Oh, Ilhan Omar. The gift that keeps on giving to conservative bloggers everywhere. Just when you think the Minnesota congresswoman –, you know, the one who once quipped that "some people did something" about 9/11, couldn't top her greatest hits of controversy, here she comes again, playing sugar mama to a group that's basically Hamas's D.C. hype squad.
According to fresh Federal Election Commission filings dug up by Fox News Digital (shoutout to CB Cotton for keeping tabs on these campus clown shows), Omar's reelection war chest, Ilhan for Congress, dropped $1,559.25 on "event tickets" back in September to the Palestine House of Freedom. That's the snappily named "Dar Alhurriya" in Arabic, a nonprofit squatting just a stone's throw from the Capitol Dome. Good grief, nothing says "bipartisan outreach" like bankrolling outfits dedicated to Israel's demise from your campaign slush fund.
Their website is a real charmer.
The group bills itself as "dedicated to the liberation of Palestine" and "the dismantling of apartheid in Palestine and the establishment of a free, democratic state from the river to the sea." (Yeah, that oldie-but-goodie slogan that somehow always skips the part about Israel's right to exist.) They hammer home that Israel is "operating as an apartheid state." Their big mission is to "embark on an aggressive educational campaign targeting everyone from lawmakers, staffers, the media, to the general public" to "show how dismantling apartheid and establishing a free democratic Palestine from the River to the Sea with equal rights, is the path to peace and will benefit all parties involved."
Peace through... everyone you don't like dead? Got it.
But wait, there's more! This outfit made waves earlier this year by throwing a June gala fundraiser for none other than Birzeit University, the Palestinian school that's earned the oh-so-flattering nickname "Terrorist University" thanks to its student council being a Hamas love-in.

Proceeds from the shindig, cheekily titled "From Birzeit and Beyond: How academia shapes resistance and resilience," all funneled straight to Birzeit, per the event flyer. And Omar's crew all chipped in for tickets to... something. Details fuzzy, but hey, it's the thought that counts, right?
Birzeit's student elections? A Hamas sweepstakes since the '90s, with the terror group's Al-Wafaa bloc racking up wins in 2022 and 2023. Post-2023 triumph, none other than Ismail Haniyeh, Hamas's bigwig politico until the IDF turned him into a Tehran footnote last year, got all moist and couldn't contain his glee. Chatting with the Middle East Monitor, he gushed: "The second message is that the bloc has proven its ability to adapt to changes, overcome complexities, and fill the void created by arrests, martyrdom, or deportation." He tacked on that Hamas is "unbreakable" in its homeland and that it will confront the "occupier, oppression and terrorism."

Not Haniyeh's first rodeo either. In 2017, another Hamasshole mouthpiece sent congrats to the Birzeit kiddos for their electoral enthusiasm.
Campus vibes at Birzeit had parades with terrorist fans strutting in fake suicide vests and rocket props, courtesy of Memri TV footage. Charming stuff. No wonder Reps. Elise Stefanik (R-NY) and Tim Walberg (R-MI), the Education and Workforce Committee chair, fired off a scathing letter to Harvard on Sept. 29, blasting the Ivy League eggheads for dragging their feet on ditching their old Birzeit partnership. They nailed it: Birzeit is "an institution whose student body overwhelmingly supports Hamas" and a school that "explicitly endorses a U.S. designated terrorist organization." Harvard, in a rare flash of spine this spring, vowed not to renew the deal after an "internal review," per The Harvard Crimson. About time.
Look, Omar's no stranger to the hot seat. She was the first Muslima in Congress back in 2018. But she's also the queen of cringeworthy zingers, like claiming Israel "has hypnotized the world" or shrugging off 9/11 as "some people did something." Just last month, a House censure push over her digs at Charlie Kirk fizzled out. And now this?

Campaign cash is flowing to a group cozying up to a Hamas petri dish because, you know, 'those Jews' and stuff.
The Squad's main anti-Semite keeps proving she's more interested in "resistance" rallies than, say, actual constituent service. If this is the path to "peace," count me out, I'll stick with the side that doesn't high-five terrorists. Your move, Ilhan.

If you like Brain Flushings and want to Buy Me a Coffee, I would appreciate it, as it supports my work. Obviously, there is no pressure but I certainly wouldn't stop you.
