America was not built by a herd of sheep who stood idly by while the “powers that be” oppressed the noble cause of liberty. The founding fathers of America were not cowards: they did not fear political change.
Today, there are still some who take the torch of liberty and hold it high. US Representative Ilhan Omar is one woman who had the courage to speak out against the injustices committed by the United States on the people of Venezuela.
“A lot of the policies that we have put in place has kind of helped lead the devastation in Venezuela and we have sort of set the stage for where we are arriving today.”
“This particular bullying and the use of sanctions to eventually intervene and make regime change really does not help the people of countries like Venezuela and it certainly does not help and is not in the interest of the United States.”

United States’ Secretary of State, Mike Pompeo responded by saying:
“For a member of Congress who, frankly, one who sits on an important national committee, making a statement blaming America first in this way, it’s not only ignorant, it’s disgusting.”
So if Mike Pompeo calls Ilhan Omar’s Statement “disgusting,” I wonder what he would say about this Washington based report that says the same thing.
