Is this the man to replace Omar??
Since certain individuals got the thread locked, I'd like to seriously continue the conversation...

It would seem Omar has some competition for her seat. I give you, through Breitbart, the Conservative that will beat her...Lacy Johnson.

Fellow American,

Ilhan Omar’s time in the US Congress has been marked by scandal, corruption, and flat out embarrassment.

Omar’s far-left policies have failed our nation's biggest cities and our citizens for far too long… but it doesn’t have to continue.

My name is Lacy Johnson, and I am the only candidate that can make Ilhan Omar’s first term in Congress, her last term.
[snip]

I rarely, if ever, give to out of state candidates, but I might just be coerced to contribute to Mr. Johnson's campaign. Can any of our Minnesota brothers/sisters shed some light on him? Does he have a snowball's chance in hell?? Are there any Demotards competing for POS Omar's seat?

Your link shows up for me as a boatload of Breitbart headlines and none seem to link to Omar?

OK, I already like the guy and I haven't heard of him other than the four paragraphs in the article. America First and Conservative always seem to catch my eye.

Nice thought but that district is not going to vote for a “strong pro-Trump, pro-Israel Conservative who supports the America First agenda

Is there a way to ANONYMOUSLY contribute money to campaigns?? I just don't feel like getting 14,529 e-mails over the next 13 months asking for support or more money once I make a contribution.

According to Lacy Johnson’s campaign web site, this is his contact address:

PO Box 580976
Minneapolis, MN 55458

There is this thing called “mail” (no “e” prefix) that can be used to send physical pieces of paper called “checks” or “money orders” to someone for a half a buck or so, plus the cost of an envelope. There should be something called a “post office” relatively near where you live and where you can get further information and explanation of the mailing process. Post offices also sell money orders for cash if one doesn’t have any checks.

The checks or money orders don’t have to include one’s email address or even phone number. In fact, they don’t even have to show one’s address. I believe that’s about as anonymous as it’s possible to get.

(Please forgive me; I can resist anything except temptation. Wink )

That district she’s from is referred to as Little Mogadishu and is populated almost entirely by Somali Muslims. Many are radicalized and they vote. Lacy doesn’t stand a chance if you gave him a billion $$. Give your money to Judicial Watch you’ll get more on your return.

This is what immigration without assimilation gets you. The Squad may one day become a majority if this is allowed to continue.

I was going to go here. If the district elected Omar, they sure as hell AREN'T going to elect anyone even vaguely resembling a conservative.

Politicians resemble their constituents. If they elected Omar, what do you think their politics are?

I don't think a guy who isn't a Somali/Muslim or a white liberal on a guilt trip has much of a chance in this district.

Yes, it is. I can aver that I do know other ways exist, having heard many examples over my 81 years on Earth, but I don't use crude expletives and never have. Ergo, I won't be taking any lessons from you. Smile

That particular example was taken from Heinlein's book "Double Star", where the youthful hero frequently uses the expletive "Shucks!". A Venerian "dragon" hears this and queries "Husks of plants?".

Frankly maybe we keep her in congress, to remind people what can happen with unbridled immigration of people that won't assimilate into the culture of the country.

She's a reminder of what we can become, best advertising for conservative politicians out there..

Its only one vote and she gets tons of attention because she's controversial, same for AOC,
