New Republican House Speaker Kevin McCarthy was recently sworn into his position on January 7th 2023 after days of deliberation on voting for the California Representative by Republicans and Democrats in the House.
To no surprise Democrats were seriously displeased with the acceptance of McCarthy as House Speaker and Minnesota Democrat Rep. Ilhan Omar was one of the biggest opposers of this vote.
“McCarthy just agreed to a deal with far right insurrectionists that would hold the entire US and global economy hostage to extreme cuts to everything from housing to education, healthcare, Social Security and Medicare,” Omar wrote. “Hard to overstate how dangerous this is.”

Following her tweet, Omar was met with massive criticism from conservatives.
Comedians and conservative commentators, the HodgeTwins, tweeted “Dangerous freedom > peaceful slavery,” in response to Omar’s comments.

Comedian Tim Young took an unwarranted shot at Omar’s culture asking, “Is it as dangerous as marrying your brother?”

“Democrats just pushed through a $1.7 Trillion Omnibus Bill, and you’re worried about spending more money already. Sounds like that deal was needed!” said political commentator Vic DeGrammont.
