Rep. Ilhan Omar of Minnesota lashed back at Fox News’ Tucker Carlson today, calling out the host as a “racist fool” and suggesting advertisers “should not be underwriting hate speech.”
What set Carlson off was a Washington Post profile that characterized Omar’s view of America . The Post wrote that Omar’s version of the American story “wasn’t a meritocracy that helped her attend college or vaulted her into Congress. Instead, it was the country that had failed to live up to its founding ideals, a place that had disappointed her and so many immigrants, refugees and minorities like her.
Carlson went on: “Maybe that’s our fault for asking too little of our immigrants. We aren’t self-confident enough to make them assimilate so they never feel fully American. Or maybe the problem is deeper than that. Maybe we’re importing people from places whose values are simply antithetical to ours. Who knows what the problem is, but there is a problem and whatever the cause, this cannot continue. It’s not sustainable.
