Dem Rep. Omar vows 'whole system' of U.S. economy must be gutted due to 'oppression'

She’s right that our economy needs to be reconstructed. Our biggest issue will be getting past the rampant illiteracy on the topic. That is going to take a while so don’t hold your breath.

 

Has the veil been ripped off:

 

Omar is a nobody you Trumpers keep propping up.

You'd better move your money overseas because the U.S. is going to be taken over by "Post-Modern Progressives."

 

She might be right about the need for reform, but Omar doesn't have a clue about what to do.

 

They stand a great chance of taking over the Senate and the White House.

 

Lets see, they went ape shi& over Russia. They tried a impeachment that was that didn't have any evidence. They hitched their wagon to the BLM and riots. Yea they're totally going to win.

 

Pray for Lacy in November. I don't think Minneapolis will ever go for a Republican though. Minneapolis is toast, probably permanently. They'll vote Ilhan back in as long as she wants to be in power which will be permanently.

Business owners and wealth will flee the city in droves in the next few years.

 

Just a helpful hint, 'von' (which is German for 'of') is an article of nobility and is only an addition to a person's name. Therefore, the 'v' remains uncapitalized.

 

That has been the goal all along. Tear down the whole system and rebuild it into some sort of leftists utopia.

 

Are you forced to do what you do? If not, you're not oppressed.

I have three young adult kids all raking in the dough in their part-time (they're all students) jobs. Low hourly rates, but they save almost every cent. The 'system' is therefore working well for them - because they make it work for them. They're not special, they don't have advantages, they simply torque whatever they can get, into future financial security. It's because they don't have advantages, that they want to do this. They don't have rich parents!

 

She's not trolling, she's serious.

Her end vision and means to that end remind one of Mogadishu. Glorious it will be too, clan-based militia policing Minneapolis and vying to run Ilhan's campaign to insure proper voting.

 

One man, one vote, One Time. Long live Ilhan!

 

Yes I know that put I got tired of fighting my spell checker.

 

If that is your argument I feel terrible for who taught you how to argue. You cite a success story while you ignore everyone else drowning amongst you? Do you see a tree and proclaim the desert is the forest as well? I mentioned the people in the meat industry oppressed and you cite one person? Did it not dawn on you I will tell you that you statistics matter moreso? She got lucky and was able to get to where she is in society not because of society but in spite of her. The political conditions were right for her to run and win. Not because the society isn't oppressive, but because the political conditions enabled her to run.

If you think the option of those who say your wealth is built off the backs of their labor is to run and flee, then I am sorry to inform you that your ears must be cleaned of the filth blocking out the pleas from those below you. They're on the streets right now, protesting what society you envision as just. How do you justify ignoring their pleas?

Yes I am forced to do what I do. Really? Why can they work despite them being so young? Not everyone can have that privilege. How do they get to work? Do they ask you for the family car keys to go to work, do they have the physical body to cycle to work like I did? Or maybe you're going to say they pay for every penny of their lives, despite the fact they have the knowledge they know. You forget something as simple as hope is not always there. Why should they work, unless they believe in tomorrow, and why do they believe in tomorrow? I simply ask that of you, can you explain why they believe in tomorrow when so many around not in your family don't? You'll say something along the lines of they're morally inferior to you and you alone. While of course ignoring the despair that surrounds them. That's not a stable position, that's willful ignorance.

 

"Everyone else" is not drowning amongst me. I'm not sure that even makes any sense.

If I see a tree in the desert, I don't proclaim a forest. I see a lot of sand and figure out a way to make and sell sandcastles. The tree isn't the opportunity. The sand is.

Your statistics question is unintelligible.
Omar didn't get lucky. She took advantage of opportunities and conditions, yes. Even if her politics are wrong-headed and very destructive, I will give her credit that she probably worked long and hard hours to get her education and polish her speaking style. Some people do benefit by luck, but fortune does not just fall into peoples' lap. Luck alone is not enough for success. People who work very hard tend to get ahead.

All societies have poor people and rich people. Western societies, though imperfect, are the least oppressive societies in the world. Which country could you go to and do better than here?

Not sure I entirely catch your drift there, but I think you're saying that if the wealthy are over-taxed and can't afford the costs of labor or they are too constrained with government regulations, then they tend to move away to somewhere more affordable. If that's what you meant, then yes, that is how the economics of business works. My ears are pretty clean, by the way.

