Rep. Ilhan Omar is facing criticism from fellow Democrats for sharing the stage with far-left streamer Hasan Piker at a campaign event eight days before the midterm elections. Piker has faced backlash for his rhetoric, including remarks about the 9/11 attacks, Israel, and Jewish people. Omar's campaign defends the appearance by pointing to low early voting among younger voters, but some Democrats warn it could create divisions within the party and alienate moderate and Jewish voters.
