Radical Democrat Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) is demanding that the United States surrender all nuclear weapons.
Omar made the demands while marking the 80th anniversary of the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
The far-left congresswoman took to the House floor to call for U.S. support for the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons (TPNW).

She continued by declaring that America must lead the global charge toward disarmament.
