Congresswomen Ilhan Omar and Nancy Mace had a sharp and acerbic exchange after the U.S. eliminated Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, with Republican Nancy Mace saying her heart goes out to Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib. “Thoughts and prayers go out to them,” Nancy Mace wrote, mocking the two Muslim congresswomen. Ilhan Omar fired back and concluded Nancy Mays must have had too much to drink. Ilhan Omar wrote: “I hope you are not drunk and have listened to the staff’s advice, Rashida and I do not know this man and I believe he does not care about us. Please do not drink too much as your staff has warned you not to use social media while drunk. I pray that in his holy month you find peace of mind and respect for yourself.”
Nancy Mays points out a mistake in Ilhan Omar’s English, proving she’s not drunk and is actually a grammar Nazi. “Honey, it’s ‘please don’,’ not ‘please refrain.’ That’s what happens when your employees are from the third world and don’t speak proper English,” Nancy Mace wrote. Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib have both condemned U.S. attacks on Iran. “Trump has launched an illegal regime-change war. As someone who has lived through the horrors of war, I know that military strikes will not make us safer; they will increase tensions and plunge the region further into chaos. When we abandon diplomacy, we choose destruction,” Ilhan Omar wrote. “He doesn’t care about our loved ones in the military. He doesn’t care about the fact that Americans don’t want this war. He doesn’t care about the Iranian people. He has become corrupt. Don’t believe the lies,” Rashida Teliab wrote. U.S. War Secretary Pete Hegers said on Monday that the U.S. war in Iran will not be endless like in Iraq. America will not be drawn into conflict. “Four weeks, two weeks, six weeks. It could go up, it could go down,” Hegseth said of the U.S. exit strategy.
