Ilhan Omar’s Attempt to Shame Politico Reporter Over Obama Quotes Backfires. Bigly.

Ilhan Omar’s Attempt to Shame Politico Reporter Over Obama Quotes Backfires. Bigly.

What was she thinking?

https://youtu.be/2G51FQ9vEtE

On Friday, Mary wrote about Rep. Ilhan Omar’s Obama-bashing interview with Politico. In this interview, Omar told Politico‘s Tim Alberta that, among other things, Obama’s hope and change was a “mirage” and that he got away with the “caging of kids” and with “murder” because he was “polished.”

Upon publication of the piece and the Democrat horror that she had attacked Obama, whom 49% of Democrats think was the best president since WWII, Omar went on the offensive.

Unleashing her considerable Twitter power, Omar posted an audio recording of the Obama section of the interview and wrote in a since-deleted tweet:

Exhibit A of how reporters distort words.

I’m an Obama fan! I was saying how Trump is different from Obama, and why we should focus on policy not politics.

This is why I always tape my interviews. ???? https://t.co/iZOAEslo1c https://t.co/8rjIq5LfxD

The problem, as Mary noted in her update to her post, is that the recording backs up the Politico report.

This attempt to shame Politico‘s Alberta was so completely unhinged that he clapped back.  Hard.

Here’s a transcript of the audio clip released by Omar.

https://twitter.com/dmartosko/status/1104149193537527810

Apparently recognizing that she was violating the first rule of holes, Omar deleted her tweet . . . but not before the damage was done.

Fox News reports:

Rep. Ilhan Omar’s attempt to shame a news outlet for misquoting her blistering attack on former President Barack Obama backfired after she released audio of the interview that only served to confirm her remarks.

The Minnesota Democrat, who’s faced controversy over comments perceived as anti-Semitic, got into hot water yet again after saying Obama’s “hope and change” message was a “mirage” and slammed the administration’s drone and border-detention policies.

She told Politico that the Obama administration was responsible for the “caging of kids” at the U.S.-Mexico border, the “droning of countries around the world,” and that the 44th president “operated within the same fundamentally broken framework as his Republican successor.”

. . . . Following the article’s publication, Omar went on offense on Twitter and accused the outlet’s reporter, Tim Alberta, of distorting her words and insisted that she is, in fact, a fan of Obama.

. . . . But the move immediately backfired as the recording actually confirmed the comments she made to the news outlet. By Saturday afternoon, she had deleted the tweet.

. . . . Omar’s attempt at shaming a media outlet was called out by the reporter who said the rookie congresswoman tried to bash the media in an effort to avoid the comments she made.

The backlash, including that from the left, was swift.

What was she thinking? Not only is it comically absurd to post audio proving you are being less than truthful, but given her controversial nature, she needs all the media support she can get.  Falsely shaming and attempting to undermine them is not a good move.

It’s so fun when rank beginners think they can play in the big leagues, like a high school championship team who gets to scrimmage with the pros.

Would you like some burn cream, Ma’am? Or a new shovel?

    But like a broken clock, she was correct on this statement of hers.

    Fortunately most rank beginners know they’re rank beginners. I recall transiting the waste lands between my home and the Polo Grounds in San Francisco for my first Rugby game. I was 15, which meant I got hit on by every gay guy between the last BART station and my ultimate destination.

    As an aside, I laughed it off. I believed then and I believe now that anyone who would hit on a teenager is a pathetic individual who can’t handle an adult relationship. Therefore, they don’t want one.

    So we got to the stadium and suited up. Our uniforms were styled after the New Zealand All Blacks.

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=12&v=yiKFYTFJ_kw

    “The Greatest haka EVER?”

    We got to the stadium and suited up. I still have my rugby cleats. We walked out onto the field and saw the hugest men we ever saw in our lives. We turned to our coach and pleaded, “We aren’t playing them, are we?”

    No, we weren’t playing them. We couldn’t play them. The Chicago Bears had (has?) an off-season rugby team. That’s what we were looking at.They wouldn’t have deigne to play us. They might have coached us if we asked them.

    We played another high school team instead ot the 300 pounders.
    we still lost, but we played.