Many of the people who are protesting on the streets sincerely believe they are protesting for human rights or police reform or recognition that black and LGBTQ people want attention. That's fine. The leadership behind the movement, however, wishes to destroy the most just society ever created in world history and replace it with a truly oppressive authoritarian system. They are funded by some of the wealthiest, most oppressive people in the world. I will not ignore their pleas. I will actively vote against them gaining one ounce of political power.

 

Tucker lit UP Omar tonight.

 

Lit up?

How?

Carlson has ZERO Credibility and he is referring to that Stephen Miller Propaganda (that Trump Mindlessly PARROTED in Dakota) as a "Great Speech"?

From that clip, the only thing that got "Lit Up" was Carlson's Mindless Lack of Credibility.

Tucker Carlson?

 

Watch the clip to find out.

 

So?

Do you actually support Carlson's Despicable, Racist, Misogynistic, Attack on an America-Loving Disabled Decorated War Veteran?

I hope not.

Analysis: Tucker Carlson's attempt to smear senator who lost both legs in Iraq War crosses the line

Wow.:smh:

Hopefully that ISN'T the case.

But, feel free to go on the record (if you wish)

Here is your opportunity.

 

Lol she's a fraud. She also complained about Mr. Rushmore but was fine dressing up as Mt. Rushmore for Halloween one year.

And of course as Tucker points out-Washington was a war veteran too.

 

Is this the same woman that broke up a family cheating on her brother/husband with a married man that she recently married after divorcing her brother/husband and then paid new lover/husband $878,000.00 form her campaign coffers?

Ilhan Omar has paid $878G to new husband’s consulting firm, data show: report

Now, campaign data show Omar has paid Tim Mynett’s consulting firm a total of more than $878,000 since 2018 – including $189,000 just weeks after the couple announced they were husband and wife, the New York Post reported.

In the first quarter of this year, Mynett’s E Street Group has received more than $292,000 from Omar’s campaign for digital advertising, fundraising consulting and research services, the Star Tribune of Minneapolis reported in April, citing data from the Federal Election Commission (FEC).

Omar’s campaign is her husband’s firm’s biggest client by far, Open Secrets data suggest – with E Street Group receiving about one-third of all the Democrat’s campaign cash, the Washington Examiner reported.

Yeah, she's a piece of work.

 

Red herring? Straw man? Moving goal posts or just outright diversion? I am trying real hard to figure out what Tucker Carlson and Tammy Duckworth has to do with Omar. Red herring much? I smell desperation when people do that. Are you that desperate to change the subject?

 

How many posts can you count in this thread that criticize Ilhan Omar for being an African refugee?

 

And yet in the middle of a deadly virus, in the middle of mass unrest, the rise of terrorism in the US, you say you see the forest and build a treehouse. Less your eyes decieve you. Look around you and you will see the number of people drowning.

And many people work hard, yet she did it. Why should you think her success is statistically significant? People who work hard do not tend to get ahead, instead those born rich, stay rich while everyone else gets poor and stays poor. Simple statistics tell us that.

Western Europe, Canada, Japan, Chile, and even then? The US since the early 2010's has been becoming less democratic. The polity score for the U.S. is around 7.5 with 6 being considered a democracy. We are becoming more oppressive. We have structure society to make it that way. When the UN did a human rights report on the US, they found that we were incapable of providing our most vulnerable citizens with clean drinking water. The most powerful economy in the world, can not summon the political capital to take care of its poor? Why is that? For I do not think conservatives want to answer that question.

No, because that's not how the economy works. It completely ignores the political economy that makes such decisions possible. A business will not move overseas where labor is cheaper, but where the government there allows it to be cheaper.

The most just society in the world? We put refugees into cages to deter other refugees from coming here. What sort of example is that? You don't know what authoritarian is because you benefit from the system in place. Simple as that. Would you really want to get rid of a government even if it was authoritarian, if it meant you would have food on your dinner plate? Would you give up your drinking water to give it to a person who has not drank in days? Could you imagine how much suffering you cause others, simply because you do not understand the echoes you make?

 

Poor deluded woman, perhaps she should see a doctor.
