Democratic Reps. Ilhan Omar of Minnesota and Rashida Tlaib of Michigan called for the impeachment of President Trump during a Monday evening press conference to address Trump's Twitter tirade that was ostensibly directed at them.
Trump suggested in a series of tweets on Sunday that Democratic lawmakers who were unhappy with the United States should "go back" to the "crime ridden" countries that they came from.
Four female congressional freshmen, who make up the most liberal faction of the House of Representatives and are often referred to as "the squad," held a last-minute press conference to address the recent criticisms from President Trump.
