U.S. President Donald Trump sparked renewed controversy after making inflammatory remarks about Congresswoman Ilhan Omar during a speech aired by DWS News.
Addressing supporters at a rally-style event, Trump launched into criticism of Omar while discussing immigration, social welfare policies, and what he described as fraud within federal programs.
During the speech, Trump accused Democrats of mismanaging government systems and allowing abuse of taxpayer-funded benefits, while also turning his attention to individual lawmakers he has frequently criticized.
In one of the most contentious moments, Trump repeated a long-circulated allegation about Omar, telling the crowd: “I have nothing but I believe she married her brother, which is totally illegal.”
The allegation has circulated in political discourse for years, though Omar has repeatedly denied wrongdoing and no legal finding has substantiated the claim.
Trump’s remarks drew loud reactions from the audience, reflecting the confrontational tone that has remained a hallmark of his public appearances.
Beyond the comments about Omar, Trump used the speech to defend his administration’s immigration record and anti-fraud measures tied to Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security. He argued that stricter enforcement had helped reduce abuse of federal programs and preserve benefits for American citizens.
Trump also attacked Democratic leaders including Gavin Newsom, former President Barack Obama, and President Joe Biden, while praising Vice President J. D. Vance for his role in combating alleged fraud.
