Rep. Brandon Gill (R-Texas) has sparked controversy by demanding the deportation of Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.), despite Omar being a U.S. citizen. In a series of posts on X, Gill stated, “America would be a better place if Ilhan Omar were deported back to Somalia,” in response to a clip of Omar’s recent interview.
Omar, who came to the U.S. as a refugee from Somalia in 1995 and became a naturalized citizen at 17 in 2000, has been critical of America since before she was in Congress. Gill said what many Americans have thought, stating, “we should have never let Ilhan Omar into our country.”
The context of Gill’s comments comes from a video where Omar discussed what illegal alien Somalis should do if questioned by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). Omar, the first Somali-American in Congress, hoped to protect her people by revealing her true allegiances.

A spokesperson for Gill defended his stance, suggesting that Omar’s actions and statements raise questions about where her true allegiance lies, whether with the American public or with criminal illegal aliens from Somalia.
This call for deportation has infuriated the left, many of whom align with Omar’s perspectives as enemies of the United States. They believe sovereignty is superficial and would like nothing more than for America to be overrun by foreign powers.
Supporters of Gill see his statements as part of a broader critique of Omar’s policies and views, particularly regarding immigration and her perceived allegiances.
The controversy also reflects ongoing tensions within Congress, where the discourse around immigration, national loyalty, and the role of anti-American lawmakers continues to be polarized.

At Last, a Company With Integrity in the Gold IRA Industry
For several years, I’ve been vetting out precious metals companies in search of the best. I believe in gold and silver but it’s hard to find integrity in the Gold IRA industry. The vast majority operate with shady tactics and gigantic spreads that take advantage of Americans who simply want to protect their life’s savings.
I’ve found a handful that I like and I’ve worked with some of them. By no means would I “unrecommend” them because, again, I vetted them out and found them to be above the fold. Unfortunately, it isn’t hard to be better than the rest when the rest are so darn awful.
After years of searching, I finally found a company that truly operates with integrity. Augusta Precious Metals has three important attributes that set them far above the competition:
- Non-Commissioned Sales Team: I cannot stress how important and unique this is. With just about every other company in the Gold IRA industry, the sales teams make commission from every account they open. This means they steer their clients toward the gold and silver products with the highest commission. With Augusta Precious Metals, the team is solely focused on putting the best gold and silver for their clients into their IRA. They get paid to serve the best interests of the Gold IRA client, NOT their own commission pay.
- Incredibly Low Fees: Most Americans would be shocked if they knew the spread other Gold IRA companies charge. Augusta charges just 5% versus up to 45% elsewhere.
- No Pressure, No Gimmicks: There’s an understanding among most in the Gold IRA industry that fear and pressure is the way to go. Augusta Precious Metals takes a sober approach when working with clients because they hold integrity in the highest possible regard. This is why they don’t offer gimmicks like “free” or “bonus” silver. It’s also why they do not apply pressure tactics to get quick sales. Their educational and transparent approach to doing business is exceedingly rare in the Gold IRA industry.
