Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) was mocked on social media Monday over a resurfaced video where she referred to World War II as “World War Eleven.”
In the Jan. 22, 2025, clip, Omar, flanked by other congressional Democrats, calls for the repeal of the Alien Enemies Act of 1798, which President Trump invoked to quickly deport suspected Venezuelan gang members in the country illegally.
“The last time the Alien Enemies Act was invoked, it was used to detain and deport German, Japanese, Italian immigrants during World War Eleven,” the far-left “Squad” congresswoman declared, reading from prepared remarks.
Omar quickly corrected herself after the verbal blunder.
“Oh … two … sorry,” she said, chuckling.
Trump has previously criticized the Minnesota Democrat’s intelligence, referring to her as “Low IQ Ilhan Omar” in a Truth Social post earlier this year, and several social media users hurled similar insults at Omar after watching the brutal gaffe.
“I can’t believe this dummy is in Congress,” read an X post from Libs of TikTok, which included a clip of Omar’s misstep.
“She learned history at the Quality Learing Center,” MAGA influencer Sarah Sizzle wrote on X, referring to the infamous sign at a now-shuttered Minnesota day care center that was at the center of a fraud scandal last year. --->READ MORE HERE

Conservative commentators and lawmakers mocked Rep Ilhan Omar for the Roman numeral mix-up
Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., is being roasted online for a brutal resurfaced video of her misreading World War II as "World War Eleven" during a Capitol Hill news conference.
Omar, the first Somali American member of Congress, made the error during her opening remarks at a Democratic news conference last year on the reintroduction of the Neighbors Not Enemies Act. The bill, which did not pass, was aimed at opposing President Donald Trump’s immigration enforcement, particularly his invocation of the Alien Enemies Act.
The congresswoman railed that the "last time the Alien Enemies Act was invoked it was used to detain and deport German, Japanese, Italian immigrants during World War Eleven."
She quickly corrected herself, saying, "Oh, two," and laughing.
As Omar’s district faces increased scrutiny amid a massive federal fraud probe largely involving the Somali immigrant community, the resurfaced clip is circulating online. The mistake drew mockery, including from Sen. Mike Lee, R-Utah, who teased Omar, saying, "‘World War Eleven’ … Yes, that was deadly."
In a separate post, Lee continued to rib Omar, sharing a side-by-side of her error alongside another video of her calling Trump voters "idiots." The video showed Omar saying, "It’s become really hard to have an intellectual debate with any of these people," and asserting that "the dumbing of the United States has arrived, because how else do we get a Trump presidency again?" --->READ MORE HEREFOLLOW LINK BELOW TO A RELEVANT STORY:
