Ilhan Omar condemned on social media after passionate speech supporting Somalia

Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) was harshly criticized by conservatives on social media on Sunday after a video was shared showing her speaking about her support for Somalia, the nation from which she hails.

In the video, the liberal Minnesota leader was addressing a crowd in a Minneapolis hotel when she spoke about Somaliland and the unrecognized state’s deal with Ethiopia, which Somalia alleges infringes on its territory.
