I don't give a rip about Omar's feelings. To compare this to China's treatment of foreigners is a stretch to say the least!!

[nkfd]

The funny thing about Boebert was she never specifically said anything against Islam. Illhan drew those conclusions herself, and now Lauren is running around feeling like she needs to apologize to her? Gimme a break...

[MichaelSmith-imjn]

How about a Congressial rule that says you must hold Congress and the Constitution of the United States as the law of the land.

[lostinpa-dadenduro]

She should not have apologized. It’s just putting chum in the water.

[aaronmarsh]

Omar needs to be questioned about her actions. Marrying her brother? Will we ever have congress hold a public hearing on that?

[aliciai.]

It would be so nice if the Dems defended Christianity the way they do Islam.

[etxhunter]

I'll tell you what puts a stain on Congress, having representatives that don't do crap for their constituents. Representatives that spend more time working on things they make themselves more important or that benefit them, not their constituents. Take a bow Democratic Party!

[numerounoamerica]

Boebert is an actual real representative of her constuients. She made a comment and apologized.

[joe.oneill]

What about Omar's remarks about Police and Whites Mr. McGovern? Care to mention Maxine Waters' trip to Minnesota during the Chauvin trial?

Lauren Boebert's remarks were immature and unprofessional. Just as much as Ilhan Omar's and Maxine Waters'.

You are ALL acting like a bunch of 5 year old children having a mass temper tantrum. You ALL need to take a time out and grow up QUICKLY or we will be giving all of you a PERMANENT time out come midterms.

[shanenolan]

Ridiculous. Especially given what others in the house have said in recent years.

[whiteprivilege]

Let's go Brandon 🏳️ joe your a coward

[captainmidnight]

We all remember Omar’s comment, some people did something !

[useridwitheld]

All smoke and lights to distract yes because some ppl did something

[AD-mqny]

Family reunions at the Ilhan house must be weird. Especially when the ex-husband/brother shows up. Hahahahaah

[debrasartini]

I'm from Massachusetts McGovern is a joke

[derspeed]

Suddenly there is condemnation. Where has this guy been?

[josephhogg]

Yet the squad gets away with way more but yet nothing is done get real what's good for one should go for all

[larryog]

thats nice no one cares about how they said Palestine should be able to blow up Israel, and they said that on the floor... pathetic

[Aldur]

Comments are but not brother husbands for criminal reasons?

[talee]

The happiest I’ve felt in months was hearing Lauren’s comments about Omar. Stick to your guns, sister! You have NOTHING to apologize for! You speak for Coloradans and many, many others! Also, that was funny AF.
