“I fail to see why any journalist felt the need to report on a shop owner making such a insignificant donation rather than to get them harassed.”
Following a hack of the GiveSendGo website revealing those that donated to the Canadian Freedom Convoy page, Rep. Ilhan Omar took to Twitter to defend a café that has been targeted after the owner’s name appeared amidst the leaked names.
“I fail to see why any journalist felt the need to report on a shop owner making such a insignificant donation rather than to get them harassed. It’s unconscionable and journalists need to do better,” Omar wrote on Wednesday evening.
Omar’s tweet inspired a retweet from staunch conservative Texas Senator Ted Cruz, who has been opposed to Omar, and she to him, in nearly every other area of politics.
