Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) was on the House Committee hearing with Trump’s bananas choice for U.S. Special Envoy to Venezuela, convicted war criminal Elliott Abrams. She prefaced her remarks by pointing out that Abrams is a convicted liar. A really big one at that.

Rep. Omar: In 1991 you pleaded guilty to two counts of withholding information from congress regarding your involvement in the Iran-Contra affair for which you were later pardoned by president George H.W. Bush. I fail to understand why members of this committee or the American people should find any testimony that you give today to be truthful.
Abrams didn’t like how that tasted and thought he could get a few words in edgewise.
Abrams: If I can respond to that.
Rep. Omar: It wasn't a question.
Hehe. Fuck you war criminal. The point that Rep. Omar was making is that Elliott Abrams is legit guilty of lying to Congress in order to cover up a massacre of over 1,000 men, women and children. He is a convicted war criminal.
Enjoy.
