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.

      Both things are correct. It’s a standard character trait that all MAGAs think we are as stupid as they are. They are too stupid to be aware of that fact. They’re like untrained pets, who have grown so large, they now rule the house, and have become dangerous.

      I read the book, it’s the later.

      Mouth-breathers kept telling me, you don’t understand us, he gets us, that book explains it all.

      There’s no fucking way, so i read it. It doesn’t. It spins a mostly untrue (to him) tale that is honestly normal in the non rich people raised in Appalachia. I had family in the hills.

      The mine/mill/factory was either sold to China and shut down, or just shut down for non profitability, leaving everyone working in the service industry with no money flowing into the areas. People get poor, drugs happen, service industry crumbles.

      He told them that book would explain their story, so they just went OK, that’s why we’re racist, sexist, hate the poor.

      They just eat up everything he says.

      I’m as worried (if not more worried) about him replaceing T as I am T getting a third term.

        If Vance becomes president, Peter Theil becomes president. He holds Vance’s leash.

        Theil absolutely has a plan to steal the presidency. Unfortunately for him, so do many other people, including Musk, Rubio, Don Jr, Bondi, Hegseth, etc. They ALL think they are the worthy MAGA successors, but they’re wrong.

        MAGA is a classic Cult of Personality. Once Trump assumes room temperature, the back-stabbing will destroy MAGA.

        Elon and his brother both used to be very open about working illegally in the US in violation of their visas. There’s also his use of illegal drugs which he has never made a secret of. The evidence is a lot more solid than this bizarre nonsense about Omar.

She allowed these daycares to receive money 💴 from us, the taxpayers. There’s plenty of proof from Nick Shirley on YouTube going to these daycares trying to enroll a child 👶.

Like the other reply mentioned you don’t waltz into a daycare, they will 100% go wtf are you doing here and tell you to make an appointment. Worse it sounds like this guy was maybe filming which is absolutely a no no. Probably came across as a fucking weirdo the daycare staff wanted nothing to do with, not even mentioning the children’s privacy and safety.

                People don’t come in unless they made an appointment. Why? Because security and more importantly WE ARE BUSY! My job is not to entertain you and get your business. I am here to educate and help the kids.

                People with cameras don’t come in. Why? Seriously??

                People that are obviously out for blood don’t come in. Why? Don’t steal my time and obviously I want to protect the children from psychos.

              There is something to what he is saying. Nick Shirley is a YouTuber that went to some daycares where the doors were locked or they didn’t let him in and concluded they weren’t real daycares. He’s either a fuckin moron or straight up propagandist.

              So, here’s the “something.” That clown YouTuber was amplified by right wing politicians. JD Vance said it deserved a Pulitzer. 1 week later, DHS sent 2000 more ICE goons to Minnesota as part of their surge. There is a legitimate case to be made that the was because of Shirley’s video.

              It’s. All. So. Stupid.

    Remember, Elon Musk was in America on a student visa but working for his brother’s company instead of attending school. That’s visa fraud, which you’re required to disclose on any subsequent visa or citizenship applications. He didn’t, so he’s also guilty of immigration fraud.

    Anyone who runs on seizing his assets and locking that illegal immigrant in a detention facility gets my vote

        She’s probably a self hating Asian who would rather have a racist partner as long as he’s white than be with an Asian man. It’s like short women who only want a tall partner because they feel insecure and need to compensate. But here it’s a woman who feels that her non-whiteness is inferior and thus she needs to compensate by marrying a white man. And with that inferiority complex she attracts racist men.

        There are way too many racist white man with an Asian wife for it to be a coincidence.

                It gets confusing because usually people just call them asian too 💀 i say “east asian” though because everyone knows you mean chinese, korean et cetera in that case, and you might specify south asian for indians, pakistanis etc.

                In the UK we have more south asians than east asians, but I’m pretty sure it’s the inverse in america. So if somekne in the uk says describes someine as “asian,” it’s a safer bet that they mean “indian subcontinent” or middle east rather than East-Asian.
