Rep. Nancy Mace: Democrats And 4 Republicans Protect Ilhan Omar After She Mocked Charlie Kirk’s Assassination

(Washington, D.C., September 17, 2025) – Tonight, the U.S. House of Representatives voted 214–213 to table Congresswoman Nancy Mace’s resolution to censure Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) and strip her of all committee assignments following her indefensible comments mocking the cold-blooded assassination of Charlie Kirk.

210 Democrats and 4 Republicans (Mike Flood, Jeff Hurd, Tom McClintock, and Cory Mills) rushed to shield Omar from justice following her own actions.

“Tonight, 210 Democrats and 4 Republicans sold out and chose to protect Ilhan Omar, a woman who mocked the cold-blooded assassination of an innocent American husband and father, who has openly supported ISIS and the Muslim Brotherhood, and who has repeatedly incited political violence,” said Congresswoman Nancy Mace. “They didn’t stand with Charlie Kirk. They didn’t stand with the millions of Americans mourning his death. They stood with the one who mocked his legacy. They showed us exactly who they are, and we won’t forget.”

Just days after Kirk’s murder, Omar appeared on the Breaking Points podcast where she:

• Claimed those saying “Charlie Kirk just wanted to have a civil debate” are “full of s—”.
• Said there is “nothing more f—ed up than to pretend his words and actions have not been recorded” over the past decade.
• Dismissed the grief of millions as “complete rewriting of history”.

Omar also reposted a video calling Charlie Kirk a “stochastic terrorist” and a “reprehensible human being,” doubling down on her attacks while his family was still planning his memorial.

Rep. Mace’s resolution would have:

• Formally censured Rep. Ilhan Omar before the full House of Representatives.
• Required her to stand in the well of the House chamber as the censure is read aloud.
• Stripped her of committee assignments on the House Education and Workforce Committee and the House Budget Committee.
