    Whether it's Trump (whose emotionally-manipulative video clip misrepresenting her 9/11 comment is especially egregious) or Chuck Schumer (who likened her to neo-Nazis), Omar is a convenient bipartisan scapegoat for politicians to deflect from their own hypocrisies and failures

        I don't think it's so much scapegoating as simply shutting down and deligitimizing anything other than the typical craven neoliberal warloving moneyguzzling rightwingnutjobloving narrative.

        I think it's scapegoating, deflecting, and vote-getting, and a really offensive use of 9/11 by the leadership of both major parties.

        Well said Mike. Its a ridiculous stretch. But reading the responses its insane how many MAGAs you have regularly following you. Of course they only agree with you if you confirm the propaganda they hear on the right wing astroturf machine.

        Just like democrats only agree with him when he confirms the propaganda they hear on the Left wing AstroTurf machine. Weird how that works.

        They all rushed in to defend the royal Clinton child, but now Omar gets barely a triangulated tweet.

        And to deflect reflection on the fact that it was US foreign policy that led to 9/11! As Malcolm X said in another context: The chickens came home to roost.

        That's a fact. But most Americans don't get it. They're so superior in being so ill-informed. They love being lied to. So they never know the truth. They believe these people came from nowhere to do harm for no reason. That's why we never can correct the problem.

        Please don't pretend she's been misrepresented, you're too smart to play dumb. She knows exactly what she's saying & to whom she's saying it. She's a propagandistic opportunist making a name for herself & capitalizing on her own rhetoric. Her district is not benefiting with her

        Exactly. People like her choose to say inflammatory things, then try to control the consequences of their poor choice. Choose with consequences in mind. She might have done that, meaning she's manipulating those who are emotionally rushing to her support now.

        I just can't stand all this holiness of 9/11 that Americans hold onto. We have gone across the globe terrorizing & slaughtering innocent people in sovereign countries . We need to know the truth to correct it. But we are so brainwashed we don't know the truth.
