Professional golfer Phil Mickelson has been vocal on social media since the shooting of Charlie Kirk on September 10, and he's not happy with what one Democrat in Congress had to say about the conservative icon.
Mickelson posted on X on Saturday that he thinks Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) came to the United States illegally and should be deported to Somalia after Omar said that she thinks Kirk "spread hate" and "should be left in the dustbin of history."
"Ilhan spews hate every time she opens her mouth, she came here fraudulently and will hopefully be sent back to Somalia soon," Mickelson posted, just one day before Kirk was honored in a massive, six-hour memorial in Arizona where he lived with his family.

Mickelson's comments are similar to those of President Donald Trump, who has struck back at Omar over previous critical comments the Democrat and far-left member of The Squad made about him.
"Ilhan Omar's Country of Somalia is plagued by a lack of central Government control, persistent Poverty, Hunger, Resurgent Terrorism, Piracy, decades of Civil War, Corruption, and pervasive Violence," Trump wrote. "70% of the population lives in extreme Poverty, and widespread Food Insecurity.
"Somalia is consistently ranked among the World's Most Corrupt Countries, including Bribery, Embezzlement, and a Dysfunctional Government. All of this, and Ilhan Omar tells us how to run America!"
He then repeated an unsubstantiated story about Omar marrying her brother to gain citizenship in 2009.
Omar did marry Ahmed Nur Said Elmi in that year, and reports circulated that they were siblings, but nothing was ever proven.
She divorced Elmi and remarried her previous husband, Ahmed Abdisalan Hirsi, after establishing herself in the U.S., and the couple has three children.
She then divorced Hirsi and is now married to her political consultant, Tim Mynett.
Besides Omar and Kirk, Mickelson has boosted Sable Offshore Corp. in recent months and suggested that the company be allowed to extract oil and black tar seepage from the ocean floor for the benefit of both wildlife and the U.S. oil markets.
He has dropped the stock ticker $SOC on his socials and said Sable "is a win for EVERYONE including environmentalists!"
Of course, there has been backlash from his liberal followers, but Mickelson doesn't seem to care. It's nice to see boldness like that on the right where it hasn't been before.
