Lauren Boebert released a video Monday detailing her alleged fiery phone call with Democratic Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar after apologizing Friday to the Muslim community, saying Omar hung up the phone on her.<\/p>\n<p>Boebert released a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/tv\/CW3uGwJgeks\/?utm_medium=copy_link\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">video<\/a> on Instagram saying she reached out to Omar on Friday to discuss their differences after she made comments about Omar, which Omar called \u201cAnti-Muslim bigotry.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI had reached out to her Friday and three days later I was able to connect with her on the phone because I wanted to let her know directly that I had reflected on my previous remarks. Now as a strong Christian woman who values faith deeply, I never want anything I say to offend someone\u2019s religion. So I told her that. Even after I put out a public statement to that effect. She said that she still wanted a public apology, because what I had done wasn\u2019t good enough,\u201d Boebert said in the video.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo I reiterated to her what I had just said. She kept asking for a public apology so I told Ilhan Omar that she should make a public apology to the American people for her anti-American, anti-Semitic, anti-police rhetoric. She continued to press, and I continued to press back. And then, Representative Omar hung up on me. Rejecting an apology and hanging up on someone is part of cancel culture 101 and a pillar of the Democrat party,\u201d she continued.<\/p>\n<p><strong>WATCH:&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-captioned data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/tv\/CW3uGwJgeks\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\" readability=\"-7.5157894736842\"><\/blockquote>\n<p>The original incident stems from a <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/patriottakes\/status\/1463903881553920004\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">video<\/a> that showed Boebert telling her supporters in Colorado about an alleged recent elevator ride with Omar.
