Rep. Tom Emmer, R-Minn., sharply criticized "Squad" Rep. Ilhan Omar as a "complete fraud" on Saturday, while discussing her criticism of fraud investigations and scrutiny over a major discrepancy in her financial disclosures.
"Not only should her accountant be fired, but that girl should be fired and she does not deserve to be in Congress," Emmer told "The Big Weekend Show."
"Quite frankly, if she is discovered to be involved in any of this fraud personally, that she benefited from it, even by her actions of promoting it and trying to resist investigations, she should be held accountable to the fullest extent," he added.
Emmer’s remarks specifically zeroed in on the controversy surrounding Omar’s financial disclosures, which recently drew scrutiny after a filing appeared to dramatically overstate her net worth.