      Arminius in reply to Arminius. | March 10, 2019 at 4:34 pm

      Yes, we lost. It was somewhat a distraction when the parents of opposing team is chanting, “White boy, we gonna cut you up.” And you have no one on your side.

      But still, I believe there is a value lesson. Play hard, never give up, and never give in to hatred. Hatred will destroy you from within.

      Arminius in reply to Arminius. | March 11, 2019 at 7:45 pm

      I am amused by the thumbs down. What part of my personal history am I getting wrong. never walked by gay guys in San Francisco? Perhaps, Mr. or Mrs. thumbs downer you insist their are no gay guys in SF. Like these.

      https://flavorwire.files.wordpress.com/2013/03/sisters-perpetual-indulgence.jpeg

      who would be oh, so polite to a fifteen year old boy.

      OK, you win. I lied. We did actually lose to the Chicago Bears off-season Rugby club.

      Feel better? I sure do. I’d be a damn site happier losing to the Chicago Bears in even one of their off years than against a high school team.

      Arminius in reply to Arminius. | March 11, 2019 at 8:02 pm

      I admit, I lied about everything.

      There are no gay men in SF.

      And if there were, they certainly wouldn’t violate their NAMPLA ethics and hit on fifteen year old boys.

      And we did lose to the Chicago Bears. You caught me, Mr. or Mrs. thumbs down But we didn’t lose to them on the San Francisco Polo Grounds.

      https://s.hdnux.com/photos/07/00/01/1835110/5/628×471.jpg

      We lost to them on Soldier Field.

      Way to go, thumbs-downer. You caught every one of my lies.

      I’ll toss this in for free. We lost ot the Chicago Bears off-season Rugby club on Soldier Field because they INVITED us. Which is why all of you read about it in the newspapers and caught me in my obvious lies. Which in turn invites thumbs down.

        Arminius in reply to Arminius. | March 11, 2019 at 8:10 pm

        NAMBLA. National Man Boy Love Association. Which isn’t really a thing that has a place of pride in the annual gay pride parades in a parade that doesn’t exist in every year in a city that I guess doesn’t exist and that I just made up right here right now.

        You caught me, Mr. or Mrs. or whatever pronoun you’re using today thumbs-downer. I just made everything up.

    GREAT to have our mortal enemies tell us all their innermost thoughts and plans isn’t it.

      Having our mortal enemies tell us their innermost thoughts isn’t the problem. They’re screaming their intentions from the rooftops.

      They’re writing them down. We have the documents.

      https://clarionproject.org/muslim_brotherhood_explanatory_memorandum/

      http://www.militantislammonitor.org/article/id/2671

      The real problem is that our government has joined with the members of the Organization of the Islamic Conference (OIC) to cover the whole thing up.

      It began under the Bush administration. At least, I as a Naval Intelligence officer didn’t feel any heat to shut up about what I could read with my own eyes about Islam before Bush started the “Islam is peace” bulls***. I retired in 2008. In 2011 it became official policy under Obama; no matter how much evidence there is to support the proposition it is USG dogma that there is no link between Islam and terrorism.

      It is why you can read the official report on the Fort Hood shooting and never encounter the word Islam or Nidal Hassan (Soldier of Allah per his business card).

      Stephen Caughlin is a former US Army Major and probably the foremost Pentagon analyst concerning the Islamic threat until he, like I, became persona non grata. But like I, he refuses to shut about what he knows to be the truth.

      I highly recommend you watch his videos.

      https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=1&v=DkHLCt-2Cpw

      “Stephen Coughlin, Part 1 Lectures on National Security verses Counterterror Analysis Introduction”

      (I’ve corrected some spelling errors introduced by someone named
      Setsuka Smolka who posted the video)

      I could go on and on, but the bottom line is we have their play book. It’s a thin play book. And they’ve been using it for twelve hundred years. A six year old can understand it. I can explain it to a six year old. But politicians refuse to get it.

      I’m lumping a lot of people into the politician category who are not technically politicians. Generals, Admirals (it pains me as a Navy guy but when the members of the JCS testify before Congress I tend only to believe the Marine and even then only with reservations), senior career bureaucrats such as with the Department of State or Justice or Homeland Security, and of course the Media.

