Ilhan Omar Mocks Elon Musk For Embarrassing Mistake: 'You Should Brush Up On Our Laws'
Ilhan Omar and Elon Musk.
Representative Ilhan Omar (Democrat, Minnesota) is trouncing Elon Musk for a pretty embarrassing mistake.
The progressive lawmaker was front and centre on Tuesday in footage that seemed to show her giving a seminar for Somali immigrants on how to respond to questions from Immigration and Customs Enforcement, which Musk shared Tuesday on X while condemning her actions as a crime.
“She is breaking the law,” Musk wrote of the video. “Literally. Outright.”
However, the South African billionaire failed to realise that offering such advice is legal — and that the footage he shared with his 216 million followers was misleadingly edited, according to Omar.
“Hey Elon,” the Democratic lawmaker wrote on Tuesday while quoting Musk’s viral post. “Every single person in this country deserves to know their rights. That’s legal. Maybe you should brush up on our laws given the fact you’re breaking them to steal American’s sensitive data.”
“PS,” she continued. “This video is manipulated, and I wasn’t even at the event shown.”
Elon Musk not only failed to realize that the video showed nothing illegal, but that it was altered.
