If you were aware that your coworker was...say...sharing secret company information with a competitor would you consider it to be too rude to mention in a committee hearing?

I mean, when are you supposed to bring something like that up? I think Boebert did nothing wrong. If Omar got upset, oh well. Boebert must have touched a nerve.

Which squad member said that conservatives should be sent to "reeducation camps"? Was that a polite thing to suggest?

She comes from a country that is in Anarchy, and a culture that promotes Female Genital mutilation. She offers this country nothing but hate. She should move back to Somalia, a country who shares her values.

I don't know Omar's life story but hasn't she been in the U.S. for a long time?

True...Boebert, the former single mother and high school dropout gets away with hateful speech.

Why bash Boebert who is a small business owner, wife and mother who was elected to represent her state in the U.S. House of Representatives?

I don't think her speech was hateful at all. I can see how it embarrassed some of the representatives, but I don't think it was hateful.

Instead of answering the issues that Boebert brought up, she is being personally attacked. Why are certain members of Congress being given a pass while others are being stripped of their committees?

And didn’t leech off society, got jobs, got her GED, owned a business, and now a US rep. What a great story.

Where is what she said considered hate speech?

Omar has been in the US a long time...has a Political Science/International studies degree from North Dakota State University unlike high school drop out Boebert. And yes, Omar was originally from Somalia...a country uneducated ignorant Boebert wouldn't be able to find on a world map...doubt she could even find Mississippi on a US map as well.
