Somali-born Democratic Representative Ilhan Omar had previously called Republicans “full of sh*t” for lionizing the late Charlie Kirk US President Donald Trump has slammed Democratic lawmaker Ilhan Omar as “scum” after she narrowly escaped a censure vote in the House of Representatives for making disparaging remarks about slain conservative activist Charlie Kirk. Trump also brought up unsubstantiated rumors of her marrying her brother in order to become a US citizen.Omar, who emigrated from Somalia, is the first naturalized US citizen from Africa to serve in Congress. She represents Minnesota’s 5th District and is part of the so-called ‘squad’ of progressive left-wing Democrats that frequently clash with Republicans.After Kirk’s assassination, she accused Republicans of being “full of sh*t” for praising him as a civil debater and suggested his “hateful rhetoric” was what got him killed. Omar called it “effed up” to claim that Kirk “just wanted to have a civil debate.”Her remarks drew swift condemnation from conservatives, who accused Omar of inciting more division and pointing out that Kirk had built his platform on engaging in discussions with students across the country about politics, religion, and social issues.

On Wednesday, Omar survived the motion by a single vote, 214–213, after four Republicans sided with Democrats to defeat it.Omar has rejected the accusations, saying she was among the first to condemn Kirk’s killing. A spokesperson said she had “explicitly expressed her sympathies and prayers” to his family and condemned the assassination.
