Ilhan “some people did something” Omar got Memorial Day completely wrong in a tweet she posted earlier today.

Omar tweeted “On Memorial Day we honor the heroic men and women who served our country. We owe them more than our gratitude – they have more than earned access to quality mental health services, job opportunities, housing assistance, and they benefits they were promised.”

The tweet is real, however Omar has since deleted it after getting mocked for not realizing this wasn’t Veterans Day.

Um… I don’t exactly think that our heroes who we’re remembering today will be needing any of those services.

I’m not surprised that one of the most America hating members of Congress doesn’t know what Memorial Day is about. https://t.co/xZMTEovbUG pic.twitter.com/BQPd5rYZmR

She doesn’t know the meaning of Memorial Day? I couldn’t be less surprised. https://t.co/aPMcCaO58u

Again, it’s Memorial Day.

This is some ham-fisted hyper-partisan ridiculousness.

Just say, “thank you,” and leave your bigoted ideology for another day. https://t.co/0pZxIMcF3C
