Washington - Ilhan Omar, the congresswoman President Trump’s chanting mob would deport to Africa, sat onstage Tuesday with fellow Muslims, before an audience of Muslims, taking questions from Muslims.
The head of a group called Muslims for Progressive Values rose to say that "it would be really powerful if the two Muslim congresswomen" -- Omar, D-Minn., and Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich. -- spoke out against the practice of female genital mutilation.
Omar silenced the room by calling the question "appalling." Noting that she already "put out statements upon statements" on the topic, she said she's "quite disgusted, to be honest, that as Muslim legislators we are constantly being asked to waste our time speaking to issues that other people are not asked to speak to.
