Liberals are united by hatred but they have so much pent up rage that they turn on each other at the drop of a hat. Muslim Rep. Ilhan Omar is super pissed at her fellow “Loon Squad” members Alexandria Ocasio Cortez and Ayanna “the Black Skinhead” Pressley for taking the COVID-19 vaccine. Whenever anyone of them is criticized they all scream that it’s a racist attack on empowered women of color, so whatever this is has to be some kind of racially-charged assault, right?
AOC got the vaccine, claiming it was of vital national security interest to protect her:

The Black Skinhead also got the vaccine…
“It is up to our research and medical institutions, our elected officials, and our collective public health response to make amends and earn the trust of communities of color as we distribute this vaccine and rebuild.”https://t.co/kxohPTBppO

…despite her reservations that she revealed on CNN:
“So I do want to acknowledge that I had to overcome, you know, some of those distrust issues myself — the medical community exacting ostensibly medical apartheid on black Americans, on indigenous people … on our most marginalized communities. They have violated the trust, and that’s very real. And so I wanted to set an example. I trust Dr. Kenzie. I consulted with my husband and my health care provider, which is what I encourage others to do when making their own very personal decision,” said Pressley.
But Ilhan Omar thinks it’s f*cked up that her fellow Squad members got the vaccine, as reported by The NY Post:
Progressive Rep. Ilhan Omar on Sunday called it “shameful” that young, healthy lawmakers — such as fellow “Squad” member Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez — are receiving the coronavirus vaccine before American seniors and front-line workers.
The Minnesota congresswoman has joined a growing number of lawmakers who have vowed not to take the Pfizer miracle drug out of concerns they are jumping the line.
“It’s now clear that we don’t have enough vaccines for everyone and there is shortage of supply, we have to prioritize those who need it most. That’s why it’s disturbing to see members be 1st to get vaccine while most frontline workers, elderly and infirm in our districts, wait,” said Omar.
Shameful is marrying your own brother, so maybe Omar isn’t the go-to exert on this stuff.
But she did slam her own “Loon Squad” which we know is an act of racial violence. Where is Rasida Tlaib on this? Is it the 2 Muslims vs. the 2 morons?
Actually, I found something that may explain why Omar is refusing to get the vaccine and it has nothing to do with her “empathy for the elderly and frontline workers. Apparently Muslims can’t take the vaccine because it’s made our of pork products. The AP reports:
In October, Indonesian diplomats and Muslim clerics stepped off a plane in China. While the diplomats were there to finalize deals to ensure millions of doses reached Indonesian citizens, the clerics had a much different concern: Whether the COVID-19 vaccine was permissible for use under Islamic law.
As companies race to develop a COVID-19 vaccine and countries scramble to secure doses, questions about the use of pork products — banned by some religious groups — has raised concerns about the possibility of disrupted immunization campaigns.
Pork-derived gelatin has been widely used as a stabilizer to ensure vaccines remain safe and effective during storage and transport.
So this whole Loon Squad cat fight is over something akin to AOC eating a McRib in Omar’s face. It offends her Muslim sensibilities.
