Ilhan Omar, a Somali-born American politician, referred to President Donald Trump as the 'pedophile protection party’s president' on Friday, October 30, 2026. This remark came in response to Trump's call for her seat to be declared vacant due to allegations of using a fake identity to secure her election as a U.S. representative.

Omar asserted that her name had always been Ilhan Omar and that she had never been involved in any fake identity scandal.

Omar criticized Trump for using the DOJ to spread right-wing conspiracy theories, calling it the most corrupt in American history. She posted a screenshot of Trump's social media post on X, highlighting her response to his allegations.
