An update on the crackpot GOPer who was going after Ilhan Omar: [View all]
Republican Danielle Stellas campaign to take down Minnesota Congresswoman Ilhan Omar has hit a bit of a snag. There is currently a warrant out for her arrest after she failed to appear for a court hearing on Tuesday morning.
She was supposed to answer to charges that she had attempted to shoplift a few thousand dollars worth of stuff from an Edina Target. According to court documents, she told police she couldnt remember what had happened in the store due to her post-traumatic stress disorder....
Stella started making headlines earlier this summer by hinting at support for the Q-anon conspiracy group, writing nonstop missives against Omar, crashing an event at Seward Café (and posting her subsequent ejection on Instagram), and managing to weird out even diehard conservative podcasters Chuck Woolery and Mark Young.
Neither she nor her lawyer were immediately available to comment. Prosecutor Lori Schwartz declined to speak on the matter. Meanwhile, Stella's Twitter feed has been active all day with the usual President Donald Trump retweets and posts about ANTIFA, Omar, and other Democratic reps.
