CAIR to Protest President Trump Minnesota Visit Monday With #IStandWithIlhan Rally

President Trump is visiting Minnesota on Monday for a business roundtable discussion in the town of Burnsville, located just south of Minneapolis. The Muslim rights group CAIR is planning to hold a rally in support of Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) whose dismissive comment last month about the September 11, 2001 Islamist terror attack on the United States, “Some people did something”, was the subject of a video posted Friday night by Trump that was sparked cries of incitement by Omar’s supporters.

Omar made her 9/11 comment at a CAIR meeting in California on March 23.

CAIR-Minnesota announced the protest on Facebook:

As 45 visits MN on Monday, we will collectively host a peaceful rally outside Nuss Truck and Equipment in Burnsville starting at 11:30am (anticipated time of arrival.)

Please come out and show your solidarity for all of our communities that this administration has affected and impacted.

This past week 45 has attacked Congresswoman Ilhan Omar by inciting violence towards her, her family and community.

Our purpose is to stand in unity with Rep. Omar, and voice our collective values and ideals.
#WeStandWithIlhan
#IStandWithIlhan
We (Minnesotans) Stand in Unity for:
– Love
– Respect
– Equality
– Justice
– Democracy
