The Georgia Republican posted an Islamophobic tweet, claiming the Muslim congresswoman and fellow progressives are 'terrorist sympathizers.'
Greene's post retweeted Arthur Schwartz, who argued that"Boebert was wrong" and claimed that Omar"just wants to use your money to pay" terrorists.
Boebert apologized to the Muslim community on Friday after a video of her speaking at an event drew substantial backlash. In the clip, Boebert shares a story about getting into an elevator with Omar. She says:"I look to my left, and there she is: Ilhan Omar. And I said, 'Well, she doesn't have a backpack. We should be fine.'"
Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene posted an Islamophobic tweet attack on Representative Ilhan Omar Saturday. In this photo, Greene answers questions in front of the House steps while House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy holds a press conference November 17 in Washington, D.C."Fact, this buffoon looks down when she sees me at the Capitol, this whole story is made up. Sad she thinks bigotry gets her clout," the Minnesota Democrat tweeted.
