Teh exchange occurred after a Daily Caller reporter asked about the appropriateness of Democratic representatives traveling to meet abrego Garcia, who is incarcerated in El Salvador. Omar&#8217;s response escalated the situation, with her reiterating the profanity when pressed for clarification. The visits by several democrats, including Sen. Chris Van hollen and Reps.Yassamin Ansari, Maxine Dexter, and Maxwell Frost, have drawn criticism from both Republicans and some Democrats. House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries has avoided direct comments on whether these trips were a &#8220;mistake.&#8221; The Trump management previously deported Abrego Garcia despite a court order protecting him from such action due to threats he faced in El Salvador, and recent Supreme Court rulings have mandated efforts to facilitate his return to the U.S.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-header-search-button-mob dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search\" aria-labelledby=\"td-header-search-button\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search-inner\">\n<form method=\"get\" class=\"tdb-search-form\" action=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><\/form>\n<div class=\"tdb-aj-search\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/#\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Search\" class=\"tdb-head-search-btn dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<h1 class=\"tdb-title-text\">Ilhan Omar tells reporter to &lsquo;f*** off&rsquo; when asked about Democratic support for Abrego Garcia<\/h1>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-title-line\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div id=\"Brid_2105101\" class=\"tpd-featured-video bridtv\"><\/div>\n<p>Rep. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/ilhan-omar\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Ilhan Omar<\/a> (D-MN) told a reporter to &ldquo;f*** off&rdquo; when asked about <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/democratic-party\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Democratic<\/a> support for Kilmar Abrego Garcia, an alleged MS-13 gang member who was deported to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/el-salvador\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">El Salvador<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>A <em>Daily Caller<\/em> reporter asked Omar if she thought it was appropriate for Democrats to travel to El Salvador to meet with Abrego Garcia, who is being detained in a Salvadoran prison.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"recommended-stories\">\n<h2>Recommended Stories<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/campaigns\/congressional\/3395586\/democrats-reintroduce-equality-act-sexual-preference-gender-identity-protected-classes\/\">Democrats reintroduce bill to make sexual preference and gender identity protected classes<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/house\/3394966\/house-republicans-vote-rule-hinder-democrats-investigations-trump-administration\/\">House Republicans vote to hinder Democrats&#8217; ability to investigate Trump administration<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/campaigns\/congressional\/3394549\/angie-craig-launches-campaign-minnesota-senate-seat\/\">Angie Craig launches campaign for open Minnesota Senate seat<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"article-paywall\">\n<p>&ldquo;I think you should f*** off,&rdquo; Omar said.
