You guys are just confused. The premise of Trump's rebuke and advise was neither race nor skin color (there are more than 4 women of colour in senate/congress), but on hatred for America. Someone that hates Jews, eulogizes the Al Qaeda and refuses to disavow them, rallies Muslims against Americans, and raises funds for Muslim Brotherhood affiliated groups, is not fit to have a seat in US congress. Such a person should simply leave the America s/he hates so much. But they won't. They can't. They don't want to. Yet they want to make America be like the same places they or their ancestors left. They want socialism, communism and/or Sharia in the US. But they have failed and will always fail. Ever wondered why the same idiots who are screaming now are the same folks who also hated and despised Kanye West, Candace Owens, Ben Carson?

Ogaga87: Pure comedy....lol. Know one thing, America's military might is second to none, the willingness to protect its citizens even at the expense of the world cannot be underestimated. You keep talking about China & Russia not knowing that Nato or no Nato, the world's foreign currency reserve is in dollars. It is in the best interest of the world to keep the U.S strong and healthy. Trump went against Iran's deal and several Obama era policies because quite frankly they were nonsense! Iran had no intention of stopping its nuclear program and releasing such huge amounts of money only strengthened their resolve to fund terrorism. In Trump's mind countries like Iran & Pakistan will never change their hatred for America and America will never stop trying to crush them, so why give them ammunition to use against the U.S? U.S can give money to Iran but can't release the same money to help minority communities and infrastructure decay in places like Flint Michigan.....Rubbish! Furthermore, you're talking about migrants as if you don't know the U.S has a serious problem. A country in debt of 20 trillion dollars has no business trying to police the world, they have no business encouraging rule breakers and those who make a mockery of their immigration laws. Yes illegal immigrants are part of the problem, everyone knows this but only Trump has the balls to go against political correctness which was determined to ignore the problem. How many of your brothers and sisters have gone into the U.S and stayed illegally, how many more have been denied at the embassy due to Nigerians' bad reputation? Have we forgotten the visa lottery so quickly? Lastly, you thought America's economy would have double the digits? What gave you that impression? The majority of those who voted against Trump did so because they believed he would crash the economy, they foresaw 2 or more wars and overall destruction of America. Those who voted for him expected more jobs, higher stock market and tougher stance against illegal immigrants, so far I would say he's doing a good job keeping his campaign promises. 7 Likes |

JeromeBlack: SINCE YOU LIKE EVIDENCE, READ AND WATCH IT BELOW. Asides the fact you are about to read and watch below, The 4 congresswomen have consistently joined people denigrating the American flag and national anthem and calling them "symbols of oppression". If you hate a country's flag and anthem, then why did you choose to come live in that country? Why then did you decide to stand for elections in that country? As a matter of fact, when Rashida Tlaib was sworn in to congress, at the party she held, she put up Palestinian flags instead of American flag. Was she elected to serve Palestine or America? If you so hate America, then GET OUT! AND GO BACK TO THE COUNTRY YOU LOVE! On Monday, President Donald Trump defended his criticisms of Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) and the far-left “Squad,” and claimed that Omar had praised Al Qaeda, the terrorist organization responsible for the Sep. 11, 2001 attacks. Trump said: I mean, I look at the one — I look at Omar — I don’t know, I never met her. I hear the way she talks about al Qaeda. Al Qaeda has killed many Americans. She said, “You can hold your chest out, you can — when I think of America…huh…when I think of al Qaeda, I can hold my chest out.” When she talked about the World Trade Center being knocked down, “Some people.” You remember the famous “some people.” These are people that, in my opinion, hate our country. … So when — when I hear people speaking about how wonderful al Qaeda is, when I hear people talking about “some people” — “some” people with the World Trade Center — “some people”? No, not “some people.” Much more than “some people.” … And politicians can’t be afraid to take them on. A politician that hears somebody, where we’re at war with al Qaeda, and sees somebody talking about how great al Qaeda is — pick out her statement — that was Omar. How great al Qaeda is — when you hear that — and we’re losing great soldiers to al Qaeda. When you see the World Trade Center gets knocked down, and you see the statements made about the World Trade Center — all the death and destruction — I’ll tell you what: I’m not happy with them. Omar had an opportunity to clear the air, but declined to condemn Al Qaeda (or communism, another alleged association) at the “Squad” press conference on Monday, saying, “I will not dignify [the claim] with an answer.” The president appears to have misinterpreted comments Omar made in 2013, in a video that emerged nearly six months ago (and which was ignored by the mainstream media until now, when it could be used to dispute Trump). As Breitbart News noted in February, the most shocking claim Omar made in the interview with a local Minnesota television program was that U.S. foreign policy was responsible for acts of terrorism such as the Westgate shopping mall terror attack in Nairobi, Kenya, by the Somali terror group Al-Shabaab, who killed 71 people, mostly civilians. Omar also drew a moral equivalence between radical Islamic terror and “the violence that is done [by] the West,” which she said that the U.S. and other countries had “legitimized.” However, Omar did not actually endorse acts of radical Islamic terror, or praise Al Qaeda or other organizations. Instead, she complained that American Muslims were expected to denounce those acts of terror, and that the Arabic names of terror groups were emphasized. In the course of that complaint, she described a class on terrorism that she took at college. Laughing, she described the posture of her professor when he would say the Arabic names of terror groups, saying that “every time the professor said, ‘Al Qaeda,’ he, sort of, like, his shoulders went up.” He did not do the same when describing “the Army,” she said, suggesting the professor was prejudiced. That appears to be the origin of President Trump’s distorted quote that she said, “When I think of al Qaeda, I can hold my chest out.” Omar’s remarks can be seen in the video below at 17:00: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qj_nkzcvJ1w Trump was on firmer ground when he criticized Omar’s recent comments about the 9/11 attacks. In a speech in March to the Los Angeles chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), Omar complained about prejudice against Muslims. She said: “CAIR was founded after 9/11, because they recognize that some people did something, and then all of us were starting to lose access to our civil liberties.” The phrase “some people did something” was widely interpreted as downplaying the severity of the attacks, as well as the role of radical Islam as the motivation. CAIR itself has a disturbing record on radical Islam — particularly in Southern California. As Breitbart News noted: In 2007-8, CAIR was named an unindicted co-conspirator in the terror financing trial of the Holy Land Foundation for Relief and Development. That case, in turn, led the FBI to discontinue its work with the organization. In 2009, a federal judge ruled that the government “produced ample evidence to establish” the ties of CAIR with Hamas, the Palestinian terror organization. The United Arab Emirates labeled CAIR a terrorist organization in 2014 (a decision that the Obama administration opposed). In 2015, CAIR’s Los Angeles director suggested that the U.S. was partly to blame for the San Bernardino terror attack, in which 14 people were killed, due to American foreign policy. CAIR also offered legal assistance to the family of the terrorists who carried out the attack. Still, minimizing or excusing radical Islamic terror is different — morally and factually — from supporting it outright. 1 Like |
