of Omar’s 20-minute speech. Ronna McDaniel, chairwoman of the Republican National Committee, also tweeted the clip. She declared that Omar is “anti-American.” During a segment discussing Omar’s comments on Wednesday’s “Fox & Friends,” co-host Brian Kilmeade said, “You have to wonder if she’s an American first.”“I didn’t intend to question whether Rep. Omar is an American,” he tweeted. “I am questioning how any American, let alone a United States Congresswoman, could downplay the 9/11 attacks.
