Trump Attacks Omar, Walz Over Immigration
Donald Trump, the President of the United States, has been making some mean and false claims about Congresswoman Ilhan Omar and Governor Tim Walz.
He said Omar married her brother to come to America and that she entered the country illegally.
He also made some hurtful comments about her hijab and her home country, Somalia.
Trump has said these things before, and fact-checkers have found them to be not true.
Omar has denied these claims and said they are just attempts to distract from important issues.
Trump also wants to stop special protections for Somalis living in Minnesota, which many people disagree with.
He even joked about sending Omar back to Somalia, but she said she is a grown woman and can live wherever she wants.
Meanwhile, Governor Walz hit back at Trump by asking him to release his MRI results, which Trump had mentioned were very good.
Donald Trump repeated baseless claims that Ilhan Omar married her brother to gain US citizenship and entered the US illegally.
Trump made derogatory remarks about Omar's hijab and described Somalia as a 'decadent, backward, and crime-ridden' country.
Trump announced plans to terminate Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for Somalis in Minnesota, drawing immediate pushback.
Governor Tim Walz responded to Trump's 'seriously retarded' remark by asking him to release his MRI results.
Ilhan Omar dismissed Trump's claims, stating she is a US citizen and can live wherever she wants.
