Rep. Ilhan Omar’s daughter declared during a video livesteam that American soldiers are “bitches” who are “furthering American imperialism” and “actively killing innocent children abroad.”
Omar’s 17-year-old daughter Isra Hirsi made the comments during a TikTok live video captured by conservative activist CJ Pearson.
“I know this is a joke, but the fact that these men are calling me a bitch when they are actively killing innocent children abroad and also furthering US imperialism makes me think that they are actually the bitch,” Hirsi said during the livestream.
The video quickly went viral, with many calling for Rep. Ilhan Omar to comment about whether or not she shares her daughter’s views.
Thegatewaypundit.com reports: Hirsi may be young, but she is already an engaged and influential political activist and co-founder and executive director of the U.S. Youth Climate Strike — the American arm of the global youth climate change movement. She has been featured in glowing profiles in Time Magazine, Jacobin and Vice Magazine, among others.
The congresswoman’s daughter launched U.S. Youth Climate Strike the same month that her mother was sworn into office.
