    WHILE ILHAN OMAR IS BUSY RUNNING HER OWN MIDEAST FOREIGN POLICY: Minnesota’s 5th Congressional District Listed As Worst District For Black Americans To Live.

    24/7 Wall Street compiled a list of the 30 worst districts for black Americans by using data from the U.S. Census Bureau; median-household income, homeownership, unemployment, poverty, and educational achievement.​

    “Black area residents are about four times more likely to live below the poverty line than white residents and three times more likely to be unemployed, Minneapolis enacted restrictive housing covenants and exclusionary zoning policies in the early 20th century. These policies impact residential patterns to this day.”​

    But if you can’t indulge your Jew-hatred, what’s the fun of being a Congresswoman?

    Should Omar be agitating against Israel or working to improve the conditions of her constituents?

    She’d rather destroy her perceived enemies than help her allies.

    It’s in her bitter nature to attack.

    Poverty is a dream come true for right-wing socialists: Redistribution of wealth from the poor and the middle class and letting as little as possible trickle-down.

    Perhaps if she spent less time marrying her brother and more time working for her constituents, things would be better there.

    How about this...

    IF the voters of her district don't like it, THEN they are free to vote her out next year...

    Problem solved. :salute:

    But, since the voters of her district just put her in power 7.5 months ago, I suppose they might give her the courtesy of the full 2 years before they punt.... Surely this district was in trouble well before she was elected.....

    Remember the old adage "Trump Tower Moscow wasn't built in a day"

    It's funny how the right seems to be afraid of go-getters like Omar and Talib.... you don't see any on the left (or center) afraid of Steve King or Louie Gohmert (I'll stop at 2, although naming ineffective Republican Congresspeople is like eating Lays Potato Chips....hard to stop at only a few)

    Omar should win Re-Election.

    Tlaib has an uphill fight against a Black Primary Opponent (with unified support).

    Sure can, when that poor person has enough capital to purchase good and services.

    In other words, demand creates employment, not giving some fat, lazy, good-for-nothing, corporate welfare queen, like Crooked Donnie, more government welfare.

    Being the district with the greatest number of Muslim extremist terrorist recruits then I don't think there is another candidate that is more pro ISIS than Omar.

    FBI statistics reveal that Minnesota’s fifth congressional district, which is represented by Rep. Ilhan Omar and includes the urban area of Minneapolis, is the jurisdiction with the highest rate of terrorist recruitment in the United States.

    Sounds like the American-hating bigot, Third-World Donnie, wants to bring Somali values to the US: A country with lots of poor people with guns.

    More to fear from some white, right-wing terrorist than some fake Muslim right-wing terrorist in this country.
    White nationalism-fueled violence is on the rise, but FBI is slow to call it domestic terrorism
    When the feds choose not to classify attacks carried out by white nationalists as domestic terrorism, investigations into these crimes are stripped of resources.

    Really?? Not what I'm reading, AJ

    Don't want to post the entire article, but read the paragraph starting with - "That suggests that none of the four is particularly vulnerable to a primary challenger either"

    https://fivethirtyeight.com/feature...esnt-have-to-worry-about-primary-challengers/

    Sounds like Detroit likes her.... And Trump HATES her, so I LOVE her...

    Then why do the Democrats insist on pursuing impeachment? Just let the voters decide next year.

    What gave anyone the impression that Omar cared about blacks? This woman only cares about replacing the existing population.

    So you think that a Congressman should only be bringing in the bacon for his/ her district and be on the pork train to get more money. How about taking take of the country's business?
