Between 1915 and 1923, the Ottoman Empire (present day Turkey) expelled and slaughtered 1.5 million ethnic Armenians. Academics consider it the first modern day genocide due to the Ottoman's articulate organization of said genocide. Turkey has fought against using the word genocide, but anyone with at least one brain cell knows it's a classic case of genocide. Our Congress passed a resolution to recognize the Armenian genocide, 405-111. Three representatives, including Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN), voted present. She provided a disgusting justification.

Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) officially filed for divorce from her husband Ahmed Hirsi. They have three children. The rumors of a split began in August when a woman claimed Omar stole her husband.

Sunday, Rep. Ilhan Omar joined Face the Nation where she used the platform to promote the boycott, divest, and sanction movement (BDS) against Israel, though she denies supporting the movement while running for office.

A man scorned? It's hard to keep track of the scandals surrounding Rep. Ilhan Omar, but the most recent (alleged) affair is nasty and looks to be growing worse -- the one involving an alleged extra-marital affair between Rep. Omar and political consultant Tim Mynett.

Yesterday, Israel denied visas for Reps. Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib, after pressure from Trump, under a law permitting the government to bar entry to advocates of the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) movement. The decision kicked off a firestorm, including false accusations by former Democrat Vice Presidential candidate and current Senator Tim Kaine that Israel had imposed a "Muslim ban".

Anti-Israel representatives Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib, both of whom support the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) movement (though they denied that while running for office), are planning a trip to Israel. BDS is widely recognized as anti-Semitic and subterfuge for the destruction of Israel. Both also credibly have been accused of making anti-Semitic statements themselves.

On Tuesday, Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) spoke at the Muslim Caucus Education Collective 2019 Conference in Washington, D.C. about a wide variety of issues relevant to the Muslim community. During the question and answer part of the conference, Ani Zonneveld, who is the founder of Muslims for Progressive Values, asked Omar about the issue of female genital mutilation. Omar found the question, "appalling."

In 2018, Al Jazeera asked then-Congressional candidate Ilhan Omar about American fears of jihadist terrorism. She told the network that people should fear white men more than jihadist terrorism. Of course, she's not only racially profiling, she's adding the concept of race as a comparison to jihadist terrorism, which is not a "race." It's just fascinating that we're seeing this for the first time now.

When it comes to the well-documented anti-Semitism of Reps. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) and Rashida Tlaib (D-MI), Rep. Lee Zeldin (R-NY) has been unafraid to push back against their actions and question their claims. For instance, Zeldin, who is Jewish, gave a blistering floor speech in March in which he slammed the sham "anti-hate" resolution passed by House Democrats in response to repeated instances involving Omar's use of anti-Semitic tropes. He said, in part:
