Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) issued a statement Sunday calling on President Donald Trump to take down a video contrasting footage of September 11, 2001, Islamist terror attacks on the United States with a comment by Rep.
Ilhan Omar made last month before a Muslim audience in which she dismissed the attack as “Some people did something.” Pelosi called Trump’s video “disrespectful and dangerous” and said she had directed the Sergeant-at-Arms to conduct a security assessment for Omar, her staff and family.
“.@realDonaldTrump’s dangerous video must be taken down. I have spoken with the Sergeant-at-Arms to ensure that Capitol Police are conducting a security assessment to safeguard Rep. @Ilhan Omar, her family & her staff. They will continue to monitor & address the threats she faces,” Pelosi tweeted.

A couple of days ago, President Trump tweeted a video of Omar describing 9/11 as “some people did something.”

Ilhan Omar refused to call 9/11 a terrorist attack and the people that did it, terrorists’.
Omar spoke at a Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) fundraiser last month, where she called upon other Muslim Americans to “make people uncomfortable” with their activism and presence in the society and criticized the Jewish state.
She said:
“…some people did something, and that all of us were starting to lose access to our civil liberties.”
A huge backlash followed and even liberal reporter went after her!
It seems that only Nancy wants to defend her at the moment!
