Nancy Mace Targets Ilhan Omar for Fictitious Hate Speech
"The two then became embroiled in a Twitter , and Mace went with her classic anti-immigration rhetoric, tweeting at Omar: "If you celebrate murder, maybe Somalia can take you back." (Omar was in Somalia and became a in 2000.) Omar clapped back , saying, "I know you aren't well or smart but I hope someone can explain to you that there isn't a correlation between my committee assignments and deportation.""
"Mace : "We would love to see you deported back to Somalia next." Omar: "Would love to see you get the help you need next. You belong in rehab , not Congress." (Unfortunately for all of us, Mace is gunning for neither-and is instead to be South Carolina's governor as a "Trump in high heels.") Between her 2 accounts Nancy Mace has posted/reposted about Ilhan Omar more than 75 times."
Rep. Nancy Mace pushed to censure Rep. Ilhan Omar, claiming Omar made comments Mace could not quote. Omar stated she never made the alleged comments and noted Mace's resolution contained no direct quotes. Omar said she routinely condemns political violence regardless of ideology. Mace used anti-immigration rhetoric on Twitter, telling Omar "If you celebrate murder, maybe Somalia can take you back" and later calling for her deportation. Omar replied with insults and denial of correlation between committee assignments and deportation. Mace has posted about Omar over 75 times, often sharing conspiracies and calls for censure, removal, and deportation, and some GOP representatives split on a related roll-call vote.
