quote:

U.S. Rep. Ilhan Omar is rising on the House Foreign Affairs Committee as she steps into the role of vice chairwoman of the subcommittee with jurisdiction over Africa and global human rights issues.

Omar's office said her new position was being announced Thursday in Washington. The panel's full name is the Subcommittee on Africa, Global Health, Global Human Rights and International Organizations.

"Upholding basic human rights around the world is a core priority for me and the Fifth District of Minnesota," Omar, a Democrat, said in a prepared statement. "As someone who represents a large African diaspora community and is the first African-born immigrant to serve in Congress, I am particularly excited to play a leadership role in overseeing our international aid and foreign policy on the continent."

You're right. No matter how hard the Bee tries, real life tries to outdo them.

No one here (me included) likes this woman, but can we set aside the partisan outrage for JUST a moment?

I do not pretend to be an expert on House committee assignments, but is there any non-freshman in the majority party who is NOT at least VICE-chair of some SUB-committee SOMEWHERE in the House?

There are 20 full committees and approximately 100 standing sub-committees, plus temporary and ad hoc committees and subcommittees, right? That is AT LEAST 240 chairs and vice-chairs. There are only 221 Dems in the entire House.

Realistically, the Dems kinda HAD to give her something. They gave her VICE-Chair of a not-very-important SUB-committee.

I despise Omar but perhaps you should fact check your memes before posting. She was not arrested 23 times and there is no evidence of her father being a terrorist.

ex Somali terrorist,


Come on dude....There is plenty of shite to criticize this bitch over without making shite up. Just like people on this board keep saying Warnock's ex wife accused him of beating her. Warnock is a dangerous radical as is Omar. No need to fabricate stuff.
