ICE Finds Ilhan Omar's Son, Forgets to Find Epstein's Client List
Rep. Ilhan Omar stated her son was specifically targeted by ICE during a traffic stop, an alleged act described as part of a pattern of harassment against Somalis in Minnesota. The Hill reports this at face value, focusing on Omar's accusation that it's a deliberate act of intimidation against her family. One might wonder if this 'selective enforcement' by federal agencies mirrors the historical
pattern of surveillance and harassment of activists and prominent critics of U.S. foreign policy. While ICE is busy with traffic stops allegedly targeting specific lawmakers' families, the Biden administration continues to ignore calls for accountability on far more serious matters, from corporate malfeasance to unchecked lobbyist influence in Congress. This appears to be less about 'law and
order' and more about sending a clear message: critical voices, especially those that challenge the status quo on issues like Israeli policy, will face personal blowback. How convenient that federal resources always seem to materialize when a critic needs a 'reminder' of government power.
