‘Part of the fascist playbook’: Ilhan Omar condemns Trump DHS raid on her home
US Rep. Ilhan Omar on Monday forcefully condemned the
Department of Homeland Security’s raid on her Washington, DC home
as part of a broader effort to weaponize federal law enforcement
against progressives who oppose Donald Trump’s agenda.
“This is part of the fascist playbook
to rile up Trump’s die-hard supporters
and give them a big distraction in advance of the midterms,”
Omar (D-Minn.) wrote in an email
distributed by the Progressive Change Campaign Committee hours after the raid.
“With this obviously political investigation,
Trump is telling his voters:
‘Ignore the price of gas,
ignore the war in Iran,
ignore that you’re losing your healthcare
—we want you to get angry about this instead.’”
