The latest example: Omar retweeted a vile comment from washed-up anti-Trump ‘comedian’ Tom Arnold justifying a recent attack on Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) that left him partially debilitated for weeks and nearly proved fatal.
As noted by The Gateway Pundit, Arnold tweeted, “Imagine being Rand Paul’s next door neighbor and having to deal with Rand Paul lying cowardly circular whiney bullcrap about lawn clippings. No wonder he ripped his toupee off.”
Omar thought that was something a sitting congresswoman should retweet about a sitting Republican U.S. senator.
As a reminder, NBC News reported in January 2018:
Rene Boucher, 58, was charged on Friday with assaulting a member of Congress, a felony, months after his sneak attack on Sen. Rand Paul in November, according to officials.
Federal prosecutors said Boucher "had enough" after he witnessed Paul stack brush into a pile on his own lawn, but near Boucher's property. Boucher then ran onto Paul's property and tackled him.
Got that? Paul stacked brush on his own lawn but this goofball ‘had enough’ so he attacked him.
The assault left Paul, a physician, with five cracked ribs; later he would develop pneumonia. Boucher would get 30 days in jail — not enough for this felony.
Why? “Earlier accounts of the incident suggested bad blood between the neighbors, who have known each other for roughly 17 years, including a dispute over a property line and possible distaste for Paul's politics, as well as those of his father, former Texas Rep. Ron Paul,” NBC News reported.
Because he didn’t like Paul’s politics, he attacked. And Omar has no problem with that, apparently.
“It was nice of her to provide even more evidence that she is a person with vile, anti-American beliefs and values, who apparently also supports violence for political disagreements, said Sen. Paul’s chief strategist, Doug Stafford, in a statement to The Gateway Pundit.

Omar’s retweet comes after Paul announced he would pitch in to help purchase a plane ticket for her back to her native land of Somalia, which has been embroiled in civil war for decades, since she was obviously so unhappy with being in America.
“I’m willing to contribute to buy her a ticket to go visit Somalia. I think she can look and maybe learn a little bit about the disaster that is Somalia,” Paul noted in an interview with Breitbart News.
The retweet also comes on the heels of a report by Information Liberation and Summit News that Omar told Arab media outlet Al Jazeera last year that “our country should be more fearful of white men” because “they are actually causing most of the deaths within this country.”
Her comment was made in the context of whether Americans should continue to be fearful of Islamic terrorism — and we know that Omar loves her Somali-born terrorists. (Related: FBI: Anti-Semitic Rep. Ilhan Omar’s district TOPS in terrorist recruitment in the U.S.)
Summit News notes:
Omar was asked if she thought conservatives were right to have a legitimate fear of Islam given the spate of Islamic terror attacks in America, including the 2017 truck attack in New York.
“I would say our country should be more fearful of white men across our country because they are actually causing most of the deaths within this country, and so if fear was the driving force of policies to keep America safe, Americans safe inside of this country, we should be profiling, monitoring, and creating policies to fight the radicalization of white men,” she said.
That’s, of course, false. According to FBI stats, blacks are far more likely to commit murder than Hispanics or whites (whites are the lowest demographic).
But hey, what are facts when you're peddling America-hate?
