WATCH: Ilhan Omar Calls Trump ‘Xenophobic Tyrant,’ Accuses Him of ‘Terror’
Omar is upset about Trump’s travel ban from seven majority-Muslim nations.
An embattled freshman congresswoman from Minnesota bashed President Donald J. Trump, calling him a “tyrant” Wednesday over his policy of banning travel from seven majority-Muslim nations.
“We’re here to say, in this country, we are no longer going to stand for a xenophobic tyrant to continuously reign terror on our communities,” Rep Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) said.

“What we are saying is that this policy that is going to be a stain on our history once and for all needs to end,” she said later.
Trump’s policy was challenged, but ultimately upheld by the Supreme Court.
Another point of contention for Omar and her fellow leftist youngsters in Congress is what is now being described as a “crisis” at the U.S. Southern border, despite the fact that the political left denied there was any crisis at all months ago in order to spite Trump’s efforts to secure the border. The lawmakers are upset about living conditions of illegal aliens and migrants detained on the southern border, though the policy for housing such people has not significantly changed since the Obama administration. Still, Democrats like Omar are ascribing what they perceive as inhumane treatment of migrants to Trump.
Omar has been engulfed in scandal since mainstream right-wing media finally picked up a story first reported by conservative Minnesota blogs in 2016, and then subsequently by Big League Politics in 2018. There is significant evidence to show that Omar might have married her brother in an immigration fraud scheme, as well as evidence of potential tax fraud.

Democrat Congressmen Introduce Term Limits Legislation for SCOTUS Justices As Trump Prepares Nominee
Interesting timing.
Three Democrat members of Congress are introducing legislation to institute term limits for Supreme Court justices, as President Trump prepares to nominate his third candidate for the court following the death of progressive liberal Ruth Bader Ginsburg.
Democrats Joe Kennedy, Ro Khanna, and Don Beyer are proposing legislation that would limit SCOTUS justice to a maximum term of eighteen years on the court.
Lifetime appointments to the highest court in our land undermine our democratic process and erode progress in our nation.
We must enact 18 year term limits on our Supreme Court justices to continue our march towards a more perfect union. https://t.co/9fCyggP686

Khanna has proposed an idea that would allow Presidents to appoint two judges in each term. “Senior” members of the court would be required to basically retired for every new member of the court.
When I first ran for Congress in 2014, I proposed limiting terms of Supreme Court Justice to 18-appointments.
Given the recent, dramatic politicization of the Court, it's time for real reform.
Here's how the bill @RoKhanna @RepJoeKennedy and I are introducing would work: https://t.co/qoVgXPKGV3

It’s pretty funny the Democrats are uniting behind these proposals the moment they appear primed to lose control of the Supreme Court for a generation. They weren’t complaining when Obama was trying to replace Antonin Scalia with progressive Merrick Garland, even going so far as claiming that the stealth liberal was entitled to the seat. Reports emerging Friday suggest that President Donald Trump intends to nominate Amy Coney Barrett, a mostly conservative judge with a pro-life and immigration hawk judicial record.
The judicial branch of government is arguably the most flawed element of American governance, and it’s highly questionable how institutions such as the Supreme Court are able to appoint themselves a nearly unlimited amount of political power.
A better reform proposals would be to institute term limits for justices that only go into effect after the current members of the court vacate their seats. Anything else is simply a political power grab.
