In a chaotic moment outside the Capitol, Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) — trailed by a mob of cameramen and reporters — stopped in the middle of Independence Avenue, shut down two lanes of traffic and gave an impromptu news conference responding to Trump supporters who chanted at President Trump's rally Wednesday that she should leave the country.

"I am not [scared for my safety]. What I'm scared for is the safety for people who share my identity,” Omar told a gaggle of journalists on Thursday.

"This is not about me. This is about fighting for what this country should be and what it deserves to be."


CNN's Manu Raju recorded video of reporters asking questions to Omar.

She overplayed her hand here. But that's what marxists do - dramatic displays of emotion and chaos, and grind everyone elses day to a halt.

What a craven, opportunistic drama queen.

I tell you.  If some leftist antifa muzzie type like her stops traffic and one my loved ones suffers adversely or dies waiting in an ambulance?

Can you say speed bump?
