It’s time to ban foreign-born lawmakers — Ilhan Omar and Shri Thanedar prove why

BlazeTV host Sara Gonzales believes it’s high time that we stop allowing foreign-born people to serve in Congress — because historically, their allegiance doesn’t seem to be with America.“The most obvious example is, of course, Ilhan Omar, who helped all these Somalians pull off all this fraud in Minnesota allegedly,” Gonzales says on “Sara Gonzales Unfiltered.” “The restaurants that are using your taxpayer money to go funnel to terror groups, she’s, like, hosting parties at,” she continues.Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) has also been quite open about where her allegiance lies, which is reflected in a clip Gonzales has on hand of Omar speaking to her fellow Somalis in Somali.“Sleep in comfort, knowing I am here to protect the interests of Somalia from inside the U.S. system,” Omar said, adding, “I am as concerned about Somalia as you guys are.”“Now this is why I just can’t stop talking about this, because this goes against the oath that everyone has to take when they become naturalized. It literally says on the form, ‘I hereby declare on oath that I absolutely and entirely renounce and abjure all allegiance and fidelity to any foreign prince, potentate, state, or sovereignty, of whom or which I have heretofore been a subject or citizen,’” Gonzales comments.And Omar is hardly the only foreigner in the United States government raising a red flag. There's also Michigan Rep. Shri Thanedar (D) — who made the trip from India to the United States in 1979.“So he had lived his entire life, growing into adulthood, in India, like tried and true Indian at the point that he came here,” Gonzales comments, before showing a video of Thanedar speaking about the articles of impeachment he introduced against Secretary of War Pete Hegseth.“Today I introduced articles to impeach Secretary Pete Hegseth for murder and conspiracy to murder since day one. Secretary Hegseth has disgraced that once-proud office that he holds, from issuing orders to kill everybody on board a small boat,” Thanedar said in a thick Indian accent.“He was struggling for some of those words,” Gonzales comments.“He’s been here this long, he still hasn’t bothered to brush up on his English. And on top of that, he seems to not be clear on like, ‘Hey, we’re America. When terrorists try to kill Americans, we kill them.’ That’s a thing. You don’t negotiate with terrorists,” she continues.“If you don’t like it, go home,” she adds.Want more from Sara Gonzales?To enjoy more of Sara's no-holds-barred takes on news and culture, subscribe to BlazeTV — the largest multi-platform network of voices who love America, defend the Constitution, and live the American dream.

Christian NFL star apologizes after reference to kids' game that likely left LGBTQ crowd seething

An NFL star running back who has been outspoken about his Christian faith is facing criticism for uttering what some call a gay slur while live on television. Bijan Robinson of the Atlanta Falcons was celebrating the team's upset victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers Thursday when he joked about playing "smear the queer," a common kids' game. 'It was not reflective of my beliefs and I am so sorry to those I offended seriously!'Robinson was talking about a play during the game that appeared to be from backyard football and added, "Smear the queer, that’s what this is, smear the queer!”Someone on the set quickly tried to correct him by saying, "Kill the carrier," a more politically correct name for the game. On Friday, Robinson posted an apology on social media. "Hey everyone I want to apologize for the insensitive comment I made in the broadcast, it was a football game we used to play as a kid but that’s not an excuse," he wrote. "I recognize the mistake and make sure to do better in the future," he added. "It was not reflective of my beliefs and I am so sorry to those I offended seriously!" Video of his comments were posted to social media, where it garnered millions of views. Robinson has often talked about his Christian faith and established a foundation to give back to society in four areas: "Faith, Homelessness, Youth, and Literacy," according to his website.

Even after games, in postgame interviews, I never go without saying ‘God’ first," he said after getting drafted for the NFL. "I play for Him. I play for God," he added. "I do everything in my life for God, so He’ll only continue to keep blessing you. My faith is my biggest thing.”Like Blaze News?

