We can't hold Republicans accountable because then they'll feel like victims and try to impeach all the Democrats and *fart noises*

@Ruvan22

On March 23, Omar, who is Somali-American and wears a hijab, said at a Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) banquet that the organization was formed after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks to protect civil rights. "Far too long we have lived with the discomfort of being a second-class citizen, and frankly, I'm tired of it, and every single Muslim in this country should be tired of it," Omar said at the event. "CAIR was founded after 9/11 because they recognized that some people did something and that all of us were starting to lose access to our civil liberties."

Honestly not the best phrasing but it wasn't like she was defending it, she was explaining why it became necessary for Muslim Americans to try to defend themselves afterwards.

The full Quote is more ambiguous. It seems more likely that "some people did something" is referring to the islamophobic backlash reaction to 9/11 and not 9/11 itself.

Just for perspective, let's see what Trump had to say about 9/11:
"Donald, you have one of the landmark buildings down in the Financial District, 40 Wall Street," said Alan Marcus, a WWOR analyst. "Did you have any damage, or did you what's happened down there?"
Trump's response seemed to focus less on the deadly attack than on the fact that the World Trade Center was no longer the tallest building in the area.
"Well, it was an amazing phone call," Trump said. "I mean, 40 Wall Street actually was the second tallest building in downtown Manhattan, and it was actually before the World Trade Center the tallest, and then when they built the World Trade Center it became known as the second tallest, and now it's the tallest."
He continued: "And I just spoke to my people, and they said it's the most unbelievable sight, it's probably seven or eight blocks away from the World Trade Center, and yet Wall Street is littered with two feet of stone and brick and mortar and steel."
https://www.businessinsider.com/ trump-september-11-interview-tallest-building-manhattan-2017-9

Some other weird stuff he's said: https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2019/09/12/trumps-fuzzy-vision-sept-attacks/
And there's this:
Trump, Nov. 21, 2015: Hey, I watched when the World Trade Center came tumbling down. And I watched in Jersey City, New Jersey, where thousands and thousands of people were cheering as that building was coming down. Thousands of people were cheering. So somethings going on. Weve got to find out what it is.
https://www.factcheck.org/2016/08/trumps-revised-911-claim/

For the record, I don't think the accusations against Omar are equivocal to the stuff Trump's said.

I like your interpretation of it, too.

The ambiguity was poorly placed -_-

No more awful than when a Democrat drone strikes civilians, or when a Democrat tomahawk missles a pharmacy that treats poor people (Obama and Clinton).

Politicians do terrible shit all the time. Including the ones you vote for.

Except that they would gladly have taken the mistakes back

MTG doubles down like a bad gambler and legit wants her fellow American congressmen and women dead. She supports capitol riots and basically wants to turn the US into an autocratic state with Trumpy at the head by dissolving the foundations of the republic.

Trump didn't start any of this shit

He's a sympton. Not a small sympton but still a sympton of the problem where you tell people "Reality doesn't matter, believe whatever you want"

she's basically shunned at this point, with the least amount of power available to her. I'm sure internally she's pretty much pushed to the side

i'm guessing the RNC will run a more agreeable candidate against her in her district when she's up for reelection

Only 5 voted to impeach Trump.

Anyway the DOJ should pursue charges against Greene. If she's convicted she'll be expelled automatically via the 14th.
