Congresswoman Ilhan Omar’s recent rant in St. Paul — where she shockingly referred to the United States as the “U.S. goddamn States” while attacking ICE enforcement — crossed a line that should alarm every patriot. Her remarks came during a Democratic field hearing about immigration enforcement, a setting where fierce but respectful debate is expected, not the kind of contemptuous language she chose. Americans watching saw a representative of our nation publicly shame the country she swore to serve, and that betrayal matters.
Omar doubled down on her outrage by calling it “appalling” that Republican lawmakers would allow checkpoints, detentions, and aggressive ICE tactics — phrasing that confused policy critique with wholesale denouncement of American institutions. A normal criticism of law enforcement policy is legitimate; comparing our country’s actions to the brutal, lawless scenes many immigrants fled is not. This was not the measured voice of a lawmaker seeking reform but the rhetoric of someone actively undermining faith in American governance.
Newsmax host Rob Finnerty rightly tore into Omar’s remarks on his program, calling out her repeated prioritization of foreign clan loyalties and questionable behavior over patriotic duty. Finnerty’s blunt take — that Omar’s words reveal where her allegiance lies — resonated with millions who have watched for years as she attacks the country that welcomed her. Conservative viewers should not be shy about demanding higher standards from their elected officials, and Finnerty put that case plainly on national television.
The backlash was swift across conservative media and rapid response channels, with many calling Omar’s language beyond mere criticism and squarely in the realm of disrespect and ingratitude. When a member of Congress speaks of America in such derisive terms, it inflames passions and erodes the social contract that binds diverse communities together. This is not about silencing dissent; it is about insisting that those who lead us do so with loyalty, honesty, and a baseline of respect.
This episode also arrives against the backdrop of a growing scandal in Minnesota — local ICE activity, the shooting that sparked hot controversy, and broader allegations of fraud within segments of the Somali community — all of which make Omar’s rhetoric especially reckless. Instead of soothing tensions or working to restore trust, she chose to stoke division and point fingers at the nation itself. Conservatives are right to connect the dots here: when officials play politics with public safety and taxpayer trust, accountability must follow.
Patriotic Americans and principled conservatives should demand more than sanctimonious lectures from their representatives; they should demand action. Republicans in Congress and responsible voices in the media must keep pressing for investigations where warranted, call out blatant anti-Americanism when it appears, and insist that public servants honor the oath they took. If Rob Finnerty’s segment reminded viewers of anything, it’s that loyalty to country matters — and anyone who treats America with contempt should face consequences at the ballot box and in public opinion.
