Rep. Ilhan Omar told a cheering crowd at a Bernie Sanders campaign rally at the University of Minnesota’s Williams Arena on Sunday she is “beyond honored and excited for a president who will fight against western imperialism.”

“Here in Minnesota, we don’t just welcome refugees - we send them to Congress,” the Somalian born lawmaker proudly bragged. “Right now, achieving that universal dream feels more out of reach than it ever has in my lifetime.”

Members of the audience began chanting “Lock him up!” without being silenced or discouraged by Omar or Sanders, which has some critics wondering about the outrage Trump received from the press when his supporters cheered, “lock her up.”

Omar, who has been called out for her anti-Semitic statements in the past, made sure to include Sanders’ faith in her speech.

“I am proud to stand with the son of a Jewish refugee who survived genocide,” Omar said before introducing Sanders to the stage. “The acknowledgment of pain and suffering is personal for both of us. The fight for human rights is undeniable. And when we recognize injustices of the past and present, whether it is genocide against Jewish people, Armenians or Rwandans or Bosnians or Native Americans or more.”

The Bernie Sanders rally had approximately 10,140 people in attendance.
