A resurfaced clip of Dem. Rep. Ilhan Omar<\/a>, a member of the progressive “Squad” in Congress, sparked a frenzy on social media this week with conservatives blasting the congresswoman over her comments regarding the “radicalization of White men.”<\/p>\n

“I would say our country should be more fearful of White men across our country, because they are actually causing most of the deaths within this country,” Omar said in a\u00a02018 interview<\/u><\/a> with Al-Jazeera while discussing the domestic terrorism threats in the United States and responding to a question on how much concern “jihadism” poses to the United States.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0“And so if fear was the driving force of policies to keep America safe, Americans safe inside of this country, we should be profiling, monitoring, and creating policies to fight the radicalization of White men.”<\/p>\n

The clip, posted by conservative influencer accounts including Laura Loomer and LibsofTikTok with millions of impressions, sparked outrage from conservatives on social media, including from inside the White House.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“This isn\u2019t just sick; it\u2019s actually genocidal language,” Vice President JD Vance\u00a0posted on X<\/u><\/a>. “What a disgrace this person is.”<\/p>\n

“This is blatant racism,” GOP Sen. Mike Lee\u00a0posted on X<\/u><\/a>. “Who condemns it?”<\/p>\n

ILHAN OMAR BLASTS HARRIS-WALZ CAMPAIGN FOR COURTING LIZ CHENEY: ‘HUGE MISSTEP’<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

“@ilhanMN never ceases to be an embarrassment for Minnesota,” GOP Majority Whip Rep. Tom Emmer, who represents Minnesota\u2019s 6th Congressional District,\u00a0posted on X.\u00a0<\/u><\/a><\/p>\n

“There\u2019s never been a more anti-American member of Congress than Ilhan Omar,”\u00a0conservative influencer Paul Szypula\u00a0posted on X.\u00a0<\/u><\/a><\/p>\n

Omar’s office responded to a media inquiry by pointing Fox News Digital to her X post <\/a>responding to Vance.<\/p>\n

“In this nearly 8yr old clip, I am referring to the rise of white nationalism in an annual report issued by the Anti-Defamation League that said white supremacists were responsible for 78 percent of “extremist-related murders,” Omar said. “PS you should look up what “genocidal” actually means when you\u2019re actively supporting a genocide taking place in Gaza.”<\/p>\n

The social media firestorm comes shortly after Omar sparked controversy<\/a> for telling Daily Caller News Foundation reporter Myles Morell to “f— off” after he asked her a question about fellow Democratic Party figures traveling to El Salvador to defend illegal immigrant Kilmar Abrego Garcia, who was deported to the country by the Trump administration.<\/p>\n

Omar later responded to the clip<\/u><\/a> being shared on X, stating, “I said what I said. You and all your miserable trolls can f— off.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
