Ilhan Omar’s appalling, Somalia-first comments are a slap in the face to the Minnesotans she was elected to serve and a direct violation of her oath of office. She should resign in disgrace.t.co/O3lAEGlokt — Tom Emmer (@GOPMajorityWhip) January 29, 2024
In a hilarious twist, it turns out that Republican Congressman Tom Emmer, the man claiming Ilhan Omar is doing a very dirty deed by saying she’s fighting for Somalia, is a major recipient of funding from the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC).
AIPAC is an Israeli lobbying group that demands that American politicians act in the explicit interests of Israel before those of the United States. The Jewish group pays politicians to promote this agenda.
On opensecrets.org, we see that AIPAC was the biggest donor for the 2023- 2024 campaign year of the Minnesota Congressman.
For the record, I am opposed to Omar using her position in Congress to assist a foreign country. I am opposed to any politician putting a foreign country above America. However, there are a lot more people promoting the interests of Israel than of Somalia.
In fact, America’s entire foreign policy revolves around the question “what is best for Israel?” The idea that a man who is being paid to promote the interests of this most parasitic of nations would have the nerve to attack Omar for statements about Somalia is beyond the pale.
Emmer is calling for an ethics investigation into Omar. Following this logic, every Congressman who receives money from AIPAC should be subject to an ethics investigation.
It is simple common sense that they should all be required to register as foreign agents.
