Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar is refusing to condemn one of the most vicious punishments in Sharia Law, the stoning of gay people.
Omar got on Twitter this week to preach from her soapbox about the “inhumane” conditions that illegal immigrants are in at the Southern Border.
“This is abhorrent and inhumane,” she said, not noting that no one had invited these illegal immigrants to come to the border.

“It’s without a doubt a reflection of what white nationalism is doing to our country,” the anti-Semitic representative said.
“As a country, we have to acknowledge that this is how people are being treated here and decide that we are better and we must do better,” she said.

She then went on to preach about the horrors of conversion therapy which, she said, could lead to “Depression, Self-hatred, Substance abuse, Homelessness, Suicidal behavior.”

“Survivors have likened it to torture. It’s time to #DefundConversionTherapy,” she said, although no one is certain who is funding it.

But in between those two tweets journalist Ryan Savvedra of The Daily Wire contacted her office two times to get her comments on two news stories.
Following Omar’s remarks, The Daily Wire reached out to her office via phone and email to get her thoughts on two recent news items.
The nation is going to introduce death by stoning as a punishment for gay sex and “amputation for those guilty of theft under sharia law, with both penalties to also apply to children once implemented.”

The second story comes out of the Middle East, where the Palestinian terrorist group Hamas recently fired 20 rockets into Israel and destroyed the homes of innocent civilians.
The Daily Wire asked Omar if she could provide comment on either story and if she found either of these acts to be “abhorrent and inhumane.”
The Daily Wire also asked Omar if she would say that these acts are due to radical Islam.
Omar and her office refused to respond to multiple requests for comment.

The Daily Wire again contacted Omar’s office on Friday via phone and email to give them another chance to respond and notified them that a non-response would be considered a “refusal to condemn” these acts. Omar’s office again did not respond to the inquiries.
