Barack Obama: “We celebrate our commitment to the rule of law and to upholding the fundamental principles enshrined in our founding…”

I’m going to insist that we can do better than we’re doing right now.

The effort, he said, “should outrage all Americans, regardless of how they feel about Congresswoman Omar’s political views.”

Now the Administration is actively trying to deport Congresswoman Omar, seemingly based solely on the unsubstantiated theory that she was actually 18 when her father was naturalized, and therefore is not a citizen.

The fact that any president, or any administration, is willing to engage in such transparent efforts to intimidate someone should outrage all Americans, regardless of how they feel about Congresswoman Omar’s political views.
