Vice President Mike Pence said in a recent interview that Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) has “no place” on the House Foreign Affairs Committee and has called on the Democratic leadership to oust her.

During an interview with Fox News’s “Fox & Friends“ that aired on May 10, Pence was asked about his view on the freshman congresswoman—who has made headlines over the past several months for controversial statements.
