Democratic Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar butted heads on Wednesday with Rep. Nancy Mace’s, R-S.C., who remarked that "maybe Somalia can take you back" following Omar's comments about the assassination of Charlie Kirk.

The pair engaged in a back-and-forth on social media amid Mace's resolution to censure Omar and remove her from her committee assignments.

Omar has faced backlash from the right over an interview with the progressive news outlet Zeteo, where she criticized Kirk's past commentary and Republicans' reaction to the shooting.

She told the outlet, days after Kirk's assassination, that he had previously "downplayed slavery and what Black people have gone through in this country by saying Juneteenth shouldn't exist."
