Democrat Ilhan Omar (D-MN) believes the US of America is changing into “one of many worst international locations” on the planet.
Omar made the remarks throughout an interview printed on Democracy Now!’s YouTube final week. She started talking about latest actions of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and legislation enforcement’s responses to the anti-ICE riots, asserting “we’re within the midst of the creation of a police state.”
“The place, you realize, you will have masked armed males who’re in plain garments which are snatching individuals off the streets, unwilling to determine themselves. You might have the navy being deployed in our streets. My God, that is America,” she mentioned.
“You might have states rights being disregarded. So, you realize, the constitutional disaster that’s being created in entrance of our eyes, and the identical week the place we’ve got a president who has deployed the navy who’re educated to kill our enemies, not People, however our enemies, are in our streets. It’s the identical week that we’re going to have a navy parade,” she mentioned referencing the parade celebrating the 250th anniversary of the U.S. Military.
“I imply, I grew up in a dictatorship and I don’t even bear in mind ever witnessing something like that. To have a democracy, a beacon of hope for the world to now be became one of many, you realize, one of many worst international locations, the place the navy are in our streets with none regard for individuals’s constitutional rights whereas our President is spending tens of millions of {dollars} prompting (sic) himself up like a failed dictator with the navy parade,” she continued.

“From L.A. to Rafah, there may be one frequent oppressor — Loss of life to the colonial empire,” Omar’s daughter Isra Hirsi mentioned in a viral Instagram submit praising anti-ICE riots.
