"I have experienced an increase in direct threats on my life—many directly referencing or replying to the President's video," Omar tweeted in a statement. "I thank the Capitol Police, the FBI, the House Sergeant at Arms, and the Speaker of the House for their attention to these threats."
In her statement, Omar continued: "Violent crimes and other acts of hate by right-wing extremists and white nationalists are on the ride in this country and around the world. We can no longer ignore that they are being encouraged by the occupant of the highest office in the land."

Look, I don't advocate making death threats. But until Omar issues a "full-throated" denunciation of the 9/11 attackers she can feel as uncomfortable as a tick in a jar of Vaseline. Offended? It's no different than the sentiment you Lefties express towards Trump re: Charlottesville. Quid pro quo. I suggest you get used to the pushback. No more rolling-over-and-taking-the-abuse of the Obama era.
