It is a basic principle of American democracy that the government can’t selectively target individuals simply because of their political beliefs or what they say. But that’s exactly what the Trump Administration is doing to Congresswoman Ilhan Omar of Minnesota. To understand why this is so appalling, it’s important to know the facts. Congresswoman Omar came to this country with her father when she was 12 years old. Five years later, her father became a naturalized citizen. If Ilhan had been 18 at the time, she would have had to apply for citizenship separately. But because she was 17, she became a naturalized citizen automatically. Congresswoman Omar went on to graduate from college, work as a community organizer, become the first Somali-American legislator elected to public office in the U.S., and win a seat in Congress. There, she has been one of the Trump Administration’s fiercest critics, which has led the president to repeatedly single her out as someone who he believes does not belong in this country. Now the Administration is actively trying to deport Congresswoman Omar, seemingly based solely on the unsubstantiated theory that she was actually 18 when her father was naturalized, and therefore is not a citizen. Federal agents have raided her home, confiscated personal records, and seized her phone — all to try and uncover a nonexistent smoking gun from 20 years ago that will somehow make their case. Think about that. The full weight of the federal government is being brought down on a law-abiding elected official because she has dared to criticize the president. And it’s not the first time this has happened. Under President Trump, the Justice Department has repeatedly gone after those he considers his political enemies — from the Attorney General of New York, to the former head of the FBI, to members of the Federal Reserve. In those cases, the prosecutions either stalled or were dismissed for having no basis in law, and the same is likely to happen in this case. But not before Congresswoman Omar’s life has been turned upside down, her legal bills have piled up, and she’s been forced to spend time fighting unsubstantiated charges instead of serving the people of Minnesota. The fact that any president, or any administration, is willing to engage in such transparent efforts to intimidate someone should outrage all Americans, regardless of how they feel about Congresswoman Omar’s political views. Because if this becomes the new normal, there’s no reason to believe it will stop with her — or that future presidents, in either party, won’t do the same.

I deal with a lot of black female receptionists. They outright ignore you when you walk in. Won’t even look at you. They’ll be watching some obnoxious video on black TikTok. They’ll be FaceTiming someone, and even arguing with them. They will immediately inject conflict as soon as you walk in too. I’ve gotten into so many altercations with them because of these kinds of encounters. There was even one time when a black woman purposely locked me in a facility because of a dispute we were having. She was terminated after doing so. One of them pulled the race card and said “i aint with that racist shit” after i asked for their name so i could report them. I have many stories about the many ways ive been in an altercation with black women. Black women are easily the worst life form on earth.

You can acknowledge a tragedy without blaming Republicans or treating the Second Amendment like a typo. I don’t have every answer, but “take guns from people who didn’t commit the crime” isn’t a convincing one.

Are you saying that we should ban pump action shotguns?

If you have a full cart and someone behind you has just 2 items, do you let them go first? 🤔

Guns are not the problem. Mental illness is the problem.

Truck guns are a concept where dumb people prepare for an imaginary and unlikely scenario while engaging in massive cope that they will not experience a very real and common one.

I mean this is just outrageous 😭😭

Did you know abortions kill roughly 430–500 times more kids than guns do, according to CDC data on firearm deaths? Actually abortion is. Guns don’t kill people. Humans do. Mentally sick humans.

Good guys with guns will always win the day. Criminals will never respect “gun-free” zones. I don’t know how many examples we need to have before people start realizing this.

This is such a wild take. A good guy with a gun, killed a bad guy with a gun. We don’t have a gun problem in America. We have a mental health problem in America. Gun free zones near schools are huge targets. Invest in security for schools. Did you know abortions kill roughly 430–500 times more kids than guns do, according to CDC data on firearm deaths? Democrats don’t care about children. They only care about confiscation of our 2A by all means necessary. If you truly cared about kids, you would stop murdering them in the womb.

No gun I own is a weapon of war unless you declare war on me, then even my revolvers are weapons of war.

What can one US dollar buy today? Potatoes around $0.90–$1.00 per pound

That Tesla demonstration was one of the most amazing things I've ever seen in my life, and there's leftists, who couldn't even change a tire, calling it nothing - 😂

I wonder what medications the shooter was on this time?
