    23 years ago, from a refugee camp in Kenya, my father and I arrived at an airport in Washington DC. Today, we return to that same airport on the eve of my swearing in as the first Somali-American in Congress. #Hope #Ilhan 🙏🏾pic.twitter.com/jVeP3DOipN

        I would not have voted for you because I disagree with your opinion on issues. But I think it is a thing gr8 that you were elected. It makes me proud of OUR country. Welcome to the Nation's Capitol!

        You didn't see the Minnesota 5th district ballot. Ms. Omar was clearly the choice.

        It was wonderful for you to congratulate her on being elected even though you do t agree with her policies. It a shame that Democrats can’t show the same maturity.

        It wasn't wonderful of you to backhanded congratulate someone like this. I wish *you* could show the same maturity you purport to espouse.

        Neat fact: nearly 24 years ago I was a sailor on the USS Belleau Wood during Operation United Shield when we helped evacuate UN and civilian personnel from Somalia. Congratulations on your swearing in! Now go give 'em hell! 👍

        “first Somali-American in Congress”! 🤔 So does that mean you serve both Somalia and the US?!! And why on earth is a “Somali-American in Congress” meeting with Erdogan, even before you were in congress?! Is that what a “Somali-American” usually does?!pic.twitter.com/3GqM5PwMfP

        A sad but very truthful analysis. I pray to God the liberal 'agenda' implodes.
