Freshman Minnesota Democrat lawmaker Rep. Ilhan Omar continues adding to her long list of controversies by making a baseless allegation that the only reason why Republican Senator Lindsay Graham is supporting President Donald Trump is that he is “compromised” by some unknown group.
They got to him, he is compromised! https://t.co/m8sB3EmElg

Omar refused to back down from her assertions when asked by friendly hosts at CNN. She claims the evidence is “based on the way he is behaving”
Liberal conspiracy theorists have openly questioned and implied that the unmarried Senator Graham is a homosexual and the only reason he is a Republican is to hide that fact. Many took the baseless charge from Omar as innuendo to propagate that rumor.
Breathtaking bigotry, homophobia from a member of Congress. It’s not funny, and puzzling why Dems get away with outdated stereotypes and dumb conspiracy theories like this. https://t.co/5PePckchHG

Omar will serve on the powerful House Foreign Affairs Committee. Republicans point out that her strange behavior and her past anti semitism should be denounced by Democrats.
