As a freshman congresswoman, Ilhan Omar burst on the national stage after she accused pro-Israel politicians in America of being bought off by the “benjamins, baby,” sparking bipartisan condemnation for remarks widely understood to be antisemitic.

But last week, a representative gave a speech to a Somali group in her first language, a video clip of which circulated over the weekend. A translation of the clip has Omar allegedly telling the audience to “sleep in comfort, knowing I am here to protect the interests of Somalia from inside the US system.”

Her supposed remarks have prompted predictable condemnation. Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene called her a “terrorist sympathizer.”

A senior House Republican told me that, “It is utterly reprehensible and a clear dereliction of duty when a member of the US Congress shows such overt allegiance to a foreign nation.” Omar’s colleague added that her recent speech is “a clear signal of a potential conflict of interest and a deeply troubling indication of misplaced loyalty.”

For her part, Omar said the clip of her remarks is “not only slanted but completely off, but I wouldn’t expect more from these propagandists.”

But, this is far from the first time Omar has found herself in hot water, and she can’t always rely on Nancy Pelosi coming to her aid by saying that “she has a different experience in the use of words, doesn’t understand that some of them are fraught with meaning.”

One GOP foreign policy staffer said to me that he’s “not sure if it’s stupidity or ignorance, but the end result is horrifying that this is coming from a member of Congress. Like Jewish space lasers-level concerning.”

Here, courtesy of Bonchie at RedState, is a transcript, and translation, of excerpts from Omar’s speech:

There are areas of friction that led us to kill each other, but in reality, we are an organized society, brothers and sisters, people of the same blood, people who know they are Somalians first, Muslims second, who protect one another, come to each other’s aid and to the aid of other Muslims too….

Omar speaks of being Somali first and Muslim second. But she says nothing at all about being an American, though it is the United States that gave her refuge, provided her with the ability to work as a woman that would never have been possible in Somali, and is currently a member of Congress. Apparently she does not identify with, nor is grateful to, the United States.

The U.S. would not dare support anyone against Somalia stealing our land or oceans. Sleep in comfort, knowing I am here to protect the interests of Somalia from inside the U.S. system. The woman you sent to Congress is working day and night to protect your interests. She knows your plight and that of Somalia. I am as concerned about Somalia as you guys are. Together, we will protect the interests of Somalia.

Omar is presenting herself as an agent of Somalia “inside the U.S. system,” who will ensure that Washington supports that country in its disputes with neighboring countries, such as Somaliland and Ethiopia. She is working “night and day to protect your [Somali] interests.” Not American interests. Not the interests of Minnesotans, who sent her to Congress. She is “as concerned about Somalia as you guys are.” She will make sure that the American government will always take Somalia’s side — “the U.S. [because of my being such a force in Congress] would not dare support anyone against Somalia.” American soldiers will fight and die, if necessary, to ensure that Somalia’s claims on both land and water are upheld. She is Somalia’s foremost advocate in the corridors of power in Washington.

Somalia is for Somalis only, as over 45 percent of Somalia’s population are not even ethnic Somalis. Somalia is one nation. We are all brothers and sisters. Our land cannot be divided. Ethiopia and Kenya have stolen and continue to occupy the Somali regional state, which belongs to Somalia. We will liberate the occupied territories stolen from Somalia…

At no point does Ilhan Omar express her relief and gratitude at having her family taken in by the United States. She never mentions the inferior status that would have awaited her as a woman in Somalia. She says nothing at all about non-Somali Americans; apparently only Somalis and Somali-Americans matter in her worldview. She is Somalia’s self-appointed agent in Washington. She will no doubt try to inveigle the American government into helping Somalia take back land that, she claims, has been stolen by Ethiopia and Kenya. Or better still, perhaps she thinks Americans can be persuaded to take on the whole task themselves.

No Congressman in history has so unapologetically declared sole loyalty to a foreign country as Ilhan Omar. She can count on the Somali-American vote in the Fifth District, which is heavily Somali, but if she attempts a run for the Senate, as has been rumored, can she possibly win all those many non-Somalists across Minnesota who will be offended by her Somalia First, Last, and Only policy? And given her declaration of sole loyalty to a foreign power, should she be allowed to continue to serve on the Foreign Relations Committee? On that committee, she is privy to secret information about our policy in East Africa, and may be able to mold that policy to reflect her support of Somalia, a country which is far less friendly to the U.S. than are its chief enemies, Ethiopia and Kenya.

Who from this nettle, danger, will pluck this flower, safety?
