President Trump called on Representative Ilhan Omar, Democrat of Minnesota, to "IMMEDIATELY resign" and accused her of using a fake name, according to The Hill, which reported the demand in a Truth Social post on Thursday evening.

The Hill reported that Trump asked that House Speaker James Michael Johnson be told that her party had conceded her seat. The excerpt of that report includes the name Ilhan Nur Said Elmi before it breaks off.

The Hill's headline describes the president as suggesting that Omar resign, while its summary says he called on her to do so. The excerpt available for this report does not show the full text of the post.

Fox News reported that Trump seized on reporting about Omar's birth name and revived longstanding allegations involving her former husband. The same report describes Omar calling Trump a "creep" in response. The Hill places the demand in a Thursday evening post and emphasizes the Speaker and the seat, while Fox News emphasizes reporting on her birth name and allegations involving her former husband.

Neither excerpt states whether the House Speaker has responded to the request, or whether any formal step toward removing Omar from her seat has been taken. The sources available for this report are brief summaries, so the full articles and posts may contain additional detail not reported here.

Sources: The Hill: Trump suggests Omar resign ‘immediately’ over ‘fake name’; Fox News: Ilhan Omar calls Trump ‘creep’ as president revives ‘fake name,’ marriage allegations.
