US State Rep. Demands GOP Leaders Address Anti-Muslim Rhetoric
Channel: Atheist Republic
Date: 2021-12-07

Over the Thanksgiving holiday, Colorado Republican House Representative Lauren Boebert made incendiary statements where she likened Representative Ilhan Omar of Minnesota to a suicide bomber. Shortly before this incident, during a speech on the floors of congress, she called Rep. Omar a member of the “Jihad Squad.” Omar quickly called for house leaders to take action against Lauren Boebert. To demonstrate the impact of Boebert’s rhetoric, she played a recording of a death threat left on her voicemail during a news conference. She also asked House Republican leaders to address the anti-muslim sentiments held in their ranks. “When a sitting member of Congress calls a colleague a member of the ‘jihad squad’ and falsifies a story to suggest I will blow up the Capitol, it is not just an attack on me but millions of American Muslims across the country,” Omar said. “We cannot pretend this hate speech from leading politicians doesn’t have real consequences,” she added. Boebert has apologized to the American Muslim community, has not yet apologized to Omar personally.
