AOC unloads on Trump after he tells progressive congresswomen to 'go back' to home countries

Rep. Omar admits she may have embellished dramatic story she told to high school students

Minnesota Democrat says she may have flubbed some facts in story meant to showcase racial injustice; reaction from Fox News contributor Deroy Murdock.

New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, fresh from a bitter public spat with House Democrat leaders, unloaded on President Trump Sunday afternoon after he suggested that several unnamed progressive congresswomen "go back" to their own "corrupt" and "crime infested" countries of origin, then "come back and show us how it is done."

"You can't leave fast enough," Trump wrote.

Ocasio-Cortez's fiery Twitter return barrage could be the call to action that unifies a Democrat Party currently divided along establishment and progressive lines, observers said, even as some analysts indirectly blamed House Speaker Nancy Pelosi for laying the groundwork for Trump's remarks.
"Mr. President, the country I 'come from,' & the country we all swear to, is the United States," Ocasio-Cortez said. "But given how you’ve destroyed our border with inhumane camps, all at a benefit to you & the corps who profit off them, you are absolutely right about the corruption laid at your feet."

Ocasio-Cortez, who is of Puerto Rican descent, was born in the Bronx, New York, and raised in suburban Westchester County. Ayanna Pressley, the first black woman elected to the House from Massachusetts, was born in Cincinnati.
Ilhan Omar, the first Somali native elected to Congress and one of its first Muslim women, was born in Somalia but spent much of her childhood in a Kenyan refugee camp as civil war tore apart her home country. Tlaib was born in Detroit.

So interesting to see “Progressive” Democrat Congresswomen, who originally came from countries whose governments are a complete and total catastrophe, the worst, most corrupt and inept anywhere in the world (if they even have a functioning government at all), now loudly......

You are angry because you don’t believe in an America where I represent New York 14, where the good people of Minnesota elected @IlhanMN, where @RashidaTlaib fights for Michigan families, where @AyannaPressley champions little girls in Boston.

She continued: "You are angry because you don’t believe in an America where I represent New York 14, where the good people of Minnesota elected @IlhanMN, where @RashidaTlaib fights for Michigan families, where @AyannaPressley champions little girls in Boston. You are angry because you can’t conceive of an America that includes us. You rely on a frightened America for your plunder. You won’t accept a nation that sees healthcare as a right or education as a #1 priority, especially where we’re the ones fighting for it. Yet here we are."
"But you know what’s the rub of it all, Mr. President?" she concluded." On top of not accepting an America that elected us, you cannot accept that we don’t fear you, either. You can’t accept that we will call your bluff & offer a positive vision for this country. And that’s what makes you seethe."
PELOSI ADMONISHES TWEETING ATTACKS ON FELLOW DEMS: DON'T 'EXPECT US TO THINK THAT THAT IS JUST OK'
Trump specifically invoked Pelosi, D-Calif., in his original comments, writing, "I’m sure that Nancy Pelosi would be very happy to quickly work out free travel arrangements" for the members of Congress to leave the U.S. temporarily.
The president also condemned the congresswomen for "viciously telling the people of the United States" how "the government is to be run." He suggested that they "go back and help fix the totally broken and crime infested places from which they came" before returning home.

Just days earlier, Pelosi had urged junior members of her caucus not to tweet, and had spoken dismissively of the new freshman firebrands.
Pelosi specifically told The New York Times last week that Ocasio-Cortez and Omar, Pressley, and Tlaib "have their public whatever and their Twitter world, but they didn’t have any following. They’re four people, and that’s how many votes they got.”
On Sunday, after Trump's remarks, Pelosi came under renewed scrutiny.

"Make no mistake: Nancy Pelosi’s dogwhistling snipes at @AOC, Ilhan Omar, @RashidaTlaib and @RepPressley helped pave the way for this vicious, racist attack from the president," wrote Washington Post global opinions editor Karen Attiah.
For her part, Pelosi quickly condemned Trump's comments, and said they showed he wanted to make America "white again."

