She is being paid by the U.S. government to represent her constituents, not Somalia. She should be deported.

Desantis calls for Ilhan Omar’s deportation after saying she is ‘Somali First’ in speech (msn.com)

Florida Governor, Ron DeSantis called for Minnesota Representative Ilhan Omar to be deported from the United States on Tuesday after footage showed Omar delivering a Somali-language speech to a gathering of community leaders at a Minneapolis hotel Saturday night where she called herself “Somali First” and vowed to protect Somalian interest as long as she is a member in the US Congress. (That's not her **** job! -Punch)
The footage shows Omar giving a speech in her native Somali where she rallied against plans by the Ethiopian government to enter a sea access deal with the Republic of Somaliland, a breakaway province of Somalia.  “The US is a country where one of your daughters is in Congress to represent your interest,” Omar declared in her speech. “For as long as I am in the US Congress, Somalia will never be in danger, its waters will not be stolen by Ethiopia or others … Sleep in comfort, knowing I am here to protect the interests of Somalia from inside the US system.”
"We, as Somalians, love each other... people who know they are Somalians first and Muslim second who protect one another and come to each other’s aid and to the aid of other Muslims too,” Omar said in her remarks.

Well THIS is hella embarrassing. I knew that DeSantis was a presidential candidate until recently and the governor of Florida since 2017, but I was completely unaware he had been appointed Minister of Emigration. 

I side with him on this issue though. American leaders should confine their energies to working for AMERICANS - not foreigners.
