Fox News host Tucker Carlson ended his show on Tuesday with an attack on Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.), claiming that she hates America and is “living proof that the way we practice immigration has become dangerous to this country.”
“Ilhan Omar has an awful lot to be grateful for, but she isn’t grateful, not at all. After everything America has done for Omar and for her family, she hates this country more than ever,” said Carlson, before launching into vicious rhetoric.
In response to Carlson, Omar tweeted that it was “kinda fun watching a racist fool like this weeping about my presence in Congress.”
Not gonna lie, it’s kinda fun watching a racist fool like this weeping about my presence in Congress ??
No lies will stamp out my love for this country or my resolve to make our union more perfect.

Carlson also insisted that Omar “hates this country more than ever” and that “virtually every public statement she makes accuses Americans of bigotry and racism.”
“This is an immoral country, she says. She has undisguised contempt for the United States and for its people. That should worry you, and not just because Omar is now a sitting member of Congress,” he told his viewers.
Barry Obama tilted our great country with barrycare. Every worker lost full time, and the best workers lost their ability for overtime. Their chance to work for the job they could live with was subrigated. A true shut down to show the world how and why we are the alpha republic.