A torrent of others agreed that Trump's remarks were racist, including House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff, D-Calif., Michigan Rep. Justin Amash, and Meghan McCain.
"This is racist," McCain wrote. "And I see Trump people are trying to spin this to just be about Rep. Omar, but we all know that’s a lie. But even if it were just about Rep. Omar, it would still be racist. We don’t tell people we’ve welcomed into this country to “go back.'"
2020 Democrat presidential contender Kamala Harris wrote, "Let's call the president’s racist attack exactly what it is: un-American."
Meanwhile, some conservatives said Trump's comments would likely unite feuding Democrats and strengthen their political position with the 2020 presidential campaign heating up.
For example, Jerry Dunleavy, a reporter at the D.C. Examiner, was one of several commentators who compared Trump to "Leroy Jenkins," the videogame player who, according to viral video legend, charged wildly into the fray and upset his teammates' carefully crafted plan.

But MSNBC analyst Matthew Miller said those concerns were misplaced.
"Spare me the analysis about how Trump’s racist tweets will unite the Democratic Party," he wrote. "Isn’t the relevant question now and forever what the hell Republicans are willing to do about it?"
Matt Wolking, the deputy director of communications for Trump's 2020 reelection campaign, insisted that president was being misinterpreted.
"Anyone who says the president told members of Congress to go back to where they came from is lying," he wrote on Twitter. "He told them to “Then come back and show us how it is done.”
Regardless, Democrats were far more united on Sunday than they were over the weekend. In a highly unusual move Friday night, the official House Democratic Caucus Twitter account ripped into Ocasio-Cortez's chief of staff for his criticism of another Democratic lawmaker -- an astonishing tirade that laid bare the simmering tensions between the freshman congresswoman and her party's leadership.

The caucus’ Twitter account flagged a June 27 tweet by Ocasio-Cortez’s chief of staff, Saikat Chakrabarti, in which he criticized Rep. Sharice Davids, D-Kansas, for her votes on issues to do with the migrant crisis at the border.
HOUSE DEM BLASTS 'JUVENILE' OCASIO-CORTEZ, CHIEF OF STAFF: 'IGNORANCE IS BEYOND BELIEF'
“I don't think people have to be personally racist to enable a racist system. And the same could even be said of the Southern Democrats. I don't believe Sharice is a racist person, but her votes are showing her to enable a racist system,” he tweeted.
On Friday night, the caucus account took aim.
"Who is this guy and why is he explicitly singling out a Native American woman of color?" it said.
"Her name is Congresswoman Davids, not Sharice," the House Democrats added. "She is a phenomenal new member who flipped a red seat blue."



Rep. Rashida Tlaib says Democrats are moving toward impeachment

Many House Democrats are pushing harder to start an impeachment inquiry against President Trump as Senate Republicans vows to crush impeachment attempt.

"Keep Her Name Out Of Your Mouth," it said with interspersed emojis of clapping hands.
Several top Democrats, including Pelosi deputy chief of staff Drew Hammill, retweeted the post.
The tumult came after Ocasio-Cortez accused Pelosi of "singling out" women of color, although she later denied that she was accusing Pelosi of racism.
The spat delighted conservatives, who expressed their glee at the eruption of blue-on-blue infighting. Chakrabarti, meanwhile, fired back and accused the caucus account of taking his tweet out of the context of a conversation where someone else brought up Davids.
Fox News' Adam Shaw and Nick Givas contributed to this report.

The people in their districts need to sign a RECALL petition now and remove all 3 of these idiots from office!

All failed cities full of crime and they want to import more of it!

call the wh 1-202-456-1414--- 1-202-456-1111 my friend live in AZ & it bad - she call & tell Him & tell him to close the Border down & No free Hand out - they come On boat - & they just walk Over she sick of all the BS -

I truly hope she finds a new life...and take the entire Hamas Caucus Squad with you

A six year old Austrian orphan ecstatically hugs a new pair of shoes, given to him by the American Red Cross in 1946. Compare his reaction to that we witness today........... As so-called refugees like Ilhan Omar not only take America's generosity for granted but actively criticize and attack the very country that afforded them such opportunity. Compare the gratitude that World War 2 refugees, fleeing the devastation in Europe, showed to the countries that allowed them to start a new life.
Compare the effort that those refugees made to adopt and adapt to the customs and laws of the nations that welcomed them.
Consider the respect and pride they took in being citizens of that new country, that offered them refuge and safety and a chance to partake of bounty they themselves had no part in creating.
Compare the refugees of then with the refugees of today like Ilhan Omar and then ask yourself this.
Are the words and actions of Ilhan Omar consistent with someone who's grateful for the chance of making a new life in a country free of the very things she fled?
Or are they consistent with the words and actions of someone who despises this countries generosity, that spits in the hand extending such freedom?
Real refugees cherish the gifts they are given, unlike self-serving opportunists like Ilhan Omar, that believe they are not only entitled to the freedom, safety and benefits that they never fought, died or worked for, but actively despise the American principles, people and sacrifices that made such freedom and benefits possible.

