Tossed Salad
Timothy Birdnow
So Ilhan Omar was sprayed with apple cider vinegar by some nut job who in fact does belong in jail. It's a strange substance to "attack" her with - a pie would be more comical and most especially coconut cream. But then I suppose apple cider vinegar is apt; she is a bad apple and after her word salad I suspect the attacker was just hungry and wanted to add a little dressing...
Funny; there have been many instances of actual assassination attempts on Republicans, like the knife attack on Lee Zeldin a couple of years ago, and the media largely yawned. But throw vinegar on a crooked Somali and it may as well be the Kennedy assassination.
As I said, this guy belongs in jail and I hope they throw the book at him. But there is a comical element to it all for sure. (Not sure why someone would risk their freedom and maybe their life to spray salad dressing on a chick, but there you have it. The guy must be mentally unbalanced. Actually I suspect he's working for Omar, or someone who is also working with Omar, but that's just speculation.)
Of course he obviously wasn't shooting for sauer kraut; Omar isn't German, as far as anyone can tell.

As I noted in a comment to a previous post on this subject: this incident has a lot of similarity to the Jussie Smollett case in that it was geared to gin up a lot of sympathy for the "victim." If the guy had thrown a cream pie in her face the outrage would have been there but nobody (well, very few people) would have been concerned about any real damage to Omar's lovely face. But use a substance like vinegar, which wasn't obvious, and everybody would be worried that it might be something dangerous, like acid, even; and Omar's heroic by not seeking medical attention (of course she didn't -- she knew what the stuff was all along).
And of course she'd contracted to pay him to do the deed. I just hope she DID pay him before he got nabbed by the cops!
I'll reiterate what I said before: I wish there had been bacon grease or some other non-kosher substance in it.

My thoughts exactly Dana. This thing smells very bad. Yeah; it's much like the Smollett incident.
Yeah; a little bacon grease would have served much better.
BTW that guy was unemployed and disabled and probably desperate for money. I too think he was paid to do it. As you say a pie in the face would have been laughed off,