      And the thing is, I know they’re lying. And, more importantly, if you watch them closely they reveal they know they’re lying. For instance, recently the husband of Asia Bibi appealed to the British government for asylum for his family. If you aren’t aware of the case, Asia Bibi is a Christian woman in Pakistan who was falsely accused of blasphemy against Muhammad and the despicable god of the Quran. She spent nearly a decade on death row until the Pakistani Supreme Court over turned her conviction. Not once, but twice (is it here I submit the “not all Muslims verbiage?). But a howling Pakistani mob of Muslims (is there really an other kind?) is literally screaming for her head. She’s now under police protection and moving from safe house to safe house. She can’t even see her own family. Effectively she remains on death row. The former governor of Punjab province, Salman Taseer, was assassinated by a member of his personal police security detail for merely criticizing the blasphemy law. She’s not safe, her husband knows that. The entire British government was behind giving Asia Bibi asylum. This includes the minister of the interior, Sajid Javid, an ex Muslim. He certainly knows the score.

      But Theresa May refused to even consider giving Asia Bibi asylum. And the reasons why shows she knows the score, too. She cited national security concersn. First, because the same howling mob that is screaming for Asia Bibi’s head in Pakistan also exists in Britain. They are the “certain segments” of British society that would be outraged if the UK government gave her and her family sanctuary. Second, UK embassies and citizens might be targeted by outraged Mohammedans (really is there any other kind?) worldwide.

      In other words, while her lying tongue tells you that Islam is not only a religion of peace the the very word Islam means peace (it doesn’t; salaam which is a cognate to the Hebrew Shalom means peace) she shows by her actions that she knows she’s sitting on a powder keg of hate and violence. Which she invited in.

      We are on our own, my friend. All you have is excommunicated former members of the national security and intelligence communities on your side.

I wonder what it would take to get her voted out of office in Minnesota? No way she loses a general. That district would vote for Hitler over any Republican.

But she might be in trouble if someone challenges her in the primary.

    Ilhan Omar (D. Somalia) won with 78% of votes cast. There is zero chance between now and Kingdom Come that her voters will come to understand our form of government to which Omar pledged the Article VI oath. Her oath, as with most Ds, is worthless.

    https://electionresults.sos.state.mn.us/Results/USRepresentative/115?officeinelectionid=16977&districtid=560

    She got the Somali vote but also the millennial vote. This grouping will vote Loony Left D forever.

    “The 5th is also one of the most educated districts in the state, second only to Minnesota’s suburban 3rd Congressional District in adults with a bachelor’s degree or higher. Nearly half of the population 25 and older has a bachelor’s degree or higher. The district also has some of the wealthiest pockets in the state, but also some of the poorest.”

      That’s the general election. Nobody ever thought she could lose that. The real election was the primary, and she only got 48%, and two years earlier she only got 42% against Phyllis Kahn, so she could be vulnerable, especially now that the Jewish voters in her district know the truth about her.

      Arminius in reply to fscarn. | March 10, 2019 at 1:44 pm

      “The 5th is also one of the most educated districts in the state…”

      As Orwell pointed out, it takes an education to believe really stupid s***. No normal man would fall for it.

      I recall debating a fellow officer about women in combat back in the early ’90s. Sorry, ladies, it’s an incredibly stupid idea. So stupid it takes a high degree of education to dumb someone down to the point it becomes acceptable. Which was actually one of my rebuttals to my friends (and we are friends to this day) arguments for women in combat. He pointed out that women are more highly educated than men. I retorted that in Pakistan the reverse is true. Does that mean Pakistani women are stupider than Pakistani men, or that women are simply denied opportunity?

      Frankly, it was clear to me then, and has become increasingly clear over time, that one reason that women are “more highly educated” is that the education establishment is hostile to men. Even back then to graduated from Ed school you had to “teach for social justice.” You had to regurgitate all the bulls&&& we hear now. It’s nothing new; it’s only filtered out to the general public lately. And do men really want to go to college now and be forced to take classes in toxic masculinity? And does the military really want males who have been indoctrinated to believe masculinity is toxic?

      And what are women more highly educated in? Gender studies?

      I just pointed out that the unequal distribution of a public good says nothing about the intelligence of an individual. And given the quality of the product that the educational establishment was producing the less exposure one has to it the better.

