U.S. Representative Ilhan Omar said on Sunday that she is confident House Speaker Nancy Pelosi will take 'decisive action' in coming days against Republican congresswoman Lauren Boebert, for remarks about Omar that have been decried as Islamophobic.

with Boebert showing no sign of remorse. Democrats later called for the House to strip Boebert of her committee assignments for what they called anti-Muslim bigotry."I have had a conversation with the speaker, and I'm very confident that she will take decisive action next week," Omar told CNN's "State of the Union" program.

"When I first got to Congress, I was worried that I wasn't going to be allowed to be sworn in because there was a ban on the hijab. She promised me that she would take care of it. She fulfilled that promise. She's made another promise to me that she will take care of this. And I believe her."House Republican leader Kevin McCarthy defended Boebert last week, saying she had apologized publicly and personally to Omar.

An anti-Semite complaining about anti-Muslim comments….

Thoroughly a frog in the well...

Rather than merely kicking them off committees, how about moving to expel them from the House of Representatives? Yes, it’d fail, but at least you’d show you’re not doing merely symbolic measures. These subhuman scum campaign off this; they see it as a badge of honor.

Perhaps we should act against her for anti American comments.

Yawn. As if the Republicans will pay the slightest heed to Pelosi.

So she can name call and use certain language against a group...but you can't do it to her...🙄

Who'a that dementor on the pic?

Didn't few days ago a non muslim Srilankan was burnt alive and beaten to ashes in Sialkot Pakistan for standing against Pakistan Terrorist organisation. They still practice Blasphemy Is this Omar gal aware of this?

Nothing against Muslims. Just another stupid religion among many. Why does she need that thing on her head. Just one reason, to distinguish her self. Just a provocative statement. Not needed

good

Democrat and radical supporter of sharia law don’t go well together

You're not Muslim , who endorsed you as Muslim , Muslim woman doesn't marry her brother not cheat on her husband with her aide or support same-sex marriage, stop begging attention , if it wasn't America you would be starving in Somalia
