Overview
- Mickelson wrote on X that Rep. Ilhan Omar "came here fraudulently" and should "hopefully be sent back to Somalia soon."
- His comments responded to a CNN interview where Omar called Charlie Kirk "Dr. Frankenstein" and said his legacy belongs in the "dustbin of history."
- Mickelson has repeatedly posted about Kirk since the Sept. 10 assassination at Utah Valley University, including sharing commentary he linked to Kirk’s message.
- He amplified Rep. Nancy Mace’s calls to punish Omar, reposting Mace’s censure push and a post saying, "We would love to see you deported back to Somalia next."
- Omar narrowly avoided a House censure effort last week that also sought to strip her committee assignments, as conservative criticism continued online.