      So, ladies and gentlemen, I bring you a message of hope. I give you the Green New Deal. I bet the “highly educated” Gen Xers or whatever in Ilhan Omar’s district will commit suicide and fall for it hook, line, and sinker. Does anyone besides me remember the headline and article in the UK Telegraph back in 2000? When an “expert” from the East Anglica University Climate Research Unit, a primary source BTW for the UN’s IPCC scare mongering, said that soon children in Britain would not know what snow was? I bookmarked that because I knew they were wrong. They’re always wrong.

      In a similar vein, just days after some true believers in the global warmista cult testified before the Minnesota state legislature (I go to the Power Line blog for my Minnesota news) that temperatures in Duluth wouldn’t fall below 10 degrees they had the polar vortex and temps dropped to -30. Glorious! And even better the utility company couldn’t produce enough power to heat their homes. They had a brown out. Why? Because in Minnesota it’s the law. They have a mandate that electric power companies must derive 25% of their energy from “renewables.” Solar and Wind. Well, just as Spain finally wised up to the fact that solar panels don’t produce energy at night (the subsidy they offered was so rich that people who applied for it bought gasoline powered generators so they could feed power into the grid day and night, and make money) solar panels don’t produce energy during a blizzard. First, it’s overcast. Second and more importantly they don’t produce power when they’re covered in six feet of snow.

      Maybe all those “green jobs” the “democratic” socialists predict involve hiring high school kids to shovel snow off of solar panels. During a blizzard. While the snow is still falling. So they can just continuously doing it. And even if the snow stops falling the the sky is still overcast and the solar panels won’t produce any energy.

      But what a lot of people don’t seem to realize is that wind turbines don’t produce power during blizzards. They ice up.

      The absurdity of “renewables” revealed.

      https://notalotofpeopleknowthat.wordpress.com/2016/12/08/helicopter-de-icing-for-wind-turbines/
      The solution is easy: a truck equipped with a fuel tank and oil burner – with the capacity to hold 44m3 water – heats the water from 7ºC to 65ºC in 6,5 hours. The equipment has been developed in collaboration with Skellefteå Kraft AB and the truck also has a fuel depot for the helicopter. Everything is completed for efficient setup in the field with a tank and sprayer mounted under the helicopter. The hot water is then sprayed onto the the blades in the same way as when de-icing an aircraft.”

      I checke out

        Arminius in reply to Arminius. | March 10, 2019 at 2:05 pm

        I checked out Alpine Aviation’s website. While I couldn’t figure out the size of the water tank the large commercial truck, and we’re talking an over-the-road semi, was carrying nor the size of the fuel tank for the helo, the oil burner was rated at 260KW. Since European engines are rated in kilowatts I was able to convert that to something American. 260KW is 348 point something horsepower. And you have to run it for at least six and a half hours to heat the water in the huge tank to the required temperature to de-ice a wind turbine.

        Here we have to ignore the fact that wind turbines are equipped with vents so they don’t overheat in warm weather, which means the snow and ice is also getting inside causing failure.

        So, at this point we have a large commercial diesel-fueled truck getting as close as it can to the iced up wind turbine. Burning a heater equivalent to a 350 HP engine for close to seven hourse. Then the jet fueled helo comes into the picture. To fill it’s underbelly tank full of hot water so it can fly up and de-ice the wind turbine blades. And OBTW refuel from the truck from a separate fuel bladder as it doesn’t run on diesel. Which reduces the capacity of the truck to carry water.

        Even Alpine Aviation admits this makes no sense if the bad weather is ongoing or if no weather that will provide good wind for power production is envisioned.

        But in what world is all this diesel and jet fuel getting burned to produce wind power is even sane?

        In AOC’s and Ilhan Omar’s world where the insane is normal. There is a God! The “highly educated” who voted for Omar won’t breed per AOC’s recommendation and will soon freeze to death. Currently in Minnesota there’s a mandate that 25% of electric power must come from “renewables.” They’re already having brown outs in winter. That mandate will soon go to 50%. What do you imagine will happen then?

        Thank God I live in Texas.

