Ilhan Omar: Jihad caucus is “in the business of trying to grab power”

You can’t say the traitors didn’t warn us. As for Pelosi, if you dance with the devil, you will get burnt. The genie is out of the bottle.

No sharing: Ilhan Omar says AOC ‘squad’ is ‘trying to grab’ power from leadership

by Caitlin Yilek Washington Examiner |  | Updated Jul 13, 2019:

Members of New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s “squad” defended their colleague amid a rift with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, without mentioning the top Democrat by name.

“Every single person in Congress has a role. Our role is to take our votes and leadership’s role is to wrangle votes,” Rep. Ilhan Omar, a Democrat from Minnesota, said Saturday at Netroots Nation, an annual conference for liberal activists.

“There’s a constant struggle oftentimes with people who have power about sharing that power. We are not really in the business of asking for the share of that power. We’re in the business of trying to grab that power,” she said.

Rep. Ayanna Pressley, a Democrat from Massachusetts, said, “the people closest to the pain should be the closest to the power” and she’s not focused on “palace intrigue.”

“You have to be unapologetically you,” said Rep. Rashida Tlaib, a Democrat from Michigan.

Ocasio-Cortez called Pelosi “outright disrespectful” and accused her of targeting freshman congresswomen of color after the speaker said the group “didn’t have any following. They’re four people, and that’s how many votes they got.”

Some attendees of a liberal conference booed at least twice when Pelosi’s name was mentioned on Friday.

Now we know!

THERE ARE 4 TRAITORS AMONG US, all in the DemonRat party and IT IS TIME TO REMOVE THEM. So, if we can’t do THAT, let’s vote them out of office or RECALL THEM.

They are unlikely to be voted out of office. Their constituents like them.

While the islamics are busy grabbing power, the Liberal Idiots are busy convincing themselves and everyone else that the islamics are just like us.
In fact, that they’re better, more moral, more devout, more responsible, more virtuous, more reasonable and more deserving of our country than us.
When they could never understand that our government and our society works and succeeds precisely because none of us is “grabbing power.”
They’re poison to us.

What refreshing honesty!

I wouldn’t underestimate the power of Pelosi, if I were her: Nancy is an old snake, but one that’s still got a lot of venom—especialy if she’s wounded.

Ocasio-Cortez called Pelosi “outright disrespectful” and accused her of targeting freshman congresswomen of color

AOC, a well-known colored congresswomen,has been highly disrespectful of others, including Holocaust victims and people testifying before Congress. Strangely enough, that doesn’t stop her from being the first to whine about being “disrespected”.

We are not really in the business of asking for the share of that power. We’re in the business of trying to grab that power,” she said

Say Omar-

Thank you for your frankness. You come from a tribe, and wear an ideology on your head, that is all about power over people. The concept of a loyal opposition is utterly foreign to you, as are the ways of representative democracy, of an independent judiciary, and even government of the people, by the people, and for the people. Indeed, equal justice and liberty for all is an alien notion to you. Yours is a “winner take all” philosophy that has been a fundamental part of Islam from its inception.

Seems to me Omar echos the practices Somali tribes interacting with each other and have turned their poor little country into an ever larger shithole. This is really just Somali “politics” or tribal warfare brought to America.

Don’t worry, it looks like any hope the Demonrats ever had to seriously hinder Trump’s 2020 bid for reelection (impeachment etc) is fast fading into nothingness as the Demonratic party is becoming an absurd spectacle
effectively led by completely deranged, overtly anti American / Antisemitic, idiots!

Trump, with his Twitter ‘Truth offensive’ re the “Jihad Squad”, is playing the Demonrats old guard faction, like a fiddle by putting them in a corner, as he forces them to defend the group of four degenerate organisms and therefore cement the growing irrelevancy perception of the Demonratic party for a growing number of Americans that ARE NOT part of his loyal, steadfast base

Not to mention the torrent of out right devastating news (for Demonrats) that is expected to unfold with in the next month or two re the REAL ‘Russian collusion’, or the still ongoing!! coup against a dully elected president!!

Trump is right, send these vermin Tliab, Omar and Cortez back to fix their own countries. He should help Pelosi to remove these invaders from office. Omar committed fraud (married her brother) to get into the country, so she has no right to be in Congress.

The “squad” has shoved Pelosi and Schumer aside,and they are the face of the Commiecrat Party,and Trump will not let the voters forget that. If he is successful, I look forward to an overwhelming victory in 2020.

I have said many times that immigrants should not be allowed to hold possisions of power in the country they elect to live in when they leave their own, because as you can see here, they have there own agenda in play, not the interest of the country or its people, the same in the UK with muslims demanding halal meat for all in schools and sharia law. I have also said many times if the country you choose to live in does not provide what you feel you need, or you feel you need to change that country or abuse the indigenous people in that country, then the country is not for you, time to move on.

Four horses-asses of jihad.. Omar should be sent back to Somalia.. She loves it so much, she should go back and help out there..She wouldn’t get the time of day there because she’s a woman…

Pelosi is now knowing what it’s like to get kicked by your own people…. So much for her holding power in the Dem party..
