Squad member gives blunt response when asked why Dems are celebrating political violence after Kirk's death
Story by Alec Schemmel • 1h
Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., who is part of the cohort of progressive Democrat lawmakers on Capitol Hill known as "the Squad," denied that Democrat voters were celebrating political violence in the wake of slain conservative activist Charlie Kirk's assassination.
In video footage obtained by Fox News Digital, Omar was asked about her thoughts on Democratic voters celebrating the death of Kirk and cheering on political violence in the wake of his assassination.
"Are you concerned with the rhetoric coming from the Democratic base regarding the Charlie Kirk assassination?" Omar was asked, to which she did not respond. "Why are Democratic voters celebrating political violence?" Omar was then asked again.

"I don't think anybody is," Omar shot back.
But, evidence appears to show that many folks have been facing repercussions over their decision to mock, or praise, Kirk's death. This includes K-12 education officials, college professors, healthcare professionals, political pundits, writers and a list of other professionals from various sectors and major companies, such as the law firm Perkins Coie, the company behind the New York Stock Exchange, NASDAQ, and Office Depot, among others.