        Arminius in reply to Arminius. | March 10, 2019 at 2:29 pm

        I didn’t mean to imply that I could never convert the other measurements from metric to English. What I meant was that I didn’t want to bother. My only interest was how much fuel was being burned. Fossil fuel which is a blessing.

        Sometimes I joke that the warmistas should advocate for giant sheds in which to install their precious wind turbines. And then we can build huge fossil fueled powered power plants. Which would in turn power giant blowers, which would turn the blades of their precious wind turbines.

        Then we could have their precious wind energy regardless of climactic conditions.

          What you describe is a perpetual motion machine, con artists try to sell this in various forms to people who are technically illiterate.

          Milhouse in reply to Arminius. | March 11, 2019 at 10:02 am

          No, it is not a perpetual motion machine. It would only be one if the energy you got out of it was supposed somehow to exceed what’s in the fuel you put into it. This is just a conventional fossil-fueled generator that’s particularly inefficient.

        Yep, the Red Diaper Babies appear to be in charge of our “educational system”.
        As an aside, I left the Navy back in the 70’s primarily because women weren’t allowed on navy ships . . . there were virtually no shore billets left for men–mostly sucked up by the girls. Looking at Israel it is obvious women sure could have served on American warships!!

          I hear you, brother. Your complaint is exactly what led to racial integration in the USN.

          http://www.eaglespeak.us/2011/04/sunday-ship-history-uss-sea-cloud.html

          White Sailors were PO’d during WWII. They were constantly getting pushed out to sea.

          Meanwhile black Sailors were PO’d because they were being denied combat duty. They could only enlist as mess stewards. Thank you Democrats and Woodrow Wilson!

          So we had race riots.

          And the Admirals like Nimitz and Halsey were PO’d because they couldn’t move the chess pieces around the board as they needed.They had belonged to the pre-Wilson Navy. They already knew black Sailors could do the job.

          Hence the USS Sea Cloud. She had a higher purpose than weather patrol off the coast of Greenland.

          “…And an article about a veteran of that crew, who retired as a Master Chief Boatswains Mate:
          As captain, Skinner treated all races the same, whether it was for recognition or disobedience. He gave blacks authority over whites as petty officers and chiefs if they proved qualified. . “Mr. Skinner was a very nice man, and a very fair man,” said Hammond. “We were given an opportunity to strike any rate we wanted to,” he added

          The experiment lasted little less than a year’s time, and soon the Sea Cloud was en route to a yard and her days as an active ship were numbered. But the mission proved successful, and the role of minorities in the Coast Guard would forever be changed. Skinner had made his point.”

          Minor point; during war or other emergencies the the USCG becomes part of the USN. So this is why I can claim it as par of my history, and yours, Stingray. Major point. The USS Sea Cloud proved that racial integration improved naval efficiency.

          So my challenge to you, my friend, is if sending women to sea is such a good idea, kindly prove it. Because right now the argument for everything like transvites or women (which actually are mutually exclusive if you listen to them and retain the ability to think) is based on the fact that we could do it with blacks we must be able to do it with everybody.

          Except we tried it out first. And experimented. And now we’ve lost our minds and just assume that what we (the greater we, the Molech we) want to believe is true, is true.

          As an officer my worry wasn’t how much liberty and leave you could get. Sorry.

“The Minnesota Democrat, who’s faced controversy over comments perceived recognized as anti-Semitic, got into hot water yet again…”

Fixed it for ya, Fox.

What was she thinking?

She was thinking this would go just like every other time she’s said stupid shit on camera – the media would bend over backwards to say that she didn’t say what she said.

If she hadn’t attacked Obama liberals would be gaslighting conservatives right now and agreeing that she never said it.

Who says she was thinking? She’s a liberal, after all. She was FEELING angry and put upon and arrogant and righteous.

And now that it didn’t work, she feels like her staff let her down and the media are unfair to her and righteous and arrogant.

Obungler WAS a terrible president, but not for the reasons Jihadii-not-so-hottie brother f***er says.

    Isn’t aggravating that nothing has yet come of those allegations of bigamy and immigration fraud? What does it take to get an investigation going?!

Such a trivial person. Whatever did anyone in Minnesota see in her that recommended her to represent a very stoic Midwestern culture?

