Trump’s xenophobic comments about Somalis in Minnesota are disgusting, hateful, and unbecoming of the President of the United States.

I’m proud to stand alongside @ilhanmn.bsky.social and the Somali community. Read her op-ed: https://www.nytimes.com/2025/12/04/opinion/ilhan-omar-somalia-trump.html

"It is a creepy obsession." Rep. Ilhan Omar responds to Trump's personal attacks. "It's actually very frightening to have that level of attention from somebody who should be focused on doing the business of the American people and not just creepily watching what one member of Congress is doing."

“The president knows he is failing, and so he is reverting to what he knows best: trying to divert attention by stoking bigotry,” Rep. Ilhan Omar writes about Trump’s recent remarks on Somali Americans.

Thank you @ilhanmn.bsky.social for making it plain.

The Somali community is vibrant and will not be intimidated by these shameful, cowardly attacks.
The president fails to realize how deeply Somali Americans love this country.

We are doctors, teachers, and elected leaders working to make our country better.

We will not let Trump intimidate or debilitate us. My op-ed:

The president’s obsession with the Somali community and me is really unhealthy and creepy. He is trying to deflect from his failures and sinking approval ratings. Sorry, Trump, we all see through your attempts to hide from your broken promises.

His obsession with me is creepy. I hope he gets the help he desperately needs.

Mohammed Zaher Ibrahim was finally released after being unjustly imprisoned for over nine months in an Israeli prison.

My heart is filled with gratitude for every single person who spoke out and fought to bring him home.

I am a citizen and so are majority of Somalis in America. Good luck celebrating a policy change that really doesn’t have much impact on the Somalis you love to hate. We are here to stay 💁🏽‍♀️

Greg Abbot called CAIR, the largest Muslim civil rights organization, a “terrorist organization” and said Muslims are a “threat to our freedom.”

The normalization of anti-Muslim hate speech is vile.

This bigot should have no place in elected office.

Every single day ICE agents are threatening people and terrorizing communities.

We’ve seen ICE pepper spray babies, disappear US citizens, slam distraught mothers and fathers to the ground—now they’re terrorizing St. Paul.

ICE is out of control and should be abolished.
Federal agents from ICE, DEA and the FBI raided a St. Paul paper distributor Tuesday morning. Hundreds of community members responded in protest, clashing with officers. At least two people were detained by authorities, according to a witness.

We should NOT be selling weapons to one of the worst human rights abusers in the world.

This should be a no-brainer.

MBS should be held responsible for the murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi — not welcomed at the White House to celebrate a multibillion-dollar arms package deal.

Unlike you, I can read and that’s why I know what the constitution says.
Trump on Ilhan Omar: "I look at somebody who comes from Somalia...and she comes in and tells us how to run our country. 'The Constitution says this, the Constitution says that.' The whole thing is crazy."

Mohammed Zaher Ibrahim's trial is this Sunday. He is a 16-year-old Palestinian-American citizen who is unjustly imprisoned.

He has lost 1/4 of his body weight in prison.

The Israeli government must release him immediately.

Sorry, Trump can hate all he wants. I’m not going anywhere. 👋🏽

Our city deserves new leadership.

I encourage you to rank Omar Fateh first and also rank DeWayne Davis and Jazz Hampton.

I joined the Slate for Change door knock launch and I’m beyond hopeful we’re going to build a city that works for all of us.

Reminder: Republicans are more concerned with protecting pedophiles than protecting the American people.

Day 30 of the shutdown and the pedophile protection party only cares about ensuring the Epstein files are not released.

Trump was able to find $40 billion to bail out Argentina and $300 million for his new ballroom.

Yet he can't find funds to prevent millions of Americans from losing access to healthcare or stop kids from going hungry.

Cruelty is the point.

Self-inflicted diva down.

Mike, come to the negotiating table and end this shutdown. Stop doing Trump’s bidding and reopen the government.

You can be "happy Mike" by negotiating and not kicking millions of Americans off their healthcare.
Mike Johnson: "I don't like being mad Mike. I want to be happy Mike. I want to be the happy warrior. But I am so upset about all this. God bless America."
