Rep. Ilhan Omar Wants to Replace 1798 Alien Enemies Act With ‘Neighbors Not Enemies Act’

It funny to hear Rep. Ilhan Omar step up to a microphone and start lecturing on what's un-American. She's teamed up with one of the dumbest senators, Sen. Mazie Hirono, to reintroduce the "Neighbors Not Enemies Act." Note that nowhere in this clip does she distinguish illegal immigrants from legal immigrants — they never do, and they do it on purpose.

 President Trump, during his inaugural address, said he was considering Mexican cartels terrorists and invoked the Alien Enemies Act of 1798, which lets the president detain or deport the citizens of an enemy nation. "By invoking the Alien Enemies Act of 1798, I will direct our government to use the full and immense power of federal and state law enforcement to eliminate the presence of all foreign gangs and criminal networks bringing devastating crime to U.S. soil, including our cities and inner cities,” Trump said.

Omar wants to replace the Alien Enemies Act with the Neighbors Not Enemies Act. What is the Neighbors Not Enemies Act? It's a one-page bill that revokes the Alien Enemies Act. That's it.

Why do they all think Trump is invoking the Alien Enemies Act as his means of rounding up and deporting legal immigrants? We're trying to deport the illegal immigrants, starting with the worst first. What's un-American is not recognizing our border and defending it.