Ilhan no more represents Minnesotan values than David Duke or the FarrahKlan.

Ah hell, I guess she’s probably no worse than Amy Klobuchar.

FWIW, I met Hubert Humphrey back in the day when I was still a liberal. HHH sort of became the standard by which I thought about Minnesotans.

I am delighted to say that the founders of PowerlineBlog.com are both Minnesotans. America is better for it.

    You just admitted that they’ve been covering up for her for years. So why did you claim the Jewish voters in her district knew about her when they voted for her in the primary?

      Arminius in reply to Milhouse. | March 10, 2019 at 3:32 pm

      Yes the Strib covered up for her. But at what point do you admit that information is available is, in fact, available? I submit that the Jews who voted or their Islamic overlords simply didn’t want to believe the truth that was freely available. Providing them more light would have done no good.

      BTW, this is not a criticism directed exclusively at Jews.

        Milhouse in reply to Arminius. | March 11, 2019 at 1:49 am

        When your only sources for local are the Strib and MPR, how would you ever hear of something that’s only available elsewhere?

This should surprise no one. In today’s society, we are reaping the results of the “no fault” environment we have created. No one fails. No one is responsible for their actions. Anyone can do or say whatever they want, without fear of bearing the responsibility for their words. And, to top it all off, we have two whole generations which are steeped in self righteous certainty. Omar is simply another spoiled brat empowered by a permissive, self-indulgent society. This is why there are so few 20 year old CEOs or generals.

This is what happens when you accidentally overtighten your headcovering.

Between Omar and Maxine, do we need any more evidence that the average IQ in the country is dropping. We are approaching the un-governable point and I don’t see anything reversing the trend in the near future.

There is no foul in lying by a Muslim. None. Islam has exceptions for truth telling against both non-Muslims, and Muslims. Both in the Koran.
Like all good Democrats, it is the MSM’s job to protect them from their discovered lies, duplicity and bigotry.
Muslims speak for the moment. Plan for the kill.

Shouldnt Omar be held to count under Islamic law for dissing
Obama.?
I thought Muslim women could not disrespect a Muslim Man

Next time, a phone call from your office before the Twitter ambush would be appreciated

This is probably the key sentence. The press has no trouble rationalizing a leftoid position, or ignoring and suppressing one which is totally indefensible, but the whole thing has to be coordinated.

    Good point…shouldn’t get lost in all of this schadenfreude.

      It was basically a dog whistle moment to say…I’ll write a “critical” piece of you to look objective, then we can talk and you and I can walk it back if you don’t throw a tantrum like this in the future.

      Must be nice for the Dems to have this in their pockets.

taqiyya is perfectly acceptable behavior in Moose Slime “culture”, so i don’t know why anyone is surprised by her behavior.

    ” Wallahu Khairul Makirin”

    Allah is the best of all deceivers (s3:54).

    “Are they then secure from Allah’s scheme (Makr)? None deemeth himself secure from Allah’s scheme (Makr) save folk that perish.” (S7:99)

    Makr, in Arabic, is never a good thing. For example, you could never use it if you’re planning a surprise birthday party. But in the Islamic holy or authoritative texts it’s never used that way. For instance, in Surah 3 the Jews “schemed” to kill Jesus but Allah “schemed” against the Jews that they would not. And Allah was the better “schemer.”

    Note: I am not attempting to evangelize you or anyone else. I am simply explaining where Ilhan Ohan and other Jew and Christian hating Muslims come from.

    Don’t get hung up on Taqiya. There are other forms of lying that mUSLIMS are permitted. I’m aware of Tuariya, Kithmun, and Muruna. There could be more. The point is the Bolshevik point. Whatever advances the cause.

    Red, I know you don’t believe what I believe. But I can’t hate you. Hopefully I can inform you.

America has made a potentially fatal mistake importing so many histrionic, incompetent, primitive, anti-Western socialists.

they will turn America into the incompetent, histrionic, dysfunctional sh**holes they came from.

Just had a chilling thought – if I still lived where I did in Junior & Senior High School, she’d be my congressman.

The AMERICAN citizens of Minnesota must be so PROUD of the Hateful, Bigoted, Islam loving POS they voted into public office ?!?!
