Omar recently gave a speech to Americans in Minnesota in their Somali language, claiming that they are ‘Somali first and Muslim second.’
Ilhan Omar, an American congresswoman, tells Somalians that she is Somalian first, Muslim second, and… [no, American wasn’t even mentioned].
Oh, and she says that her primary job in Congress is to protect Somali interests. pic.twitter.com/ex5IlkAkR2

Omar has a long history of championing Somalia and identifying herself with them primarily. She openly boasts her close relationship with the Somali president and calls Somalia her country despite being a US elected official.
Rep. Ilhan Omar refers to the President of Somalia as "our president"
"We have a special relationship. I call him uncle and he calls me his girl."
"Somalia is our home. It is our heart. We always think about Somalia." pic.twitter.com/yxHqyk35OQ

FLASHBACK: Ilhan Omar accidentally lets slip where her allegiance lies…
Referencing Somalia, she says “my country” before quickly correcting herself and saying “the country I came from.” pic.twitter.com/VqRRiLBqik

She is also on the record making light of 9/11 and minimizing what happened.
Remember when Ilhan Omar said “some people did something” in reference to 9/11? Ilhan is a terrorist sympathizer whose allegiance is with Somalia.
Republicans should do something and expell her from Congress. #ExpellOmar pic.twitter.com/ogs96H0Y8m

Many commentators and politicians are speaking out and calling for her to be expelled from Congress, citing her remarks as treason. Many have pointed out that the kinds of remarks she has made repeatedly indicate that she is breaking her oath of office and the commitments she had to make to the US when she sought citizenship here. Gov. Ron DeSantis even demanded that she be expelled from Congress AND deported from America over these remarks.
If you want to contact newly elected speaker Mike Johnson about this issue and demand that Omar is expelled from Congress, X account Libs of TikTok shares his phone number in a recent tweet:
Hi @SpeakerJohnson, why hasn’t there been a vote yet to expell Ilhan Omar from Congress? She’s a traitor to America. You shouldn’t allow this to continue. She’s making a mockery of our great nation by holding this position of power.
