JD Vance accused Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) of having “definitely committed immigration fraud” and said that he’d recently spoken with White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller about how best to “go after her.”

Speaking on a podcast hosted by MAGA influencer Benny Johnson on Friday, Vance was asked about claims that Omar had defrauded the United States by marrying her brother to secure his legal residency.

The unsubstantiated claim has circulated in MAGA circles for years but has been denied by Omar multiple times. The congresswoman was born in Somalia but moved to Minneapolis with her family in 1997, fleeing the civil war.

      So……if you cared about fraud, why TF aren’t you angry at the politicians of Minnesota and California?

        You haven’t even established that there is fraud to worry about, buttercup. All you’ve done is try to wield the term as a racist cudgel and throw tantrums when people call you out on it.

          So why do illegals drive a nicer car than me? Explain that to me Einstein, and also hello to you too, after all that’s all that word means nowadays. You call someone racist, you’re just saying hello to them.

                No, sweaty, you just don’t like that you’re being called out for being a racist.

                Claiming someone is “illegal” because they have a nicer car than you is racist.

                    Self awareness isn’t your thing, is it, kiddo?

                    You’re doing a good job being a parody of a human being.
