Ilhan Omar (D-MN) claimed that President Donald Trump won a second term due to the growing \u201cstupidity\u201d of both American voters and members of Congress, during her latest appearance with disgraced former MSNBC host Mehdi Hasan. The \u2018Squad\u2019 Democrat is now facing backlash online for suggesting that Trump\u2019s re-election in November was the result of a less intelligent electorate\u2014a sentiment she claims is reinforced daily through her interactions with colleagues and constituents.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"0\" data-end=\"255\">\u201cThese people are just idiots,\u201d Omar said, shaking her head while speaking with host Ari Melber. Smiling, she added, \u201cI\u2019m at the point where it\u2019s become hard to have an intellectual debate with any of these people because the level of stupidity they are displaying every single day is frankly embarrassing, not just in Congress but as Americans.\u201d<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"0\" data-end=\"138\">The far-left\u2019s inability to understand President Trump\u2019s appeal has been a recurring theme in the 2024 election and its aftermath. In Minnesota\u2014the state Omar migrated to\u2014Trump narrowed the gap against former Vice President Kamala Harris, reducing her lead from 7 points in 2020 to just 4 points. Trump even managed to flip the home county of Gov. Tim Walz, Harris\u2019 running mate.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"431\" data-end=\"474\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\">But for Omar, none of that seems to matter. \u201cThe fact that these people are allowed to say the most ridiculous things tells you that the dumbing of the United States has arrived, because how else did we get the Trump presidency again?\u201d she asked Hasan. Matt Walsh, a conservative influencer, criticized a Minnesota Democrat for disparaging the country that welcomed her after she fled war-torn Somalia as a teenager.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-video\"><span class=\"mejs-offscreen\">Video Player<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"mep_0\" class=\"mejs-container mejs-container-keyboard-inactive wp-video-shortcode mejs-video\" tabindex=\"0\" role=\"application\" aria-label=\"Video Player\">\n<div class=\"mejs-inner\">\n<div class=\"mejs-mediaelement\"><video id=\"video-14480-1_html5\" class=\"wp-video-shortcode\" src=\"https:\/\/usajournal.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/OmarIdiots.mp4?_=1\" preload=\"metadata\" width=\"788\" height=\"443\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"><\/video><\/div>\n<div class=\"mejs-layers\">\n<div class=\"mejs-overlay mejs-layer mejs-overlay-play\">\n<div class=\"mejs-overlay-button\" tabindex=\"0\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Play\" aria-pressed=\"false\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"mejs-controls\">\n<div class=\"mejs-button mejs-playpause-button mejs-play\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"mejs-time mejs-currenttime-container\" role=\"timer\" aria-live=\"off\"><span class=\"mejs-currenttime\">00:00<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"mejs-time-rail\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"mejs-time mejs-duration-container\"><span class=\"mejs-duration\">00:33<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"mejs-button mejs-volume-button mejs-mute\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"mejs-button mejs-fullscreen-button\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\u201cIt continues to amaze me that Ilhan Omar has such contempt for our country. She comes from Somalia, where the average IQ is 68 (likely due at least in part to the prevalence of in-breeding in her culture). It also consistently ranks as one of the most violent and dangerous and poorest countries on Earth. Yet she looks at our country with snobbish disdain,\u201d he wrote on X.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"0\" data-end=\"241\">Part of Omar\u2019s appearance on the left-leaning network was ostensibly to push back against resurfaced allegations that she legally married her brother to circumvent federal immigration laws and help him stay in the U.S. A member of Minnesota\u2019s Somali community recently came forward, claiming that Omar concealed her marriage to her \u201ceffeminate\u201d brother by opting for a Catholic priest to officiate the ceremony\u2014rather than a Muslim officiant, as she had done in her first marriage.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"525\" data-end=\"722\">Omar has repeatedly dismissed these accusations as \u201cbaseless\u201d and \u201cabsurd,\u201d accusing Republicans and her political opponents of engaging in racism and Islamophobia by promoting the claim. However, last month, The New York Post reported that the FBI has launched an investigation into Omar\u2019s marriage to Ahmed Nur Said Elmi, with a \u201ctrove of documents\u201d reportedly handed over to federal agents.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"949\" data-end=\"1218\">If evidence confirms immigration fraud, the case would be referred to U.S. Customs and Immigration Enforcement (ICE). Under federal law, falsifying a marriage to evade immigration laws carries a penalty of up to five years in prison and a $250,000 fine.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1220\" data-end=\"1419\">Earlier this month, Rep. Brandon Gill (R-TX) circulated a petition calling for Omar\u2019s deportation, citing her recent advice to illegal immigrants on how to evade capture by ICE. \u201cAmerica would be a better place if Ilhan Omar were deported back to Somalia,\u201d Gill wrote in an email to supporters.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rep.
