Overview
- President Trump wrote "She should go back!" on Truth Social, sharing an older video of Rep. Ilhan Omar speaking at an event.
- The video shows Omar saying "Somalia is our home" and referring to Somalia’s leader as "our President," according to the translation circulated online.
- The clip was first posted last year by the End Wokeness account on X, which outlets have reported has shared misleading or mistranslated material about Omar.
- Omar is a naturalized U.S. citizen who was born in Somalia, and there has been no indication of any formal move to remove her from the country.
- The post continues Trump’s long-running attacks on Omar, including a September remark urging Somalia’s leader to "take back" her and echoes the 2019 rally chants of "send her back."
