Omar Defiant After Attack; Trump Policy Hurts US Child

US Congresswoman Ilhan Omar Attacked at Town Hall Event

Minneapolis, MN – U.S. Representative Ilhan Omar was attacked at a town hall event on Tuesday when an audience member sprayed a liquid at her using a syringe, according to Minneapolis police. Omar was unharmed and continued with the event.

Anthony James Kazmierczak, 55, has been charged with third-degree assault in connection with the incident. Authorities have not yet identified the substance, but a BBC journalist at the scene reported it had a sour smell similar to a chemical product.

"I'm ok. I'm a survivor so this small agitator isn't going to intimidate me from doing my work. I don't let bullies win," Omar wrote on X following the incident.

The investigation is ongoing.
