About this listen
Ilhan Omar’s political career has always relied on two things: grievance amplification and bloc manipulation. The only thing that changed is the branding.
Where the traditional Black Leftist playbook once dominated, Omar localized it, substituting Somali identity politics into the same grievance machine. It worked, until it didn’t. Her power was predicated on a national Democratic regime that no longer exists in the form she needed.
When Biden collapsed under his own party’s weight and Kamala Harris lost, Omar’s ladder snapped. That matters because her long-term strategy wasn’t Congress. It was inevitability. A coalition presidency. A moral shield built from identity politics so thick that questions themselves could be framed as crimes.
That future died quietly. And when futures die, politicians panic.
Now place that panic next to Georgia.
