Ilhan Omar endorses campaign to target Fox News advertisers after scathing criticism from Tucker Carlson
Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) endorsed a campaign to pressure advertisers to drop Fox News after a scathing criticism from Tucker Carlson that she called racist
"Fox News is now giving a nightly platform to white supremacist rhetoric. It's dangerous," Omar tweeted.
"Advertisers should not be underwriting hate speech," she concluded.
She reposted a video of the commentary from Carlson, and a tweet that called it a "racist attack," while calling on advertisers to drop the cable news network and asking Twitter users to pressure them.
"Omar isn't disappointed in America, she's enraged by it," said Carlson in his commentary from his show.
"Virtually every public statement she makes accuses Americans of bigotry and racism. This is an immoral country she says, she has undisguised contempt for the United States and for its people," he adds.
"That should worry you and not just because Omar is a sitting member of Congress.
"Ilhan Omar is living proof that the way we practice immigration has become dangerous to this country. A system designed to strengthen America is instead undermining it. Some of the people we try hardest to help have come to hate us passionately.
"Maybe that's our fault for asking too little of our immigrants, we aren't self confident enough to make them assimilate so they never feel fully American," he continued. "Or maybe the problem is deeper than that, maybe we're importing people from places whose values are antithetical to ours."
In another tweet, Omar responded by calling Carlson a "racist fool" and laughing about the commentary.
"Not gonna lie, it's kinda fun watching a racist fool like this weeping about my presence in Congress," she tweeted with laughing emojis.

Subject: We stand with Tucker Carlson
Here we go again. The left is attacking Tucker Carlson anew. As a viewer, I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your continued support of Carlson and for continuing to air his show. It is frustrating that someone (Media Matters) had to make the effort to dig up “dirt” on Carlson from years past. What is even more frustrating is that “dirt” was exposed for Virginia Governor, Northam and Virginia Lieutenant Governor, Fairfax, and because the progressive, blatant double standard, both are still in their positions of power. This action reeks of a massive double standard.
Carlson Tucker is very outspoken and erudite. He researches his topics and challenges voices that do not always agree with him. As a result, his program often has a provocative message which challenges viewers to think for themselves, which probably upsets the progressives. It is a great display of the first amendment in action.
Thank you for keeping him on air. Supporting Fox and supporting his sponsors for keeping him on air is what I will do. I speak with my wallet and my money is on Tucker Carlson.
Yours truly,

Body:
Media Matters' leftist mob out to defund Fox News, the only major conservative cable news, is now targeting Tucker Carlson. On March 10, 2019, Media Matters posted a compilation of audio from Carlson’s appearances on the “Bubba the Love Sponge Show” between 2006 2011. As usual leftists dug up old information in an attempt to force the firing of Tucker Carlson and weaken Fox News.
Pharmaceutical company, AstraZeneca, is the first company to publicly acknowledge it will not advertise on Tucker Carlson. “AstraZeneca confirms we no longer advertise on the Tucker Carlson show and we will not be advertising on this program in the future,” the company tweeted on March 11, 2019. No other advertisers have announced plans to part with Carlson.
Tucker Carlson has brought bold, fact based news perspectives to millions of Americans that no other cable news host has produced. Tucker has relentlessly supported border protection, exposed big tech censorship, called out the uncivil, violent behavior of leftists and defended the lives of the unborn while exposing the death culture. Tucker Carlson has stood strong on many conservative causes.
Conservative superstar Rush Limbaugh has commented that he likes to watch Tucker Carlson. Tucker continues to enjoy massive ratings, much higher than other cable news talk hosts, despite Media Matters' mob attack.
Tucker Carlson speaks for the conservative values of tens of millions of Americans. He takes a strong stand for us. We need to take a stand for him.
