Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) got a fundraising boost this week—she was ‘attacked’ during a town hall event in Minneapolis, but an individual, who supposedly supports Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, decided to interrupt the event and spray the leftist congresswoman with a liquid that was determined to be apple cider vinegar. It looked like the most shambolic false flag operation ever, but we’re learning a bit more about vinegar man as he’s been formally charged by the Justice Department.
The suspect’s name is Anthony Kazmierczak, 55, and he’s supposedly a Trump supporter based on his social media activity. He might have leftist kids, but that’s immaterial right now. Federal officials have charged him with “forcibly assaulting, opposing, impeding, intimidating, and assaulting an officer and employee of the United States” (via NBC News):
Anthony Kazmierczak faces a count alleging that he “forcibly assaulted, opposed, impeded, intimidated and officer and employee of the United States” while she was engaged in official duties.
The affidavit alleges that Kamierczak told a close associate years ago that he said, “Somebody should kill that b----,” in reference to Omar.
After Omar called for Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem to resign at the meeting Tuesday, Kamierczak appeared to say, “She’s not resigning. You’re splitting Minnesotans apart” after spraying her, according to the FBI.
"According to Representative Omar, the liquid stained her clothes and may have reached her face and right eye," an affidavit the FBI filed in support of the criminal complaint said.
Omar's office said Wednesday that the substance was apple cider vinegar.
"The town hall meeting was temporarily disrupted and delayed. Representative Omar, though visibly shaken, continued with the town hall and later posted on X that she was okay," the affidavit said.
Omar on Wednesday blamed the attack on Trump's frequent verbal attacks against her.
“What the facts have shown since I’ve gotten into elected office is that every time the president of the United States has chosen to use hateful rhetoric to talk about me and the community that I represent, my death threats skyrocket,” Omar said at a news conference.
He was booked on third-degree assault by Minneapolis police. It’s bizarre: he sits there chugging a massive bottle of water and then uses a syringe with apple cider vinegar. It’s random as hell, which has drawn right accusations that this was staged. Ms. Omar is under investigation over her financials. The event led to fundraising and a massive microscope on her, which is what she craved, and it looked like they picked the most shangad man in the city to carry out a cider attack.
Everything about this story stinks.
