Nice find and welcome.  In the future give us a couple of lines from the source and then post the link.

Something Like:

As they say, “the internet is forever.”

In the past 24 hours or so, an October 2012 reply to a now deleted tweet from Congresswoman Ilhan Omar (D-MN) has surfaced, stating, “we are citizens & can’t be deported, why don’t we deport you to where ever you came from.”

The rather long tweet/reply thread with several people replying (with many replies since being deleted) appears to have started with a Somalian woman providing a link to a Yahoo! News article which Omar undoubtedly found offensive.   

"Maine mayor: Somalis should leave culture at door"