'Send in the next guy': Nicki Minaj savages Newsom over his desire to 'see trans kids'

California Gov. Gavin Newsom, who polling indicates is the 2028 Democratic front-runner for presidential nomination, emphasized his support for gender ideology in a recent interview with the New York Times' Ezra Klein.Newsom's radical remarks caught the attention not only of Republicans but of Trinidadian rapper Nicki Minaj, who suggested the governor's views would alienate even mentally ill "trans" adults.'The Vance > The Gav Nots.'In the interview published on Wednesday, Newsom told Klein that while he — like the supermajority of Americans — does not support male transvestites in women's sports, he nevertheless wants "to see trans kids.""I have a trans godson," Newsom said. "There's no governor that's signed more pro-trans legislation than I have, and no one has been a stronger advocate for the LGBTQ community."The "godson" whom the Democratic governor referenced in this and other defenses of his trans alliance is billionaire oil heir Natalia Williams, the 33-year-old great-granddaughter of oil tycoon J. Paul Getty who had her breasts removed and now calls herself Nats Getty.Newsom's goddaughter is "married" to male transvestite Giselle Getty, formerly Gregory Lazzarato.An X account managed by the Republican National Committee said in a response to the governor's comments subsequently shared by the GOP, "Gavin Newsom gushes about how he wants to see the gender mutilation of children."RELATED: 'Not medicine — it's malpractice': Trump HHS buries child sex-change regime with damning report Photo by Bob Riha Jr./Getty Images Minaj was evidently among the multitude of people sickened by Newsom's statement, writing, "Imagine being the guy running on wanting to see trans kids. Haha. Not even a trans ADULT would run on that. Normal adults wake up & think they want to see HEALTHY, SAFE, HAPPY kids.""GavOUT," Minaj continued. "Send in the next guy, I'm bored."Minaj followed up her tweet with a message suggesting that Newsom thinks he's Tom Cruise, but the difference is that "his next mission IS impossible."Normalcy advocate Robby Starbuck noted that if Minaj is going to troll Newsom "from now until 2028 then he has a big problem because Gavin's counting on the black vote and Nicki has a big enough megaphone to let them know how evil Gavin's policies are. Dude lets 13 yr old girls get their breasts cut off in his state."Newsom has ratified numerous bills pushing the radical trans agenda in his state, including:SB-107, making California a so-called sanctuary for child sex-rejecting mutilations;AB-1084, making it easier for transvestites to obtain inaccurate identification documents;AB-223, requiring any petition for a change of sex identifier by a minor to be kept confidential by the court; andAB-1955, banning school districts from requiring school officials to inform parents if a child begins to identify as "transgender."A Pew Research Center survey revealed earlier this year that 56% of Americans support a ban on sex-rejecting medical procedures for minors.Whereas Minaj is highly critical of Newsom, she's clearly sweet on the 2028 Republican front-runner, Vice President JD Vance."Vance is an assassin," she wrote. "Don't debate him. On anything. Quick as a computer. Maybe quicker. He's the best blend I've ever seen of us&them."In a separate message, Minaj noted, "The Vance > The Gav Nots."Like Blaze News?

Democratic congressman is getting scorched over 'disgusting' description of attack on National Guard members

