We never solved any problems with AUMF, we left 4,000-plus, maybe even 4400 dead, and over 60,000 who came back injured in some form and the war never ended.”

"At this, Rep. Omar burst out laughing out loud, and turned to Rep. Tlaib, who was also laughing. This led to an outcry by the public on social media, with many rallying against Rep. Omar.

"Kayleigh McEnany tweeted; “How low will Ilhan Omar go? Watch her giggle and joke as Rep. Lee talks about American troops who lost their lives in Iraq. Omar has a history of documented anti-Semitism and now this? Nancy???”

"Heather Wolf tweeted; “Anti-Semitic Rep Omar doesn’t care about Americans. It’s very clear by her disgusting laughs at Sheila Jacksons mention of US casualties in the Iraq war. It’s shocking that we have an enemy of the ppl in Congress. Omar should be Expelled & stripped of her Security Clearance.' ”. . .
