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 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.

                  You’re being called racist because your claims of fraud are solely based on racism, champ.

                  You’d understand that if you understood that racism isn’t just a bad word to call people.
