Boebert’s remarks came to light in a video on social media, and tensions increased after a phone call between Boebert and Omar last week.
Rep. Ilhan Omar said on Sunday she’s confident House Speaker Nancy Pelosi will take “decisive action” soon against Rep. Lauren Boebert after the Colorado Republican made anti-Muslim remarks about Omar. Boebert’s remarks came to light in a video on social media, and tensions increased after a phone call between Boebert and Omar last week. On CNN’s “State of the Union” on Sunday, the Minnesota Democrat called Boebert’s comments “dangerous” and blasted House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy for failing to condemn the Islamophobic remarks.
