Ilhan Omar Demands United Nations Take Over America’s Border Crisis

OMAR: "Listen, folks, we're really losing our moral high ground. I say this in committee hearings, I say this at every single speech. It doesn't make any sense for us to be committing these kind of human rights violations, to have these policies in the way that we interact with migrants and asylum seekers. If we want to continue to be the kind of country that condemns countries in Africa or Asia or Latin American countries for its treatment of refugees and asylum seekers. So we should do what any country does by appealing this situation in a serious way. So we have to bring in the United Nations high commissioner on refugees, an agency that has the expertise and training to handle massive flows of refugees humanely."