A Democratic congressman is facing scathing criticism for his description of the horrific attack on two National Guard members that left one dead.Rep. Bennie Thompson (D) of Mississippi was trying to interrogate Department of Homeland Security Sec. Kristi Noem when he appeared to severely minimize the terrible attack. Thompson is the ranking member of the House Homeland Security Committee.'Bennie Thompson should apologize and retract this disgusting remark.'"Madame Secretary, you and the gentleman from [National Counterterrorism Center] reference the unfortunate accident that occurred with the National Guardsmen being killed," said Thompson. "You think that was an unfortunate accident? That was a terrorist attack!" interjected Noem."I mean, look, I'll get it straight," he replied in an annoyed tone."He shot our National Guardsmen in the head!" she added.Thompson appealed to the committee chair to censure Noem for interrupting his questioning."It was an unfortunate situation, but you blamed it solely on Joe Biden. I want you to know who approved the asylum application for this same person?" he continued.Noem responded that the suspect in the shooting had been allowed into the country during the evacuation of Afghanistan during the Biden administration, but Thompson continued to harangue her about the approval of his asylum under the Trump administration.Video of the exchange was widely circulated on social media, and the bizarre comments led to furious condemnation."Note to Democrats: The killing of National Guardsman Sarah Beckstrom was not an 'unfortunate accident.' It was a premeditated terrorist attack," replied Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) on social media. "Bennie Thompson should apologize and retract this disgusting remark. Well done, @Sec_Noem for refusing to let Democrats downplay terrorism."National Intelligence Director Tulsi Gabbard excoriated Thompson on Fox News and said the moment exemplified a common problem among political leaders.RELATED: National Guard shooting suspect is Afghan national who entered US under Biden program "It is absolutely infuriating," said Gabbard. "This is someone who is a very, very senior leader in Congress, who for a long time has led the Homeland Security Committee in Congress. The fact that he cannot and refuses to directly identify this attack for what it was, a terrorist attack on our own soil against our National Guard.""This exchange really points to the egregious and longstanding problem that we've seen," she added, "which is leaders, some on both sides of the aisle, who refused to identify this Islamist terrorist threat for exactly what it is, which is one of the reasons why we find ourselves in the position that we are in today."Thompson later said that he had misspoken when confronted by a CNN anchor about the comments.Like Blaze News?

'Blind allegiance': Thune lays into blue states passing up Trump tax relief

With major tax breaks just around the corner, Senate Majority Leader John Thune reveals the real reason Democrats are skipping out on major tax breaks. Several blue states across the country are opting out of the major tax breaks promised in President Donald Trump's One Big Beautiful Bill Act, including provisions like deductions for seniors and no tax on tips. These tax breaks are set to go into effect on January 1, 2026. 'They are doing it because of Trump derangement syndrome or a blind allegiance to high-tax policies.'These policies are popular across the political spectrum, yet Democrats are depriving their constituents of the opportunity to reap the benefits. Some of these states include Colorado, Illinois, New York, and Maine, as well as Washington, D.C. The Treasury Department called this a deliberate act of "partisan stonewalling," suggesting Democrats are denying their constituents crucial financial relief.RELATED: Blue-state ‘Grinches’ are stealing your tax relief, says Treasury Secretary Bessent Photo by Kevin Dietsch/Getty Images"This partisan stonewalling is a direct assault on the very families and workers liberal politicians claim to champion," the department stated. "By denying their residents access to these important tax cuts, these governors and legislators are forcing hardworking Americans to shoulder higher state tax burdens, robbing them of the relief they deserve and exacerbating the financial squeeze on low- and middle-income households."Thune echoed the department's concerns, saying Democrats are getting in the way of overdue tax relief for millions of hardworking Americans. "Affordability starts with more money in your pocket," Thune told Blaze News. "Republicans passed the Working Families Tax Cuts so that every working family, regardless of where they live, can have more money and new opportunities to get ahead.""It is outrageous that Democrat politicians would try to stop seniors, tipped workers, and people who work overtime from receiving this historic tax relief," Thune added. RELATED: ‘Very low-IQ person’: Jasmine Crockett launches Senate campaign with funny video that may give the GOP the last laugh Photo by Andrew Harnik/Getty Images Thune speculated that the Democrats' refusal to embrace even Trump's most popular policies is rooted in an inexplicable "blind allegiance" to high taxes, or just plain old Trump derangement syndrome."Whether they are doing it because of Trump derangement syndrome or a blind allegiance to high-tax policies, Democrat leaders like Governor Mills, Hochul, and Pritzker are making explicitly clear that Democrats prioritize high taxes and regulatory burdens over the financial well-being of the people they represent," Thune added, referring to Governors Janet Mills of Maine, Kathy Hochul of New York, and J.B. Pritzker of Illinois.Like Blaze News? Bypass the censors, sign up for our newsletters, and get stories like this direct to your inbox. Sign up here!
