‘आपने अमेरिकियों को मारा…’, स्टेट ऑफ द यूनियन में ट्रंप पर बरसीं इल्हान उमर – us Ilhan Omar Shouts Down Trump State Of Union Accusing immigration mdsb ntc
US President Donald Trump delivered the ‘State of the Union’ speech on Tuesday, in which he made sharp attacks on migrants. Democratic lawmakers present in the House had initially planned to remain silent for an hour, but their patience broke when Trump called Minnesota’s Somali community ‘pirates’.
Minnesota’s Somali-American lawmakers Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib interrupted Trump and attacked him sharply. Omar repeatedly shouted that Trump has killed Americans and he should be ashamed.
The protest was specifically in reference to the killings of two American citizens, Renee Good and Alex Pretty, by federal agents during an immigration crackdown in Minnesota. Trump hit back, calling the Democrats ‘crazy’ and accusing them of election fraud.
‘Peace’ plan failed in the House
At the beginning of the speech, the Democrats had decided to protest by sitting quietly. MP Al Green was thrown out of the chamber for protesting in the initial moments of the address. However, as soon as Trump said that the government’s duty is not to protect ‘illegal aliens’ but to protect American citizens and for this the Democrats should be ashamed, Ilhan Omar and other lawmakers broke their silence.
Trump described his policies as successful in sealing the southern border and deporting migrants. Citing the example of Minnesota, he accused the Somali community there of fraud. On this Ilhan Omar hit back at him. Trump made no mention of the shootings of protesters Renee Good and Alex Pretty by federal agents last month, which enraged Democrats.
sharp reaction from leaders
Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy called Omar and Tlaib’s interference “deeply disturbing” and said the president should be respected. Nancy Pelosi, on the other hand, downplayed the incident, saying it was ‘barely noticeable’ in the room. He said that MPs largely followed the guidance of the leadership. Let us tell you that this time dozens of Democrats had boycotted this address in view of last year’s protests.
