Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) attacked Minneapolis police officers over the weekend, blaming law enforcement for the sustained spike in violent crime in
inneapolis by claiming they have failed to fulfill their job duties.

What are the details?

Omar's head-scratching claim was made during a town hall event on Saturday.

"What we must also recognize is that the reduction in policing currently in our city and the lawlessness that is happening is due to two things," Omar claimed.
The far-left Democrat said the aforementioned lawlessness should be blamed on police officers not doing their jobs and a lack of accountability over law enforcement.

"One, the police have chosen to not fulfill their oath of office and to provide the public safety they are owed to the citizens they serve. Right? It's documented," Omar claimed. "But even before that it was documented: The Minneapolis Police Department is the most dysfunctional police department in our state and probably in the country."​​​​​​​
