We live in this country. We are taxpayers in this country. This country is one where one of your daughters sits in Congress. While I am in Congress, no one will take Somalia’s sea. The United States will not back others to rob us.”


She wants it both ways.

We need to get rid of dual citizenship.

You can F right off with that. I have dual citizenship because I have one European-born parent. As does my husband. As do a lot of people I know. And don’t forget about all the dual citizenship Jewish Congress people.

Why do the Jewish Congress people want it?

It's probably the same reason

I would totally be fine if we got rid of dual citizenship for people who are in federal government jobs. That includes a hell of a lot of dual American/Israeli citizens.

Cuban expats have long had oversized influence in politics besides the Israel lobby, besides her district being 80% white. And they are far from the only expat or diaspora communities that pursue interests related to their countries of origin, including through politicians elected from among their own communities. And she is one Congresswoman in a House of 435.
This had to do with Somaliland giving Ethiopia access to the Somali Sea in 2024.

You really need to educate yourself. A lot of immigrants come from nationalistic cultures, and learn to love their country and people from a young age. They come here to better their country and their community, aka the American dream. Shes still loyal to the United States and sees herself as part of the wider community.

Getting rid of dual citizenships won’t change anything. Listen up, other countries aren’t like America, people are loyal to their ethnic group and race, okay. Don’t see it as a threat.

Why SHOULDN’T I want it? It’s permitted by US law. It’s preposterous to suggest that, in a country made up of immigrants, that people shouldn’t be allowed to have dual citizenship if the other country allows it.

Are you concerned about dual loyalties? Is that the problem?

Government official shouldn't have dual citizenship. The reasons are obvious.

What would happen if a naturalized American from Ethiopia would become a representative in Congress and support Ethiopia's interests in this dispute? Same for Taiwanese-born and Chinese-born representatives.

Not that members of Congress don't take sides, for a variety of reasons. But allegiance to a foreign community, and it's homeland, in the halls of Congress, is alarming.

I'm not a supporter - maybe lukewarm. But Omar as more integrity in her pinky than any AIPAC or politician sucking at the teet of Israel money.

So, less pro- Omar and more anti-Israel.

Yes. Why do you need more than one passport?
