 U.S. Rep. Ilhan Omar is once again finding herself in hot water, this time over comments she made claiming America is being turned into “one of the worst countries.”

Her remarks came during a Friday interview with Democracy Now, where she criticized President Donald Trump’s military parade marking the U.S. Army’s 250th anniversary.

“I mean, I grew up in a dictatorship, and I don’t even remember ever witnessing anything like that, to have a democracy, a beacon of hope for the world, to now be turned into one of the—you know, one of the worst countries, where the military are in our streets, without any regard for people’s constitutional rights, while our president is spending millions of dollars prompting himself up like a failed dictator with a military parade,” she said, according to a transcript of the interview.

Omar, a naturalized citizen who came to the U.S. as a refugee from Somalia in the 1990s, was first elected to Congress in 2019. The remarks add to a litany of controversial comments she has made during her congressional tenure, including a 2019 description of 9/11 as “some people did something,” made during a speech to CAIR, a group whose national leader praised the Oct. 7 terrorist attack in Israel.

Fox News contributor Guy Benson called Omar’s latest comments “staggering ingratitude.”
