Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) is under fire after comments about Charlie Kirk’s assassination, with Republicans accusing her of downplaying the tragedy. A censure vote narrowly failed, but Rep. Nancy Mace has since called for Omar’s citizenship to be revoked, reviving old allegations of immigration and marriage fraud.
The controversy has escalated as Trump amplified claims Omar married her brother and watchdog groups urged FBI investigations. Omar dismissed the attacks as politically motivated, insisting, “You cannot deport an American citizen.”
