The Squirt Heard ‘Round the World
Derek Hunter
I enjoy a good salad, but my go-to for dressing is either olive oil and either red wine vinegar or 18-month-aged balsamic. I know, a snob, right? But I don’t eat it with my pinky out, so there’s that.
I bring this up not to discuss which type of cheese to use with each vinegar (feta with red wine, parmesan with balsamic are the easiest, for the record), but to point out that I am not a connoisseur of apple cider vinegars, so I don’t really know what was going through the head of that weirdo who squirted a flavor injector syringe of the stuff on an ugly sweater Ilhan Omar was wearing Tuesday night, but I suspect it was drugs.
OK, I suspect it was either drugs or hoping he’d remember his cue and things would go as well as they did in rehearsal.
I’m not saying the whole thing was a staged event, but if you were a stupid person trying to distract from all the problems Omar has found herself in recently, this would be near the top of the list for that.
The guy, after getting a little nod from the brother-loving Member of Congress, stood up and went to the right, not toward her. If he wanted to harm Ilhan Omar, he was directly in front of her with nothing between them but the podium and her security seemingly sleeping a good 15 feet off to the side.