We can only hope...guess that was a crap shoot ...this is what happens when you put people that are not qualified in a position.

A new internal Democrat poll in swing districts released on Sunday showed that socialist Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) and Ilhan Omar (D-MN) are extremely unpopular and that they may cost the Democratic Party the presidency and the House in 2020.

Ocasio-Cortez Fires Back At Trump: 'The Country I Come From...Is The United States'

"Ocasio-Cortez was recognized by 74% of voters in the poll; 22% had a favorable view," Axios reported. "Rep. Ilhan Omar of Minnesota — another member of The Squad — was recognized by 53% of the voters; 9% (not a typo) had a favorable view."
"Socialism was viewed favorably by 18% of the voters and unfavorably by 69%," Axios added, whereas "capitalism was 56% favorable; 32% unfavorable."
The firm that conducted the poll gave the results to Axios on the condition that it not be named because it works "with all parts of the party."
A top Democrat involved in the 2020 congressional races told Axios: "If all voters hear about is AOC, it could put the [House] majority at risk. [S]he's getting all the news and defining everyone else’s races. Socialism is toxic to these voters."

For two and a half years, the Democrats, the Media, and Hollywood have done NOTHING but spew attacks against Donald Trump, Melania, Baron and his entire family! Vulgar comments, vulgar skits on Saturday Night Live. Vulgar music videos from the thug artists who are no role models to our youth.

They have INCITED riots and violence in this country against us and the President.

Madonna wants to blow up the White House, Aylissa Milano mouthing off, Ashly Judd, Linda Sorenson, Robert DeNiro, The View, CNN, Meryl Streep, Rosie O'Donnell, Corey Booker, Maxine Watters, Eric Holder, Pelosi, Schumer, Feinstein, Cummings, all of them.

Now we have Antifa, the Pink P Hats, BLM, complete chaos and lawlessness!

Rashid Tahlib saying in front of her own child..."I am going to impeach the M-F'er"!!!

Omar racist comments about American's, Jews, our Country, our President!

The lies AOC continues to spew out of her mouth!

They tell the public on National TV to attack us at restaurants, gas stations, in our homes, on the streets, in the stores! To bloody us and kick us, and they are doing it to us everyday. Teachers are attacking children in our schools for wearing a hat THEY do not like!

The pandering to illegal aliens, who ARE foreign citizens, promising them free stuff and WE pay for it! Campaigning on foreign soil!!!

Coaching illegal aliens to LIE to come here! Going over the border and human trafficking them into our country.

Now the lawless CHURCHES telling illegal aliens they will harbor them, against our laws, and protect criminals over the American people! Those Churches need to be shut down and those Church EMPLOYEES need to be arrested! They are NOT God, they are just men, no better, no worse, that any other of us! This is despicable to allow Churches to do this. They are NOTHING but a big business now putting their noses in politics! There is NO separation of Church and State anymore.

This is out of control.

This is disgusting.

This is eight year of Obama ramping up the hate and division in this country and sitting back allowing it to happen!

We have allowed these Swamp Rats to get away with murder, crimes, division, child trafficking, sexual harassment, embezzlement of our tax dollars, destroy our country with their FAILED policies, wars, dumping millions of foreigners on our backs to pay for, high taxes, lost jobs, destroy our healthcare, and now this! Massive immigration, both legal and illegal, work visas taking OUR jobs. This powder keg is gonna blow!

Now we have thousands of foreigners, who do not belong in our country, taking to the streets and mouthing off demanding WE owe them free stuff and citizenship. Go to hell, deport them all. Go make your demands in your country!



Where is the outrage against that!

House Homeland Security Committee Chairman Bennie G. Thompson was seeking extra protection for members of Congress on Monday after President Trump’s tweets and remarks about the progressive “squad.”
