Brandon Gill posted on Thursday as a pull quote on X over a brooding profile shot of himself. \u201cCalling us racist doesn\u2019t work anymore,\u201d he added in the caption. <\/p>\n<div>\n<p>None of the irony of Gill\u2019s Thursday post was lost in the comments section. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>\u201cNo one is calling you racist as an attempt to scare you into shutting up,\u201d Omar\u2019s fellow Minnesota Rep. Shri Thanedar wrote. \u201cWe call you racist because you refer to Indian Americans as \u20187-Eleven workers\u2019.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Thanedar then shared a screenshot of one of Gill\u2019s earlier posts in which he had used the phrase that way. \u201cThe fact that you married an Indian American shows that you\u2019re just a grifter pandering to a racist base,\u201d he wrote. \u201cHow pathetic it must be to be that cheap.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Gill told then-mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani to \u201cgo back to the Third World\u201d last June over footage of the Muslim Indian-American New Yorker eating rice with his hands. Many pointed out at the time that Gill\u2019s wife, who\u2019s also of Indian descent, would have grown up eating the same way. Mamdani later secured a historic victory and is now the city\u2019s mayor.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/nationwideinterstatemovers.com\/?p=2767\">MS NOW Host Reveals \u2018Bizarre\u2019 Moment at Trump\u2019s Empty State Fair<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The elected Republican official has made his views clear on other occasions, too. He let podcaster Benny Johnson\u2019s claim that Somalis are innately less intelligent go unchallenged during an April appearance on the pundit\u2019s show, then argued migrants from the East African country are a \u201cnet drain\u201d on the U.S. economy. \u201cNot all cultures are equal,\u201d he told the host. <\/p>\n<p>Gill also picked a fight online with Mehdi Hasan last October, telling the British journalist to \u201cgo back to the U.K.\u201d if he wanted to \u201clive in a Muslim country,\u201d and claimed Muslims are arriving \u201cen masse\u201d to \u201cfundamentally transform the landscape of American public life.\u201d He later told Newsmax that \u201cIslam is a political ideology that is incompatible with the United States.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The congressman\u2019s attacks aren\u2019t always rhetorical. He circulated a petition among supporters last February to deport Democratic Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar, arguing the U.S. \u201cwould be a much better place if she were to be sent back to Somalia.\u201d Omar remains a U.S. citizen, as she has been for the past 26 years, after fleeing her homeland\u2019s civil war as a child. <\/p>\n<p>Journalist Zaid Jilani wrote that the real test of Gill\u2019s rhetoric comes later this year, during what already promises to be an uphill battle for Republicans to retain control of the House and Senate at midterms. \u201cLet\u2019s check back in November 2026 how much people like your brand of white nationalist politics,\u201d Jilani wrote. <\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/nationwideinterstatemovers.com\/?p=2765\">Trump Suck-Up Issues Bizarre Defense of Boss\u2019s $1 Billion Crypto Grift<\/a><\/p>\n<div>\n<p>The Daily Beast has contacted Gill\u2019s office for comment on this story. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A MAGA congressman\u2019s attempt to defend himself from accusations of racism has spectacularly backfired.
