"I’m only seeing people being fired for sharing Kirk’s words, His wife ‘sat by him’ as he said bad things"
BREITBART -- On Friday’s broadcast of CNN’s “The Source,” Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) said that people are getting fired for sharing Charlie Kirk’s words and she hasn’t seen anyone celebrating his assassination, she’s “just seen people sharing his words.”
Host Kaitlan Collins asked, “[T]he way former President Obama put it, he also said he thought that Charlie Kirk’s ideas and views were wrong, but he said, and I’m quoting Obama now, we have to extend grace to people during their period of mourning and shock. Does he have a point?”
Omar responded, “Yeah. I extend grace to his wife and kids. I cannot imagine what they are going through, but the reality is that his wife sat by him as he said those things and did not tell him that these are human beings who you are calling garbage, who you are saying they don’t have the brain power because they were born in a different skin color.
