I am disgusted and outraged by the attack on Rep. Omar tonight while she was doing her job & meeting with constituents.
Let’s be clear: nonstop hate and dangerous rhetoric from Trump & his allies has fueled this type of violence.
I stand with Rep. Omar. I stand with Minnesota. This must stop.

I repeat, absolutely an amateur hour situation. Just wildly dumb stuff going on here.
In videos posted on social media, one employee can be heard saying: “This is the Ecuadorian consulate. You’re not allowed to enter.” The agent responds, “If you touch me, I’ll grab you.”
