Mogadishu House Rep Ilhan Omar Attempt to Shame Elliot Abrams Backfires

 

This has to be the ultimate insult from Pelosi. Appointing this piece of work to this committee. Yet no one is reporting what she was about at the recent hearing on Venezuela with Elliot Abrahms.

This no less from the :  Daily Beast

Omar’s comportment at the hearing, as well as her obvious belief that the United States is an imperialist and reactionary nation that by its very nature abuses human rights, should alone be reason enough to have her removed before she can do real damage.

The Daily Beast of all things takes an interesting look at her charges and worth a ride over.

Have we all lost our sensibilities? Access to sensitive information and what a propaganda machine.

The first time we hear from Mogadishu Omar and what a rare treat this was.

The envoy came to testify not be confirmed but you would never know it. I suggest she knows nothing of what she speaks, but rather was given her talking points. Came to learn nothing. She barley can read English.

 

Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minnesota, shared a heated exchange with the special envoy to Venezuela Elliott Abrams during a House Foreign Affairs Subcommittee meeting.

 

 

The House Foreign Affairs Committee heard testimony from U.S. experts about the growing humanitarian and political crisis engulfing Venezuela. One of those testifying was Elliott Abrams, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo’s newly appointed Special Envoy on Venezuela in the State Department, who found himself in a viral moment.

That came after Abrams read his opening statement, defining the U.S. mission as one of defending the nation’s only independent body, the National Assembly that elected Juan Guaido as its head, and which the U.S. now views as the arm of government, and Guaido as Venezuela’s only freely elected leader.  U.S. policy, Abrams said, was to aid the Venezuelan people, and to work in conjunction with other nations to help the people of Venezuela in their effort to restore democracy. He emphasized that the U.S. did not favor arming Maduro’s opponents, and supported a peaceful democratic transition.

….

Omar’s performance clearly was in sync with the Code Pink demonstrators who interrupted the hearing at its start and had to be removed by security. The Code Pink crew yelled in defense of the Maduro government, and had posters attacking Abrams as a “war criminal.”
