Trump says Rep. Ilhan Omar should be jailed or deported to Somalia

Staff Reporter: President Donald Trump asserted in a Sunday night Truth Social post that Democratic Rep. Ilhan Omar of Minnesota should either be locked up in jail or sent to Somalia.

"There is 19 Billion Dollars in Minnesota Somalia Fraud. Fake ‘Congresswoman’ Illhan Omar, a constant complainer who hates the USA, knows everything there is to know. She should be in jail, or even a worse punishment, sent back to Somalia, considered one of the absolutely worst countries in the World. She could help to MAKE SOMALIA GREAT AGAIN!" Trump declared in the post. Omar, who has served in the U.S. House of Representatives since early 2019, was born in Somalia and became a U.S. citizen in 2000.

"ICE is removing some of the most violent criminals in the World from our Country, and bring them back home, where they belong. Why is Minnesota fighting this? Do they really want murderers and drug dealers to be ensconced in their community? The thugs that are protesting include many highly paid professional agitators and anarchists. Is this really what Minnesota wants?" the president asked in a Sunday Truth Social post. "The crooked Governor and 'Congresswoman' Omar, who married her brother, don’t mind because it keeps the focus of attention off the 18 Billion Dollar, Plus, FRAUD, that has taken place in the State! Don’t worry, we're on it!" he added in the post. Omar recently drew criticism for referring to the nation as the "U.S. God---- States."

"No member of Congress should *ever* refer to our country as the ‘U.S. G*ddamn States,’" GOP Sen. Mike Lee, R-Utah wrote in a post on X, asking, "What should be the consequence of saying that?" Business tycoon Elon Musk replied, "Whatever the penalty is for treason."

Fox News Digital reached out to Omar's office on Monday to request comment on the Truth Social post.
