Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) argued on Wednesday that the United States “bullying” Venezuela with sanctions led to the collapse of Venezuela under socialist dictator Nicolás Maduro.
“You know, I mean, a lot of the policies that we have put in place has [sic] kind of helped lead the devastation in Venezuela,” Omar said in an interview with the leftist Democracy Now! program. “And we’ve sort of set the stage for where we’re arriving today.” “This particular bullying and the use of sanctions to eventually intervene and make regime change really does not help the people of countries like Venezuela, and it certainly does not help and is not in the interest of the United States,” Omar said. Venezuela is currently suffering through the worst economic, political, and humanitarian crisis in its history after nearly two decades of socialist rule. Maduro lost his legal mandate to govern the country in January after his last term was up, when the National Assembly denounced fraudulent elections a year ago and swore in its president, Juan Guaidó, as interim president of the country. Omar has denounced international support for Guaidó as a “coup” and Guaidó’s party as “far right” despite its membership in the Socialist International. She is among several voices supporting Maduro around the world in opposition to the leaders of 54 countries who accept Guaidó’s legitimacy, according to the PanAm Post. “In February, Omar attacked Elliott Abrams, the U.S. special envoy to Venezuela, in a House Foreign Affairs Committee hearing, accusing him of supporting violence against civilians as U.S. policy,” the Washington Examiner reported. “I suppose there is a question in there, and the answer is that the entire thrust of American policy in Venezuela is to support the Venezuelan people’s effort to restore democracy to their country. That’s our policy,” Abrams responded. But it's NEVER socialism's fault.... |

As opposed to her supporting violence against U.S. citizens as U.S. policy?

And I thought California was home to the most vapid cunts. It looks like MN will soon have the #1 seat in that regard.

I never would have thought we would have an elected official that is so blatantly anti-America.

Hmm, there’s a whole world of business out there besides the US but we’re the cause of their woes...lol.
So she’s admitting that socialism needs a larger capitalist economy to support it...double the laughs. |

No, socialism did.
It's ending the way socialism ends. Every fucking time. |

The fact that these vociferously anti-American whores are serving in Congress gives you a good idea of where this country is headed.

Trump should have clapped back.
No. Some people did something. |

How did a foreigner who obviously hates this country so extremely become one of this country's leaders, and what would she have to do before she could be impeached?

And ya, she's low on the IQ curve if she can spout those kinds of lies and believe them as truth. Not many limbs on that tree. Genetic diversity may not be her strength. |

This cunt does not have the best interests of the United States at heart
I have no idea what we can do. She, and her kind are a danger. |

If Guiado is just another socialist, why are we getting involved?

She's great. She's the vocal stupidity of the left, out and proud. She may actually beat memes for waking people up to whats going on.

Yup, so glad we imported all of this diversity from all over the 3rd world.
It's definitely paying off. ![]() |

View Quote A peaceful solution is obviously preferable, sadly I don't believe that is going to happen. Their hunger for power and control is their reason to exist. We are seeing our future if we allow it. I hope I'm wrong. |
