Ilhan Omar claims Pence 'enabled the worst HIV outbreak in Indiana's history'

One of the more vocal anti-Trump lawmakers in D.C. is criticizing the president's decision to tap Vice President Mike Pence to head the government's team responding to the coronavirus.

Rep. Ilhan Omar slammed President Trump's decision to select Pence to lead the effort, citing his failure to respond quickly enough to an HIV outbreak that infected 126 people in rural Scott County, Indiana, in 2015.

"Let this sink in: Mike Pence, who enabled the worst HIV outbreak in Indiana’s history, is leading the coronavirus response," tweeted Omar on Thursday. "A real public health professional must step up to handle this. This is not a drill — lives are at stake."

It’s a fact. Pence’s policies were a disaster for Indiana.

Governors don’t initiate disease outbreaks. That job is for the CDC and US Military.

And Omar's brother gave her a blister and canker sore outbreak

Pence enabled people to have sex, says the brother marrying adulterer. Hmmm.

Northwest Woodsman: So are they trying to tell us that the VP is responsible for drug users having random unprotected sex? I’ll bet most were not Scandinavians. Obviously this issue wouldn’t call for a little personal restraint and responsibility.

Hey Omar, didn't you marry your brother ?

I'd say with Omar saying this, we are actually in good hands.

I thought it started when humans were having sex with monkeys in Somalia.

Coming in late with clean needle initiatives was not a good look. But it was an issue to learn from.

Ilhan Omar is scared right now. The government is cracking down on immigrants like her that have lied to get into the United States or have committed crimes after they arrived. Stripping their citizenship and most likely deporting them. I would like to be in the crowd when that brother marrying piece of trash is put on an airplane and deported.

He’s also the guy In 2000 that said smoking doesn’t kill people. He’s not the right man to lead this effort.
