Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) is responding to the backlash she received for her comment about Christians singing on an airplane.

On Monday afternoon, Omar re-tweeted PhillyMag’s Ernest Owens, who shared her original comments and wrote, “A point was made.”

“And the original snowflakes had a complete and glorious meltdown,” Omar added.

On Sunday, Omar shared a video of Christians singing on a plane.

She wrote, “I think my family and I should have a prayer session next time I am on a plane. How do you think it will end?”

Meanwhile, Vernon Jones, a Republican House candidate in Georgia, accused her of hating Christians as he tweeted, “Why do you hate Christians, Ilhan?”

“If the freedom of religion we enjoy here in America disturbs you, feel free to pack your bags and head back to Somalia, Sudan, or wherever you’re from,” he added.

The flight was reportedly chartered and not a commercial flight.
