Rep. Ilhan Omar Rep. Ilhan Omar was elected to represent an American district yet she acts more like Somalia’s unofficial ambassador in Congress. This clip shows her pattern clearly: gatekeeping access, sidelining Somaliland-Americans, and turning a U.S. congressional office into a personal diplomatic tool. And it doesn’t stop there. In the last Minneapolis mayor race, she even turned against longtime supporters within her own community just to advance her preferred candidate. When factional politics calls, she’ll throw anyone under the bus allies, organizers, whole communities. Loyalty only matters when it serves her agenda. That’s not Democratic leadership. That’s political self-preservation disguised as representation. At the end of the day, accountability comes through the democratic process. A congressional seat belongs to the public not to someone’s foreign political loyalties or personal power network.

I’m honestly shocked by President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud’s words. He claimed Somaliland wants recognition just because Britain once colonized it. That is false completely false. Mr. President, let me teach you something real. Somaliland’s demand for independence isn’t about colonial history, it’s about justice, democracy, and dignity. The so-called 1960 Act of Union between Somaliland and Somalia was never properly ratified. Its validity has always been questionable, and Somaliland has every right to reclaim what was freely given and freely can be taken back. For more than 30 years, Somaliland has built something Somalia still struggles to achieve: a stable, democratic, and peaceful nation. Somaliland held five presidential elections, local council elections, and a constitutional referendum. Somaliland people elect their leaders through the will of the people not through clan deals or chaos. Somaliland has defended its land from terrorists, protected its shores from pirates, and stood tall on its own two feet while the world looked away. Somaliland people just want to breathe the air of freedom they’ve already earned. So, Mr. President of Somalia, how dare you belittle that? Do you even understand what “union” means? Or do you think pretending to be a modern-day Abraham Lincoln will make the world believe your story? Tell us one thing you’ve done that has truly changed your people’s lives for the better. Just one. You can’t , because there isn’t one. That’s exactly why Somaliland and its people will never give up their rightful path to reclaim their independence.
