"Democratic Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar said with a straight face on Thursday that it is “f-ed up” for people to remember the late Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk for his good deeds.
"Just one day following his death, Omar accused Kirk on “Zeteo” of being insensitive to school shootings, the death of George Floyd and slavery. She denied the notion that Kirk helped bring civil political discussion on college campuses by openly debating those he disagreed with.
“ 'Charlie was someone who once said guns save lives after a school shooting,” Omar told host Mehdi Hasan. “Charlie was someone who was willing to debate and downplay the death of George Floyd in the hands of Minneapolis Police. Downplayed slavery and what black people have gone through in this country by saying Juneteenth should never exist. And I think there are a lot of people out there talking about him just wanting to have a civil debate. There is nothing more f-ed up than to completely pretend that his words and actions have not been recorded and in existence for the last decade or so.”
“ 'These people are full of shit and it’s important for us to call them out,” Omar continued.
"The far-left congresswoman, who once declared her allegiance to Somalia over the U.S., baselessly alleged that Kirk said empathy should not exist." . . .
