New York Post
Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) claimed the disturbing syringe attack against her was motivated by anger over not enough Somalis being deported – and suggested President Trump is to blame for the assault.
“He wanted to come get the person he thought was protecting the Somalis,” Omar said of the 55-year-old suspect Anthony Kazmierczak.
3 Omar blamed Trump for a surge of death threats against her.
Omar was uninjured in the attack and continued her remarks at the town hall a few moments after the incident.
The president later told ABC News that Omar “probably had herself sprayed, knowing her.”The White House did not immediately respond to The Post’s request for comment.
