You have to have a certain skin tone for conservatives to consider you American now.

Anyone who immigrates to America from another country proudly boasting their allegiance to their former country is not as American as me, or even this guy.

In America, if you don’t swear undying loyalty to the country, you loose citizenship

You’re*, she’s a representative of this country. You’re allowed to be proud of your heritage, that’s what makes America great, which is its strength through unity and diversity. Get a grip

She literally said “My number one priority in congress is to further the interest of Somalia” So, she’s saying she’s using her power as an elected official to do anything other than advance the interests of her citizens. I ask again, would you immigrate to Japan, win office, say that (but for the USA), and then expect the Japanese to call you a “fellow countryman”?

Here’s a solution to that problem: Impeachment. Instead of LARPing as a “patriot”, use the democratic systems in place to ensure the system remains functional

It’s more like “In America, if you win political power you can pledge allegiance to another nation and actively subvert the will of the citizens using illegal immigration and a lack of election security to make hundreds of millions of dollars in less than a thousand days” US code for treason does exist. Alas, nothing ever happens.

Unsurprisingly, that was a mistranslation republicans spread everywhere. The actual translated quote is My answer was the US government will do what we tell the US government to do. We as Somalis should have that confidence in ourselves. We live in this country. We pay taxes in this country. It’s a country where one of your own sits in Congress … The woman you sent to Congress is aware of you and has the same interest as you”
