The comments came the same day a man sprayed US Representative Ilhan Omar with a syringe of unknown liquid at a Minneapolis town hall meeting, where she called for curbing the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown.

Omar continued the town hall for about 25 more minutes after the man was ushered out by security, saying she would not be intimidated.

I’m a survivor so this small agitator isn’t going to intimidate me from doing my work.
