Tyler Robinson, 22, who authorities say espoused leftist views and was in a relationship with a transgender partner, has been charged with aggravated murder and other offenses in the killing of Charlie Kirk, a father of two, at Utah Valley University.
The zinger — delivered after Omar’s string of vicious tirades against slain Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk — drew laughs and applause from Vice President JD Vance, FBI Director Kash Patel, Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt, and other top officials who clearly enjoyed the shot, the New York Post reported.

One day after Charlie Kirk was fatally shot at an outdoor speaking event in Utah on Sept. 10, Omar criticized the widespread tributes to Kirk and denounced what she described as his “hateful rhetoric.”
“There are a lot of people who are talking about him just wanting to have a civil debate,” Omar told the progressive outlet Zeteo. “These people are full of s— and it’s important for us to call them out while we feel anger and sadness.”
She later posted a separate video on X criticizing Democrats and celebrities for “normalizing Kirk,” calling the Trump ally a “reprehensible human being” and a “stochastic terrorist.”
Omar reiterated her criticism during an appearance on CNN. “I’m not going to sit here and be judged for not wanting to honor any legacy this man has left behind, that should be in the dustbin of history, and we should hopefully move on and forget the hate that he spewed every day,” she complained.
Rep. Nancy Mace (R-S.C.) introduced a measure to censure Omar, accusing her of “celebrating murder,” but the resolution was narrowly defeated last week after four House Republicans joined Democrats in opposition.
It failed 214–213, preventing the measure from reaching a full House vote. Reps. Mike Flood of Nebraska, Tom McClintock of California, Jeff Hurd of Colorado, and Cory Mills of Florida — joined Democrats in supporting the move.
In a statement to Explain America’s Carmine Sabia, Mace ripped Omar over her remarks. “If you’re Somalia first, you’re not America first, and a one-way ticket to Somalia is the nicest thing we could do,” she said.
Earlier, in a response to Omar, Mace posted on the X platform: “If you celebrate murder, maybe Somalia can take you back.”
In a statement to Fox News Digital, Mace said Omar mocked the assassination of Kirk, who was a husband and father of two.
“Now she’s lashing out because we called her out. What’s not ‘well’ is celebrating political violence,” Mace said. “What’s not ‘smart’ is defending it. Omar should be ashamed of herself. Omar can throw insults all day, but it won’t save her from accountability. She crossed the line, and we’re not letting her get away with it. Go back to Somalia.”
Pro golfer Phil Mickelson also criticized Omar for her remarks about Kirk, saying she should be “sent back” to her native East African country.
“Ilhan spews hate every time she opens her mouth, she came here fraudulently and will hopefully be sent back to Somalia soon,” the LIV Tour golfer wrote on X. The three-time Masters champ’s remarks were in response to a video of the left-wing politician calling Kirk “Dr. Frankenstein” and saying he “was killed by his monster.”

President Trump took a jab Thursday at Rep. Ilhan Omar, saying he told Somali President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud to “take back” the left-wing Democrat after she spewed what he called vile remarks about the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk.
I met the head of Somalia, did you know that?” Trump told reporters in the Oval Office. “And I suggested that maybe he’d like to take her back. And he said, ‘I don’t want her.’”

Tourists visiting the world’s largest cliff swing thought they were in for the ultimate adrenaline rush — but what happened next left everyone stunned.
The swing, which dangles hundreds of feet above a scenic canyon, promises breathtaking views and an unforgettable thrill. But as visitors soared back and forth over the edge, a sudden mishap turned the fun into a heart-stopping moment.

Moment Ilhan Omar Tries to Embarrass Rand Paul and Marjorie Taylor Greene Backfires Brutally
Washington, D.C. – July 29, 2025 – A fiery exchange on the House floor last week has sparked intense debate after Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) attempted to call out Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) and Rep.
Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) over their criticisms of her stance on international issues, only to face a swift and pointed rebuttal that left her visibly rattled.
The confrontation, which unfolded during a debate on foreign policy, has been described by political observers as a brutal backfire for Omar, amplifying tensions between the progressive “Squad” member and her conservative critics.
The incident began when Omar, speaking on a resolution concerning U.S. foreign aid, took aim at Paul and Greene for what she called “hypocritical attacks” on her advocacy for human rights and criticism of certain U.S. allies.
Referencing Paul’s 2019 offer to buy her a plane ticket to Somalia to “appreciate America more” and Greene’s repeated accusations of Omar being a “foreign agent,” Omar accused the pair of using xenophobic rhetoric to silence her voice.
“They attack me for my heritage, not my ideas,” Omar declared, suggesting their criticisms were rooted in prejudice rather than policy disagreements.
Omar’s remarks appeared intended to expose Paul and Greene’s rhetoric as unbefitting serious lawmakers, but the strategy quickly unraveled.
Paul, known for his libertarian-leaning foreign policy views, responded via a statement on X, saying, “Rep. Omar’s selective outrage on human rights ignores her own support for policies that undermine U.S. interests.I offered a trip to Somalia to highlight the contrast between freedom here and chaos there—not her identity.” Paul’s measured response shifted the focus back to Omar’s record, particularly her support for the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) movement against Israel, which Paul and others have criticized as divisive.Greene, never one to shy away from confrontation, took to the House floor later that day with a scathing retort.
Citing Omar’s 2019 tweet referencing “the Benjamins” in relation to U.S. support for Israel—a comment widely criticized as invoking an antisemitic trope—Greene accused Omar of projecting her own controversies onto others.
“The Congresswoman wants to talk about embarrassing? Let’s talk about her apologizing for antisemitic remarks, then doubling down on anti-American rhetoric,” Greene said, referencing Omar’s past statements and her recent comments at a Minneapolis event that critics, including Greene, falsely claimed prioritized Somalia over U.S. interests.
The backlash was amplified by a viral clip circulating on X, where users praised Greene’s fiery delivery and Paul’s calm rebuttal, with some calling Omar’s attempt “a self-own of epic proportions.”
One post, garnering thousands of likes, stated, “Omar thought she could dunk on
MTG and Rand Paul, but they flipped the script. She’s the one looking foolish now.” The online sentiment underscored the perception that Omar’s attack misfired, drawing attention to her own controversial history rather than discrediting her opponents.
Omar’s office pushed back, with a spokesperson stating, “The Congresswoman’s remarks were about holding leaders accountable for divisive rhetoric, not engaging in personal attacks.
The distortions of her record are a distraction from real policy debates.” However, the defense did little to quell the narrative, as conservative outlets and social media amplified Greene’s and Paul’s responses.
A YouTube video titled “Marjorie Taylor Greene TOTALLY HUMILIATES Ilhan Omar” racked up millions of views, further cementing the perception of Omar’s misstep.
The episode highlights the ongoing feud between Omar and her Republican critics, who have frequently targeted her as a Somali-American Muslim woman in Congress.
Greene has a history of inflammatory accusations against Omar, including false claims of marriage fraud and supporting terrorism, while Paul’s 2019 comments drew condemnation for their insensitivity.
Yet, Omar’s attempt to frame their criticisms as purely xenophobic appeared to backfire by giving them a platform to reiterate their policy-based objections, however exaggerated or misleading.
Political analysts note that Omar’s strategy underestimated the ability of Paul and Greene to turn the narrative. “Omar aimed to expose their rhetoric but ended up rehashing old controversies,” said Dr. Sarah Klein, a political scientist at Georgetown University.
“In a polarized climate, these exchanges rarely change minds—they just entrench existing divides.” As the dust settles, Omar’s attempt to embarrass her critics has instead fueled their supporters, leaving her on the defensive in a high-stakes political showdown.
